Hi,
that sounds like you compare Flash with Bingmaps (when running locally the Flash-fallback) and HTML5 with Googlemaps (online the normal HTML5 version), right?
Some notes for more clarification:
- HTML5 can't run locally on file:// urls in some browsers due local security restrictions
- the older krpano version 1.18 will fallback to using Flash instead of HTML5 in this case (when using the default settings, btw - in version 1.19 there is an error note and a redirection to the krpano testing server here - that should be better to avoid exactly such misunderstanding)
- Google-Maps is only available in HTML5, the Flash-API was disabled some time ago from Google
- therefore the default vtour skin is automatically using Bing-Maps for Flash
That means for local testing 'always' use a localhost server, e.g. like the krpano Testing Server. Additionally also always test both - HTML5 and Flash - that's possible simply by adding '?html5=only' or '?flash=only' to the tour url address.
Best regards,
Klaus
