see my post at 2010-11-16 "Planets black not textured in space-orbit game" Question #134256
It is as follows: I am a neophyte to computer gaming and can't figure out how to make the planets and moons visible. I can crash into them so they're not "hidden". According to the orbit.log the textures seem to load upon start of the game. I am using space-orbit 1.01-10build1 on ubuntu 10.10 64 bit. I am using nvidia driver 260.19.06 64bit. I am using 2 nvidia gts250 video cards in sli. The following is the orbit.log for the first few seconds of play. The textures SEEM to load.
