Martin and Christophe,

Thanks very much guys... This is a beautiful model and I appreciate
the effort here. Absolutely beautiful....

Bob? I see no "flickering" on my Vista installation. Just FYI.

Thanks again, Brain-Dead

Could it be a memory problem? Do you have any flickering when my last soyuz is on screen?

That's odd; soyuz use some much more textures; now they were in dds, here it's jpeg... but... How can you get some textures problems if Spitzer is far away from any bodies?? Do you have such problem even before going to Spitzer?

Apparently Bob's (Hundley not Hegwood) problem is not related to the model; anyway, if someone get any problems, please report!

Just FYI...

I have been in the process of UN-messing up the Motherlode, so
have another look under the spacecraft "Earth-Orbit" section and
see what you think. I have downloaded and installed every add-on
listed in that section, and I have added accurate descriptions of what
each add-on does to the explanations.

See if you think that it is any better now...

I fully intend to go through EVERY download on the ML, and update
the explanations. As to response times, Ulrich is still the man in charge
and he is very busy with other things right now. As I get to know
more about what I'm doing, perhaps he'll give me some more
ability to respond to ML customers. :wink:

At any rate, the place is getting some attention now, so please
bear with us. All suggestions appreciated.

Thanks, Brain-Dead

Cham,
IIRC your latest uploads (Europa structure & Magnetic dwarfs) were online within 15 minutes (Europa structure)
and 20 minutes (Magnetic dwarfs) after you've uploaded them. Why do you complain?

The existing add-ons are getting some more attention now by Bob and we will do a "spring clean".
Please be patient and do not hesitate to upload your new add-ons (to increase the quality more and more).
