Map names in foreign language

[Rusty Gunz 2]

What a fantastic add-on for FSX!  Every time I use it, I learn something new about it's functionalities.  I'm just blown away by the intricacies of this program.  That's why I made my contribution.

I do have one question/issue: is there a way to have the city/landscape names, etc. displayed in English rather than the language of the country shown on the map?  I can do fair with French and some Spanish.  My Japanese, Russian, Portuguese (and the rest) language skills are non-existent.

I can live without it, but it sure would be handy to find, say, Tokyo without having to resort the the airport code.

Thanks.

Hi Ken,

thank you for the nice words.

The names cannot be changed for the online maps since these are pre-rendered image tiles from free services.

But the Stamen Terrain map theme shows English names. You can also use one of the offline maps which also show English.

Thanks, again, Alex.  That's exactly what I wanted!  BTW, that sound you hear is my mind being blown once again.

Yeah, I have to agree.  I switched from another program that is payware and Little Navmap is just so much nicer to use, is updated often and looks great!
