On my Explorist GC I went into my Setting.xml file and changed <Setting name="GEOCACHES_FOUND" type="int">589</Setting> to match my lifetime found. The problem is when I make another find, the count doesn't update. Just seeing if anyone has ran into this problem or figured how to fix it?

Rick345,
To add the maps you have subscribe to either Digiglobe or National Geographic through the Magellan website, then download it through Vantage Point. Then you save the map to the /Maps folder in your GPS. You can also download maps from other source too, I just haven't found any.

When I'm updating my eXplorist, I just download the file to my desktop, open up the geocache folder on the eXplorist, delete any old files and put in the new ones. I use a mac so I'm not sure if this works on other computer systems.
What program do you use? GSAK?

I recently successfully updated my Explorist GC to v2.15. To mark my finds, I took the .gpx from My Finds PQ and just renamed it as Magellan_Geocache_Extention.gpx. I don't think this is the correct way to do it though. The actually file wont import to GSAK. Does anyone know the correct way to transfer the data? Thanks!

Well I just recently updated my Explorist GC form v1.7 to v2.15. I realized my map did not install so I cleared some files to do a fresh install. When I deleted some file, the updater said no Explorist found. No I have only a simple menu with NO working features on it. Is there a way to "Flash" it or some other reload on it? **** PLEASE HELP ****

Has anyone out there figured out how to tell who is watching your Travel Bugs? I just see a few of them that are being watched, and I can't help to wonder who is watching it!

I'd make sure you're using zeros instead of O's! That's usually the problem I run into!

I have a few Travel Bugs I'd like to send back out. I was wondering if anyone knew where to purchase replacement copy tags, or just a duplicate travel bug dog tag? Thanks!

Does anyone have an app that works good for Waymarking? It doesn't sound like Groundspeak has anything in the works for now! Any ideas?

I don't want to hack my awards. If I wanted to, I found out how to already. I just wanted to know what is required for the following:
Trifecta – original cache
Trifecta – ape cache
Trifecta – headquarters cache
antique compass
futuristic compass
nature background
sleuth/spy background
antique map background
treasure map background
dinosaurs waypoint icons
insects/bugs waypoint icons
nature/tree/flower waypoint...
I can not seem to find that anywhere!
Thanks @jbuyense

Ok I've seen posts about how to hack your awards.ini file on the Magellan Explorist GC to unlock awards and merits. I can't seem to find the correct way to unlock these items! If you know or have a link to it, please let me know!

Does anyone have any ideas to customize your field notes? I'm looking at something live using Microsoft Word and Access so that I can count the number find per log. Using Mail Merge I can only seem to generate 1 record per page. Just curious if anyone has tried this! Thanks!
