white on white turns red

Took my bmp to my paint program and painted white over the red spots. redid all.... I made things worse! redid everything again but this time I avoided anything that loo...

Re: download date - satellites images
I don't think so. That would be nice- wouldn't it? i would guess you are looking for fall, and winter views, or even a better summer shot. Best thing is to make sure you have at least two sat dlls running. example- choose in edit- properties... VE but have the ability to choose Google as well. This ...

Re: add map from disk problem
Will do! all I have done was calibrate and left it at that. So- It may be that I should somehow go back to calibrate and manually change the lat and lon numbers. I'll work on that. Read how to do that somewhere....interesting post, but that was some time ago. I guess it would be a question as to whe...

Re: add map from disk problem
OK- I did that and TMF Viewer shows my bmp just fine. I compiled after dong a blend but it was only 28 kb big, and does not show. i feel I am close but not right on with this. Purpose of all this is to be able to successfully add map from disk if I can't find a good satellite image. Just trying to c...

Re: Problem when adding map
I could not understand why you wanted to delete your map in the first place. I will 'show background', add map from background, select all maps (probably don't have to do this but I do), draw my red square and choose te highest res. (makes a pretty big file but it is ver clear image) then I just min...

Re: The image has a wrong file format
Is this with SbuilderX or Sbuilder? i.e. for fs9 or fsx? What is it you are trying to do? Are you trying to do a photoreal? Bob

Re: add map from disk problem
I think I just got Google.dll to work. will check further but the tiles appeared nicely. Still working on why add map from disk won't show.

Re: photoreal scenery night and day problem
Luis, Roger- I noticed Roger saved his night bmp as a tif. Shouldn't that remain a bmp such as.... filename_LM.bmp. Then I think he is supposed to right click the map and choose the LM browsefor the LM filename, then compile?
This way he would have 3 sources. 1.bmp, 2. the _LM, 3. the tif.

Re: add map from disk problem
Luis- thank you for the reply. why I was consideriing LOd changes is because I loaded this photoreal into my active scenery and nothing changed. I still see default. Usually this means the LOD is lower than the default, or scenery is ot activated. This scenery is so I figured the problem is the LOD....

add map from disk problem
If anyone reads all of this you will find I found the problem- change the name to photo. But my problem now is LOD. SbuilderX uses auto. I found out that to change the LOD do it manually. But then no one tells me HOW or WHAT to change it to. do I use auto,max - which didn't work- do I type in numbe...

Why is it sometimes when I go to my scenery after placing a photoreal bgl there... I see an entire square instead of just the map. I did a nice blend and covered the rest of the bmp with black and feathered or smudged nicely between black, grey, and white. ----------------- Oops! I just looked at th...
