[mkgmap-dev] mkgmap-dev Digest, Vol 143, Issue 54

Wed Jun 17 14:42:02 BST 2020

Hi Gerd,

I've removed all my maps except the gmapbmap.img and gmaptz.img which were
provided with the GPS itself.

The result is better: some tiles are still missing when displaying the map
at high scale BUT when I zoom in on those tiles, the map appears. Here are
2 screenshots.

High scale:
[image: 327.bmp]

Zoom in on the missing area:
[image: 338.bmp]

If the problem comes from the mapid, how can I rename default 63240001,
63240002 to whatever values ? (I would like to be able to load Belgium maps
with the France one).

Thanks,
Pierre
