It is perhaps time to review the front page yet again to provide better links to some of the alternatives. This is a major WTF change which will affect a LOT of third party users of the current map. The changes to date have been bad enough, but I WAS hoping to have an alternative rendering engine working by now so I can switch my UK location maps to retain the main selling point for using OSM over Google ... the roads are the right colours ... but while I've got the planet file replicating and tilemill is running, getting the current style setup actually producing tiles still eludes me :( Lack of time is the problem, but a decent set of instructions to work with openstreetmap-carto and manage a branch off the current style would be helpful! -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
