Cham's Addons (download links)
Posted: 25.11.2009, 18:40
I finally have access to a good file server (thanks to Frank). So I'll post links to new addons here. Take note that I'll update the first message of this thread from time to time with some new links, so stay tuned. Expect LOTS of addons from here ! 
TRANSLATION NOTICE : All my addons are using some French strings (SSC, STC, DSC, and CELX files). I don't have time to translate everything to any other language, so it's the responsability of the user to edit the files by himself. Don't forget to open/save the files under the UTF-8 file format. Translation is up to you. The addons are free, so translation is a small fee to pay
All the addons published here were made with Celestia 1.6 in mind. Many of them are using the "layers" and "multi-layers" concept that I introduced some times ago, so the addons may not work properly with an older version of Celestia.
DISCLAIMER : I'm in no way responsible for any troubles you may experience on your computer, file lost, etc. Use at your own risk.
COPYRIGHT : All the addons published here are copyrighted works. You may NOT use the files from the addons for ANY commercial activities. The addons are available freely for personal uses and educational activities only.
Of course, feedback, opinions and suggestions are welcome here.
Have fun !
