Forum:Adding KML KMZ file types

KML/KMZ data files are used by virtual earth applications like Google earth and Microsoft's thing. Using them, we can play back tours of migrations of families, or annotated maps, for instance click this one for Donner Party if you have google earth.

Might be a good thing for other wikia too. But could we have it added to accepted file types for Genealogy wikia (aka Familypedia). Thanks - ~  Ph l o x  20:17, 16 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I think i'm perfectly able to understand this need since i have a french wikia about 3D modeling where we could be in need, one day, to host .obj files.
 * I think for this to be taken care of faster, simply use special:contact here or (recommended) on the wiki where this need to be added. — TulipVorlax 19:41, 17 May 2009 (UTC)


 * For the record, for anyone coming to this later, we can do, but not  . --Uberfuzzy 20:36, 19 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I dont know much about thoses file formats, what are the differences, or why the last one can't be use ? Licence problem ? — TulipVorlax 21:39, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Using the Google Maps extension (GME), it is possible to export KML files. However, with the new version of GME (0.9.4), this special page is not recognized while it was the case before. See for instance this link. Would it be possible to reinstall version 0.9.3? --G.E. 08:14, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
