Download Google Earth 7.1.2 build 2019
Google has released version 7.1.2 of Google Earth. Among other things, this program allows you to zoom in and view a large number of points of interest from space, including cities, but also objects below sea level and even on Mars. It is also possible to plot a route and print it. From version 7.0 it is possible to view cities in 3d and there is a tour guide. Since the previous entry in the Meuktracker, the following adjustments have been made:
Issues fixed in Google Earth Client version 7.1.2.2019
- The “Enable Controller” option in user preferences is now turned off by default. This prevents red directional arrows from displaying as a result of uncalibrated joysticks and other controllers being connected to Earth at startup.
- For enhanced security, “Use HTTPS for Google connections” is now toggled on by default.
- We fixed a bug whereby the cache size rose above user-specified limits.
- We fixed a crash resulting from searching on some Windows machines.
- We updated the LEAP API to version 1.08.
- We reduced LEAP controller sensitivity to user hand motions. This enables a smoother flight and greater control over your flight path when using a LEAP.
Issues fixed in Google Earth Client version 7.1.1.1888
- We updated the LEAP API to version 1.0.8 and fixed a crash affecting a portion of users running Earth on Windows XP. If you want to use a LEAP device with Google Earth, ensure you are running LEAP driver version 1.0.8 + from the LEAP Motion website.
- The “Enable Controller” option is now default on. If you have an uncalibrated external controller (such as a gaming joystick) connected to your computer, this could result in the Earth spinning with arrows displaying to signify movement. As a workaround, we suggest the following:
- Turning off “Enable Controller” in the “Navigation” tab of Options/Preferences
- Unplugging your external controller, or
- Recalibrating your external controller
