skip to comment formWell I hope in WW 1.4 the problem of loading every tile except the central one has been fixed (that's been broke from the start thru all the versions), and I also hope the servers not responding and downloading tiles will be fixed. I like WorldWind but it often stalls and just halts in the middle of something, leaving a patchwork of low-res and hi-res tiles.
