This is as good as I could get. Still, pretty cool

This is probably the shittiest way of navigating a map I have ever seen. I have been looking for ten minutes now for New Zealand...
... God dammit. *Gets an atlas* ... Okay, there seems to be some big uncrossable black area around New Zealand, but I got there. Oh, what a surprise, it doesn't zoom for shit here. I assume I live somewhere around here: http://www.oddworldforums.net/attach...achmentid=2825 |
If you want better aerial images, go to www.multimap.com - you can zoom on that no matter where you are, and the pictures are really high quality.
EDIT: I take that back... they only do the UK. I was so sure they'd done an aerial survey of the whole planet. |
|
I'm in one of the teensy houses within the hazy pink ring. I can't tell which one.
|
How did you get those pictures up here? Because I couldn't save them to my computer. But it is great! I saw my house and the stuff around the place: the park in front of my house, the tramway, the car showroom. :D
All from above! But with Multimap, I've managed to make a picture. When I visited the website, it started with Hungary in the middle. How welcoming... EDIT: Finaly, I've managed to get a picture with the other website. Prefabricated house in an industrial-like area. But it's nice. |
Dripik, You live in a quite industral place by the looks of it. Well mine is quite green
http://image.globexplorer.com/gexser...E5NjQ4Mjk4MDMz I'm supposed to live here, but it dosn't look very familiar. |
I cant find my location on either map. Damn online maps!
|
you can also type in your adress on the side and it might bring you there
EDIT: ok, UK map: http://www.multimap.com/ US map: http://viewers.globexplorer.com/prtV...wer/index.html |

This scares me... In a good way :p I typed in 'Wellington' (capital of NZ) and it brought me to open waters. Then again, it does mean boot.
Searching for an hour is enough... :fuzemb: I am stopping now. |
i typed in california as a city, and it came up with UK. anyways, i found my condo, but the pic is too large, resizing now...
EDIT: there. |
:
It looks like it's the same thing, except the search by address thing is different, you can just select country, then put Wellington in the City field. I mean, it came up with Otorohanga, and that's not really much of a city. :p Anyway, I would post where I live, except that I don't really live in a city/town place and I can't zoom in enough in New Zealand. Also, the angle of the camera appears to be slightly out, according to a map of NZ I have. |
Lol, how hard can it be to scout your own city. Damn things look so diffrent from the top!
Anywayz, I found it. The circle marks the house I live in. It looks like I live in the middle of a huge industrial zone, and as a matter of fact I do :P. The huge plant on the right is a milk proccessing center, where milk gets prepared for shipping and stuff. The area on the left is a huge bus garage where they are fixed and stored. |
http://www.oddworldforums.net/attach...tid=2835&stc=1That's me in the red rectangle there.

:
Yeah, the common color is grey around here. :D And, as I said earlier, the tramway goes near, so it's a bit noisy. And buses come around often too. At least I can get to the underground station faster than walking. |
im trying to find a pic of my mom's car :P
|
How do you get UK on :/ ?
|
:
Here is mine. |
Rich the Intern, what are you talking about, you got plenty of greens where you live. :p
|
Shhh!
I live about two miles from the city centre, which is packed. But yeah, if I zoom out further there's even more green! Plus theres a park 200m down the road! |
I tyred looking for Area 51, but no luck.
|
*lol* :D
I coulnd't zoom in very much |
