Which servers?

Recommended Posts

Hi all... The already established server: #source=Service Example 3 (Yahoo) works great for me in the USA. However I would like to see TileProxy work in Europe and the UK. The other options do not work there. I get either black screens or distorted tiles. Can someone please tell me what I should type in the list below, to get good results in Europe or the UK? #source=Acme Globe Service (is the fake)#source=Service Example 1 (Virtual Earth)source=Service Example 3#source=Service Example 4 Thank you very much... :(

Just use the VE server for UK and Europe.Use http://www.flashearth.com to see the level deatail, it's pretty good.
Thanks for the reply but I have already tried it on saves and on newly created flights and it always comes up with green tiles everywhere. Any suggestions?Thanks but I have already tried it on saves and on newly created flights and they always come up with green tiles everywhere on the land. The sky seems O.K. Any suggestions? :( I checked my Anti virus programs and disabled one and uninstalled the other; unchecked Windows Firewall. Still nada.

Are you using the ini file from edtruthan.com ?It's service 1Remember that his ini file is set to Yahoo, for VE to work you need to edit it by adding a # to source 3 and removing the hash from source 1#source=Acme Globe Servicesource=Service Example 1#source=Service Example 3#source=Service Example 4like that

Yep... that's the easy part... simply deleting the hash icon on the server you want to use and adding the hash to the previous one. Still can't figure oput why the green tiles everywhere in Europe and the UK. The Yahoo server for USA works a treat.

try using the same map_version that Service 1 provides in the browser (MSN Live Maps) currently. Use Firefox'es Page Information and go to the Media tab to inspect the tile URLs. Somewhere in thereis a map generation/version argument. Use that number also for Tileproxy.It could be that access to older tile versions is broken, that's why you get green tiles.
