Open street view maps in V8.005

[cnwfan]

Eric-
Is it possible to go back to the old maps in V7 or a way to do it personally with the settings I appreciate that Tangent is now in 8 as you know I had trouble with it not automatically working with the older versions. The one thing that keeps me going back to V7 is how OSV maps are for the yards as it helps me lay out better, and its not a big black blob of black.

Wasn't aware of an issue with OSM.

Not a issue just wondering if there was a reason why 8 yard tracks shows up as a black mass not lines like 7 or earlier . Not handy if you want to know how many yard tracks there are without going into earth or maps.

There is a clear difference in OSM in 8 vs 7 as see screenshots I asked yesterday is there a way to fall back to TSRE7 map on 8 ?

Can you specify the exact TSRE versions? There is no difference between TSRE5_v0.7.003 and TSRE-ReleaseCandidate-v8.005.

Interesting TSRE-ReleaseCandidate-v8.005 is folder and TSRE5_v0.7.001. Not sure why OSM is being weird on Eric's release for me.

It could be location specific. Give me the world coordinates and I'll take a look later.

There was a change in Mapbox a few years back on zoom leveling, and OSM may have implemented something similar.

I think it is location specific , all my Midwest routes have this on V8. The screenshots were taken around Boone yard 42.0625 -93.8662, Guess short term Ill keep doing what Ive been doing is laying track in V7 and going to V8 for Tangent needs. Just a bit weird why the level is so bad.

Looked to me like the line thickness was thicker,causing yard lines to overlap.
Either additional zoom or a thinner line should fix that issue.

And how does one fix this ? When its a OSM issue. Additional zooming will not fix the problem in V8. As Eric said this maybe a change in zoom leveling per OSM.

Check in your Settings.txt.... what is the value for mapImageResolution?

Try 4096.

Having it too low i.e. 512 or 1024 will do what you're seeing.
