Faudra-t-il éditer le ficher "openflightmaps.dgml" à chaque mise à jour des AIRACS ?
Le zoom est assez limité.

I just took a look at the pe NotePad ++ Path dgml file: (".. \ Little Navmap \ data \ maps \ earth \ openflightmaps \ openflightmaps.dgml") and changed two "path = 2203" and changed them to "path = 2210" . Then I went to Settings from LittleNavMap and removed the cache from openflightmaps and .... Everything is fine. IT WORKS.

Hello,
I made fresh install of LNM and OFM theme copied to right directory.
I still gets black background of OFM theme.
Other themes are OK.

Have the same problem, when zooming in the map goes black - even though I updated the AIRAC cycles in the dgml-file. It almost seems the OFM data for the tiles are now changed or corrupted. It still worked fine with the last AIRAC cycles.

Doesn´t work. Can anyone help me?
- i have changed the cicle in the dgml file to 2209. (Current cicle according to Navigraph is 2209 rev.1) query="path=2209/aero/latest" and query="path=2209/base/latest"- I have deleted the cache- have hidden the airspaceseThe map is still black.

OFM is still in 2208 - always try a test-tile like https://nwy-tiles-api.prod.newaydata.com/tiles/9/272/182.jpg?path=2209/base/latest vs https://nwy-tiles-api.prod.newaydata.com/tiles/9/272/182.jpg?path=2208/base/latest and verify, if you got an valid tile/jpg.

Are You sure that You're are on the covered area? Also did You changed 2209 in both places in file?

I just had a look at the dgml file with an editor p. e. NotePad++ Path: ("..\Little Navmap\data\maps\earth\openflightmaps\openflightmaps.dgml") and changed the two "path=2203" and changed those to "path=2205". Then went to the Settings from LittleNavMap and deleted the cache from openflightmaps and.... it still does not work: the background remains black ! Any chance it will be fixed with SU 10?

Just noticed, that OFM is already in version 2207 now (example URL from OFM-Website:
https://nwy-tiles-api.prod.newaydata.com/tiles/9/272/182.jpg?path=2207/base/latestso changing the dgml to 2207 works for me now, give it a try!
