4) Open SeeYou and select: tools/rastermaps.

Be sure you see all the maps and they are all checked. Like this screenshot below.
NOTE: If you see no maps, READ ON BELOW...

NOTE: If you see no maps, that means you will have to
click the 'Add' button and navigate to the folder where you installed the satelite images.
I found I had to navigate to: program files/seeyou/maps/CMR/NAmerica
then you MUST select all the map files (do this by clicking the 1st file, then SHIFT clicking the last file)
this will highlight all the files, now click "Open"
See screenshot below:

5) Now from the Main SeeYou window select: Tools/Options

Select: Map appearence and be sure the "Raster maps" is CHECKED. Like this screenshot below.

Remain in this options window and select: Flight/3D View
Be sure "Raster Maps" is CHECKED and Set the texture size as high as possible (your Graphics 3D card memory will be the only limit)
I also set the height exageration to 2. See screenshot below.

You are now ready to load a flight and view it in 3d!
Press the 3D view icon, or select View/3d View

During 3D playback press ctrl F7 to position the "camera" behind the glider or in the cockpit and enjoy your flight.
You can also set the playback speed from the "Clock" dropdown icon, and you can step forward and backwards, or jump to the next thermal using the arrows in the toolbar at the top.
