So I read a little post about the new Google Earth update and how NYC is in 3D.
I decided to download Earth and look at Minneapolis (see above). So. Awesome.
To enable 3D buildings, just check "3D Buildings" in the sidebar. Then hold down right-mouse button and zoom in. Once you're in far enough, the view still start to tilt and the buildings will take on depth.
It is SO COOL to just fly around the city, I was looking at the U of MN campus and I recognized all the buildings instantly. I was half expecting to see little people moving around. I think they should add that, just for fun!
Welcome to SimWorld.
