What tut link would I use to upgrade fs9 aircraft textures to FSX? By gdr in forum Painter's Workshop. Replies: 11 Last Post: , PM. UTX does have one other bonus, which is that it can add more lights at night car brake lights, traffic lights , but over all I don't think you get as much "wow" factor as REX. GEX has more of a wow factor and makes cities look nicer, especially the higher you go, but I'd say REX is the one that I'd get without thinking about it.

You spend a lot of time up in the air and it's cool to see really pretty clouds and to be able to choose how the sky and water look. They work well with the 3D auto-generated buildings of FSX photoreal generally turns off all the buildings.

But if you like photoreal, well that would replace GEX so there would be no point in getting both if you plan to just fly one or the other all the time.

Anyway, hopefully that helps. Chances are you're happy just running with TileProxy, in which case more power to you. You need to be a member in order to leave a comment. Sign up for a new account in our community.

A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damage d, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. So it looks like the issue is windows not allowing the driver to be installed.

Thanks for anyone who can help. Becuse I read that the dseo13b program should work with 64 bit. Where do I go from here? Please help. The 64 bit is NOT the issue I run Tileproxy on Vista 64bit without any problems. When you run the DSEO. Regards Steve.

Posted May 25, Thanks for your input. I am tyring to do everyting you guys suggest. I do have Tile Proxy downloading pictures into the cache now. Any other ideas. About ready to give this thing up. Getting frustrated now. Is the guy that designed this still involved in any way?

Changing the map service TP loads only takes a moment to do and involves switching just one of the " " entries in the ProxyUser. Also: www. If you're not sure which service to choose, just use the links above to zoom into and browse around your preferred area to fly make sure to activate their online aerial or satellite textures tab , and see which service provides the best coverage for your tastes.

I have found that for flights in the continental USA TileProxy's "Service 3" Yahoo Maps provides the most realistic color and consistency over most states. It is essential that you have a reasonably high speed internet connection to run TileProxy. Attempting to use TP with anything near a 56k dial-up connection speed is mostly a "no go" proposition. During install TP backs up your original.

You can always fly without TP engaged and still enjoy the FSX and FS9 default scenery as usual, but if you experience slightly different performance due to the minor changes the TP installer makes, you'll have the backups on hand. For more information on back up file locations, and a list of the. That said, though tileProxy seems to function well with Vista, some users have reported a few kooky problems, and a few just could not get it to work, period.

Some of these problems may originate in certain versions of Vista 64 requiring "signed drivers" which TP currently does not boast. Searching the TileProxy Forum for answers to your specific symptoms if you have problems is probably the easiest way to get specific answers. SP3 is OK too. NET Framework 2. Step 1. Open the downloaded zip file and start the installation by double clicking the "TileproxyInstaller. You should accept the installer's default location in the FSX root folder for the main 'TileProxy" program folder.

If you do not have FSX installed then direct the installer to place the installation in your FS9 root folder. At the "Install Options Page" the installer will then ask you to confirm where you wish to install two other folders. This is recommended , but not manditory.

If you prefer to use an external drive or another location other than the default location specified above See This Page For Instructions. Continue on with the install.

Higher resolutions are experimental at this time see Tip 4 of " Tips and Troubleshooting " below and can bog down even very robust machines. You can change all of these settings anyway at a later time in the ProxyUser. When finished you will find a new group of TileProxy shortcuts in your Start Menu. Familiarize yourself with them.

More information on these may be found in the TileProxy Manual. Step 2. Why do you need this file? The ProxyUser. The link above contains two completely "ready to go". We update this file every so often due to map service updates, the last notation of which may be found to the right of the download link above.

Important: If you decided you'd like your Cache folders on another drive instead of their default location you'll need to edit a few entries in the ProxyUser.

Now, simply place one of the ProxyUser. Backup the original if you wish. I've included both versions because they differ slightly the way they're configured. You'll need to switch them out of the TP root folder if you decide to switch FS versions, so keep copies of each on hand. Be sure then to configure your ProxyUser. Before you fly, you'll want to check to make sure the geographic area you intend to fly is well represented with reasonably sharp texture resolution and natural looking aerial or satellite color.

My INI files are currently pre-configured to use Yahoo Maps as the texture server Yahoo Maps has very good resolution and color consistent coverage of most of the continental USA and many other locations abroad , so if you've verified your area has good coverage at Yahoo Maps you can skip this step and go right to Step 5 and get to flying!

If your not sure, take a moment and do a brief online reconnaissance to find which map service best covers the area you wish to fly. You can then make the appropriate edit to the ProxyUser.
