Thanks, Mosfet, for the quick answer. That's kind of what I thought, but I thought it was important enough to ask.

[quote="Mosfet"][ref]HapNStance[/ref], it's a known limitation, I think it's been described back in the old forum.

[quote="Macronicus"][post]18809[/post] Can I show my se.log here then?[/quote]
Yes, you can post your se.log in pastebin.com then paste the address here.[/quote]

Here's my log.

why do the planets and stars keep being invisible? The only thing i see is the polar lights thing and the star light the planets and stars themselves are not there, even if i have them on.

I suspect you have a video card that is not compatible with SpaceEngine.
Probably an Intel HD 2000 or Intel HD 3000.

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with kernel 4.13.0-36-generic (hardware enablement)
AMD FX-6300 Six-core processor (with updated microcode)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti (driver version 390.25)

There appears to be an issue with black hole warp rendering when SpaceEngine is run via WINE on Linux. I'm currently running WINE 3.3 and have previously tried multiple versions of WINE-staging, WINE-stable, and WINE-devel and they have all persisted with the issue.

More specifically, if BlackHoleQuality is set to anything greater than zero, this issue appears.

It appears to be related to a GLSL shader error of some sort. I tried
winetricks glsl=disabled
and that had no effect on the graphics issue. Then I tried changing some settings in main-user.cfg such as IgnoreShaderBinary, IgnoreSyncObjects, LoaderAsyncTextures, LoaderAsyncMeshes, and LoaderAsyncShaders to no avail.

This is with black hole quality set to low (or zero in the config file). Looks correct.

This is with black hole quality set to anything but low. Looks artifacted and corrupted. The look of the corruption changes depending on the orientation of the camera and distance from the black hole.

My kernel dmesg and SpaceEngine log.

I've searched through the common issues and on google for my problem and couldn't find mine, unless I overlooked it, so sorry in advance but here goes:

The game crashes(Program has stopped working box, Windows 10) after I click on the 20-30th star after opening the program. I haven't counted exactly yet, but it's within that range, and it never fails. It doesn't matter what kind of star it is, and it doesn't matter where I'm at when it does it.

Otherwise, the game runs perfectly fine, very smooth, no lag or choppiness. Black holes are smooth, globular clusters are smooth, Neutron stars are smooth, Planet textures are smooth, everything. But as soon as I click on one star too many, it crashes.

My rig:

Geforce GTX 1060, driver 391
Intel i-7 quad core 2.6 Ghz
16 GB ram

Unless I overlooked it, I didn't see an issue with these specs. Thanks for your help.

JLowe, Can you post your 'se.log'? It is located in the 'system' directory of your SpaceEngine installation.
You probably need to use pastebin for this.

Maurício Cruz · 08 Mar 2018 16:08

Normal?

Interesting, I noticed the log says "Creating Planetary system" when one gets clicked on. Perhaps it's an issue of creating too much stuff? Or too much stuff too quickly?

JLowe · 08 Mar 2018 18:43

Here's another one that crashed. I post it because according to this one it began deleting the planetary systems of the stars I had clicked on previously. Perhaps it's an issue of clicking on too much too quickly?

Tire tracks? I think you've found evidence of intelligent life in S.E.

Do you have an address for this world?

JLowe, in the first log you have some warnings about shaders. I do not know if that matters, but you could delete the cache folder in your SpaceEngine installation.

If that does not help, you could update the driver for your video card, or make a rollback to an earlier version.

Perhaps it's an issue of creating too much stuff? Or too much stuff too quickly?

This could only be the case if you have set the magnitude limit for stars too high and too many stars are visible at the same time.

Maurício Cruz · 09 Mar 2018 05:30

Do you have an address for this world?

Yes, like intelligente life

I think I not take the position :? I not found anymore... Sorry

Thanks for the help, I have tried several different drivers and the problem is the same among them. The one I have now is the latest I believe.

I'll try to delete the cache folder and see if that helps.

I should add that the game runs fine as long as I don't click on anything. I can fly to a star as long as I don't click on it(past the limit of 20-30).

JLowe · 09 Mar 2018 20:37

I tried deleting the cache folder, as well as a few other things, but it didn't work.

Perhaps I should add that I flew to a binary system and clicked between the two stars probably 100+ times and the program hasn't crashed yet. It apparently only does it when I click on too many new stars.

[size=100]In any case, if the problem cannot be fixed, thanks for your help anyway, and the program is still playable, just less convenient.[/size]
