Wow that's awesome @srekeverything i was looking for. You saved me, really. i'm thankful for what you've done, it would take a lifetime for me to do this 🤣 what puzzles me now is to figure out how to associate the positions to real data in ephemerides. If you have any tips on this one for me i'd be grateful as well

Yeah I use R14 version. I've sent the file at the previous reply, if it is not working let me know

Tried to open it and nothing appears in the hud i can only see the python tag, this way is much more difficult to me i don't know anything about programming haha. But thank you very much for trying to help. by the way my aproach also is a data driven project to simulate eclipses and stuff

@sreki have the scale in km and already did everything you told me to, i've created the nulls objects, placed them in the center, put the planets at place as well but i'm having a hard time to insert the data in xpresso (sorry i'm a beginner in C4D and i'm really challenging myself, spent the whole afternoon trying to get it done haha), could you help me out on this? here's the file Solar_System.c4d

i've gotta learn the easiest first haha, so in circles would be fine. i have the epherimerides from Nasa's site (in CSV files) but i don't know how to setup in c4d.. it don't need to be realistic, i'd be happy if it only works with the right positions 😁 like this animation if you ask

how to animate would be easier? i just wanted to replicate the movements the planets do but with actual data.

hello there! I'm working on a solar system simulation using Nasa's JPL data, and i'm struggling to find out how to put all planets, moons and sun in place and motion..any help would be great
