May 15, 20224 yr The Google Tile Tool allows 5 different tile server choices including the latest Bing tile servers. My favorite source is currently the Arc GIS servers as tile blending seems better. Does anyone have another preference? Cheers
May 15, 20224 yr It will depend very much on the area you fly in. For me (in NZ) the Bing/latest/newest is way better than the old Bing - and also better than the other providers. *However* I find that using the tool increases the frequency of the dreaded "bandwidth error" pop-ups, so (sadly) have to revert back to default MSFS (Bing).

I'm intrigued as to what difference autoloading does to this error (and how/why!). I must adnmit that option has always baffled me!! Edited May 15, 20224 yr by Adamski_NZ
May 15, 20224 yr Author The point is to make sure the tool is run before MSFS else the error will appear. You can ignore it BTW. Just make sure to run the tool before a flight. sp
