General Question Change star texture

[EhTAmiD]

Is there only one dds file for star texture (star.dds)? Can I change it to another file by editing <starname>.cfg or some other config file? The goal is to have separate star images form any given system and thus scenario file.

Just the one.

Orbiter doesn't support multiple star systems. I believe the file is star.dds

Actually, it seems like Orbiter supports multiple star systems (one per scenario at best), but doesn't support multiple stars. Anyway, thanks for the answer.

And as you can't dynamically load star systems on the fly my answer stands.

You can replace star.dds with a different one and it will work. There are alternate sun textures on OrbitHangar, and [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=1078"]Msss MFD[/ame] temporarily replaces star.dds when loading its random solar systems to have different types of stars.

Many thanks to 2552 for pointing at Msss MFD! It looks like the very thing I was looking for.
