Hi all,
First sorry for my poor english.
I have trouble with satellite or hybrid DL with gmdl 0.4.18a.
In fact, sometime i can DL part of a map sometime not :eek:
gmdl says me to upgrade my connection (not always). It seems like google map limit these download.
No problems with classic road view.
have an idea ?
thanks a lot ;)

I think that google have a quota on how many hybrid map tiles it can give out per session..
So for large maps you probably want to redownload it the next day - gmdl has some recover options to be able to check for missing tiles...

i use MS virtual earth for getting my hybrid maps, and have had no issues with map size limitations/not downloading tiles etc.

perhaps try getting the maps you like under VE? or try deniska's approach for getting hybrid maps under google maps.

woaow un reply from deniska jimself :o
ok, thanks all i'm gonna try both of yours solutions.
VE isn't as acurate as gmap but it's better than nothing ;)

Does anyone have any idea what was meant by the recover function mentioned?

Im curious as Im having alot of trouble getting a solid sattelite view map which does NOT have missing tiles here and there.

Cheers,
