I have a strange problem. The problem is the following:

1) I calibrate the raster map to the appropriate coordinates
2) then i try to create KMZ tiles, which the application no problem at all

-- when importing KMZ into Google Earth, I get RED Xs in all the tiles. I try to recalibrate the raster map with the same results.

-- If I save the KMZ -- that contains the RED X tiles -- to my location in Google Earth and closing the application, the map will show up when I restart Google Earth.

-- Have tried to creating new KMZ file with previous map, and the KMZ have no problem showing up in Google Earth without saving it to my location.

any ideas why I getting RED X in all the tiles in this new map. Only difference is that new map is with .tif extension and the old map was with a jpg extension.

I've tiled a tif map in KMZ format with embedded jpeg and tif tiles and there wasn't problems.
Please send your raster map and .okm calibration file so I can do some tests.

The character # seems not be supported by Google Earth.
Please rename your .tif and .okm files and change inside .okm file the name of the filename (tag <filename> at row 8) and recreate the .kmz output with "Utilities - Map tiling" function.
