Hello dear Creators!
I have a problem with the map editor.
I can't find the aerial url's, because i don't know how can i use the openstreetmap website, and i can't find any correct tutorial for it.
I can't do any map without the aerial link. 
Can you help me with this pls?
Hi, if you want to use openstreetmap the link should be "http://a.tile.openstreetmap.org/~z/~x/~y.png".
If it doesn't work, there is also Server "b" or "c", you could change it by replacing the letter "a" in front of ".tile.openstreetmap.org" with "b" or "c"
The next thing you have to do is selecting the radiobutton for "PNG" as fileformat and activate the checkbox for using the aerial link.
In the german options-window it looks like
For other aerial links you could visit https://www.gcmods.de/luftbild…10/04/luftbilder-in-lotus it's in german language but the only website i know so far.
Well, i succesfully did the link but it not works with a; b or c server. Nothing happen.
you forgot to select PNG 
There is also an error in the link, just put "http://a.tile.openstreetmap.org/~z/~x/~y.png" in without editing it at the x, y and z coordinates, these values are given by the map editor.
As I don't know how many trials you did so far, I would also recommend you to clean your cache folder. It's located in Lotus installation folder ".../steamapps/common/LOTUS-Simulator/Cache".
The main content of the cache folder consists of tile textures for the aerial maps and DEM (Digital Elevation Models).
You can easily clean up your cache folder because the Map Editor recreates all necessary files. There is no need for a complete reinstallation. 
Cleaning the cache can also be seen as an aid to the Map Editor, so the Map Editor must therefore download new data and can not use the old "broken" files.
Oh guys, i did it!!! I play Lotus on an other computer and it works!!!! I can start already my real map!!! 
which options do you choose and which link are you using right now?
Please always send your log file (in this case logfile_editor.txt) if something like that happens, and you can also send your system specifications if you already have doubts.
As I can see on the screenshots, nothing is wrong with the options. There are, however, three questions besides the above.
Small excursion to the third question: OpenStreetmap does not support aerial map like Google or Bing. As the name already suggests, there are only street maps available with this service.
Please don't forget about the logfile an your system specifications

I think you were right when you thought it was your hardware.
Your log file indicated that you are working with a nvidia gt220 without noting the driver version. I looked at the specifications on the NVIDIA website and found that your card only supports OpenGL 3.1. https://www.geforce.com/hardwa…rce-gt-220/specifications
If you have a look at the minimum requirements at Steam, you will see that OpenGL 3.3 is required.
In the meantime, I would say the first posts are going bit in the wrong direction and that your hardware is the main part of your problem.
Although the log file indicates that you are running OpenGL 3.3, your graphic card may not handle this because of its own limitations.
Edit: Maybe you could tell us the rest of your hardware (CPU + RAM), so we could have a look if the rest of your pc should be capable to run Lotus.
I thinked, there is the problem 
Here is my computer's hardware:
Processor: Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU E5700 @ 3.00GHz 3.00Ghz
RAM: 4,00 GB
