Re: Unable to view nebulae

First of all, make sure you enabled 'galaxies' from the Render menu - View Options (or simply press 'U' on your keyboard).

Special characters in asterisms.dat (?)

I've made a translation (in Romanian) of the constellation names from asterisms.dat and I need to put some special characters in the names. I see that in "Bootes" is a special character starting with "\" (an hex value, I assume...). Now, I tried the same thing for the characters I need (ie. "?", wic...

Celestia - Romanian Version?

Does anybody knows something about a Romanian translation of Celestia? I would like to give it a try if there isn't already a romanian version.
I have a little programming background so... what else do I need to get started :?:

Re: VT of New York and Montreal...

That looks realy nice! Why don't you build a site for your addons? so that we can have access to them, and you wont need to send them separately.

If you'd like to have my addons, just send me an e-mail and I'll try to send you the files that you want. The 50megs server is veeeery slow. Last time it took me...

Re: Bubble Nebula

Thanks, selden. Sorry for that mistake (NGC6735). I've replaced (and modified the link to NGC7635) the zips with the new ones containing the distance to the nebula.

Re: MindToAsk mirror site

I don't know what's the pb., but try this: in control panel select Internet Options. In the Privacy tab set the slider to Medium or Low. If the slider is above medium maybe it blocks any pop-up windows (and go.ro has one). Hope this helps. Good luck!

Re: MindToAsk mirror site

That's because the index file is missing. When I created the account I'd transfered the files from go.ro to 50megs.com, but only a few files were copied, so I decided to delete index.htm and "kill" the mirror site. I'm open to suggestions on a web host with external ftp manager support.

Could anyone suggest a free hosting server wich supports uploading through a ftp manager? I'm trying to upload a 700 kb file on 50megs but I get an error message after half an hour(I've exceeded quota or the file size limit; Could the cause of this be my ISP?).
