Thanks to wildon pointing this out, Yahoo seems to be trialing non flash maps through in.maps.yahoo.com (apparently with better coverage of India than google) which points to a tileset that covers the rest of the world as well, so yahoo maps and a hybrid overlay are now in, if you want to redownlaod http://www.in7ane.com/psp/gmdl0.4.15b.zip

(note: yahoo tiles are 258x258 instead of 256x256 so you may see some rough edges due to scaling).

bob318, that is probably due to the way the tile system works (you can only jump by a whole tile, not smoothly), if it's not, and there are some tiles stuck in the web page cache - click Refresh (top right) and try again.

To in7ane

Скажи пожалуйста я убираю не нужные уровни приближения в картах но в итоге получается карта с ползунком слева как и было..т.е. есть всего 3 уровня приближения а ползунок показывает все 7 и когда его передвигаешь то там где нет карты просто ничего нет...нельзя никак это уладить ? может что где выключить надо?

Да и еще когда я делаю свою карту через MSR MapCruncher 3.0.2 - на выходе получается не точно разница метров 40-50...Возможно ли будет в будущем калибровать карту в онлайн?
или как-то декодировать, или только придется опять через их прогу обратно - потом заново создавать...
пасиб...

Hi in7ane,

Need some helps here.

I got this message while running the latest GMDL -> "No internet connection (trying http://maps.google.com), try again...". But I could see the google map in the background. I have DSL connection to my service provider. In fact, I access the internet through LAN connection. Till now, I could not get your program to work. Is there any way that you could do about it?

Thanks.

Hi in7ane,

I think I know the reason of why your program could only work on certain people computer system.

When I connect my notebook to my home broadband internet through wlan/lan, I couldn't get gmdl to work. But if I connect my same notebook to Vodafone Mobile Connect Modem using 3G network, I can get it to work because Vodafone Mobile Connect Modem needs to do a dialup from my notebook whereas wlan/lan needs not require my notebook to do any dialup.

Could you modify your program to skip that part on the checking of the internet connection?

Thanks.
