+-=(GEO)=- Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 Hi, I wanted to let you know that GpxSonar v1.5 Beta is finally out! You can find all the details at http://gpxsonar.homeip.net/ Cheers, -Fabien. Quote
+Night Stalker Posted May 29, 2006 Posted May 29, 2006 Unfortunately at least one piece of software that I have to have is stuck in Windows CE 2002. since Gpxsonar is not backwards compatible I can't use it. Maybe if my Pocket PC crashes and I lose everything I will upgrade. Quote
+NWMOhunter Posted May 29, 2006 Posted May 29, 2006 I'm gonna give this one a try here today. I was just about to head out after some caches so I'll sure give it a try today and see what I think. Quote
+forman Posted May 29, 2006 Posted May 29, 2006 The upgrade looks great. I did notice that the files are in a different place on the PPC and they are zipped. Is that the way it is supposed to be? Quote

Maybe if my Pocket PC crashes and I lose everything I will upgrade. Slightly OT but... I would suggest using a backup tool like Sprite Backup. I did this on my older iPAQ 2975 when I upgraded to WM2003. It restored everything just fine. -al Quote
+NWMOhunter Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 Well I tried to post a question up on the GPXSonar forums and it tells me that my account has been locked or not approved yet. I can't get some files to open with this program. I open the file that I exported via GSAK and only some of the caches will open. The little 4-colored square opens up like Windows is thinking, but nothing ever happens. Now, whenever I open GPXSonar the square is open like it is thinking. I can still click on some of the caches and get some of them to open, but only a select few will open. I'm using a Cingular 8125 phone running Windows ME 5.0. This is not the SmartPhone version.

+NWMOhunter Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 I'm guessing Fabien doesn't check this forum very often. Hard to get a question answered when you can't get on their forum and he don't check this forum. Quote

Hi Matt, If you're seeing the '4-colored square' indefinitely, it's because the application has crashed. Can you please provide me with the file that you're trying to open so that I can reproduce the problem? So you know, v1.5 is still under development and therefore, not stable yet. Your mileage will vary I checked the status of your account on the site and there's nothing wrong with it. You should be able to login just fine. Cheers, -Fabien. Quote
+NWMOhunter Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 Fabien, I sent you a PM. Hopefully you can help me understand it and it might help you clear up a bug as well. Also, still having troubles with the forum so I reset my password and hopefully that will help. Thanks! Quote

+MCGEODE Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 Is there a planned final release date for 1.5? I have had consistent problems with lost notes, bookmarks and personal settings with 1.4x I have used this with WM2003 and WM5 with similar results. Thanks for the time and expertise you have put into this app! Quote
+MariettaGecko Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Is anyone else having trouble trying to access the site? I've been trying to check for a newer version than v1.4.0, and the only thing I can find is a mirror site which carries v1.3.x. Has the link changed? Quote
+Wadcutter Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 The guy who designed GPXSonar no longer supports it which is a real shame. Great program. If someone wants to pick up the code and carry on with supporting GPXSonar he'll let them have it. In the meantime you can get it here: GPXSonar Quote

If someone wants to pick up the code and carry on with supporting GPXSonar he'll let them have it. This makes me a sad puppy, although it also makes me seriously tempted to re-learn how to write this code so that I can support this thing and build it out more. I just loaded v1.5, and it's awesome. I love some of the new features. I'll look into the possibility. I believe that there are other people who might be interested in having this software maintained. That said, would anyone be interested in seeing this software maintained and upgraded over time? Or is everyone abandoning this software for Cachemate (or something else)?
