Yeah I have read this thread and looked at all of the examples and it seems like they are using v2 and not v3, and they are loading the custom map the same way I do on my first example and not the new way introduced in v3. Or is it just me missunderstanding the v3 feature that it is not actual map "replacement" just overlay for the original Google map? Would that meen I would still have to load my maps the old way or is there a new easier way to do this?
I have tried out multiple methods and combinations of what is documented here:http://code.google.com/intl/no/apis/maps/documentation/ javascript/overlays.html#MapTypeInterface but I have yet to figure out something that actually works and loads my custom tiles. Thanks for the reply.
