Selden,

thanks for the hint. However, the nebulae still remain invisible...

Joachim

Hi all, I just tried out the recent 1.4 pre7 version and came across this issue (tried it on two different machines with NVIDIA and ATI cards and both showed the same effect): Nebulae won't render at all and galaxies only very dimly (barely visible). If I use the 1.4 pre6 executable and leave the re...

Chris,

yes, I think you got it. The pilot is there again and the other rendering errors seem to be gone, too.

Great job!

Joachim

Jestr,

your ftp got a bit faster today, also some of the EMule links are downloading right now. So, I guess you could say things have improved a bit lately. What's that site you are talking about? I might have some stuff to upload/share, too.

Joachim

Jestr, up early this morning, too? :D As for the downloads, I actually got most of the files via ftp as Emule rarely shows the files as available (that low ID problem, I guess?). Over the quite some time I had managed to build a 500+ MB chunck of a file in Emule but it hadn't changed in days. When I...

Jestr,

thanks for that info. 500+ MB of transfer lost Never mind, though. Anyway, can't wait to hear from you when all this stuff is on a fast site finally!

Thanks for all the great work. Let us know when it is all on the new server!

Cheers,

Joachim

Jestr, for the last two weeks or so I have been trying to download those huge zip files of yours. It takes ages to download them but I have managed to get quite a few of them downloaded anyway. But just now I found out that the larege texture files I was still downloading (e.g. 64kJestrMarble.PNG(le...

Rassilon,

this looks very promising! Can't wait to get my hands on that...

Keep up the good work!

Joachim

Hi Frank, I'm sending you the Venus Generator Add-On directly as it will take some more time till I can put it on my site. I guess you can put it on your site in the meanwhile and make it available to others again as the original download location seems to be unavailable. Fortunately I have built a ...

Chris, Frank I don't think that this bug is new in 1.3.2pre8--this limitation has always been present in Celestia. I agree that there have always been some limitations with Celestia but I think Frank is right in saying that something must have changed because I - and I believe other folks as well - ...

Jestr, regarding Emule: Do you have the latest version (0.42g)? Also, the following (from the Emule Help) might be helpful. Do you have the corresponding ports open in case you use a firewall/proy/router etc.? From The Emule Help: eMule does not display the ID any further but shows the ID status by ...

Jestr,

ignore my last post. I can now access it (why?). I assume it is the 40 Eridani-Vulcan medres.zip file...

Joachim

Jestr,

thanks for the reply! That was quick! Where can I get the Vulcan add-on? When I go to your website (ftp://81.108.220.185/) now I get a logon screen right from the start (even though a transfer is still running on my other computer!).

Any ideas? How about those Emule links?

Joachim

Jestr, I wanted to download some of your files but had difficulties in doing so because your ftp server at times dropped the connection. This is kind of bad when you are in the middle of downloading a huge file - I'd like to check out your VT files! So I tried to download them via the Emule links yo...

Okay, I made some more tests with different models and versions of Celestia. Some examples can be seen below. Deepspace 9 in Celestia 1.3.1: http://www.jherschmann.de/celestia/ds9-Celestia-1.3.1.jpg Deepspace 9 in Celestia 1.3.2pre8: http://www.jherschmann.de/celestia/ds9-Celestia-1.3.2pre8.jpg Imme...

Jestr,

thanks for the hint. I'll have a look into that some time later...

Joachim

P.S.: Where is that latest site of yours gone (http://members.lycos.co.uk/jestr/extras/extras.html)?

Guys, I then assume that there is indeed some kind of source code change after 1.3.1 that affects certain models in Celestia. I have not yet had tried to fix the problem the way jestr has and I am not sure if that is the way to go anyway. Since you were able to recreate the problem and it seems to b...

This still happens with the latest prerelease 1.3.2. pre 8

Since Version 1.3.2 pre 2 I don't get the interior (pilot and cabin details) of the Star Wars Tie Fighters/Interceptors rendered any more. It worked fine in Version 1.3.1 but now it is simply transparent. This happens under all my grpahics card/OS combinations (Nvidia & ATI, Win XP, Win 2000). Is th...
