I just Googled it and found out it is some what like FSGoogle earth. It uses satalite images to display scenery as you fly. I have not heard of this program before so I am not sure how well it works or if the images are any better than the ones you get using Google Earth.
The images Google earth uses are somtimes very old from 10 years ago and later some times and none of them are current images. I could never get it to work correctly on my system and the programs that are out now are all payware and it is just not worth it to me.
This more than likely sets up the same way FS Goofle earth does but that is a best guess as I have not tried it. I suggest you do as I did Google the word Tile proxy and it will give you several links and hopefully you can find some info on how it works. 8-)

I found a Loooooooooong intructions, I still don't understand why after taking very long loading the landscape shows in black

It doesn't look like it is set-up correctly. The reason it is hard to set up is because they are not allowed to give you specific instructions on how to set it up due to copyrights.
This will set up TileProxy to use the Yahoo Maps server. If you wish to use something else, [;ace a # in front of source=Yahoo Maps and remove the # from in front of the server you wish to use. A few people have been having problems with Google Earth at the moment, so I would suggest giving Virtual Earth a go if youre not happy with Yahoo Maps.

Anyway, delete everything in the .ini and replace with:

# Read the manual for help with configuration. Do not contact the
# author about the configuration for particular services. Thank you.

Thanks so much Wingo!!

Hey I Live here!  :P

My House  8-)

[fabiane]

Ok, I read the manual, but I didn't get it uninstalled....

Any hints how to do it? All my default texures are gone at the moment...,

Thanks,
Cheers, Fabian

[alrot]

Just restart your pc , there's something that keeps in Prossess I don't know yet what it is ,Once you restart your PC ,Do not execute ""Load filter driver and run proxyuser"" It may run well..


There's gotta be a way to paste Google images directly into the FSX Scenery, Ill try the Kml..

[Wingo]

Thanks so much Wingo!!

Looking good! Glad you got it working. Which server are you using?

[alrot]

Yahoo map Wingo , the one you gave me, the other doesn't work..Although there's got to be a way to record this images(it takes too much time to load and in the day takes more my banwich is slower) ,Ive seen there's some kind of temporaly files , unless there is a "hiden Option in this software to Export the photos somehow


My city Google map


FSX and FSGenesis



Now with Tileproxy
NON a mess ,just exacly like it is




There's got to be something to fix this with FSX-KML

[Wingo]

Hmmmm, if i remember right it is meant to cache the images so next time you fly in an area it doesn't take as long to load. I'll try to find out
