JackDole, I think you used the specular map for the bump map. Sorry for the confusion! Here it is if you want to try again. I tried removing the city lights texture+the code for it, but the error message still showed up.
But I have no height differences. (Mountains, river valleys)
And I have no error messages in my log file.

YOS! "E.G.G.M.A.N."
First of all, all of your quotes are wrong. You have these characters: “ ”, and you must have these characters: ".
Second, I think the path is wrong. In my opinion he has to be: "GGJ/Tester/Tester.cfg". As far as I know, SpaceEngine searches automatically in all "models\spacecraft" directories that are in 'addons' and its subdirectories. Try this:
And make sure Windows does not put '.txt' behind the '.sss'. It may make this invisible if "Hide Extensions of known file types" is enabled in the folder options.

Weird because I copied this from the tutorial and only made slight edits like changing the name, so it should be correct...

Now I did change that!

I checked and the .txt is after the .sss And it seems it still doesn't work, do you think it's my computer or do you want to see the right se.log file with the right .sss
se.log

The file name must be Tester.sss without .txt extension at the end.

How do I get rid of it? I tried to rename it but it would only let me change everything else.
If you couldn't follow these instructions that I linked in a previous post, like you said, I'm afraid your computer could have other issues

Propulsion Disk, in the file browser, you have to go to the View tab at the top and then checkbox the option "File name extensions." Then you can delete the existing .txt and put .sss

That's the problem. I think all of these sample scripts in the manual have these wrong quotes. But I have no idea why that is.

Would someone be able to write a tutorial or something on how to prevent the bad quotes from being formed when you type them on the keyboard?

There is no automatic substitution of straight quotes in curly quotes in Microsoft Notepad nor Notepad++. As far as I remember, there could be such a feature enabled in Microsoft Word, but working on simple text files with that, or OpenOffice/LibreOffice, it's something nobody would really recommend ever. It's not a problem when you type SE code, it becomes a problem when you copy and paste the code from the website manual, though. The issue about curly quotes on that code has been reported. There are other small errors on that bunch of examples, which periodically resurface on this thread because of copy-pasting. Personally I'm working on an epub/pdf version of the manual which could also help people that could find reading the online version a bit difficult/distracting. I'm proofreading the text.

Does anyone know how I make a black hole with jets. Like the one from HarbingerDawn's video:
Well the CometTall tag would probably be used. But I do not know if need to put the parameters. Example:
You have to change the ParentBody to the name of your black hole.
But that only works with SE 0.980. It does not work with SE 0.980_e! At least not with me.
As a texture you need a picture without pixels. Name it 'Invisible.png' and put it in 'addons\textures\planets'. (It should also work without texture.)
