if so, what do i edit/modify in the files to force celestia to render stars and planets that far out on 1.6.1?

and how do i do that without breaking celestia or any of my modified files like addons, textures and other stuffSevenSpheres wrote:You would have to modify the source code and recompile Celestia.

how do i back up my files so i can add them to 1.7 because during the time my 1.6.1 broke and i had to reinstall it and i backed up my files those got messed up, like it replaced my textures with the junky default ones, and deleted lots of my addons in the backup files (i put my backups in a different location from where i installed celestiaSevenSpheres wrote:I don't recommend doing it at all. It's much easier to set up Celestia 1.7, as described in the thread I linked.

but why did reinstalling 1.6.1 to fix my issue mess up my backups witch i put on my desktopSevenSpheres wrote:Just put 1.7 in a different folder than the one you use for 1.6.

(i had my celestia installed in my documents, not the desktop [which was] where my backup files were)
so how do i make it so it doen't happen when i install 1.7.0SevenSpheres wrote:I don't know. That certainly shouldn't happen.

and is it safe to have 2 functioning celestia installs?
so they shouldn't mess with each other textures, addons, and other data files as long there not in the same spot?Anthony_B_Russo10 wrote:Multiple Celestia installs can coexist provided they are installed to different folders.
so what do you think caused the 1.6.1 reinstall to fix a issue to mess up my backup files which was not in the same location as where i was installing the new 1.6.1 into?Anthony_B_Russo10 wrote:Yes
