Thanks again for your diligent Beta testing! Today we're bringing the High-Resolution Screenshot Tool to public, enabling you to take a screenshot of any reasonable (or unreasonable!) resolution, even if you have less than stellar hardware! The new tool can be found on the left tool bracket and shares an icon with the default screenshot button.
In case you missed it: we celebrated five years on steam with the Beta launch of the new tool; the accompanying blog post includes a brief look back on our development as well as a guide on using said tool. Read up on it here: https://spaceengine.org/news/blog240611/
We're still on the lookout for any bugs that sneak through. Keep us posted in the Troubleshooting Discussion threads!
