Custom Maps Stopped Working

[mjmfgm]

Hi there, i am trying to figure out why my custom maps stopped working After Updating to Mapsource version 6.15x . the Overview Map and Mini Map in MapSource do not work anymore and i can't figure that out.

 

I got some help from cypherman ( thanks cypherman ) however I do not know the reason and therefore i cannot fix the problem. If I know what Garmin changed and or get some type of clue what changed than I can change my maps to reflect the changes.

 

Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Maps are on wrong directory? 6.15 wants them on another.

Oh, thanks for your very fast reply, where do i need to put the them?

I must say that the only thing that is not working are the overview maps in Mapsource, sorry if I confused anybody.

Can you explain what you mean by "not working"?

 

If you mean you cannot see any map detail - just a white rectangle - then zoom in. If you mean Mapsource crashes, then it may be an inappropriate FID/Product codes. Whether or not your custom map works in Mapsource also depends on what versions of cGPSmapper and MapsetToolkit you used to compile the maps. I've heard there are some issues with some of the recent versions.

 

Do the maps work correctly in your GPS?

thank you Sir for your response,

the maps work fine with no problem on all GPSr I tested ( 11 ). The overview maps do not display in Mapsource starting with version 6.15x, the prior version of Mapsource 6.14x the overview maps display fine.

 

I use cGpsmapper version .98 and tried that even with my older version .97. Both versions have the same issue. displaying fine in the Garmin MapSource version 6.14x but not in version 6.15x.

 

I tied to zoom in and the overview maps do not display what so ever, it doesn't matter what zoom level i use?

 

Again thank you very much for your help.

Thanks for letting me know, however that does not help.

 

The maps are working fine on any Garmin GPSr, just the overview maps are not dispalying in Mapsource. There must be a difference between version 6.14x and version 6.15x
