INSTALL
http://en.spaceengine.org/load/
|_ install version 0972

SOME OF MY OWN SCREENIES (WITH LOCATIONS)

SHARING LOCATIONS
|_ add a location in game
|_ open config/places.cfg with wordpad
|_ copy paste the location entry here (latest entry at the bottom of the file)

GENERAL TIPS
|_ Landscape LOD determines the overall graphics level
|_ use LOD 0-1 for good graphics/performance, LOD 2 is only for good rigs or still screenshots
|_ use Auto Exposure and Real Sun/Planet Brightness for realistic lighting
|_ right click a planet to select moons
|_ speed up time to see a sunset/sunrise on a planet

If it's procedural, wouldn't the locations change every time?

Not if everyone's using the same seed for randomness.
