Software News : Celestia for AmigaOS4

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?

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 ! Bill
