Install Google Earth Proxy
Sounds cool never heard of this but am going to try it out now thanks!Important Update : At one time TP supported 4 Map Services. Map service 2 (Google Maps) is no longer supported by TP Beta 8, this tutorial, or TP author Christian Buchner and has thus been removed from the ProxyUser.ini file some time ago.
In addition, Map Service #4 (Ask Maps) now appears to be utilizing Map Service #1 (MSN Virtual Earth) as their satellite texture provider, thus effectively making it a moot choice, or the same as choosing Service 1. This effectively now reduces the possible maps services TP can use to TWO, i.e.
Map Services 1 (MSN Virtual Earth) and Service 3 (Yahoo Maps). Google earth work with tileproxy - here is what you need to add to your proxyuser.inf filesource=Google MapsGoogle Mapscachefolder=YOUR CACHE FOLDER PATHservers filesnetworkmodule=libnettile(compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; GTB6.3;.NET CLR 1.1.4322;.NET CLR 2.0.50727;.NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152;.NET CLR 3.5.30729)'captchamodule=captchaformminlevel=10maxlevel=17mapversion=158levelmapping=10,10,12,13,14,15,16,17colorhack=Nocolorlevel=0bulkextend=20bon voyage! Here are the relevant lines of the.ini file. Do not forget changing the cachefolder according your system.# The currently active service is configured here.

When i load fsx with tile proxy all i see is black ground???-## 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.

Thank you.#TileProxy# Enable or disable worldwide photographic scenery coverage (Yes/True/On to enable)masterenable=On# Write a logfile to disk.

By enabling diskless mode, Tileproxy# will not store a single tile on your hard drive.

The 30cm resolution may only be feasible# if you have at least 2GB of system memory.maxlod=15# The following two settings allow you to tune Tileproxy to not preload specific LOD levels. This can# be used in conjunction with third party scenery products like 'FS Altitude' that provides data only# up to a specific resolution. If you place this scenery higher than Tileproxy's world folders in the# scenery library then it will have precedence over Tileproxy for the specific LOD levels that it# contains. You can then instruct Tileproxy to not preload these low resolution LOD circles because# they are not needed anyway.# Lowest LOD ring to automatically preload tiles for.

A context# is essentially a very fast buffer for graphics data sitting in kernel memory that delivers# data right into FSX. Each tile context can hold an entire LOD 8.15 tile. Higher values# mean more use of your precious kernel memory though. The maximum number is 512.

Large values are now possible,# useful values are up to 2000 meters.
Very high values may be detrimental to water# mask resolution. Loading speed however remains mostly unaffected by this setting.blenddistance=500.0# The rate at which terrain is blended into the water color. 1.0 means a linear# blending, values 1.0 blend faster.

I went as far as starting tileproxy and got the DOS windows telling me it's ready fo takeoff but when I launch FSX SE, I don't get the DOS windows with the tiles and nothing happens in FSX SE.What do I do wrong?Any help is welcome!Thanks a lot!Francois.

My problem is that I can install and start Tileproxy just fine; I get the 'eggs' and all, the scenery is being downloaded to my hard drive, the DOS window tells me the simulation is running, but the flight loading time is too short (maybe 10 seconds) and the scenery is not visible in FSX. Tileproxy shows up in the 'Addons' drop-down above though.Does someone know how to fix this?
I had so much fun with TP 6 years ago. Thanks in advance.
