Hi Gerd,

product-id: 1
draw-priority: 20
country-name: Europe
country-abbr: EU
style-file: Full
name-tag-list: name,int_name,name:en,name:nl,name:de,name:fr,place_name
generate-sea: land-tag=natural=background
precomp-sea: Sea\sea_20130308.zip
bounds: bounds_20130308.zip
location-autofill: is-in,nearest
x-housenumbers
tdbfile
latin1
code-page: 1252
show-profiles: 1
ignore-maxspeeds
remove-short-arcs
min-size-polygon: 4
reduce-point-density=1
reduce-point-density-polygon=3
merge-lines
add-pois-to-areas
add-pois-to-lines
preserve-element-order

nsis

java command:

java -Xmx1250m -jar %MKGMAP% --output-dir=%date% --family-id=%FID% --overview-mapname=OFM_%mapname% --x-overview-add-lines --x-overview-add-polygons --series-name="OFM (%mapname%v%date%)" --family-name="OFM (%mapname%)" --area-name="OFM_%mapname%(%date%)" -c %argsfile% --description="OFM_%mapname%(%date%)" %typfile% 2>log.txt

%argsfile% = mkgmap.args *.img

I have also tried it with *.o5m files or an .osm file but they all crash.
Using the default style didnt help too.
