[3DSpotters]

OK, now it works :)
I changed run.bat to:

@SETLOCAL enableextensions
@cd /d "%~dp0"

python.exe -m pip install -r requirements.txt
python.exe src\app.py

==> the problem was with the Python included in the package, my installed before Python 3.9 was OK.

Anyway, I leave this message here, maybe helpful - not everybody can play with BAT files :)

THANKS for such a smart software!

[tarukuu]

Thank you . I changed too.

[3DSpotters]

But in the end: Google does not want to send me pictures:

[derekhe]

make sure you setup proper proxy url
if not use proxy to access google, keep it empty

[3DSpotters]

I am not using any "proxy". I keep the "proxy field" empy, test is OK.
I tried both direct internet access as well as VPN to another country, same [WinError 10060] ...

[derekhe]

Please test the latest version: https://github.com/derekhe/msfs2020-google-map/releases/tag/2.0.3

[derekhe]

yes, it takes long time to enter the game, I don't know why.

[3DSpotters]

No, this long time is not a problem: this is because lots of ADDONS in the Community folder, this is "OK" anyway.
CTD is not OK :)

[derekhe]

what is CTD?

[3DSpotters]

Oh. CRASH. Crash to the Desktop, without any warning.

[3DSpotters]

Now (the second try to start) my MSFS wait in the middle of loading, no sound heard...

[3DSpotters]

Yep, CTD again :(
After first CTD, when I started second time I got RED WARNIG to start in "safe" or in "normal" way. I have chosen "normal". I think "safe" is without ADDONS or without internet?

[3DSpotters]

I will try now to revert to no "Google replacement" and with "hosts" commented.

[3DSpotters]

I reverted to "default" - now I start my MSFS again.

[3DSpotters]

OK, looks like my MSFS in default config (with "Google replacement" switched OFF) will start - now the bar goes right after 50%.
OK, now I am back in the main menu.

To be sure I may do a test with ALL ADDONS OFF in Community folder and only "Google replacement" ON...

[derekhe]

ok, may be something wrong. In my PC it sometimes happen. Will try to find out.
If I wait for sometime it will goes in to the menu and can start the game.

[3DSpotters]

So... I do last test for now - "Google replacement" ON and all ADDONS OFF (my Community folder is empty now) ...

[3DSpotters]

My MSFS started with "Google replacement" ON and ALL ADDONS OFF... now I try to fly...

[derekhe]

it seems working

[3DSpotters]

YES. On plain "default" MSFS now I see textures... to be sure I will delete ROLLING CACH and try to spawn somewhery completly else...

[3DSpotters]

Not sure what is going on. I constantly got information about "too low bandwidth" and MSFS goes into "OFFLINE "mode automatically!

[3DSpotters]

I can turn "connection" ON in the in-flight menu but... I still have default MSFS textures, not textures from Google!

[3DSpotters]

Still: "Failed to establish a new connection: [WinError 10060]" as you see... and I have DATA=>ONLINE FUNCTIONALITY ON...

[3DSpotters]

[3DSpotters]

After a while...is it...GOOGLE???

[3DSpotters]

YES! IT IS Google...looks like the mechanism (or Google itself) needs some time (a few minutes?) to "stabilize" on a given area...then the map tiles are sent from Google!
I never before was in the area and DEBUG window shows the tiles are coming from Google...now without any errors...

Tiles are not coming as fast as from BING itself but they come in the end.
I also have to debug my ADDONS - which one causes CTD in pair with "Google replacement" ...

[3DSpotters]

So the conclusion is - I CAN USE Google but:

• a mechanism is not no way as reliable as default BING,
• you have to be patient and fly both HIGH and SLOW :)
• some ADDONS cause CTD in pair with "Google replacement" (they are not causing CTD in default config)
• We can not give any ticket to Google about THIS overall problem with MSFS :D :D :D

[3DSpotters]

Next test: I turned ON some of ADONS.
In the beginning of the start MSFS gives me a message, that "We can not log you to Xbox Live service.. Press any key to start" (I am on a PC).
When I press a key, the screen is all dark but the music is ON...
I closed the MSFS window and turn OFF and ON "Google replacement" and started MSFS again.
Again the message:
"We can not log you to Xbox Live service. Try in a while (0x80004005)".

So now I switched OFF ALL ADDON SCENERY (and I left all addon aircraft) - looks like MSFS will start, let's hope (no "Xbox Live" service message) ...

HAHAHA - that "Xbox Live" thing was... because current Microsoft Servers outage!
So MSFS started now and I can start my flight. It takes much longer to load tiles from Google but it works in the end.
Looks like that some pre-SU5 sceneries are causing CTD sometimes (they do not without "Google replacement" thing though...).

[derekhe]

From your description I can see that your google connection seems not stable and slow.

[3DSpotters]

I wonder what can I do with that...
OK - next step with my testing: I will try VPN to different countries, I hope my VPN has enough bandwidth...

[3DSpotters]

YES!
So I tried in the morning today AND directed my VPN to... New York, USA.
Starting up process was long but when I started my flight...every texture is Google's and crisp!!!
Looks like both evening and my native location (PL) are not the best for loading Google tiles :)
PS. CMD Debug Window shows now NO (timeout?) ERRORS, every tile loads as it should!

Thank you very much for your consultancy, @derekhe !
