Thank you, our settings are already very similar lol. You did not change any of the saturation settings in the .cfg file, Jack?

Thanks Jack. The only differences I see in the graphics settings is you have a higher setting for aurora, I have MSAA turned on, I have a slightly faster loading speed, and a lower black hole rendering quality.
No. No.
hmmm that sounds a lot like when res-ing down an astrophotograph you get the same kind of effect.Not an expert here, but I think the star saturation/look may be attributable to the lower screen resolution you are using compared to JackDole. Your individual pixels are going to be larger, and you can't make a star look smaller than 1 pixel.
No help at all with your other problems, I'm afraid, I haven't bothered with the 0.9.8.0e patch. (I never spend any time anywhere near Earth in S.E. I don't think I've ever even been in our own solar system in S.E.)

Perhaps that's by design. How can you see an eclipse if it's cloudy?
If SE had relativistic effects you would see stars zipping by through a highly distorted view of the universe, at least up through 1c, at 1c it would get stranger.
Yes, of course. But then SE would need a separate clock for every object moving at a different speed.If SE had relativistic effects you would see stars zipping by through a highly distorted view of the universe, at least up through 1c, at 1c it would get stranger.
Yeah I just select Goto and I get that whizzing effect of the warp drive that Doc was talking about.Perhaps that's by design. How can you see an eclipse if it's cloudy?
Oh... and travelling at 1c is still slow given the size of the Universe. Think about it — try travelling from Earth to Proxima Centauri at 1c and it will take you a little over 4 years to get there. You need to go much faster if you want to see stars whiz by à la Star Trek.
Well, for those traveling at 1c, they would experience no passage of time at allIf SE had relativistic effects you would see stars zipping by through a highly distorted view of the universe, at least up through 1c, at 1c it would get stranger.
Wait a minute, that doesn't sound right... how are you changing the velocity? Mouse wheel? That just changes the acceleration you will experience once you try and change velocity with one of the keys (arrows keys, num-pad 1 & 0).Yeah I just select Goto and I get that whizzing effect of the warp drive that Doc was talking about.Perhaps that's by design.

I'm talking more along the lines of say I am orbiting a planet or flying over a planet and want to explore the terrain below me. The terrain doesn't change no matter how fast I go.
I am using the arrow things at the bottom and clicking on them. Am I doing it wrong? I click on the one that says Increasing Velocity. I just sit in the same location no matter how fast I make it.Wait a minute, that doesn't sound right... how are you changing the velocity? Mouse wheel?

You should see two numbers next to the clock at the bottom left, the top one is actual velocity, the bottom one is your current acceleration setting.
If this is blatantly obvious, my apologies, but I can think of no other reason you can travel from star to star, or planet to planet, yet once there cannot move relative to that planet.
I don't know about any arrow buttons to click on, I'm talking about the actual cursor arrow keys. Up = accelerate forward; down = decelerate, or accelerate backwards; left & right = well, left and right; numpad 1 = accelerate vertically up; numpad 0 = down; Z key will cancel all movement.Mr. Abner wrote:

And since we are on the subject of the clock, how can time be set to a particular minute and second? I can get the date and the hour but it ignores me when I try to set it to the exact minute and second.
