Ideas for next version of Celestia

It's already possible to make scripts in Celestia! Make them with your favourite text editor and load them from the file menu (open script). You just need someone to write the scripts, I guess... Hmmm, I don't seem to have that option under the File menu in the Linux version. I guess my next reques...

Ideas for next version of Celestia

<snip> 2) More tours; What about a quick tour of the Voyager-mission, includign orbits and automatic time-effects and scripts. The tour can start in the year when Voyager 1 was launched, and can end when Voyager has come as long out as it is today. <snip> I think being able to select from a list of...

Re: Celestia and processor usage

No, there are not any other normal priority tasks running (although I do have Folding@Home running, but according to the task manager it's not getting any power, since Celestia.exe is always at 99% usage).

Re: Latest Feature Requests (for beyond 1.2.4)

I would like to see Celestia distro broken down into more parts. The binary, source and graphics should be in separate archives. That way it would be easy to update from one version to another. Sure, the 10 meg archive isn't that big even with my pokey old modem, but the textures are a large amount ...

Re: Crash: "segmentation error" when demo comes to saturn orbit

Try to go to Mercury and push CTRL P. You should see mercury now in a nice bumpmapped rendering. Next push CTRL V to activate vertex shading.
