Celestia Forums

I found one more problem: the new qt build has a low fps problem, it is somehow '"lagging". Celestia 1.6.1 is seamless on the same spot with no fps problem or any lagging. The win version of the new build is much better in this regard, but not as smooth as the 1.6.1 version. As I wrote ear...

OK, thanks, I will try it!

Nice work!

OK, I didn't know that. Anyway, not that important...

OK, here are the screenshots:

I mean fading orbits are not working...

Considering the old bugs: the new build works just fine!

New bug: in the qt version (64 bit) partial trajectories are not working...

cartrite, The cone and the sphere should be BLACK, because it has no texture at all.

The original problem was that the cmod files were totally transparent or invisible.

If you see anything, even a black silhouette, it is good. It works then.

Nice!

Yes, you need another sphere to have an inner surface.

Try this Dyson-sphere from Motherload, it has inner surface:

onetwothree, Here is another bug.

Maybe it is the same problem.

Large cmod objects around stars (megastructures) are also invisible.

Here is an ssc file (problem2). If you search for one2 in the Solar System, you will find it, but the cmod file is invisible - again.

onetwothree , I have fixed Celestia to show them. But they are shown only if their parent body is visible. Is such behaviour is ok for everybody? Thank you very much! :clap: Visible parent bodies are OK, but I use a lot of invisible barycenters to build multiple star systems. I hope it cannot be a ...

pirogronian, Thanx, I will sign up.

OK, thanks.

The problem is not the location, but the invisible cmod file. You can see the location, the right radius, but it is invisible...

They have huge cmod files, hundreds of MB.

But this simple, very small cone won't work either.

Should I write to Onetwothree?

I have many cities on the surface of planets and moons, They just disappeared, both in the win and the qt version.

The win version has many other problems but the qt version works nicely - apart from this problem...

Yes, I wrote about it a few weeks ago. This is the same problem.

There is definitely a problem with surface features in the new build.

I made a small ssc file with a cmod cone to prove it.

Extract the attached file in the extras folder.

Go to Earth, hit enter and type "one1".

Celestia will find the object, but it is invisible.

I hope the diffuse function is still working, it is essential for building large scale diffuse structures around other models.

Onetwothree, yes, of course, I will try to do that!

Right now I'm looking for more bugs.

+ 2. bug: a Dyson-sphere 3d model with 1 AU radius totally disappeared, it is invisible (in the 'qt' version).

Thanks, Lafuente_Astronomy! In the "qt" version, it works now! I just had to CHECK the "Moons" box! Strange. The "win" version exe file does not work well in this regard, there are no moons in it. By the way, why are there 2 exe files? + new bug: I have big cities on th...

1.) The invisible Moon problem is a persistent bug in Windows 10, under any circumstances. 2.) The Earth illumination problem cannot be detected with the "base" low definition Celestia textures. But if you use HD Earth virtual textures (normal, surface, night, cloud maps), it resurfaces. :...
