| YES!!  Downloaded, first single star I clicked: 1 oceania with life! (still had a planet with unstable elliptical orbit, oh well.) Thank you! Glad I could help by reporting the bug.
Careful. The PLATT Collective has spurs.

| Well for me there is one thing and im very happy about it crashes are past now there wasn't a single crash i was using it for over 15 minutes @LOD0 , @LOD1 and it was very smooth , fast generation of landscape , and i thought maybe i should push it to the limits and went for LOD2 and guess what.. it didnt crash i was able to take screenshots however and whenever i wanted with any LOD
Good job Vova
How did you manage it btw ? Was it hard to implement this ?

| Simply, amaaaaazing 
However I have one question before I download this awesome patch (well actually a couple xD).
Quote Delete the cache folder before running the updated version!
So, do I have to remove the entire cache folder in my Space Engine files and download it right away?
Or... do I have to remove my current patch 0.9.6.1???
By the way, I just downloaded the most recent video card driver update today and now this patch... I'm excited
Any help please, don't want to mess up my SE, and by the way what about the ghost lens flares are they supposed to be the add-ons like horizontal lens flares (if so, too bad I really love them, oh well xD)
SE FTW

2) Remove cache folder

| Sorry I have to ask this but I've done exactly as you said... However when I start up SE, 0.9.6.1 beta still appears in my starting up screen... is this normal or what? 
Great patch by the way SpaceEngineer!
However for some reason this patch has become extremely laggy
Oh nevermind again it seems it gets really laggy before entering a galaxy and then it runs fine... I'll be quite now and test it instead of posting after every little cry lol...
Great... now I'm stuck forever... Earth's eternally loading... And so I exit screened near Earth now I'm not able to play SE anymore... Oh it's working again... Anyway I can't visit Earth anymore...
@SpaceEngineer... My goodness what kind of specs do you need for this patch???
Okaaay, as long as I stay atleast more then 100.000 km away from Earth it will not eternally load... Somehow I'm glad I've found a way for example if I accidently do encounter Earth to close and exit screen then I just simply have to press Esc while loading ---> Lol I found out when smashing my keyboard (haven't done that in ages) Anyway amazing job once more SpaceEngineer... Fabulous nebulae and galaxies... I still have alot to discover simply because I'm too scared to crash again... Oh well it's just the way things are, people die in Africa by famine and I complain because SE crashes? Pretty pathetic... Really love this patch

If it says 0.9.6.1, make a clean install - download 0.96, unpack, then download 0.9.6.2, unpack, then launch spaceengine.exe
It shold be lagy at first launch, because shaders and models of galaxies and nebuale are generated and stored in a cache. The generation is quite slow, but once be generated, they will be quickly loaded from the cache at next launches.
If yo on the loading screen and don't want wait, just press Esc.

| Thank you SpaceEngineer
So I need to keep the cache folder instead of deleting it everytime before I start up SE again?
My last question though, I speak too much 
@SpaceEngineer's post below mine: Thanks for letting me know I'll truly enjoy this patch :D
By the way Vlad, I really like how the planetary texture rendering is significantly improved, thanks for that I needed that badly.
Wow, I just crashed a couple of hours ago and I wanted to tell that I've never seen this type of crash... I crashed and then somehow SE recovered and continued (amazing never had that before)

Of course! Delete it only after installing the patch or new galaxy/nebula addon.
