Maps2Bgl - Offline alternative to the program TileProxy

Recommended Posts

I have an odd problem :All the tiles get downloaded just fine. However, the process that converts files to TGA (in the Temp folder) creates a pile of BLACK graphic files...so that when I run the batch files it is black in > black out. Consequently I get black areas in my scenery.How can I fix this .jpg to .tga conversion ?Running an x1950 Pro 512 MB with 3.3 GB of system RAM and latest Catalyst drivers...Thanks

For the moment I have unfortunately no solution for the problem. With the version for FSX a white tile is inserted. At these the normal landscape (FSX scenery) will place represented. This possibility does not give it in the FS9 unfortunately.

Dear Gunnard,All is now OK. Apparently the problem was with a particular kml area.The Google captcha form is also working after I restarted windows.thanks a lot for this beautiful program!! and its surely superior to Tileproxy because you can define the limited area and then sim FSX without having slow fps and continuos scenery readingLuis K

I assume, due to google copyright, that we can not share these wonderful sceneries on AVSIM?

But we can share the .kml, .inf, .agn and mask files. The program is so easy to use that the user can then download and compile his own bgl????Johan

Hello,this thread achieved in the meantime enormous dimensions. It becomes increasingly more unclear. I ask for apology, if I not answer for a question.:-beerchug
