What are the best visual mods to pair with the new Parallax 2.0 mod

@blackrack's True Volumetric Clouds (available on Patreon) for beautiful clouds (comes bundled with Scatterer and Eve-Redux) will give you very nice clouds and atmospheric scattering as well as more realistic water.

@blackrack's Deferred Rendering (also on Patreon) will give you very nice and better performing lighting (and replicates what @Papa_Joe's Planetshine does, though you can still get Planetshine to further customize that particular effect).

@Shadowmage's TUFX will give you very nice post processing visual effects.  I personally use the profile for it included with True Volumetric Clouds, but @ballisticfox0's Neutral TUFX Config is super nice in my opinion, too.

@Icecovery's Shaddy/Shabby will give you nice visuals for solar panels and parachutes (dependent on what part mods you use).

@Nertea's Restock will update the models and textures of the stock parts and is always highly recommended.

@UltraJohn's HudReplacer coupled with @zapsnh's ZTheme (and @Squeaky's navball texture) will update your HUD to a more modern and clean look.

I'm sure there are a million other options you could try, but for me, these are the "go to's".

And, to nitpick, parallax 2.0 is not new. The new version is Parallax Continued

I should have also added Distant Object Enhancement (currently managed by @Lisias) which handles sky dimming where appropriate, visibility of, well, distant objects (satellites in orbit from the surface, for example), etc.  Adds alot to your visual experience.

Thanks for the mention

Someone considering my little navball texture as one of their go to's has made my day.
