AGX 2500 basemaps broken again?

[MichaelLacy]

The default basemaps for ArcGIS Explorer Desktop (build 2500) do not display in the gallery.  From this post, it sounds like some change was made to ArcGIS Online that prevented them from loading before.  Has it happened again?  The workaround from before still works -- set your Region to "World" in your ArcGIS Online profile, and then sign in to ArcGIS Online within AGX.

Thanks,

Mike

Yes,  it has happened again.   We are modifying ArcGIS Explorer for the next release, to be more resilient in regards to future ArcGIS online updates.  The next release should be available in Q1 of 2015.

OK, thanks.  Do you know if they will modify ArcGIS Online to enable 2500 to work until the next version is released?  If not, we will probably end up adding the default basemaps to our custom basemap gallery, since we use an ncfg file to configure AGX for our users.
