Celestia Forums

I've been having some problem running scripts. Well, not some problems - I can't get them to run. I download the script files (with .celx extensions), go under the file menu, and select "Run Script..." then navigate to the script file... but Celestia tells me "Invalid Script File: Please verify that you selected a valid script file".

I've had this problem with every single script I have. Am I missing something or is this a Mac OS X issue?

Thanks,
Steve

That's what the code says if the lua libraries are not properly installed...

Thanks Fridger... I'm guessing the installation of the lua (?) libraries - or lack thereof - is a compiling-level issue (meaning something the person compiling Celestia for OS X needed to include)? Because I simply downloaded the Mac version, mounted the image, and dragged the files into my application directory - per the instructions. But if this is an "already-compiled...now install on your computer issue" does anyone know if there's something I missed in the installation? Or is the LUA thing a total 3rd party bit of code I need to install?
