| Quote spacer ( ) its seems like the avi doesnt work for me. any options or configaration i need to do? Yes, install this codec https://www.xvid.com/download/ pick avi and hit configure codec, alt tab if the codec window isnt appearing.. select it from the drop down list, check if xvid home is selected, then record.
i think alienasa used obs to record.
i made this with those settings..

| I used windows movie maker that comes with win7 for editing, but there's also the internal youtube video editor which is a little bit poor.. i think alienasa used another editing app, just check his utube videos for the name.. i'm not really that into editing videos.

| For anyone asking what software I use to record SpaceEngine, it is indeed OBS. Furthermore I use Hitfilm 3 Express for editing. Both of them are free software.

| I also use OBS for my general captures, but for SE I prefer exporting frames, since my computer isn't so fast with rendering and I like the video to be seamless. I then convert them to video with "MakeAVI", which has easy options for framerate and compressor.
For editing the video I've in the past used Windows Movie Maker, but would like to try others. Thanks for the suggestions!

| Alienasa, i tried to capture space engine with OBS but look: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bzeq3AOyNCjSN1ZtUkVXd1JLNWs
its flashing... OBS working with reshade? maybe that the problem or i need to do some settings?
edit: i found a way to record in awesome qulity with obs. only problem is that flashing: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bzeq3AOyNCjSRlpxVE9LcUQxSVk/view :( :(
also do i need to choose direct3D 11 or openGL for recording? i see no diffrences but i know space engine work on openGL
EDIT 2: seems like its not flashing without DOC reshade. does obs has some problem with reshade? also i cant use shadowplay because its not support openGL. so i guess i cant film SE with reshade?

Sorry for the late reply. That may be the case, I will ask Doctorofspace about it later.

| Ok, SE seems to have updated on Steam - the main menu has a fancy new dynamic background and the key binding dialogue has new, VR-specific, binding options. Awesome!
What else am I missing in this update? The Changelog in the docs folder hasn't been updated since the end of June.

| Oh, I was rushed with this update, and forgot about changelog. Hurrying is bad!
Changes: - Added support of Oculus CV1 and HTC Vive with controllers - Added ability to bind stereobase change on keys and gamepad/joystick buttons - Different mirror modes in VR, with ability to capture video from the main window - Removed "auto velocity" button - New main menu design - Planet/moon star-like particle now rendered on it's crescent rather than in disk center - Joystick/controller bindings are saved in its own config file
Bugfixes: - Fixed bug with not initialized user name in the user settings menu at startup - Fixed flipped sign of declination labels on the equatorial grid - Fixed issues in main menu in 3D modes - Fixed bug with inability to open a toolbar - Fixed incorrect initializing of mode of orbital points markers - Fixed too bright planets/moons on a previews in the Solar System browser - Fixed some errors in catalogs - Fixed "blackout" bug - Fixed disappearing of a planet when camera is in it's shadow and planet is unselected - Fixed bug with wrong calculating of barycenter mass of Sagittarius A* and other supermassive black hole systems
This update is mostly about VR. I am forced to susoend VR development, because I am in Marsellies this month Here is what I am ended up with regarding HTC Vive:
Controls: - Red controller ("Vive controller 1" in the controls settings menu): --- point moving direction with red laser ray, press trigger to fly in that direction --- point GUI elements with red laser ray, press trigger to activate element --- change moving speed by slide touchpad vertically --- drag/rotate view/object while holding grip buttons --- toggle main menu with menu button - Green controller ("Vive controller 2" in the controls settings menu): --- point object with green laser ray, press trigger to select it (NOT IMPLEMENTED YET - Oculus method is used) --- go to selected object by pressing touchpad button --- change stereobase by bring hands together gesture while holding grip buttons --- toggle orbits with menu button
Suggestions: - Enable velocity pointer - it helps to see current velocity while adjusting it - Toggle orbits when zooming (changing stereobase) at planetary system level - it helps with navigation - Double press green touchpad for faster flight to selected object - You may force usage of Oculus or SteamVR runtime in the main-user.cfg (VRRuntime parameter)
Known issues: - Oculus Rift doesn't work through SteamVR (idk why, at least my DK2 with 1.6 runtime doesn't work). If you are Oculus user, force Oculus runtime in main-user.cfg (set VRRuntime to 1) - Interface interferes sometimes, must be implemented as toolbars near the controllers - In Oculus, interaction with interface is only possible using mouse - To see velocity/stereobase value while adjusting them, you must look at the interface - Velocity changes together with stereobase, but maybe too slowly - Rotating view with mouse/joystick is occurred around zero pose point, not around headset position - Rotating view with red controller is occurred around zero pose point, not around controller position - Selection with green ray doesn't work. Used Oculus method (selection with view direction) - When pressing trigger in GUI, camera start moving - Impossible to configure controllers if SE is not in VR mode - Labels, information billboard and other billboards are not render at correct depth - Controller models are not render at correct depth at increased stereobase - Lens fares have some glitches
