+jn3al1 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Hello, I recently added some maps to my garmin oregon 200 and deleted the maps to switch to paid maps and it deleted my basemap. I was wondering if anyone has the basemap for these units, I believe the oregons all have the same basemaps. Thanks in advance, I did a search but didn't really help. Quote Link to comment
+AV Dezign Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 you can use any map as a basemap, just change the name of the file to: gmapbmap.img I have Topo Ibycus set as my basemap Quote Link to comment
+jn3al1 Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share Posted January 27, 2010 Oh didn't know that was possible. I was thinking just incase I get rid of the unit for an upgraded model. I didn't want the next person to experience problems. Basemaps are routeable right? Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 You might be better off asking this in the GPS Units and Software forum Quote Link to comment

No, that's the only problem with assigning a map to basemap, you lose the routability , so might as well assign a map that is not routable to that one. At least it still was as of the last update I did of the unit, I have not kept up with the updates in a while. Quote Link to comment
