Troubleshooting and bug reports - SpaceEngine 0.9.8.0

I rechecked the NVidia driver site, and 340.52 are the latest available drivers.

Troubleshooting and bug reports - SpaceEngine 0.9.8.0

Meanwhile is there any way to put a cap on FPS? I find there is no lag when the FPS is 10-15, but sometimes the program zooms up to 300 FPS.  I'd like to cap the FPS to 15, like you can do with Stellarium and that gets rid of lag and high CPU usage.

Troubleshooting and bug reports - SpaceEngine 0.9.8.0

I've gotten it to where the program starts quickly (less than 1 min) and there are no errors on start up, but the program always crashes upon exit, I have to use ctrl-alt-delete to get rid of the process and restart it.

I will go check about the drivers, but I remember them saying they ...

Question, if I change settings and later on Visual C crashes, will the new settings be saved or will the program revert to default settings?

I believe 340.52 were the last nVidia drivers released for XP 32 bit. I don't think newer ones are available.
Well, I tried to land on a star in fullscreen mode and I got a Visual C runtime error. I have dual LCD monitors, each is 1280x1024, but it won't work at full screen although it does seem to ...

Thanks for the help! Right now I am just getting the feel of the program and trying to fix these lag issues :( The stars I go to also seem to blink in and out, and when I go full screen everything disappears and all I see is black. Right now, I keep the window setting to 1024x768 and that seems to ...

Also something is happening that is causing the stars I visit to blink in and out, weird. I increased the window resolution to 1024x768.  For some reason when I go to fullscreen everything disappears and all I see is black?

I'm a new member and just downloaded the program. I also have Starry Night Pro Plus 6.4 and 7.5, Stellarium 1.5, Celestia, and a few others. Although SNPP takes up a lot more room, it looks like Space Engine is by far a more complex program! I have a question- is there any way to update the list of ...

Troubleshooting and bug reports - SpaceEngine 0.9.8.0

Hi, I am wondering what can be done to speed up the simulator and remove lags. I am near the bottom end of the specs necessary, but cannot update at this time because this motherboard is ancient. I have a Core 2 Quad Q6600 CPU (4 cores x 2.4 GHz), 2 GB of DDR2 RAM, Nvidia 8800 GTS 640MB 112 SP GPU ...
