I am sorry that you found this asset poor. You could have asked for a refund, if it was poor stuff and high price. It does exactly what it says. The character's shadow is not really what this asset is about. I also don't believe that the coordinate transformations and dealing with Mercator projection are trivial. Many Unity developers lack programming experience but expect things to magically work. This asset is not one of those. It is a scripting integration tool and requires some basic knowledge of programming.

Thanks for your interest in this asset. I guess the frustrating part of using this asset is setting up a Google Static Maps API key. Google, did not require using a key up to a certain limit, but they changed this policy quite recently. You still get to use the maps service for free up to a certain limit, but you need to generate an API key and setup billing before you can use the service. Here is how to get a key: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/maps-static/get-api-key#get-an-api-key After you generate this key, you need to set it in GoogleStaticMap.cs as below: [Line 79] private string _apiKey = "YOUR_KEY_GOES_HERE"; Please feel free to email me if this did not solve your problem.

We did not receive your email. Please make sure to send an email to the address provided in this page (directly to the author). As the description says, you must obtain a google static maps API and put it in the code to use this asset. This change is because of Google’s policy change in July.
