|
|
hello
got a new tomtom2 with the uk maps also with the gps reciever destinator gps,works great no problems,
now trying to add more maps of the netherlands etc etc.
the maps load up to the same card as the great britain maps, but the tomtom nav when file-switch map is used says no other maps installed,, perhaps anyone knows where the registry or congig file is so i cen tell tomtom where the new map is. we dont think were doing anything diff as we let the softwear load to its own areas
btw its a ipaq 3870
regards
rob |

The registry part for this is at
HKCU\Software\TomTom\TomTom Navigator\Maps
The LastMap should point to the string entry who's value points to the directory where the map data is stored. It may be necessary that the map directory ends with "Navigator Map" but that's unconfirmed. _________________ Lutz

doh!!!!!
found the registry using the TRE editor
the string is correct but only shows
lastmap "great_britain"
Great_britain "\storage card\great_britain navigator map\
can another map be added here for tom tom to reconise?
map for benelux-nl
added
benelux-nl "\storage card\benelux-nl navigator map\
didnt help
perhaps cant just add another map via the reg.. |

no deff the right maps for tomtom2,
just seem may poss be the wrong version for the navigator.
could be that tomtom has diff versions of software for different maps.
will go back to the destinator seems more stable with the various maps,

it is not sufficient to just create the entry for the belgian maps. "LastMap" also needs to point to it. _________________ Lutz
