Suggestions....

Post #1by Rassilon » 17.08.2005, 04:52

Well Ive been toying with the idea of coming up with a long overdue addon for Celestia and considered for a moment just what people would want to see from me since its been forever in a century since Ive tinkered with Celestia....Ive been deeply involved with a few commercial projects to try to make some money in this godforsaken land of ours....and as everyone am struggling to survive....not the issue here though...

In a vast sea of stars the endless boundries of the imagination can flow freely as the rivers of cosmic dust...the multitude of unexplored and unimaginable wonders leave you as the chooser of this one and mighty addon I will conjure with my mystical powers an infinate sea of possibilities...

Unfortunately the universe decided to destroy the past unreleased addons I kept pushing back in time to release to selden and because of my slow and unwitting procrastination...I lost every fiber of creation including some wonderful models produced by Runar....which Im sure he still has....

I also welcome additions from fellow community members including space stations by Cham would be most welcome....and again some bizzare and alien cities by Runar could contribute to a great undertaking....

I truly wish this to be the best I ever did...So good it will make you cry....

Let the suggestions flow...

Rassilon,

when I was a Celestia noob, almost two years ago, you were my Celestia God with all your nice addons that are now permanent residents of my hard drive (with secure backups !). Today, you are still a legend to me.

Oh PLEASE MAKE ME CRY AGAIN ! LET CREATIVITY SHINES MY LORD ! LET IMAGINATION THROW ITS LIGHT ! HEAR MY PRAYERS FLAGS FLAPPING THROUGH THE INFINITIES ! LET THE DREAMED TIMES FLOW TO CELESTIA !

Absolutement!

Your protostar ideas were part of my inpiration for my Galactic Core model (still WIP, commentary still appreciated, even if bad http://www.celestiaproject.net/forum/viewtopic ... ght=#57654 )
and for my next model already underway, Mira, the wonderful star. (or Omicron Ceti if you want to be picky)... I have the disk and gas cone partially built... http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap050505.html
