great source, but you need to know a city in the area of the map you are making, and you cannot zoom in and out. mapquest.com is also good

1)  If you know what country you want chances are your gonna know a city and if you don't it doesn't really matter.

2)  What do you mean you can't zoom in and out!!!

It's got the 4.0 X in, 2.0 X in and 1.4 X in and 4.0 X out, 2.0 X out and 1.4 X out

I should have use New Zealand as an example because right at this moment I believe I don't know any cities there.......oh well.

example.........here's Hawaii Kai

ah... I only glanced at it for a short time, and was skimming for something that looked interesting for a map to create... Didnt actually look close

Thanks , been busy offline. I bought a new house out in the burbs and it really needs alot of work. So i gutted the house down to the studs and been rebuilding it since June. It's looking pretty nice sofar, had the 7 person jaccuzi hooked up the 2nd day:)  I'm the only one that goes in it in the winter, LOL. Gonna close up the Jaccuzi room this summer so next winter we can use it year round.

Really nice piece of property, little under an acre, but thats alot of room since i'm used to a philly rowhome.

Freakin' midget owned the house so he dropped the ceilings to 6 foot and i AM 6 foot, LOL

Now i have 12 foot ceilings:) Lotta work, and alot more to go, but i am really happy here, Wifey loves it also.

Now back to some mapmaking, we got to start from scratch with AH2, but that won't be to hard for us, will it?

good to hear from ya Bro...

You to Nuttz.........Been buzy also.....time sure flies by.

I wonder when we'll get a chance to get a version of the TE.

I'm looking at getting another system.  Can't really play AH2 on what I have right now :(


So this is another new house?  

Thought you had sold your house 2 summers ago and had placed a bid on another house...............or is my sense of time out of wack or maybe my brain.  :D

How far do you need to tavel to get to work now!


P.S.  I know its a sore spot but..............what the F*** about those friggin Phil. Eagles............then again my Pitts. Steelers didn't even make the playoffs hehe.

Hope you found a good spot for your large TV.
