The latest TomTom OV2 database file consolidated by type has no temp catagory pocketgps_uk_temp.ov2. Anybody know why? Is it a mistake?

Thanks

It was announced but i can't find it at the minute. All temp cameras are now merged with their relevant other file, so Temp GATSOs are in the GATSO file etc....

and

8th Oct 2008 Release Announcment (4th item down)

Quote:
Version 6.102 - 08 OCT 08

This release sees 152 static and mobile speed cameras added/modified across the various speed camera databases by 81 users. Please keep submitting all sightings of mobile speed cameras so we can keep our database up to date with active sites. Apparently-inactive sites are regularly removed from the database.

This release also sees a major change in the way that Temporary Cameras are handled. Previously all temporary Gatsos, Monitrons and Truvelos were placed in the Temp file which was not speed zoned, whereas temporary SPECS were always in the SPECS file and speed zoned - but with no way to differentiate between temporary and permanent installations. As of todays release, all temporary cameras are prefixed with a "t" (tSPECS, tGATSO etc) and contained in the same files as the permanent installations. This also means that the Temp file is now disused so there is 1 less file to download / set up (although the file may still be downloaded for certain release formats until the next release!)

And if you normally install the latest DB by copy/paste without deleting the old ones first, remember now to delete the pocketgps_uk_temp.xxx files which are still on your device.
