I've been using Celestia for about a month, but I still can't figure out how to install higher res textures. I have the 8k from the Texture Foundry, but I can't get it working properly. All I see on the Earth is the standard medres texture. Help!

you need to edit the solarsys.ssc file so the linethat says texture "earth.jpg" (or whatever) so it agrees with hte texture you are tring to use

I tried that, but it still didn't work. This is very strange, for the texture not to be working.

well, did you check to make sure the texture is a power of 2 (512x1024, 1024x2048, 2048x4096, ect.)?

Since the most common fix doesn't help, you will have to provide us with full details of *exactly* what you are trying to do. You'll need to include the exact file names, directory names, as well as your hardware and software cofiguration. There are many things that might be going wrong. Asking us to guess what you're doing is a waste of everyone's time.
