I have something building tiles how *I* want them to look via tilemill but having spent a couple of hours on kosmtik I can't even get it to install. > Use any one of the standard tile rendering servers like renderd+mod_tile > or tirex+mod_tile.

Getting something actually working with my working tilemill style is something else I've been wasting time on :( The simple answer seems to be that there is no standard when it comes to mapping applications and everybody creates their own personal special such as kosmtik rather than working with established standards :( -- 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
