Nice 🙂

Looking at the agricultural worlds makes me wonder why oceans on alien planets seem always to be green. Has anyone found an Earth-like planet with blue oceans?

I never met a planet like earth, with the same kind of blue and green. There are planets with similar atnosphere and similar yellow sunlight, but they never look like earth.

Miranda's Grave, in Tau Ceti, is quite Earth-like.

Looking at fluffyfreak's pictures, I cant help thinking,...It's Shrinking!!! :girlcrazy:

@ Tichy, Tau Ceti is one of the local stars, defined in 02_local_stars.lua. I wonder if that has anything to do with it. Anyway, I'm heading over there to check it out the next time I'm able to launch! :biggrin:

I just installed Scout+ and these are some very known places near home. 🙂

Scout mission to Dione

I just launched from Discovery Base when I saw a ship approaching.

Getting closer... Maybe too close :prankster:

Staring contest!

I lost... Ok... back to my mission :biggrin:

I see no piccies?

I see no piccies?

me too  :O  🙁

:O I they were there... I saw them!

Ok. I'll upload them again.

uhm... I just refreshed the page and they appeared again. uhmm...

EDIT: re uploaded 🙂

Sorry Tichy, but there's still a problem. They try to load as links, but when I click them the picture window pops up and infinitely tries to load them.

:resent:

I changed them with links.

That did it. They were worth the wait. Beautiful!

OK, so I grabbed the newest (06 2013) version and started snapping a bunch of shots from Saturn's atmosphere but now I can't find them. I'm going back in to see if I can do a scoop with the sun in a better position relative to the rings... but I can't find the actual pictures for now. Win32 version running under WINE on Ubuntu 12.04, used ctrl-printscreen and heard the click... I've looked everywhere, including the hidden .wine directory... I'll try it with Vista but my windows wifi drivers are messed up so it'll take some file shuffling and maybe starting out from scratch again.

Anyone got an idea where the new version is putting my pictures so I can post them?

@NeuralKernel

Why not use the Linux version?

The Win32 version will be trying to put them into your "My Documents" folder under your user directory, but if you don't have one then it will probably fail.

If it's succeeding then they should be in the same place as the config.ini, stdout.txt, stderr.txt and opengl.txt files are written too but a subfolder called "screenshots".

I'd use the Linux build though 😉

Fluffy? Your screenies are on deck at ModDB! Wonderful images again people! :girlsmile:

I can't unpack the linux version, either I'm missing something or the file is corrupted (downloaded twice, both failed).

I remember trying the linux version a while ago and switching to the windows version so I'd only need to download once for all platforms...

I'll grab some conventional desktop screenshots with Pioneer in a window, works fine and shows how you can fly in the background while doing other stuff 🙂

OK?

Weird, I just grabbed the 32bit and 64bit linux builds and was able to open them ok on my Windows machine at work (naughty of me) so the archives seem intact.

I did it! I scooped Hercules!!! Got back up to low orbit, too! I was ready to jump to Sol if things got bad, but I did it! I do NOT recommend it outside an emergency situation, small and medium gas giants are still much easier!

I'll try to get a few more from Saturn, it's a MUCH easier flight! 😀

Dipped into Saturn 🙂

The more the gravity pf GasGiant is hight , the more you need to speed relative hight .

and of course flight a hight speed in a thin atmo is more difficult in manual flight.

Since the update of Geneisa i've experiment mores scoppings , and i like the fact that ther is an ( human ) limit for scoop on some hight gravity planets ^^.

Mybe in the futures century thers wher a routine scoop for autopilot  ?  🙂
