Getting Started with Star Generator
« on: 2012 April 27 19:57:13 »
I'm trying to use the Star Generator to develope reference images for registration on a Windows XP 64 bit and Windows 7 64 bit machines. Is there a video tutorial? How can I download the Star Generator data base? I've tried but have had no luck. Thanks

Thanks for the info, however, my computers will not download bin files. Any recommendations? Thanks.

Your "computers will not download bin files." ???  Using a browser, left-click on the link and use the "save file as..." Place the PPMX.bin file at a fixed location (mine is in an /Applications/Astronomy folder) and use that directory in the Star Generator process.
