How can I make the Virtual Earth block use 3D mode?

Unfortunately you can't override the initialize method which makes the call to VirtualEarth's loadMap function.
However you could create your own block...

1) Go to "My Page"

2) "Create a Block"

3) Search for Virtual Earth in the blocks list

4) "Rip It"

5) Go to "Block Code"

6) In the VirtualEarthClass.prototype.initialize method change the line:

to

7) Save the block

8) Go to "My Projects"

9) Share the block

10) Now you should be able to use it in a mashup, you could of also done the same without sharing it but other users might want to use it
