If I only fly a Piper Cub really slow, under 5000ft, is there a way to configure the ProxyUser.ini to have TP only ask for just those low alt tiles? or just those rings of LOD?I never want to fly high or fast, but I would like to get the best visuals under 5000ft at a slow pace ... I would like Tileproxy to utilize my internet connection by only requesting those tiles. I will never need the tiles used for over 6000ft, or maybe it doesn't work that way?max_lod=15preload_min_lod=9 - "Lowest LOD ring to automatically preload tiles for. Must not be lower than 8." ... is that the high level flight tiles or the low level flight tiles?preload_max_lod=15 - "Lowest LOD ring to au…

Hi, i tried using this tool from the menu, but when I tried to zoom in on an area, I just got a blue blank screen in the window. whats the trick to using it?cheerts, mark

I just installed TileProxy. It seems to be working OK, however I keep getting a beeping sound each time TileProxy reports this message:TikeProxy.sys: Precreate: unsolicited access to '?' by ''!Therefore I can not use TileProxy, as the beeping is so annoying. Turned off my powered speakers, and sound continues. So I think it might be from internal PC speaker or perhaps my DSL modem. Not sure.Any ideas how to solve this problem?Thanks,jim

Hi Guys, been getting this error a lot in the asci screen prior to flight since I changed my .cfg file . Any ideas ? it does not seem to be area specific.Is an HTTP response code 400 good or bad as well ? i google dit and seemed to be indicating bad request syntax or request denied? cheers, Mark

Hi all,Last week I upgraded from a E8500 to a Q9550.From that moment on Windows hangs immidately when loading the desktop.Booting in normal/safe mode gives no issues.However I am using Vista Ultimate 64 bit and need the Unsigned drivers mode to use TP.All suggestions are welcome. Who can help me get TP running again ?

Hi , I finally got it installed and it works !!!! I need to do some tweaking however. Regarding the FSX .cfg file, what values are essential in there for smoothrunning of the software? Does TileProxy write its own required values to the .cfg file everytime it starts? For instance, if I swap in another .cfg file to fly different scenery, next time I fly using tileproxy, do I have to do anything ?Does the LOD Radius setting in FSX .cfg file do anything, or does the settings in the proxy user .ini file override this value? Is there any easy way to tell what is limiting performance once you have it up and running ? IE downloads speeds or Processing power ? I noticed in anot…

Another quick question please! Is there any advantage to cleaning out your cache folders ? I have at the moment, plenty of disk space. Does keeping areas you fly regularly in the cache gain performance when you re fly that area?cheers, Mark

My tileproxy starts but when it's time to download textures I have a sequence of messages like these:ettile: Transfer #0 problem - giving up!nettile: Transfer #29 resulted in redirect, retrying (1)...nettile: Transfer #40 resulted in redirect, retrying (1)...nettile: Transfer #42 resulted in redirect, retrying (1)...nettile: Transfer #26 resulted in redirect, retrying (3)...nettile: Transfer #28 resulted in redirect, retrying (2)...nettile: Transfer #43 resulted in redirect, retrying (1)...nettile: Error was 47 (Number of redirects hit maximum amount) for transfer #24(http://us.maps3.figurethisoutyourself/aerial.maps.figurethisoutyourself/img?x=78&y=78&z=9&v=1…

I've installed TileProxy and it should work fine...It actually worked last night for the first time and was an incredible experience but...99% of the time, one of these things happens...1. The screen goes black and I can hear the engines but can't do anything except quit the flight 2. The flight loads, then FSX freezes and I have to restart3. The flight loads and the tiles are very low res (maybe 20m/pixel). I checked in flashearth and the server provides hi-res tiles.4. FSX quits with a graphic card display error (no it's not my card or my drivers, they're working fine)5. Everything seems to be working but the system freezes with FSX at the Splash ScreenI'm using the sto…

I hope there is a simple answer to this simple question.How can I just cache the scenery I fly over so I don't have to start up tile proxy every time I fly.Also by doing this will it solve my problem of the textures degrading as I fly?Thank You

Hi I installed Tileproxy today because I've seen some videos with this progarmm from "curimedia" in youtube. I think I did everythin correct but if I start Tileproxy there are some errors. I don't know whats wrong, but I hope you can help me ;)The errors: http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=-2009-oct-7-0107478.jpgMy .ini: http://www.file-upload.net/download-193233...xyUser.ini.htmlPlease help me!EDIT: I didn't change anything in the FSX.cfgEDIT2: I've got Vista Sp2!

Hello,First thank for this soft !I have just a little question about TileProxy. I have configured my ProxyUser.ini without any problem.The tiles are downloaded and converted in Fsx also without any problem.I have just this problem (please see the snap below, I have circled the area in red)I have tried with differents servers but the problem is still the same. It's sure that I have a problem with FSX config or something like that...Someone have an idea to help me ?Thanks again (and sorry for the English, I'm french... :))(See my ProxyUser.ini below)

Can anyone tell me if Tileproxy automaticly downloads the new textures on a map version change, or if it still uses the old from the cache? Do I have to empty the cache to get the new maps?

hi everybody(sorry for my english, i'm french...)I research the better setings for TileProxy. I look all around the forum and read the guide but some things are still really dark for me ... Can you copy me an exemple (ini file and cfg file) who can work better with my computer setings ?Computer :Intel i975GTX 295 X 2Corsair DD3 8GoThanks all.

I downloaded tile proxy (at least what I thought was tile proxy) 337 mb. When I was ready to install I read the read-me and it stated that what I had was a small update to tile proxy. I thought it was the full program. Anyway, not knowing what I had I deleted it. What is the problem here? Is it or isn't it? If not, where do I get the full program?Thanks Don

Well after messing about with this parameter and that parameter, and being amazed at the detail then dismayed cause I couldn't get a decent flight without it all blurring, it's finally all come together with 200 knots without blurring and long flights over pre-cached areas. Amazing.The only trouble is is that I cant put my finger on anything that I can say that did it. Hmmm and worse still I seem to have parameters now that would not work no matter what I did.An example. No matter how I ran it it wapped the kernel memory at 90+%. Always. So eventually I twigged onto the max_contexts parameter after browsing the manual once again and dropped it to 256. This immediately dro…

Hi Guys, my name is William and I am new to tileproxy. Can you tell what Christian means when he says the World_lod8 folder should be below the world folders. Does he mean below them in the list at number 100 or whatever or below them at a lower number ie: number 1 in the scenery library. Sorry I'm so thickThanksWilliam

Should it not be the other way round?RegardsWilliam

After many trys and many times giving up, I FINALLY got TP to work. :( I had tried everything suggested on this forum including having it install to default locations but FSX would never load the tiles even though they were successfully being loaded from the internet into the cache files.Thanks to a herbiegoes suggestion in one of the threads, I disabled the preloading of tiles and that did the trick. I now have photo scenery showing in FSX and it looks great.Now that I actually have it working I will now work on tweaking the settings to improve it.It would be nice if some of the things to try when you can't get it to work could be included within the Quick Guide to ma…

I see that the TileProxy manual as well as Truthan's guide states that it's best to run TP with UAC switched off. What's the problem if you don't switch it off? I'd rather keep it switched on for everyday use. I searched this forum for "UAC", but didn't get any hits.

First I want to say, thanks for this awesome program this makes FS so much more addictive.I now have TP running and getting a very good 500 to 800 tiles per sec in flight with FPS locked at 25. The one thing that I don't understand is that of my 10 circles, the first one never ever fills or even starts to fill. Everything still seems to be running fine and keeping up for the most part but thought if I had an idea of why that first circle is not filling I might actually get better results.Is that circle supposed to fill? I have even paused the sim and left for over an hour and still nothing...Any clues?

I've installed TileProxy for both FSX/FS9.When I start it boots up normally, shows the message "TileProxy is ready for takeoff" BUT WONT PAUSE to let me start FS9.Instead goes on.....proxyUser: Connected to Flight Simulator X!proxyUser: FSX process name assumed \Device\HarddiskVolume6\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\fsx.exe......and then starts loading tiles...In FS9 around the plane every tile is blackAny advice please!

Hello people. Im SA577 BirdDog (serious Airlines) From FTL. and iw onder how i can find out when Virtual Earth (Bingmaps) gets updated other than reading about it here on the forums.In other words how does the update topic person finds out?!Thanks.. BD

How come only service example 1 has level mapping numbers like 7,8,8,9, etc...?can i add those settings to service 3, or service 4??

I have just started using Tile Proxy and really enjoy it. However, I am having a problem. I can't get Service 4 to work. The DOS screens scrolls very fast with Service 4 and as best I can read it basically say cannot connect. I don't have any problems with Service 1 and 3. I am using Ed Truthan's ini file. Can someone tell me what the "module_config" should be.Below is my current Service 4 ini:[service Example 4]cache_folder=C:\cache.service4network_module=libnettilemodule_config="conn=20|rate=2.0|verbose=0|server=http://mapcache*.ask.com|path=/sat/%Z/%X/%Y?partner=|balance=1234|useragent=Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; …
