I don't use this software for the moment. But I had something similar this afternoon with one of my Ai planes sunk deep in the middle of the parking of an italian airport! Meanwhile my own aircraft was behaving perfectly. I can't understand what happened.

The problem is coming from the Service 3 provider (Yahoo Maps)Open Yahoo Maps and scroll to the same areas and zoom all the way in...you will find water...Tileproxy is loading those water tiles from Yahoo Maps into FSX.No fix for this...Yahoo has to clean it up

I'm Dyslexic, what's an error to you is not to me

This is what I thought so I changed to MS Virtual Earth maps and alas its the same problem, weird!Thanks anyway.

Had a similiar problem when I installed Tileproxy in FS2002. The tiles immediately below my plane were water tiles; they were surrounded by a black ring, and scenery beyond that. The water tiles and ring of black tiles moved with the plane as I flew along.The other error I got was in the TileProxy window, it said:

WARNING: bytes_to_resolution() failed to determine a resolution for byte count 39666proxyUser: process_nipread() determined tile resolution = 0

Try using 'clean up world folder' in the start menu, tileproxy will rebuild the files again from your cache. If the tiles are wrong in your cache use 'manage cache services' and delete that area.<br /><br />I could be wrong but I think that if you change services in the ini file and refly the same place it won't download them from your new service, it will just use the ones it had already. You need to clean up world folder so it removes them from the TileProxy Photoreal World folder too.
