we need to update minormoons.ssc

Maybe only Mr Chris can finally solve this "question" ... I'm not a programmer who can make a good translation.....

Maybe celestia 1.6.0 wil be distributed in different languages

First of all because the Latin names are universally accepted and recognized, and second because they are easily coupled with the relevant achronyms I completely agree with you ....but you can't forbid me some fun :wink: There are only few names that differ from theyr achronyms...it's easy to remem...

maybe the file you're lookin' for is stellarcompanions.ssc here's the code: # Orbit specifications for companion stars out to 25 light-years # Most often, the direction of the node on the plane of the sky # is unknown - the orbit's appearance is correct when viewed # from Earth, but it may be tilted...

you're right grant.....but in my nearstars.stc there isn't procyon B, nor achird B....

in the latest version of celestia i found your star...
it's called Achird B...
and Procyon B is there too...

when u select a star an you see "planetary companion present", you should click on Navigation_Solar system browser...

you'll find what you're looking for..bye[/img]

nvdxt -file c:\*.jpg

Thank you!

(create a new notepad file...past...

If you are both Italian....why are you talking in English??

I found a simple way to see 2 sun's textures.... I applied atmosphere to fsgregs' ssc: "Sun" "Sol" { Texture "sol_soho.jpg" Emissive true Radius 709000 #celestia Sol : 695705.371 Oblateness 0.009 Atmosphere { #Height 60 #Lower [ 0.43 0.52 0.65 ] #Upper [ 0.26 0.47 0.84 ] #Sky [ 0.40 0.6 1.0 ] CloudH...

i don't wanna see lens flares....i'd like to see the star system in the constellation of Reticulum

celestia gives alf, bet, eps and gam reticuli...i'd like to have zet 1 and zet 2 reticuli system..

probably i explained in a bad way my ideas..ty

Hello Celestials! I'm a new entry comin'in with a little request: Is there anyone able to create a simple star system (like the ones coded in the .stc files) to simulate the Zeta Reticuli binary system???? Here's an useful link (..i suppose :oops: ) : http://www.solstation.com/stars2/zeta-ret.htm Th...
