What kind of computer do you have? Which graphics card? How old is your computer?
Do you have the latest Nvidia graphics card driver? Version 436.02? Maybe that's the problem. I heard that some people have problems with this driver. SpaceEngine crashes with this driver at startup!
I just installed that driver today and had no problems, aside from the time it took to rebuild the shader cache on first install, which is normal.
Yes.do you mean the file named se?
I also have no problem with this driver.
It could be that we both completely erase all traces of the previous driver before installing the new one. I always select that option prior to install. It means we have to leave all driver settings to default, but that is fine, it is better to do a clean install rather than have traces of the old driver remaining.I also have no problem with this driver.
But some people have.
I assume it depends on what graphics card you have. Or maybe not, maybe it has some other mysterious reason.
Here is a discussion about it:
