Hi everyone i need a bit of help i have allways used rex but this time round im here trying this great product out love it to bits but with be being new at this one im a little lost on the INI. setup i have got a tutoral INI file and i more a less transferd the file across ,and just alterd the c:\ path..ect on 3 or more lines, i start it up at first it trys and conects and starts streaming in the immages ,to my folders i created during installationbut when it loads its blerd ,water is realy rough infact sharp is the word , but i think the comand lines for the http:// server must be wrong and quality , the aircraft itself great i just need someone to have a look at my INI file and maybe tell me were i am going wrong ?my specs are Amd dual core 6000+ 5gb ddr2 800250gb sata for o/s =created folders for it to use250gb sata for fsx =installed tileproxy Geforce GT430 1gb ddr3 dx10 disabled as i had flickering issues,My INi file is here below if someone could tell me were i am going wrong i would be greatfull indeed as at 15000ft i see square patchs were it has not yet loaded because the server eather has stoped responeding ,...## Start a line with # to comment it out.# Turn your text editor's Word Wrapping OFF for editing this document.## Read the manual for help with configuration.

Well, you've changed the ini between the two posts and I can comment on that first.I have a 3GHz dual core and I usually can't make scenery at more than 60-80kts... ultralight or Cub --- there's a lot going on.As you make scenery, some will drop back to lower res' as you fly away; disregard this, it still has the scenery it made and it will show up more consistently when you restart things next time.I'd recommend set and leave preload_max_lod=17. you re-set the max_contexts=512 to a too-high value with that 1012: 512 is the max and that's where I run it.cache_bytes_limit=100000000 you raised to 150M - mine is currently at 800M; you've got plenty of memory to raise this. My tiles limit is the same 200K.I don't know AMD 6000 processor speed but my 3.0GHz runs TP only 'adequately' at very modest speeds.Youtube videos are typically made with higher speed quad-cores and I can't rival that at all.I can't comment on what you are seeing because I have no idea where you are flying and what imagery is available. I can see from your posted shots the transition from the low-res (20m) to the browner 10m scenery but with no way to know what else - if anything - has been made or is being displayed.It would be helpful to set FSX to med range, 1m resolution, TP to lod_max=15, level min/max 10 to 19 (which you can always leave that way as these are the only 10 ranges that TP can make scenery for); Go to KLAX and fly around the airport property slowly until you can see all the airport at this level. Shut down and restart TP and FSX before judging what it can actually do. If it doesn't look good from 2000' then we have something to work toward. Far too many places in the world just have some high resolution in the immediate vicinity of a city with a very abrupt transition to the all-the-world 20m low res' stuff. We need to start with an area where I know what to expect from TP.Coastal regions sometimes end abruptly just offshore... I usually set the blend distance fairly low (250 - 500)if I'm not sure what I'll encounter but checking online first helps decide this.Loyd

hi there thanks for the reply i have been haveing a good play round for a couple of days trying to see what i can come up with , i just like to say thank you to people who have helped me so far as i am very greatfull,i have edit the ini file quite a few times, and then then set the fsx graphics settings ,now the only thing what is anoying is i know for europe it recomends virtual earth but i can not just say or input virtual earth.com so can someone tell me how they get the full source code from the url module_config="conn=20|rate=2.0|verbose=0|server=http://a*.ortho.tiles.virtualearth.net|path=/tiles/a%s.jpeg?g=%v|quad=0123|balance=0123|useragent=Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)"yes its virtual earth but do you just go to virtual earth zoom in on europe and copy the souce code or somethink? this could come in handy to know,but i am also haveing this issue i have took some screenshots here below.now fsx is installed on my 2nd drive E: tileproxy is installed on same drive E but the cach folders and temp tiles folder get stored on my drive C: with there own folders to keep things tidydo disable Uac and disable driver siginator and have enabled my firewall not a problem , this is my upto date currant INI file is here ...# Tileproxy Hi Definition ini for FSX## Start a line with # to comment it out.# Turn your text editor's Word Wrapping OFF for editing this document.## Read the manual for help with configuration.

Dave,

i know for europe it recomends virtual earth but i can not just say or input virtual earth.com so can someone tell me how they get the full source code from the urlmodule_config="conn=20|rate=2.0|verbose=0|server=....

module_config="conn=20|rate=2.0|verbose=1|server=....The function of the "verbose" parameter is explained in the user manual butwhat a waste to have TP printing a million access urls... unless you just want to see what they look like; if that's all you want, look in your browser cache after a session at any map server and you can see the urls you've accessed for images.But YOU don't need to create any URL. Tileproxy identifies the scenery that FSX is going to need (based on location and flight direction), calculates the tiles that will be needed and BUILDS urls as it needs to access the specific images.-------------------

but i am also haveing this issue i have took some screenshots here below.

what issue is this?

copy the souce code or somethink? this could come in handy to know,

Yahoo still has a location address visible in the address bar but it contains lat/long and zoom, not the actual jpg name...Virtual Earth no longer has this feature

secenery settings for the default autogen and textures ect ,cause i was wondering if you can mix and match default with tileproxy

any scenery level you can fly but AUTOGEN placement was designed for use with default textures. It can only be added to photoscenery after it is created. Christian refers to autogen settings in the user manual but I have NEVER seen any since the product was released. I have to assume that TileProxy does not permit autogen.Unsolicited access...There are numerous background processes that access files and folders. Tileproxy alerts you when this happens... unless you can figure out what process is doing it and determine if it is safe to suspend the function until you are finished flying - I usually just do something else for a few minutes, until it is done.Loyd
