Oh, yes! There is indeed an entry for “geo-referenced: true” in the alignment report.
I remember trying something with xmp from this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hTyEhbmjFE&feature=youtu.be but it didn’t quite yield the results I wanted so I abandoned the idea. I didn’t know this is about geo-referencing.
I had a hunch that this might have been the issue at first but that’s why I reset all my settings (with the shift + startup method) and also deleted anything RC related I could find. There must be something else then somewhere. How do I get rid of it?
Regarding your other questions: yes I did rotate the ground plane in my previous projects and no, I don’t have the project where I tried the xmp stuff anymore.
