Subject: searching custom screendumps of starry night 6, Thesky6
|
Hi,
I would like to buy "Starry Night Pro 6" or "TheSky6 Serious Astronomer
Edition" that looks on par.
I know products from bisque and siennasoft for decades, performances of
these products, requirements, but not all details of the screen layout,
the
realism of (custom) landscapes, gradation of sunset, settings, and
stars
appearance (I stopped buying them at v5)
If you are using these products (no other version), could you contact
me ?
I would like to ask you some details and to send me some hires
screenshoots
simulating 3 night skies so that I could compare the results with
simulations I did with other products or older versions.
If you agree, give me the URL of your website where I can find your
email. I
will send you my specifications (location, time, etc) for the
simulation.
Thanks in advance
Thierry
Have a clear and dark sky.

Hi:
Feel free to email me concerning The Sky 6 if you wish, and I'll be
very happy to email you screenshots, etc., but you'll find plenty of
screenshots here:

You can read my review of 6 here:
http://www.buytelescopes.com/container.asp?dest=/uncle_rod/archive3.htm
This review applies to both "Professional" and "Serious Astronomer."
I think The Sky 6 is probably about the "best" when it comes to
planetarium programs. That said, if you just want realism, you best bet
is probably Starry Night Pro PLUS. The Sky 6 is pretty darned
realistic-looking, however, and will allow you to use digital images of
your very own horizon (mine is, instead set up for Prude Ranch...I find
that inspirational ;-))...
I've used Starry Night...sure...but The Sky seems to be a better fit
for me.
Peace,
Rod Mollise
