I wanted to present Google Esenthel Earth (latest tutorial in 2.0 thanks to added GPS functionality)
(no, you can't zoom-in like in google maps, I only demonstrate that GPS is now available )

Very cool, another great feature!

Downloading
Wow very exciting release!
I image it will break most peoples projects but definitely worth it
And thanks for the extra tuts to

Awesome this is very cool. I had an idea for an app that would require GPS in the back of my mind.. guess I can use Esenthel to make it now XD.

Thanks Greg

@gwald didn't break my project much at all... only think I noticed was that AG_STATIC is no longer an actor group defined in the engine

we will use this for enviroment settings based on user location, we were thinking on implementing this for us, thanx greg!

This feature isn't work on my computer. I'm in Hungary. The LocationLatitude() function returns zero (of course LocationTimeUTC().valid() also return false;
Scarlet Thread: You can follow the name changes in it's topic. AG_STATIC was renamed to AG_TERRAIN.

Possibly because your computer doesn't have GPS?

Thanks but I already knew that AG_STATIC was morphed into AG_TERRAIN.. I was just making a comment.

-added new "Location*" functions allowing to obtain last known location of the device (by using GPS or Network)

Mobile Network for 3/4g devices and cells would be my guess. I can tell you from a professional standpoint that getting a location via IP connection is inaccurate and infeasible.

The closest anyone can get to my IP seems to be the capital city an hour away from here. Location from 3/4G is probably obtainable through triangulation (maybe).

Or just nearest cell tower.

About the actor groups, I misunderstood your comment. My english knowledge isn't the best. My goal was not to lecture you, but to help you.
