Celestia Forums

I've installed the celestia.exe file that converts 1.3.1 to 1.3.1.1, and from that moment I'm unable to see orbits.
Anyone found the same problem?
I'm asking because I changed many things in my Celestia HD environment, so I'm not so sure that the problem depends from the new upgrade or from my celestia.
Thanks

If you are talking about the file I have on my website, it's simply the EXE copied from a normal celestia-1.3.1-1 installation. The code is AFAIK exactly the same as in 1.3.1 - the only change is the inclusion of Lua-support, everything else should be the same as before.

So it's probably something else

Yes Harry, the .exe file is the one from your page.
But did you find any problem in showing orbits?
I mean, 1.3.1. was showing for me, now 1.3.1.1 doesn't.
Thank you and by soon.

I can't test it myself right now, but I am pretty sure orbits where fine the last time I used it. And I guess a lot of people would have complained if orbits didn't work in 1.3.1-1 .

Could you try writing this into a script-file (like test.celx), run it in celestia and tell us if this works?


There is the possibility that the configuration dialog and celestia get out of sync during execution of scripts.

Code: Select all

celestia:show("orbits")

Harry, this is for me "The stupid man's day".
I made the mistake to consider "orbits" as "flags" and not as "labels", so I didn't check this in the "View" options.
This was my stupid error.
Sorry for the time you wasted, next time I'll pay more attention.
The only excuse I can have, I hope, is that English is not my language, so that many times I misunderstand something.
By and thank you again.

No problem. And as english isn't my native tongue either, I now and then probably write pretty incomprehensible stuff
