Shot down again i see, oh well, Still thanks for taking a look at my idea

Thanks! I do realize you could get the same effect by just placing a billboard model over the galaxy, but then again that would also call for more RAM usage, where as this plan would not call for extra models or textures, thus less computer strain.

looks like that last image didnt work--posted the wrong image code, lets try this one of how i would like my idea to look.....

I have had an idea for Celestias galaxies that i personally think would greatly improve them. I think that the galaxy templates in the main models file, such as the Sba template image should be what i call "Color Sensitive" Meaning that if there is a color OTHER than grayscale colors on th...

well i have just been going by what selden was telling me all about He said that what i would need to do is modify the file called starPrj.VBW and that i would need a program to compile it all together......i have tried using Microsoft Visual Basic program to do this. However i get completely lost w...

anyhow....here is the change i want to have made.... right now the code has the spectral types of stars set up like this: If specType < 1 And specType > -1 Then s = "Q" If specType < 2 And specType > 0 Then s = "O" If specType < 3 And specType > 1 Then s = "B" If specTy...

ok i found a remedy to only having the TXT version of the source codes, i found the real thing, been a long day

OOPS i just found out that my codes are actually only txt files that are pretty much useless to someone who has never dealt with programming.

Hi. Is there anyone here that is good with modifying source codes and applying them to the programs? I have the source code for Rassilion's Globular cluster Generator....in fact i have two copies....one is for the changes id like to have applied to it, and another is the original. The only thing ive...

Thanks for the tips...unfortunately i dont have the brains for the generator selden mentioned.......you really cant notice the gaps unless the magnitude setting is all the way up. And im going to keep reikos tips in mind as well! Im going to keep the generator and keep producing addons.....ill just ...

Hi everyone. I am just wondering if there is an alternative star cluster generator besides Rassilions Globular cluster generator? I did not realize until my latest upload at the ML got a comment about this....that the generator produces a gap in the center of massive star clusters that is plainly vi...

I have already tried, Bob Hedgewood said that he has been "missing in action" for months now, makes us wonder if he quit celestia?

yes pluto, so am i.....reiko said that she has the 64K windows vista.....but you say it doesnt work for you either? Very puzzling!

Reiko and I are very puzzled about this, as i have Windows Vista Home premium, service pack 1, and it is working for me! I have the following files in my Generator folder... Log (folder) Cluster (application) Readme ST6UNST Global.CFG And yet i can get mine to work. Maybe theres something about whic...

I know this topic is "Not so fresh" But i too LOVE rassilion's globular cluster generator, especially since it creates actual STC files, meaning the stars in the cluster will actually be "point and go to" stars, instead of like the default cluster in celestia, where you have to v...

Hello, just my one and a half cents here, but i also made a splash screen for Celestia http://i425.photobucket.com/albums/pp332/j9203/clsta.jpg And here is how i fixed up my Celestia logo for when the program has started up. All i did here was add a blue glowing effect to it. http://i425.photobucket...

hi. Sorry for the long away time, you know, with the holidays and all. I have tried my hand at a LITTLE 3d modeling, but so far i can only make very crude and non detailed models, LOL! Naturally i ran across what any noob model maker would, trouble getting them to behave the way you want in Celestia...

Oh and thanks for those links to those models! The second link actually took me to JUST the type of Moai heads that i was looking for!

Just a quick note, that although Bob has already sent the addon of the system to the Motherlode, there will most certainly be a couple of future updates for it.

Oh, i thought i had mentioned to you that this addon was based on a game i had Bob, LOL! It is based on an older game called Gradius 3. I am a major fan of that series of games...they have kept this title going from the very FIRST Nintendo, even up to the recent consoles such as playstation2. And i ...
