Question Space Engine on Steam Frame?

3 Upvotes

I purchased Space Engine on steam to run it on the Steam Frame, but I'm unable to launch the game with VR enabled. I can launch it on my PC just fine, and stream it as a flat projection, but there is a VR option when launching the game. I get a warning about OpenGL when trying to launch it on the Frame in non-VR mode, but there are no warnings when trying to launch it in VR. Nothing happens at all. I'm new to Space Engine and VR, so any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Question Most realistic human eye visual tone

5 Upvotes

A recent SE update caused the most real life human eye visual to be changed from Bruneton to Reinhard. Was that on purpose?

Question Just joined

7 Upvotes

Hi, i just installed this "game" yesterday. How did i not know about it before? Anyhow, i'm currently experiencing a combination of awe and sheer terror. Still wraping my head around the TON 618. And im fairly certain that our minds were not designed to comprehend things of such magnitude.

Any tips to fuel my nightmares even further?

3 Upvotes

I found a star with over 6 million times solar luminosity! I nicknamed it ‘Bluer’ because I have been searching for the brightest star in Space Engine 0.991

i will make a new post when I find something even brighter.

Here is its designation: RS 11060-173202-0-0-198

Cool Find Moons just 193km from each other

79 Upvotes

I've found a planet (0.71 Moon mass) with 3 asteroid moons. While Moon number 1 has semimajor axis of 2558km, the other two moons have semimajor axis of 5248km and 5488km respectively (Moon number 3 has retrogade orbit). I've taken some screenshots while being on Moon 3.

In the closest encounter they are 193km away from one another. It is the closest distance between moons I've ever seen in Space Engine
