Thought It would be intresting to know how peoples like you and me found out this program
My case-Last month i was checkin a magazine's CD which i got 2 years ago, and noticed the openuniverse program, then installed it and found great, so visited the website
http://www.openuniverse.org, but there the creator said, he is now focusing on celestia, so i followed that link, and found CELESTIA- The greatest program that i have ever used apart from the
Verbot
Now i can only give a HUGE thanks to Chris Laurel and the celestia development team,

Okay NOW I remember! My dad told me about it sometime when I was in 6th grade...if you wanna know the closet time you can get to exact, then 2 days before Neptune (or was it Uranus?) and 2 of it's moons lined up, and since that was when I was in 6th grade (it may actually have even been over the summer vacation before actually going to 6th grade but that doesn't change the fact that I was a 6th grader then) and I'm in 8th grade now, that was in the year...ummm...*does intense thought and makes a bunch of pointless calculations*...2003 I think...*attempts to check answer*...*gets stuck trying to do an impossible math problem with 1,000,000,000 different answers*...*gives up and falls asleep on cat, then gets scratched, says oh well and falls asleep on cat again*

Hi, Bluespace
I find that verbot uses ms agents, and i want to share a ms-agent (character), -i made it-:
Agent Brain
Has 2 operations: to speak and read.

I was Googling images of planets, found some excellent ones on this site, so now I've downloaded Celestia, and will start stuffing around making my own solar systems asap.

I asked what Eburacum45 was using to render his planets

I was reading an issue of Discover magazine in late 2004, when I came across an article about Celestia. It sounded very interesting, so I downloaded it and got hooked.

Glad to be of service!
As for me, I was googling for images of the exoplanet around Gliese 876 while I was writing this worldbuilding page;

but I must have had two or three word-of-mouth recommendations as well shortly after.

Hi Jmos, i got attacked with a damn group of virus , and got FEVER,
Thanks for sharing your agent with us, did you used Msagent Charatcter Creator 2.0? for it, i too am looking to build one, but i am not able to past the 256 color restriction
also i have posted some ideas on the verbots forum i think you can help in those

Hi Bluespace!
I too had same problem to build characters due to the 256 color restriction, but too i constructed "cerebro.acs" due to its noncomplicated colors.
Exist a commercial version (the CyberBuddy Character Builder) at
cyberbuddy page
I think that would be interesting to make a guide with
Verbot or
MASH (Microsoft Agent Scripting Helper) for celestia 1.3.2 or 1.4.0 based on ms-characters.

i have built a knowledge base including details about the planets in our solar system

oh sorry i forget to introduce the VERBOT to celestia community
Verbot is a program which is basically a chattterbot type application ( Created by
Conversive.Inc ), but indeed have got some other strong power like automatic learning in the advanced version
anyone can chat (type questions) with it and the Verbot will reply to that in natural voice using MSAGENTS
the link for the VERBOT Program is
