How do you load a script

Post #1by barp » 11.04.2002, 16:13

I wanted to play around creating some new scripts to do auto fly arounds, but have not been able to see where you would select a script to run. I may be missing it completely, I saw where you could select the Demo to run, but can't find anywhere to load a custom script. I am running the Windows version.

Thanks.

A very ugly way to do this is to alter the start-up script. A better way is to try the preview of version 1.2.4, which is available, I think, somewhere on one of these forums. It will let you load a custom script (apparently, I haven't tried it).

Celestia 1.2.4 will have a load script option in the File menu. You can download a prerelease version for Windows here:

One warning--there's a bug in this version related to ringed planets and eclipse shadows that causes crashes on some systems.
