Seems in pre 5 theres a problem with approaching all emissives...The program crashes with a memory reference error...The memory could not be read...probably corrupted is why...
Also the star types are missing from the star browser...
I reinstalled pre 3 and no more errors...

Are there any emissives in the base Celestia package? If not, could you name a few add-ons so I can see if I have one to try this with?

This is fixed in the current CVS, so it should be in the next pre-release.

It would help if I had my addons available...but you could try the M4 pulsar addon with the white dwarf...or my recent addon from christmas and go to kolob...
or just place Emissive true on one of the planets in Celestia and go to it...
I dont think this is a driver issue as I have the latest invidia drivers...

I'm trying to teach the cavemen how to play scrabble, its uphill work. The only word they know is Uhh and they dont know how to spell it!
Thanks for the tip Rassilon. I just made Jupiter Emissive and flew to it and around it. Also tried all rendering paths. No problems. I used a CVS build from March 2nd.
My graphics card is an ATI 9700, so I'm also using the following line in celestia.cfg, because my card doesn't handle this very good:
IgnoreGLExtensions [ "GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object" ]
Hopefully, someone else will have some ideas.

fwiw, it doesn't happen to me either.
I made the Earth "Emissive true", went from Mars to the ISS and cranked time upto 100x. All is happy. At the moment, I have only the standard solar system objects defined, although there are more than a few "Nebula" objects in the background.
I also made Saturn, its rings, and Pandora Emissive and went to them in separate tests. No crash. The rings don't glow, though
System:
256MB 500MHz P3, WinXP Pro SP1
128MB GF4 Ti4200, Nvidia drivers v53.03
Celestia v1.3.2pre5 (and 4)

Well again I tried pre 5 with a fresh install and it seems that there is no issue with emissives in the solar system but any emissives I have created now seem to be a bit unstable in newer versions...Today the bug pops up when I approch the surface...look to the horizion...and look up at a 45 degree angle and leave the surface of the emissive...2 times in a row mind you...The first time doesnt crash...This is far too intermittent to be a hardware problem...
Pre 3 does not crash when I do it 5 times...or ten...so if anyone else is having this problem with my addons please say so so we can get this fixed...otherwise I am doomed to using no more future versions of Celestia...

Rassilon,
Evidently there are still some bugs in the new 3D model code introduced in pre3. The code itself is used for all types of 3D models, not just for the CMOD meshes. Some bugs are going to be harder to track down than others.
If you can provide the program counter values where one or more of the crashes happens, that might help Chris to locate the problematic code. Of course, it'll be easier to track down if you can get it to fail reliably and can provide a simple way to reproduce the crash. It sounds like that'll be hard to do, though.

This is the output of the debugger in Visual C++
Unhandled Exception in 09D0B8EE
09D0B8EE mov edi,dword ptr [esi]
Thats the asm code above...
Its quite simple to reproduce the error...Use ther kaukobeam addon...go to kolob or any of the other emissives use ctrl and left mouse button and go to surface straight in...drag left mouse button till you see only the sky and ctrl left mouse button out from the emissive...This may be quite wierd but it doesnt happen in pre 2 which leads me to believe its the new way Celestia handles meshes...
