It's incredible how many different planets and environments I can find in this galaxy. This is the absolutely the BEST space exploration game I ever seen.

@ArrakhAre you running on old hardware since your shots are without shaders enabled?Your eclipse should darken the planet with shaders enabled using A33 dev+

If you enable shaders (in settings) you get very nice atmosphereic effects.

Yes.. atleast it looks that way to me, it looks like the atmosphere is just the triangle fan backdrop, (pure opengl), there is no geosphere_terrain shading. Atmosphere usually blends horizon color on the terrain using shaders.

Atmosphere usually blends horizon color on the terrain using shaders.I'm not using nightly, it's alpha 32.well, not sure shader is working in the right way, anyway It's activated in my pioneer options.

I found this: rondel, near sol, military listening point. I was there and I found nothing special, just empty planets. Sorry, maybe this is not the right place to post this.
