Anybody want the stack trace? email me. No cigar. I've got Google Earth 4.2 and the .NET 3.0 Framework with the very latest updates. When you say the current .NET exactly what version and update are you running against? On what OS platform? I'm on XP SP2 at the very latest public release updates. Anybody else got this to run? Darryl BTW a quick check with the debugger showed this apparently uses .NET 2.0, so you don't need to waste time downloading the NET 3.0 bloatware. I've emailed Tobi the debug information. Darryl I did a Google search for V2.0.50727 and went to the Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package (x86) page. I downloaded the 2.0 version and installed it and the program then ran even though my system was showing up to date on system checks. Usually the .NET packages are shown as optional packages, so the automated checking won't load them. Mine works fine on a Lenovo (post ThinkPad type of laptop). Don't understand the comments about jerkiness in the thermals, it's about as smooth as you can reasonably expect. I use 4 second gps updates, longer times probably look a lot worse. The only funny item I've seen is the two demo files that came with the software won't run, they error out immediately. Anybody else see that? Other than that, great job, it's a lot of fun. Dave |

Dave there is a new Build on the download page. It should solve any trouble with unreadable igc-files (It's hard for me to test, since local culture settings caused the problems, thanks to Mark for assistance) |

That is fun.

Worked fine yesterday. But this morning, the perspective view from GE is many thousands of feet too high. Both the GE eye altitude, and the height in meters in the lower left are correct, but the view is wrong. Using XP, SP2, .NET 1.1, 2.0, and 3.0 loaded. Rebooting didn't fix. Weird. Dave |

Dave, most probably terrain is switched of (Google Layers Tab) or altitude exaggeration under tools-options-3D is not set to 1. Tobias |

I got it working today. Really amazing !!
However I am seeing something very annoying. The terrain view keeps pulsating on me ("closer-further" for lack of better description). Does anyone see that as well? Can it be fixed? Cheers, Henryk Birecki |

It was a flight where my 302A was having intermittent glitches due to a faulty antenna connection. Probably not your problem though, but I wonder if the recording interval of the GPS could cause a problem? Mike |

Even in 4.2 , if you are very close to the terrain, lets say less than 40 fts, the Google Earth Camera sometimes makes avoidance movements which cannot be eliminated. However as a totally convinced user of GPS_LOG all my logs work fine. Tobias |

Thanks Tobi,
That fixed it. I missed the required GE version. Now it is really great. Thanks for all your efforts. Henryk tobi wrote: On 2 Dez., 05:44, Henryk Birecki wrote: I got it working today.
