Description Pedroleouf 2006-12-22 08:08:06 UTC

Google earth is working (no 3D problems, no emerge bug, ...) but when I try to look much nearly the earth, since 1500m alt., it become white little by little.

I'm so sorry for by bad english, I'll try to explain you with a schema:

during a zoom in operation:

altitude:
10000m     <-- correct images
5000m      <-- ok too
1500m      <-- start of brightness increasment
<=500m     <-- view totally gray (bright grey, nearly white)

I hope you understand me.

Thx

Well, while we understand you, there's exactly zero we could fix it. You need to report this to Google.

As already noted above, we can't fix binary-only stuff. Thanks.
