tugais Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Anyone able to Download the OpenFlightmaps ? I tried today to download them and I also experienced a problem. Mapview downloaded the required files from the service but the image files seem to be empty. I'll ask Detox to see if he's able to pinpoint the problem. 3rd Wing | 55th Black Alligators * BA-33 Εις ανηρ ουδεις ανηρ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok then, I had a little chat with Detox and he confirmed to me that OpenFlightMaps textures could only be applied to region that the service actually covers - the Caucasus and the Strait of Hormuz are not mapped by OpenFlightMaps, hence the lack of textures in Tacview for these DCS theaters. 3rd Wing | 55th Black Alligators * BA-33 Εις ανηρ ουδεις ανηρ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
