Locus Free Beta 3.15.3.4 - Hill shading - Some areas in the sea are displayed ... faulty ?
Solved
Alloooo Houston ! We've got a problem ...
Hill shading - Locus PRO until last version (3.15.3) - Some areas in the sea appear like that :
Hill shading - Locus Free Beta - Last version (3.15.3.4) - Same areas :
With the new version of hill shading in Locus Free Beta, the problem start to be a little bit annoying no ?
Cheers,
Fifi
The same problem 
Fifi, may you please report issues related to Beta versions on forum? http://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?board=25.0
Every beta may have quite a lot of problems, and this is official support mainly for published versions. Thanks!
And this issue ... I'll check it.

Hmm are you using some own HGT files? With "S23E166.hgt" file downloaded directly over Locus, I have no such problems.

I have these HGT files from the very first time you've started the use of the SRTM. At his time, if i have a good memory, i had to download this files by my own. So, it is maybe a old HGT file or a corrupted one that need to be updated ... I try to download new ones directly over Locus and let you know.

Hmmm ... question : where i have to go know in Locus to download HGT files directly through Locus ? Tk u !

Here are all four options: http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:faq:how_to_add_map_shading#how_to_add_map_shading

Tk u ! In the mean time, i've found this page.
For info :
1. Option "Tap onto the GET buton next to the altitude field" is not working because the HGT files are already there i imagine. So, no possibility to update.
2. Option "Buy (another time) the "Lomap" of the country on Locus Store" will it update the GHT files too ?
3. Option "Create a new Waypoint and choose the Advanced Tab" as shown in the old video still on youtube : the advanced Tab is no more there.
So i choose the option : "download files from www..viewfinderpanoramas.org" and let you know
And Menion ! It is the week end and late ! Please, stop working and go to bed ! ;-) :-)

All good Houston !
HGT files updated / replaced with HGT files downloaded from www..viewfinderpanoramas.org and it's working fine know.
You've solved my problem Houston ! Tk u !
PS : the Beta version display seems to be slower than the Locus Pro version
EDIT : and for information, before my HGT update, i discovered that on a faulty sea area, in a new created waypoint, the altitude was something around -32768 m ... So, some of my HGT files were corrupted or Locus helped me to discover the deepest ocean hole of the Earth !!! Personally, i really like the second possibility ... ! :-)

Sleeping, in midnight? Too soon :).
Glad you solved it, perfect! And slower, yep , by my measurements probably twice a slower. If you compare quality of shading on your screenshots, you may see significant difference. This is the reason. As well as this: http://help.locusmap.eu/topic/slope-shading-in-different-colours-30-35-40#comment-25480
Possible speed improvements? Hard to say for now ...
