[RELEASE] XBMC Earth - Google Earth and Geocoder / Geolocation Script

that looks like you need to change BASE_RESOURCE_PATH to os.getcwd()

Ok thanks Nuka... I had a look into the default.py and changed:

BASE_RESOURCE_PATH = os.path.join( os.getcwd().replace( ";", "" ), "resources" )
to:
BASE_RESOURCE_PATH = os.path.join( os.getcwd(), "resources" )

but I still get the same: TypeError: XML File for Window is missing

I also tried: BASE_RESOURCE_PATH = os.getcwd()
but his led to a different error:
Import language
ImportError: No module named language

Any ideas? Apologies if I'm missing something really obvious, I haven't played with Python scripts before.

no.

change

to

That does get the script to load, but something else in the script is broken. I suspect something changed with the Google resources, as the script loads and shows two options on the left side, both are "Invalid Id 100" and "101".

hmm, yep likewise with the "Invalid Id 100" and "101" for me.

seems you can still actually search on a location and have it retrieve data, but it doesn't seem to display any meaningful images, so yeh... pretty much useless. oh well, thanks for trying guys

Hi all,

Thanks for testing my script.
Because Google has changed some URl-Parameters there was now map displayed in the last Version.
I have fixed that now.
I have although added some Basic Panoramio-Support.

Download the fixed Version from the first post...
I have done some testings with the Windows Version and the Xbox Version

Hi,
is there a Linux version of Google Earth?
thanks
Matteo

This is an awesome script. Just not a big fan of the skin, so I've made an MC360 version.

I've been unable to change the positioning of the actual map/satellite images nor will they show over any other control. If there's ever a new version of this script map position would be a really useful thing to be able to change.
