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?

Runs great with XP. I have all the latest updates.

I wish it had Engilsh help and imperial units though.

Hey now that's pretty cool!

I see it's in early beta release (version 0.2). I hope future releases
will smooth the heading (it jumps while turning/thermaling), and maybe
add a PDA imitation in the left panel showing the overhead macro view.

And maybe some bored programmer out there can do a version that
integrates with SeeYou, to do synchronized playback. That would look
pretty cool on my two-headed lean mean XP machine!

Works on my machine at work with XP, but I get the .net error at home
even after running an update check at Microsoft.

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.

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.

bank angle is not possible with the active GE Version, may be later.
But I will work on higher speed, better control and enhanced
analytics.

It's a wonderful tool. I love it. Tobi you deserve a huge round of
applause for this.

However, I have noticed that while my Volkslogger files work fine, some IGC
files from OLC won't play. This may be what is causing problems for others.
There's an error message in German but I can't cut and paste it into
babelfish.

GREAT tool.
However i would also love to have a much more smoothed track.

Additionally a even faster playback rate (up to 100x?) would be welcome.

Thanks for this great piece of software!
