Google overlay bug

Unread postby piotrulos » Mon Oct 21, 2013 10:15 am

This is really annoying, when I press CTRL + G it spawn map far far away from camera.

Image(this is zoomed)

So ok, I paused downloading and move closer, but the map is shifted and cutted, so this really suck!

Please fix this bug! Tried all settings and this still happens on this coordinates, but when I open existing map for edit, overlay works ok.

The first screenshot is interesting. Can you just pan around and get the images to render?

The second shot is where two aerial photos did not mesh from Google. Please log a bug with them.

Just so you know, this is not RSC support and we have no affiliation with RSC.
To signal a bug to RSC, you have to write an e-mail to their support team.

AFAIK that misaligned track is a problem within google itself and has nothing to do with RSC. I've seen so many of those track segments that dont line up just browsing through google maps. I think google will have to fix that before RSC can do anything. **!!bang!!**

Yep. Loads of those sorts of shifts all over the place from Google Earth, not the decal overlay.

With a pair of travelers at each windowpane.
I may sit beside you all the journey through,
Or I may sit elsewhere, never knowing you.
But if fate should mark me to sit by your side,
Let's be pleasant travellers; it's so short a ride."

Sorry for the bump, but did you eventually manage to solve your first problem? I'm having the same troubles, with the overlay spawning half a mile away.

Sounds like a reasonable workaround. I'll give it a try, thanks!
