Has anyone been successful downloading map images as terrain patches? I have been successful getting OSD vector images but not map images. Tried both Google and Mapbox APIs,.

I do it all the time. If you're using TSRE 8, your API key is now separate from the URL in the MapAPI token (MapAPI = yourkey)If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating....

These are the three keys that need to be set in the API file for TSRE to pull maps from MapBox:
//// MapBox
//// See https://docs.mapbox.com/api/maps/static-images/ for parameter options
//
imageMapsUrl = https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/mapbox/satellite-v9/static/{lon},{lat},{zoom}/{res}x{res}?access_token=
MapAPIKey = pk.yadayadayadayadayadayada
//// MapBox needs this offset setting to be -1:
imageMapsZoomOffset = -1
For whatever reason, the zoom levels z17/z18 are different between Google and MapBox. That last offset is only needed for Mapbox and makes the adjustment, and isa token just in case this ever changes for MapBox.... Be sure to comment it out for Google Maps.If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating....
