Hi

There's a cel that replaces the default opening .cel. Does anyone know where this can be found? Are there any others out there?

Thanks

Any cel file can be used as a start cel. You just have to rename it to "start.cel", without the quotes. Before you do so, however, be sure that you rename the original start.cel to something like "start (Original).cel", so that you can restore to your original start cel.

Hope this answers your question.

By the way I've put the punctuation marks outside of the quote marks for clarity.

You can also download a very complete, and revised start.cel file from the
Motherlode or from my web
site.

Take care, Bob

Thanks, Bob!

That's the one that I was looking for. Ran across it earlier, loved it, but lost it due to an xp restore!

Can you describe this cel?

Was written by Mr. Don Goyette, and then revised by myself...

Contains its own documentation describing everything you can change as
Celestia starts up. The current version runs through all of the settings you'd
like to have Celestia using, then it opens Celestia with a quick trip to the
Sun, and then to Planet Earth.

This is just a larger, and more complete version of the start.cel which comes
with Celestia.

Take care, Bob
