hires moon texture

Post #1by Guest » 06.02.2003, 02:16

Where can I get a high resolution texture for the moon (Luna)? I see in the default solarsystem.ssc file that there is a commented line mentioning a moon4k.dss file. I got all the goodies from the texture foundary site but this file isn't there. Does it really exist somewhere?

Which is... [?]
What am I doing? Ah, nothing much. Just laying on my bed, watching the stars, and sky, and keep asking myself: 'Where the Hell is my Roof?'.

Oops!

Pasting the direct link in IE doesn't work (i didn't know) but if you go to ftp://ftp.dasmirnov.net/astronomy/celestia/textures/pixel/ and try download it manually by right clicking you should have no problem. But the best way to download it is by using a ftp program, I've checked right now and the texture is still there :wink:
