Okay, I'm going to try to address these problems one by one. I'll say, first of all, you have very... complex... systems. I'm honestly impressed at the stability of some of them  :lol: Holl around Etern was stirred up a bit, and the planet Nomad inside the Viet and Nistrader system I was OK with bei...

It keeps throwing things out of orbit. With my first test, the orbits were shuffled slightly, but in my second test, a moon that was in a stable orbit around a planet had been flung off.

Is there any way you can give me the .simulation file you are converting so I can check it out?

Tried running it and it's missing vcruntime140d.dll, msvcp140d.dll, vcruntime140_1d.dll and ucrtbased.dll. Why am I getting these problems? An update from Visual Studio must have changed some settings and the .exe wasn't compiled with the proper .dll files included. I recompiled and hopefully have ...

It doesn't use any fancy headers that I haven't used before, so I'll have to look into it. I hope not everyone is having that problem. What kind ...

This is amazing! How'd you pull it off?

Thank you. Basically I just got restless and learned the math behind it. It still isn't perfect but I didn't want to wait for SE to update, so I did what I could. 

I've been pulling my hair out since this was suggested a few months ago trying to do this, and I've created something that works. I'm (mostly) happy with the result, and it's super easy to use. Here is the completed file converter:  US2 to SE Converter 1.1.zip 2/27/20 - fixed runtime problem, also r...

Okay I created something in the spacecraft editor and got it to work as a buildable spacecraft in-game, but I've tried everything I can think of and I can't get it to show up as the model for a space station. Still trying to create space stations, anyone know what folder I'm supposed to put the mod...

If I remember correctly, they technically still work but will be converted into the new planet classification system.  Detailed information can be found here:  http://spaceengine.org/news/blog170924/ But essentially, the new classes are Terra, Ferria, Aquaria, Carbonia, Jupiter, and Neptune. The lin...

Well, to be more specific how complete is it in terms of simulating the entire known universe and being up to date with exoplanetary data?  I haven't tried it in a pretty long while. I can't tell if this is a rhetorical question, so I'll answer honestly. US2 is pretty sophisticated in simulating th...

Also is there any way to get the star solver to generate moons for imported planets?. I've played around with getting the star solver to do things before, and as far as I know, it's not possible. The SE star solver only seems to generate things if there is NO information provided. If you use a .sc ...

Between yesterday and today, I laid the groundwork for code that will be useful when/if that update is ever released. If you're interested, you can check it out here:  https://github.com/SethFusion/US2-to-SE-Converter/releases The output it creates isn't actually useful to Space Engine yet, because ...

hey, I don't see an option to make a new thread anywhere, so I will just add my question to this topic - how do I start SE in VR mode? when I download the game from this website and start it, it only plays in desktop mode. is there nother step to make it fully work in VR? thank you If you downloade...

 but there's no way to make a new co-ordinate origin in SE You know I've wondered about this myself with my own planet generator. I always thought it would be cool to generate SE systems around a point and would love to make that an option, but I don't see how to do it without some serious maths. R...

So you basically created your own custom night sky for an RPG setting? Wow, that is commitment. I'm impressed  :lol: evildrganymede: There must be some object in that file which is somehow critically important for the game's stability so that it'd crash if deleted, but I couldn't figure out which on...

Looks like US2 just stores the "state vectors" of each body. This makes sense, because US2 is a physics simulator. SE also have physics simulation, used for ships, thus have internal functions to convert state vector to orbital elements and back. I can implement a new way to define object...
