Thank you Selden, all is working perfect again.

I thought I had covered everything, but yes i am useing Pre8 The thing with the latest Detonator drivers is the last time I installed ones above 53.03, most of my screen resolutions had disapeared, i couldn't choose 1152x864. but th...

Hello people I just bought myself a new Nvidia Msi Geforce FX5900 256meg graphics card. But now I'm not seeing any ring shadows on saturn. i tried to switch between the shader settings but after pressing CTRL-v twice, Celestia crashes. Is there any new settings I should know about please ? or any su...

Ahhhhh! I will be sad to see the pluto central go.
Bloody nice texture that, even if it is fictional.

Beauty... I'm trying not to drool

This is a great look back at your brilliant work Don

Every release of your new Earth, becomes my main Earth texture.
and still looking forward to you next releases.

I just wish there was data this good on planets other than Earth and Mars.

Glad to hear it Andrea, Welcome back

Good pickup on the dll file Don

if you are talking about folders in the root of c: these two directorys are the raw files used to install the files into the windows system. once the drivers are installed these directorys can be deleted. but windows XP will keep the older driver (within windows/system32) as a backup so you can do a...

I am currently useing the Detonator Drivers 53.03 and Nvidia relesed version 56.64 a few days ago, but I have not tried these yet. But 53.03 work very well for me. you could try 56.64 here :arrow: http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/winxp_2k_56.64 or try the older 53.03 here :arrow: http://www.nvidia.co....

I just tried this too And I'm getting the same results No relfection on the disk and the centre sphere is iluminating and useing the texture of the disk, when it should be black. Was working fine before Pre6/7 ----------------------------------------- just done a thorough check, and all nebulas are ...

I've discovered that all my specs are gone with pre7. No way to get them back. The spec images load, but don't display. Furthermore I now have only three renderpaths left (basic,multitexture and nvidia combiners) instead of five with 1.3.1 - but my card is still a MX4. maxim :?: Maxim did you just ...

They look pretty smooth to me.

Terrier could you explain a bit more about this setting and how to use it.

Every texure I have has been converted to high quality DDS files,
except for ring textures, which are in PNG.

Nice one Jestr
I know Stonehenge has some mystical qualitys
But Floating rocks

the reason for asking about fullscreen Is when i used the KCelestia.exe before Pre6 Celstis started with an fatal error I wasnt sure what was wrong (running at 1280x960 res) So I ran KCelestia.exe from the directory and it ran fine in windowed mode. I tried again from my shortcut, (fullscreen) but i...

Jestr have a look at your new StoneHenge model
it seems to have a floating rock in the middle area

just letting you know.

Hello Andrea

verion 6 and 7 use a completly new version of the Celestia.cfg
and has new updated shaders too.

did you keep your old CFG file ?

Also did you load Celestia in fullscreen ?
try without fullscreen.

Thank you Chris the new darker ring shadows Look amazing and My Saturn has never looked better. I too was wondering how the KCelestia.exe managed to have such a smooth ring shadow too :?: Looks like Im going to need to get a bigger Video card :roll: --------- For those asking about an exe only versi...

Jim will you be releasing your ring texture too ?
and maybe your updated saturn as well ?
