Gemini without colors

[celestrom hayabusa]

Hello, I have a model of the gemini ship in their respective folder extras with their files and this model is new, I came with a pak of textures that I put in your textures-medres folder but when loading the celestia and visiting the ship I get the Model not as a bubble or without anything but appears black, colorless what can be happening? Or better how do I make it appear with its normal colors? Thank you.

There are many different problems which could cause this.

Please provide the files which make up your Gemini addon in a zip file so others can investigate what's happening.

i take it you are not aware that you posted LINKS to the images and NOT THE IMAGES !!!

This is apple so files with a __ in front of the name are 229 BIT links

Code: Select all

also your mesh "Gemini_carbajal.3ds" is using TIF images and not png images
-- extracted from the binary 3ds using a hex editor
TEXTUREU.TIF
TEXTURET.TIF
TEXTUREB.TIF
TEXTUREC.TIF

see the problem
all cap 16 bit 8.3 file names ( think windows 95 and earlier )


now the original " shrox.com " 3d mesh from the 1980's ( yes it is that OLD) uses colored vertexes
there are no textures needed

More simply:

Use JPEG or PNG surface texture images, not TIF. TIF image format is not supported by Celestia.
