For those of us that can afford the overhead, why not a 16k version?

Vic

Your web site comes up as just black in Netscape 7!

Vic

Oy!

I go to http://members.lycos.nl/redfish/Celestia/ and right
click to save the object and all Netscape wants to to is save
a html page.

Vic

You needn't have done all that work. There are matching bumpmaps for both if you simply look for them. You can find the 16k texture in dds format at Fridger's Texture Foundry site at http://www.celestiaproject.net/~t00fri/texfoundry.html I've been to this site many times, and I just went there and ...

16k Mars map - Where's that hiding?

Vic

Actually, the redmars dds seems to match the 1k bump ok. But that
other mars dds definitely doesn't match.

Vic

I discovered today that the Marsbump1k.jpg file is screwed up. I think it's out of phase for the mars8k.dds file and vertically mirrored. In any case, it doesn't at all match up correctly - you can really see it by orbiting over mars, toggle ctrl-p on and off, and you'll see that the great canyon's ...

What Bump map level are you using in the css file (i.e. 9.5)?

NVIDIA GeForce 4 Ti4400 128mb DDR

I just put Celestia on my brand new system (with G4 TI440 128Mb) and Pre7 does not show galaxies WHATSOEVER (even the default 2k version). Earlier version this afternoon (125) DOES show galaxies. Everything else works fine AND is quite spectacular with the G4. Chris - do you know why I'm not getting...

Glad to see stars revolving again.

Vic

I couldn't find your jpg versions of files
on your site. Where are they?

Thanks- Vic

They always revolved slowly before 1.2.5!

Vic

Those new textures for stars are great, except the suns have now
stopped spinning - no matter how fast you speed up time.

Just another bug to step on.

Vic

I also don't have any labels or menu stucture (just a big gray
bar) when I'm at 1280X1024X32 full screen.

Chris, please let us know when that is fixed - kind of a bummer.

Thanks - keep up the good work.

Vic

In order that we do not have to argue for ever whether your card does it or not, why don't you just dump the openGL info that is displayed for your card when you click help->openGLinfo in the menue.

Then we can simply tell...

IN WHAT MENU?

Vic

ZET2 Reticuli... wasn't that the name of the system that the crew of
the Nostromo ended up at in the original "Alien?"

Maybe you're all getting your leg pulled.

Vic

Look. I am no wiz with OpenGL or Celestia (though I did know where to find solarsys.ssc :wink: ) But I am a pro (seriously) with photoshop. If you ever need textures or graphics of any kind for planets or otherwise, I will give it my all. I owe you. My wall has never looked so cool! Declan Join the...

Vic's bug report may well serve as a good example of how such reports should look like... (augmented with info on OS, graphics card, driver specs and Celestia version, of course!) Bye Fridger Actually, I have sent my OS, etc. many times before, but this time I suspected this bug is not system speci...
