    Currently impossible, but they could try sending 3 - from each of the EBU associate members TV networks: ABC, CBS, NBC. :P

    Humor Eurovision Song Contest 2017.

    Yeah. But this time it is no special invitation from the country/city hosting the contest, but by some reference group panel. The rules have changed last year to make more countries eligible for participating, like Australia, China, USA, and it looks like Australia might be more permanent...

    Humor Eurovision Song Contest 2017.

    We in Poland apparently will be choosing our candidate this Saturday. I just listened to proposed songs, and there's rather nothing that will do better than in earlier years (excluding 1994): a few ballads that don't stand out from other productions of this kind, a few songs in the "Eurovision...

    Humor Eurovision Song Contest 2017.

    Wow. I wasn't expecting this thread here so early this year. :P I wasn't much interested in listening to / watching this year's Eurovision, as I have different plans for that time, but this is getting interesting... I almost feel sorry I won't be watching the contest live... unless it's delayed...

    Passengers movie (SPOILERS thread)

    I saw it at the beginning of January right before the Rogue One (just because I noticed it's played 2 hours earlier in another hall of the same cinema). I saw a trailer already some time ago, but it wasn't on my "must to see" list and I probably would miss it if it wasn't on the same day as Star...

    How i can convert .tex file to png?

    Yes, ring is just an arc, in level 1, 2, 3 of the TEX file. Higher levels aren't taken. Orbiter mirrors it multiple times around the planet (level 1 x8, level 2 x12, level 3 x16) this way. The texture extractor will extract all 3 levels of the ring textures just fine as they are stored in the...

    How i can convert .tex file to png?

    Tune Your Planet will work only for legacy level 1-8 textures. The ring textures will be extracted by it just fine, as they contain just first 3 levels in the same layout as planetary textures.

    SSU Development thread (4.0 to 5.0) [DEVELOPMENT HALTED DUE TIME REQUIREMENTS!]

    Actually, simply try the "Right Alt" if you have US international keyboard. Here, very few (international QWERTY) keyboard manufacturers print AltGr on that key, or at least those which layouts I choose (I choose a long backspace, a big enter, backslash/pipe next to shift under enter), yet when...
