Anyone can make a galaxy model with this type ? It is Amatens in Celestus
Image
I try but the galaxy render is bad :
Amatens.jpg
Amatens
I use the SBb1 texture and model and add arms.

Amatens.sc :
Galaxy "Amatens" // The name of the galaxy
{
    Type "SBb" // Hubble classification type

    Quat (0 0 0 1) // orientation quaternion

Does someone want a 16K Map of Saturn? Cassini made huge steps, and i think would be great to have a hi-res map of the poles and the storms like in these picture:

These seem pretty good, I suggest you to partecipate in some discussions so you can reach 10 posts, then you make your own thread about your textures in this section :D

I agree with XBrain130,you should get a bit more active, share some screenshots in the image dump, and after you get to 10 posts make a thread for your addons, they're pretty good.

Anyone planning to make a mod about the EBLM J0555-57 system ? It's a triple star system, some info on it https://astronomynow.com/2017/07/12/sma ... tronomers/ , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBLM_J0555-57.

Luckily for you, I made that system last month.

Hello I would like Minecraft font in SpaceEngine.

If possible yes then you can make Minecraft font texture into SpaceEngine here is http://www.dafont.com/minecraftia.font
Nobody wants make minecraft font into SpaceEngine i can't make Minecraft font myself into SpaceEngine :(
You can change SpaceEngine font to Minecraft font using win1250,win1251 and win1254 texture

Link for Minecraft font is on quote

Everything are modified textures but not fonts

Your script is not quite correct.
The distance between component A and component B is 479 AU. This means that the SemiMajorAxis of the orbits around the center is only about half as large. Not exactly the halves, since the components have different masses.

I have made some changes to your script.

Whoops, looks like I mixed up.

One question tho, why you kept the ~90° inclination while using the Ecliptic RefPlane? You know, A-Ab eclipse each other, so they need the Extrasolar RefPlane if you're gonna keep that inclination value.

Honestly, I do not know what this 'Extrasolar' reference plane actually refers to.
But for star Ab, an inclination of 89.84 is given. In my opinion this can only refer to the "Ecliptic" reference plane.
So I chose a similar inclination for the actual system because it seems to me to be the most realistic. Of course this can be wrong, but obviously there is no more data. I have at least not found any.

Honestly, I do not know what this 'Extrasolar' reference plane actually refers to.
It's a reference plane where (as seen from the Solar System) 0° is vertical and 90° is edge-on. It's convenient for use about extrasolar orbits (hence the name), so it's used by most scientific papers of this kind as far as I know.
This is why transiting planets always have an inclination value within one degree from 90.
