How to get your avatar on the user geographical map

New postby Raceray on 22.12.2008, 19:10

...
You want to find members with a motion simulator in near of you?
You want to invite members for a race with your motion simulator?
You are looking for a specific designed model of motion simulator in near of you?


The easiest way is to show your own avatar on the map of X-Sim members. No matter where you are from, you are invited to show us where you live.

Just follow the steps on the screenshot to publish yourself at
google usermap

Of course you dont have to set you home location exactly (privacy rules).
It´s sufficient when members roughly know where you are.




Hope you enjoy the feature. Do not hesitate to suggest improvements or report bugs.

EVERYONE is invited to take place at the map :D

Do not forget to select YES to show your Avatar at the Phooglemap!


Otherwise your location will be stored but not visible shown on the map!!!

regards, René

The german version does not work yet. I cannot access the setup menu in the user control panel.
The menue link UCP_PROFILE_PHOOGLE does not work.

But thanks for implementing my suggestion :cheers:

Just 11 members on the map currently.

You dont need to place the marker directly on your house. Just place it somewhere in your city, a local sight or forest for exapmle. I've placed my marker in the local open air pool :lol:

Yes, the meaning of this is to show to the world your generic location, not pin-point your house address!!! :lol:
