In the .ssc file I have already deleted the beginning and ending dates

select { object "Cassini" } follow {} goto { time 6 distance 50 upframe "ecliptical" } wait { duration 6 } goto { time 6 distance 3 upframe "ecliptical" } wait { duration 6 } print { text " Cassini (Orbiter) Launched (USA & ESA) 15 Oct 1997\n Entered orbit arou...

Intel Core i7-2600 CPU - 16 GB RAM - 64-bit OS - Celestia ver 1.6.1 I’ve created a spacecraft .cel file with 82 spacecraft, and I’m having a problem with 6 of them. For reasons unknown to me the Cassini, Curiosity, Giotto, ISS, Juno, and Vostok 1 do not appear. When the craft is called, there is mov...

Just wondering - I opened up the Celestia Users forum and can't figure out why the first topic listed is dated 2013? Not only that, but the 2013 post is followed by a 2012 post, which is followed by a 2009 post, and naturally that is followed by a 2007 post before a 2017 post finally shows up. It wo...

FarGetaNik - it does work now. Thanks for you help

I downloaded the file from Celestia Motherlode > spacecraft > earth orbit. In the International Space Station, clicking on the "The ISS in various configurations", in the comments section the first comment tells of editing the spacecraft.ssc in the data folder. I moved the .jpg files from ...

I tried to install an updated version of the ISS. It instructed me to update the spacecraft.ssc in the data folder, trouble is, I have no spacecraft.ssc in my data folder. I running Celestia 1.6.1 - is there supposed to be a spacecraft.ssc or not? If so, where can I get the download?

I downloaded both the Config Manager and CMODView - both programs were prevented from running by Microsoft Windows 10 @ "Windows protected your PC Windows SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk." Does anyone know of any "ris...

It was a very bad day when the Forum disappeared - so naturally - it was a great day so welcome it back. I don't yet know who you are, but I for one appreciate what you've done. Thank you

Selden, once again you've come through for me. Thank you

I transferred by .cel files from my XP computer over to my new Win 7. When I tried to open the .cel files I received the error message saying Windows needed to know what created the file. I tried to convince it to use Celestia.exe to open them, but evidently that wasn't what the system wanted to hea...

Thanks Reiko, I was beginning to wonder if anyone was out there...

What in the .ssc controls the view of a spacecraft? Sometimes the craft comes into view upside down, and people have asked my why I did it that way. It seems there are almost as many differences in the .ssc files as there are spacecraft. Liberty Bell 7 has lines of "RotationPeriod", "...

I searched and searched and finally found the bad guy. It's a download called "Major Asteroids 1.3.2 Zip", by Jestr, dated 3/14/2005. I tried searching for the individual files and deleting them, but ended by blowing everything up and starting over with a new download of 1.6.1 I want to th...

Abramson, My 1.6.1 "Navigation - Solar System Browser" contains: Jupiter = 7 duplicate files, Saturn = 5 dupes, Uranus = 10 dupes, Neptune = 9 dupes, and lower on the scroll down of that list there are 10 additional duplications. I've everything I could think of, Extras, Textures, Data, Mo...

Okay, this should be the jpg of Metis

I need some help here, not being a social network kind of guy. I've captured the image, displayed it with LViewPro, but for the life of me I can't get it to appear in the box. Help me if you can I'm feeling down, and I do appreciate your being around...

Selden, what I did was I downloaded the 1.6.1 version to a brand new flash drive, copied my old add-ons (extras, textures, data, and models), that to the best of my knowledge where working perfectly, to the flash drive and went from there. When I started the 1.6.1 "Navigation - Solar System Bro...

In 1.6.1 (Navigation - Solar System Browser) Mercury, Metis, Adraster, and Thede, at that point I figured I went far enough, these bodies have tumors growing out of two sides. Has there been a correction for this problem that I missed??? Any solution would be appreciated.... eafbsd

Frank,
