Software News : Celestia for AmigaOS4
Posted by afxgroup on 2009/4/5 15:18:14 (2152 reads) News by the same author

Hi,
This is a Port of Celestia for AmigaOS4

You will find all informations about Celestia on the official site:

http://www.shatters.net/celestia/

Resized Image


This package contains only minimal objects, so maybe you have to download all other stuff searching with google

The window resolution is set too 800x600 and should be usable to all our Video Card.
Don't use really high resolution or you will encounter an "Out of Memory" error.

Thanks to Hans de Ruiter for its *HUGE* work on the MiniGL (required to run Celestia correctly).

Regards,
Andrea Palmat?

Yeah. Can't said that it 'madness fast' on 1ghz, but usable for sure. Video of Celestia in action on my peg2/aos41: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWg_rXsrbWU

Downloading now. It will be interesting to see an alternative astronomy application for OS4

 User Manual - Re: Celestia for AmigaOS4
Any chance of a user manual ?

I know you can download a huge PDF which I did, but a lot of that refers to Windows and Mac versions and mentions menu options that do not exist in this version.

How about adding a small Amiga Guide telling what keys work with the Amiga version.

It looks very fancy but I have no idea what to do with it yet !

 Re: User Manual - Re: Celestia for AmigaOS4
it is hard to find a manual, but there are a lot of website that shown how celestia works and i don't think there are so many differences between mac, windows and os4.. except the menu :)
we should know how to configure it via config file and what are all key bindings

@afxgroup

What is the minimum I need to keep it from GR'ing at startup?

Edit: The log says it's crashing in Warp3D.library. Mine's version 53.1. Would you like to look at my crashlog?
