Problem with German Translation of 1.3.2 and Stars Database

Post #1by fox » 26.10.2004, 19:48

Hello,

i downloaded the "german-patch" from http://www.celestia.de.vu/ before some minutes. I already had Celestia installed in English, and wanted to give the Translation a Try. But when i want to start Celestia Now, she gives following Fatal Error:
Cannot Read Star Database

any idea?

(Before i installed the patch, celestia runs fine.. extremely good :)

Hi fox,

did you change the star.dat version?

See also 4th anf 5th post at http://www.shatters.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6062

Or did you download the wrong "patch"-version ???
Make sure to use the 1.3.2-patch if you're using Celestia 1.3.2 or
to use the 1.3.1.-patch if you're still using Celestia 1.3.1. :idea:

No, that was not my intention. But a wrong usage could have been a possible cause.
Because nobody ever never reported problems with my german-patches.
So I guess, there must be a problem with your installation or system. But I can't imagine any clues what went wrong on your system.

Hm, you will break your teeth. Because I am a stone laying around on mars. Only this strange rover from earth caused a circular scratch on my surface. :wink:
