Thanks a lot, eburacum45, very nice, even if I prefer a bit less contrast.

Hi eburacum45, your Neptune texture looks interesting, will you share it, please?
Thank you.

You are right, John71, my fault, I was using keyboard commands as shown in the "render" window, and not the cycling "CTRL+s" as given in the Celestia controls instructions. My apologies, but it's a lot of time I'm not checking Celestia... but anyway the "Render" informa...

Hi.
Checking the 64 bit 1.7.1 version, I found that the keyboard commands "Points" (P) and "Fuzzy points" (f) do not work.
Can someone else check it, please?
Thanks.
Goofy

Just a warning: you must too download the file fmod64.dll here
https://apps.alexell.ru/celestia/new-dll/
and copy it in Celestia main directory.
At a first glance the 64 release works very well, appreciated, Alexell, thank you very much!

OMG, Selden, you make an incredibly original thing. I see here many of the addons you made in the past, like Von Braun's ship to Mars etc, that I'm still using in my school courses, but now you show them in such a dynamic way! I'm very pleased for this, and cannot wait to see it completed. Well done...

Hi Frank, try this cel script, it allows some text typing on the screen and changing text while action occurs.
May be it is what you wish.

Hi Frank. Probably I misunderstood what you need, but if I didn't, this works as I understand you requested for: [color=#008040][b]{ select {object "Sol"} goto {time 1.0 distance 50} wait {duration 1} center {} follow {} print { text "Live long and prosper" origin "topleft&q...

Hi Alexell. I absolutely agree journey through space in Celestia is much better than any video, but I'm speaking of other things. E.g., when I show to my students the evolution of continents in the past 400 million years from Pangea to modern times, I'm obliged to show a rapid succession of many ima...

Sorry Alexell, I missed your message #7, and my late reply is yes, exactly that, i.e. showing short videos as overlay (and, if possible, to have the same possibility of positioning them at will on the screen, e.g. center- up-right below-right or so, as for still images with their x-y displacement). ...

Very happy for this, Alexell, appreciated!
Goofy

Obviously, yes yes yes, please!
BTW, mine was simple too:
can you add movies?
Goofy

OK Alexell, good to know it.

Hi Alexell. Vincent Giangiulio made the Celestia 1.6.1 release with sound capability in cel celx scripts (wav and ogg, if i'm not wrong). If you don't have it, I can upload, let me know. I'm absolutely positive with this, and not only for showing the sound of a pulsar, but too to insert ambient musi...

Hi Alexell. Years ago I had Vincent's Celestia MOD with sounds and images, and I and some else used the new release for years with very good results. Just two examples: in my cel script on "Mars" I show the "Martian invasion" as in the old movie "War of the worlds", usi...

Hi John71.
I hope that really Proland will be incorporated in Celestia, it gives a gorgeous rendition of land, clouds, waves, snow and what else...
Please, someone....
Goofy

Hi Don, welcome back!
I'd like to see your shadowing clouds so, please, make those available somewhere.
Thanks a lot.
Goofy

Hi FarGetaNik. Have you seen this threads? http://celestiaproject.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=17315&p=133565&hilit=SATURN+RINGS#p133565 http://celestiaproject.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=9668&hilit=saturn+rings I think you'll find them very interesting. Unfortunately all imag...

I have already been looking at the ability to change orbit colors anyway, this will make a nice addition. Hi Janus. Actually orbit colors change can be done in .cel scripts with a command line like this setlinecolor { item " planetorbits " color [0.43 0.04 0.04] and something similar work...
