FSX-A and SBuilder-X

Hello:

Still trying to photo scenery real Machu Picchu area.

Error: Could not start the acquisition of the image...

Hide/Show No joy

 

34x42 at zoom=19

processing Tile 1428 out of 1428

"8 files are being downloaded at this moment.

Please repeat bla bla" (When do I know files have been downloaded?)

 

 

Well I waited some time then clicked OK and the SBuilder did its thing and I got a blank page with little cameras all over it.

 

Posted on FSDeveloper..No answer yet.

Are you using Google Maps?

 

Make sure you have the latest GoogleServer.dll- http://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/threads/new-googleserver-dll.19913/page-2#post-724549

 

43x42 @ zoom 19 might be too big, try smaller chunks or a lower zoom.

 

When do I know files have been downloaded?

 

When the counter in the bottom left hand corner of the Map Window counts down.

 

peace,

Are you using Google Maps?

I don't understand link

Google Earth

7.1.2.2041

Build Date

10/7/2013

Im using whatever map SBuilder-X uses.

I don't know how to configure SBuilder-X to use a different map app.:confused::confused:

I have successfully used SBuilder-X updating a airport in Utah with the same settings.

 

This is not the 1st time Ive attempted to photo real Machu Picchu area, some time ago I spent several hours trying.:(

 

Thanks for taking time to reply

Sorry, it should have been Google Satellite...

Google changes things from time to time so you need to have the latest .DLL.

 

Download it and replace the current version in ...\SBuilderX314\Tiles

 

I can use Google Sat without any problems, if you are using another source, try changing.

I gave you the link for the .dll in post #3, click on it and you should see...

The file properties details do not change, except for the "modified date".

Hello. I know this is a really late reply but I am very frustrated at how it always says "Could not start the acquisition of the image..." It shows when I click the OK button at the draw the red square over the map part. I selected LOD 15. Please help, as I spent hours and hours of searching Google with no help. BTW, I am new at scenery design, just started yesterday, so sorry if this is a no-brainer question.
