Celestia Forums

The case conversion utility becomes completely unnecessary as soon as add-on creators can create their stuff so that it follows Celestia's rules. Seems to me that you need to ask the add-on creators to repair/replace their own add-ons here. Just a thought. :wink: This is part of what we're currentl...

Note that this would only be slow if no exact match would be found (because Celestia would have to get directory contents and compare found files with the requested one). So there should be no speed difference for normal startup. Only in case of broken add-ons, the difference would be that textures...

as far as I know, the ~ is a dead key on Swiss keyboards. To receive a tilde symbol alone, you'd have to press [Alt Gr]+[^] (together) and then the [Space] bar. I remember when using WinXP, it actually worked: [Alt Gr]+[^] then [Space] showed the many awaited informations. But... not with linux. I'...

Thanks all for your help. Thanks Bob for your converted file. I'll run these softwares using Wine, this should not to be an issue. Anoter question: have I to revert back the ASCII file to a binary file to use the cmod with Celestia? BTW, I don't think (re)coding the way Celestia manages the case of ...

Thanks Steffens, it did the trick. I'm going to have a very bad time, renaming so many files. I can automate the process using some handful tools (pe krename), but it would be easier to modify the cmod itself; if you know such software running on linux, please let me know. I'm not at ease with modif...

Thanks for your concern, Steffens. I already have tried to debug using the console log, but haven't be able to find the tilde on my keyboard. Well, I exactly know where the tilde is, but the keys which are meant to do the tilde don't have the effect expected. I even tried to switch to US layout (fro...

Hello all, I don't know why, but Celestia cannot display my addons since I switched to linux, a few years ago. I don't have been very involved into Celestia, so since now it wasn't an issue lately. But I can reproduce this annoying behavior from Celestia 1.41 to 1.5. Celestia do display textures (no...

Definitely great news.

Hope linux release will follow quickly !

Don't forget that colorful "galaxy" Addons actually are defined as Nebula Mesh objects.
Look in their .DSC catalog file to verify this.

You were absolutely right, Selden

I venture to recall this bug, since the 1.4 final is on the way...

The nebula box in rendering option behaves very weirdly. On my side, it doesn't change anything, but removing some galaxies addons. (I was wondering what was the purpose of this option, until I read it here). And reporting on my board, another user said the selection is not remembered after closing ...

Hi Jestr, Could you send me the "officials" links to your british addons :lol: Emule files have already began to spread, and so duplications have. It would be better to keep a unique emule links listing. BTW, have I to stop sharing Devon and Cornwall ? Is everything included in your new addons ?

Mmmh... Titan is going to be my favourite Saturn's satellite

As explicitly wrote, all credits go to Jdou, and only to Jdou.

Merci encore pour ton boulot

I don't see how this would let you delete a lot of texture image files. If they're different, then I'd expect you'd want to keep them so you can see them all. By "cleaning", I meant keeping all my addons in "celestia\extras", not deleting them :) Upgrade would be a lot easier if I could keep "celes...

I was pretty enthusiastic about the "replace" instruction, that my friend Jeamtag told me about. After trying on the earth, I was conviced that was the way I was looking for to get rid of my many textures added to "celestia\textures", and cleaning my HD. BUT I just discovered managing this way textu...

Runar, Don's work is fantastic, I think I've been explicit enough. However, it doesn't matter how good it is.

Selden, I know that, but I had to state my feeling about that conception.

I have all the files and will be holding on to them in the mean time. Please do not pester me about uploading the files to the Celestia Motherload. These are my textures and as such I hold the copyright and want to hold control of how they are presented to the world. I know this sounds like it is c...

Now, you have your answer

You guys have made a genuinely amazing work.

Thanks for that.
