I've tried it. Looks good, I can't zoom in though.

I'm just stuck floating 12, 000, 000 metres above the land.

Nevermind, just found it. You have you use the mouse wheel.

I zoom in, but the picture doesn't change. I just stays static green

It'll stay green until you turn on some of the other settings on the toolbar (try the USGA 1Mtr for max effect) - BTW only the states is done in this way (shame!!!) I wanted to see my house

But according to the site, the Landsat 7 takes great photos of things, thats what I had it on

Keeps saying can't connect to server, so I thought that was it. It doesn't say when it IS connected though...

That 1 metre thing worked nice though. I can see my parent's development in Florida really clearly. The house is a bit blurred though.

I'm finding it hard to use

OK figured it out and finnaly found Tamworth. Only thing is it can't connect to the server, so I can't look at Tamworth from 25,000 metres

OK then just what system are you all running this software on?Will my Athlon 1.04 Ghz cope?Or is the novelty value likely to evaporate after about 5 minutes?

Incog.

Well when looking at 10,000 metres my mouse keeps skipping along and I have a Duron 1.8GHZ, so I think your Athlon 1GHZ may struggle.

**Maggy** · 10-10-2004, 15:37

Well it doesn't really sound like my cup of tea anyway.I frankly can't think of anyone I want to spy on.

NASA are having problems with there server that sends the world textures, according to the website that is. Hopefully they fix it, I want to see what some places look like

For anyone interested in screenies I took this of LA international airport (LAX)

Found it whilst looking at Southcentral (now south LA) and Compton heh heh

I still haven't managed to get the link working to down load the program, guess the servers must still be busy.

Tezcatlipoca · 10-10-2004, 16:08

I've downloaded it, but can't connect to the server in the program

Oh this so reminds me of the Seti Thread.
