Celestia Forums

Hello!

I recently started messing around with Celestia again (I had enjoyed it long ago and was feeling nostalgic..)
Anywho, I've been trying to add some new solar systems via the Add-Ons page, but when I open Celestia the new worlds are there but featureless. Bare white balls floating in space with solid white rings and crap, no textures to them.

For the sake of example, let's go with the fictitious planetary system around the star called Wezen, which is the one I've been having troubles with. I did exactly what it said to do, extracted all the files into a folder called Wezen in my extras folder. The planets are all there, they are just featureless white or blue balls, which isnt very interesting ^_^;

Any help with what I may be doing wrong would be greatly appreciated.

The globes being white means that Celestia can't find their surface texture image files. There are many different possible causes for the problem. A list of some of them with possible fixes is at http://www.lepp.cornell.edu/~seb/celest ... tro.html#6
In particular, see item #2 in the list.
