Planets textures are warping out of shape

Post #1by Voyager » 12.10.2003, 03:35

When I start up Celestia, select and go to any planet. The planet appears to be all warped out of shape. The Atmoshere of the planet (if it has one) is still Round, but the texture for that planet is the part that is warped and it doesn't appear to attached to the planet. None of the stars seem to have this problem. Planets like Amalthea, Phobos and Deimos, with there own custom shape, appear to display just fine. Just round planets have this problem.
I use a 64MB graphics card
I have just got a new computer which could be the problem.

Please see the "preliminary user's FAQ" at the top of the users forum, especially Q1/A1 and Q2/A2. "New" computers usually do not come with current software since they usually were put together several months ago.
