Celestia Forums

It's interesting and I didn't know this wikibooks page.
But it's a shame to develop addons for 1.70 when it hasn't been officially released yet. Besides, is there a stable version without bugs and where?
Thank you for the info

Star Wars Galaxy (2024) third edition

in stc files
what is this parameter : Distance<pc ?
It's a specific new parameter to Celestia 1.7 ?
What does it correspond to ? Distance in Parsec ?

After a long break, I'm resuming Starlink launch updates.
There are no less than 20 launches that I offer you below

I downloaded celestia 1.6.4 and I saw that the location coordinates for the asteroid Itokawa are in the file: celestia 1.6.4/data/itokawa_locs.ssc, was not accurate here is attachment a corrected version, but due to the fact that the asteroid is not spherical some names are written above the surface...

Starlink launches 127 to 132 (29-12-2023)

Exoplanets_2024_01_05_Attempt2.zip

This update blocks the launch of Celestia. Loading stops or goes around in circles on .stc files
I had to go back to the previous update from December 2023.

Thank you

Earthmoon wrote You mean that the program runs faster when there are no multi-line object definitions/strings? yes, yes, yes... it seems like it will never stop. I have to stop it and anyway it eats up all the memory. I specify that it is with large files. There should be an option to not check &quo...

I carried out a systematic check of the .ssc files of the asteroids that I proposed on the forum. This check was carried out with EarthMoon celcheck. The celcheck_1.3 version which integrates multiline parameter control being too slow, I used the celcheck_test1 version. You will find in the archive,...

ok but that doesn't help those who provide large files: asteroids, stars, nebulas, galaxies, pulsars, spacecraft fleets, ... multilines exist but are few in number (for my part, only 1 out of 600,000 asteroids). Once this error is resolved, even temporarily, the celcheck program runs much faster. I ...

cellcheck_1.3 is effective with an ssc file containing around thirty objects but beyond that, checking the parameters programmed on 2 or more lines takes a lot of time without us knowing if the program is stopped or running. With files of 10,000 asteroids, the program manages to empty the central me...

celcheck_1.3 does not work on large files
I'm trying to find up to how many lines it works

celcheck_test1 works very well with large files: 280132 lines

I continue to test your latest version my test file is a file that I shared on the forum under asteroids from 0 to 9999 Your program does not recognize certain characters in the file name, for example "°", although celesia accepts them. So my test is done with the file asteroids00001-09999...

Starlink de SpaceX : launches 114 à 122

in cmd, I write: celcheck_1.1 asteroids.ssc both are in the same folder asteroids.ssc is an asteroid declaration file that works in celestia ( 281310 lines et 5350Ko ) the result is: "Could not read file 'asteroids.ssc'! Make sure the file exists and you have read permissions" with a file ...

I now have 12 GB of physical memory in my PC But it wasn't enough to satisfy Celestia's needs. I looked at the Windows 11 paging file. It was set to 768MB max, which is nothing. Sites on the net, like Malekal, recommend up to 3 x Ram. I changed my values to 12288MB (12GB) The Speccy software now tel...
