Help needed.... (please don't shout at me!)

[+Sensei TSKC]

Having

a) just returned to caching after a little break and

acquired a new laptop as the old one broke

 

I have managed to re-setup my GSAK. I have re-installed my MMap BUT for the life of me, cannot understand/re-install the macro/script/custom icons etc to export to MMap from GSAK.

 

I tried to read through the thread but got lost. Can anyone give this 'newbie' an idiots guide? I believe the original scripts etc were by roolku and Edgemaster.

 

I still have to sort out TT custom export icons to PPC from GSAK too, but one thing at a time.

This page does a good job, worked for me anyway.

There's a version 6/7? I thought the latest version of MM was V5?!

I think he meant GSAK

I have been fairly happy with the default icons but I thought I would have a look at what all the fuss was about

I followed all the steps in the link above and it all made sense - the only problem is that I end up with every cache and waypoint as a small blue dot

What have I missed???

 

Edited - I found it

 

For some reason I installed GSAK in c:\gsak and memory.txt has the path to the icons embedded in it. A quick find and replace to give the correct path and the export now gives me all the lovely icons!

 

Many thanks to all involved in generating them!

 

Cheers,

Trevor

You need to edit the memory.txt file and point the userimages directory to where yours is. My problem was that my default directory is C:\GSAK.. and the memory.txt file has it as C:\program files\GSAK...

 

removing the Program files etc worked for me. It's a good guide but use it in conjunction with the readme.txt file in the ZIP file as well.

 

Hope that helps.If not, PM/EMail me

(I'm nearly back to being good again!!!)

Wow that was quick!

 

You must have been posting as I corrected the orginial - many thanks for your reply anyway

You're welcome.

GSAK used to install into C:/Program Files/GSAK but when Vista came out the Program Files folder disappeared so to make installation easier the default became C:/GSAK. That's why you had the problem
