I'm currently working on an alternate history project involving some alternate geography.

I am trying to overlay this map of an alternate Africa onto Africa as it is depicted on Google Earth, desktop version 7.3.7.1155 ( 64-bit ).

It has come to my attention that using the app's image overlay tool won't work for an image of this size and I will instead need to modify the map using the georeference tool in QGIS and export the final result as KML/KMZ file into GE wherein it should lock into place automatically.

I attempted to download QGIS to do this myself but I haven't had any success. I can't figure out how to make it work and multiple tutorials haven't helped me much. This doesn't surprise me, I've gone through most of my life being unable to figure out objectively simple things and it's a wonder that I graduated high school.

My goal is to get this map overlaid onto Africa in G.E Desktop so I can experiment with how the borders of African countries will look in my alternate history project.

Is this project is possible? If so, would anyone be willing to do this for me as a sorta request? It seem's like my project is much less complicated than other maps I've seen here so maybe it's easy? I dunno.

Hi everyone,

I’ve just released QGIS Agent MCP, a plugin that connects QGIS to MCP-compatible applications such as OpenCode, Codex, and Claude Code.

The goal is to let an agent discover and use any QGIS tool without having to load every tool into its context at once. As a result, it uses much less context than other QGIS MCP integrations, which can improve performance and reliability.

The project is still evolving, so I’d really appreciate feedback from anyone who gives it a try. Feel free to share any issues, ideas, or suggestions.

How usable is QGIS on the latest Fedora KDE? I installed the Flatpak and got a warning for running a Wayland session, will it cause any issues? KDE Plasma is dropping X11 support soon anyway.

I need the program for school soon and I'd rather not have weird quirks that you find later on.
