    Hi,I'm still having dificulties to properlly close the program. Please see my previous post bellow:http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho...=2036&mode=fullI managed to do it sometimes by closing I think it was FLTMC.exe from the task manager, but now it won't close. It's been a month since I last used this and I cannot remember the proceedure I did before that worked, so if possible a mini-tutorial on the proper way to close and restart without having to logoff and login to windows again. Thanks all.Andy

    I never saw this program until today but if I install it, does it change a bunch of stuff which will mess up my FSX installation if I happen to want to uninstall it? I am assuming I can turn it on and off.. yes?Thanks guys

    Hello,I've tried out TP a few months ago and after a long break decided to check out what's new, so I got B6 today. Not sure if I did anything wrong, but this is what FS looks like, and I tried the V*** and the G*** services. They both looked the same, see attachment. Whereas the G one also gave lots of redirects, so maybe that might be the cause...!? V didn't, as far as I have seen. Anti virus is turned off.Anything I mighta missed?Thanks in advance.Etienne

I plugged in the settings and still get blurred/pizelated images (diff from when i used VE, but still no where near as sharp as I see on their online maps.

    I've now got a test system running a quad Q6600 chip at my disposal. I took a very cheap upgrade route by reusing a lot of older components and using a motherboard with AGP and DDR I support ;-)So now I can test with a 64 Bit Windows and fix the installer issues.And I can optimize the preload mechanism for use with a Quad Core (or better) system..I was getting around 800-900 tiles per seconds while starting FSX and all 4 cores pegged at 100%.Christian

  8. Christian,First, I want thank you for the contributions that TileProxy has made to my real-world VFR flying. TileProxy has eliminated a great deal of the anxiety associated with landing at unfamiliar airports by allowing me to pre-fly those arrivals while seeing the actual roads, highway intersections, buildings and landmarks. I also feel safer because I feel familiar when entering the area.Now to my question: Would you consider developing a version of TileProxy that acts as a scenery

    New satellite to sharpen Google EarthFri Sep 14, 2007 2:58pm ET148By Andrea Shalal-EsaWASHINGTON (Reuters) - DigitalGlobe, provider of imagery for Google Inc's interactive mapping program Google Earth, said a new high-resolution satellite will boost the accuracy of its satellite images and flesh out its archive.The new spacecraft, dubbed WorldView I, is to be launched on Tuesday.Together with the company's existing Quickbird satellite, it will offer half-meter resolution and will be able to collect over 600,000 square kilometers of imagery each day, up from the current collection of that amount each week, Chief Executive Jill Smith told Reuters in a telephone interview.

    I've just downloaded TP for a test drive. I'm using the service configs from http://edtruthan.com/tileproxy/ini/. How long is it supposed to take to load FS9 using TileProxy? I've been stuck with the "Loading Terrain" progress bar at 28% for five minutes now.

    Hi everybody,Since several days I am reading everything about TP.Here I have a selfbuilt 747 cockpit with 2 projectors for outside view.I have 2 client pc's with PM.Photorealistic ground scenery is the best to have, so TP is a wonderfull addon.To be able to fly with a jet above photo-scenery I use FsEarth between FSX and Google earth. I start my flights with FSX scnery and when passing 3000 ft I minimize the FSX view and maximize the Google view ( in tilted mode ).In that way i can fly with jet speeds.Very impressive on my 11ft wide screen.Unfortunately no clouds...And I have to switch between the Google view and FSX view when lading/climbing.It would be perfect if ever…

    Just a small practical tip:In the Service Example 2 (the big G... provider) you can use these statements in the INI filemin_level=5max_level=17level_mapping=5,6,7,8,9,10,11,13,13,14,15,16,17to get a larger radius of high quality terrain around your aircraft. I used it successfully in the Swiss Alps. Now the brownish appearance of some mountains has been pushed further out towards the horizon.Here is a slightly more aggressive mapping:level_mapping=5,6,7,8,9,10,13,13,13,14,15,16,17would be a bit foolish though to try this (long loading times and excessive data transfer volume)level_mapping=13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,13,14,15,16,17

But I was WRONG!Look at this:http://geo.topf.org/tileproxy/index.htmlTileproxy! A totally unrelated project.So... should I rename my project now? ;-)Christian

    Recently upgraded from a dual 6600 to a quad Q6600 and dropped the new beta in (with the recommended fsx.cfg file) after uninstalling the previous release.All four cores are now flat stick when I run TP (99% across the board) and I average between 700 and 1000 tiles per second as the flight terrain loads and then about 200 to 300 tiles per second in game (I have a 1.5mb connection) but still, the visuals are quite degraded (with fps unlimited and limited there is no appreciable difference).It is quite strange given the volume of tiles I get - the quality of the terrain textures is far from that which can be seen in the provider's viewing tool. I get some blurries but, ma…
