ISS Texture Problem, Please Help

Post #1by Cato » 27.08.2006, 05:42

I got the ISS Add-On to run o.k., but when I downloaded the texture file, unzipped it, and placed it in the texture folder of Celestia, it is as if I didn't download the texture file at all. No difference in the ISS. I must be doing something wrong. Probably doesn't make any difference but I am running an Athlon 64, 4400 x2, with a GeForce 7600 GT OC, and 2 gig of ram. Please help. Thanks to all.

Cato,

If you haven't already done so, you might consider looking at the Web page http://www.lepp.cornell.edu/~seb/celest ... intro.html
It describes a way to organize Addons, including an explanation of which files go where.

Actually,I have the same problem.The symbols like NASA and the flags are not in my ISS model.I follow Selden instructions and nothing happened.I even put the ISS11 in a separate folder in Addons and even doing this,the ISS remain bland(basic model).I am using Celestia 1.3.2 and Celestia 1.4.1 and both have the same problem.Can you help me out?

Try to modify the spacecraft.ssc:

Code: Select all

"ISS" "Sol/Earth"
{
   Class "spacecraft"
   Mesh "isscomplete.3ds"  #the default ISS addon name
        .....
Motherboard: Intel D975XBX2
Processor: Intel Core2 E6700 @ 3Ghz
Ram: Corsair 2 x 1GB DDR2 PC6400
Video Card: Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTX 768MB GDDR3 384 bits PCI-Express 16x
HDD: Western Digital Raptor 150GB 10000 rpm

Well,I did this.The model has textures,but it is lacking small details like the US flag,the name of the modules,the NASA logo and so on.It is like the textures in the model are in lores.Strange...
My Portrait of Sun has problems too,because sometimes the proeminences disappeared or almost dissapear.Is it possible that some kind of Celestia configuration is changing automatically?
