InfoURL "and here goes the link for my profile's outbox on the forum"

The reason I hesitate is that I can add the necessary code for those who do NOT know how to create the SSC files, and I can also explain the installations. Should I do this, or simply DELETE the offending add-ons? I like the ideea of deleting old and outdated addons but if the textures are aligned ...

you could make the inverse color with an nvidia tool thet comes with the display driver
look for it in display settings

OK guys so bad addond was not such a good term to use, how about accurate vs. not so accurate? That whold not put any addon creator on a blacklist just becouse the addon is outdated. I think anybody who is downloading the addon shuld know how accurate it is. I got here the Jupiter and moons page fro...

I've been having some problems with some addons, some of the texture addons place the textures incorectly, and some of the rocks orbiting Saturn are a little mistplaced by comparing them with the ones allready in Celestia. I am asking if someone with more knowledge in the subject can make a list of ...

My english is limited so please be patient I thought Celestia needs more developers who can offer their free time for improving this software instead all i see is newcomers being harassed. I understand all of you have done a great deal so far but you should let other at least try to expand or even i...

I think thet if you add a different texture instead of a blured dot
Or by making the nebulae fully opaque you can get the result you want

EDIT
Only the blobs with exactly the same color and opacity melt together

Is there any depth sorting problems with this rendering ? I can not identify any problem, i dont see it from a programmer's perspective Can you feel the farthest blob *behind* the close ones ? Not realy, all of them have the same opacity and when the sprites get one in front of another they look li...

I just love the additive blending effect: I made no modifications to the dsc declaration and the FOV is the default value http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/6807/pic1hb9.th.jpg http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/8458/pic3bu8.th.jpg http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/1832/pic4eq9.th.jpg http://img80.images...

Just asking... Has anybody (other then the addon creators) tried to make some modifications to the addons in the Motherlode? Maybe organize them? (make multiple single objects out of addon packs) I know about the authors rights but if they dont care about them anymore why shuld the addons lay there ...

Thanks i realy hope i can build an addon in the near future and not bail when it's half finished

- Added blend type to cmod materials: additive and normal alpha blending are supported.

Can somebody tell me how do i declare this in the cmod file?
I only know about "blend add" and i dont have any clue if this adds additive blending or normal alpha blending

I have a weird problem with point sprites i see them as dots when they are textured but when i remove the texture i see them as a point sprite looks like without a texture. I tried to change the texture format from jpg to bmp, png also in the cmod file but no efect I have the latest CVS build instal...

I just downloaded the M42 nebula in galaxy rendering from the forum http://celestiaproject.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10543 So instead of adding the definition in deepsky.dsc and the png template to the models folder i made an addon and started Celestia. The nebula looked more like a blue gas instead...

Specular textures and normal maps for clouds are suported in celestia?

And where can they be found?

I don't know much about galaxy templates
But is it posible to show color from the png image?

With some contrast and a grayscale efect some pictures of galaxies can be turned into galaxy templates
ex: M 33

But with a loss of quality even on 512X512 resolution

I am curios
