StarGenerator database unavailable
« on: 2011 October 03 04:17:21 »
The StarGenerator module requires a database. In http://pixinsight.com/forum/index.php?topic=1366.msg8480#msg8480, the location of the database is named as http://pixinsight.com/export/StarGenerator/PPMX.bin. All I get there is a HTTP Error 404.

I still had a copy deep in my archives. I submitted this bug report to highlight the fact that non-existing documentation is still a problem (in this case, a hint in the bubble help of StarGenerator would be all that is needed), especially if the non-existing documentation is wrong  ;)
