Infinite galaxy field

I first started using Space Engine with 0.9.7. I had great fun zooming all the way out to the edge of the available universe and seeing the structure of the known catalogue of galaxies. Since 0.9.7.1 it seems that this has been extended with an infinite procedural field.
Is it possible to disable this and revert back to the old catalogue? I still have the old version but it's lacking so many of the great new features.

Procedural galaxies have been around for quite some time, they have simply been enabled by default.

I assume you have this


When in game press F4 or hit escape and go to View in the main menu and uncheck the box under "Galaxies" that says "Procedural"


This will turn off procedural galaxies and leave you with this

I'm pretty sure they've always been enabled by default.

No, the universe is still finite. I flew from one edgeof the cube to the other, and I came up with over 21 gigalightyears wide.




Careful. The PLATT Collective has spurs.

Unless something has changed, the exact length of each side of the cube is 10 Gpc.
