Here is the log file you requested..
What videocard do you have? Try to delete atioglxx.dll from SE's system folder if you have it there.

What videocard do you have?

I have a Radeon 6290 Video Card with 384 MB. This is my old Laptop which my wife uses, she is equally interested in SE. Now I know that this video card would make the fps low but earlier versions of SE(before 0.9.7.2) were running without any problem, so is there any chance for this card to survive on SE?

I've noticed some peculiar behavior with cloud layers and storms on Ice and Gas Giants. Namely, "Odd" numbers of cloud layers will produce "pretty" storms, whereas "Even" numbers of cloud layers will produce "ugly" storms.

Here's the code of the planet I'm showing. Feel free to switch it to a new parent or change it's orbit so it won't interfere with Earth, since this was an "Alternate Sol" I've been working on. I'm using Patch 5.

What is it that sometimes the gas giant's atmosphere patterns disappears? Only monochrome (without clouds , spots) , looks like a billiard ball. If you exit the program and restart, then SE works well again.

My VGA: AMD Radeon R7 250X 1GB


Somebody help?

Vulcan isn't real, so you have to get the mod for it and it's system...





Living among the stars, I find my way. I grow in strength through knowledge of the space I occupy, until I become the ruler of my own interstellar empire of sorts. Though The world was made for the day, I was made for the night, and thus, the universe itself is within my destiny.

Just find a warm desert planet with life and rename it Vulcan.

There's your Vulcan.

Sometimes I get something like this in SE 0.974.5:





But it can not be repeated, when I reboot SE, everything is normal.

Recently I tried feature called reversed floating-point depth buffer. It worked on NVidia and AMD, didn't tested yet on Intel. It is similar to logarithmic depth buffer, but with full hardware supports and with no changes in shaders. It allows SE to use a single depth buffer for the entire scene, like in usual 3D games - this unocks a lot of possibilities, which SE can't use until now. For example, easy render of transparent objects between opaque, like orbital paths, or small moons inside rings. Fixing all issues with render order, like rings or aurora being rendered in front of space ship. Particle effects on planets and ships (smoke, clouds, rain etc). All modern algorithms which required access to the depth buffer (deferred shading, 3D water with distortion, SSAO, shadow maps(!), etc).

Orbits:


Ship on ballistic trajectory (ie in orbit intersecting planet surface - I can render a marker "Impact point" now!):


But the main and most epic feature of this is amazing precision of Z buffer. It's possible to sit on a nose of astronaut model while looking at mountains on distant planet, and no z-fighting! No more z-fighting on water shores and on clouds. Camera collision height can be reduced to fractions of millimeter, which allows implementing long-awaited "walking mode" (accurate collision detection is needed though).

This is the best thing ever. I want to say 'I love you', SpaceEngineer, but that would be inappropriate so I won't.
