+Labrador Wild Man Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Hi all Looking for information on the ibycus maps just not sure where to look Just got my 62s will lbycus topo work with the 62s and basemap plus how update are they I brought the garmin V4 topo and all the streets i am looking at changed years ago with new names and garmin has not changed them so outdate anyhelp would be great thanks LWM Quote Link to comment
+dfx Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I see you got the Ibycus map for your nuvi back in August. You'd do the same things to get it onto the 62 as you did to get it onto the nuvi. The difference is that on the 62, you can have multiple maps loaded at the same time (unlike on the nuvi), so if you want to take advantage of that, rename the file that gets generated on the device (gmapsupp.img) to something else with an .img extension, like ibycus.img. Also do that if you already have a gmapsupp.img file on there before you start sending over new maps (i.e. rename your gamin map to garmintopo.img or whatever), otherwise this map will get overwritten.

+Viajero Perdido Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Yes, they'll work with the 62, and they're reasonably up to date. Incredible bang for the buck. For anybody who doesn't like using torrents, here's a download site for Ibycus Topo 4.0, the latest version: http://hotfile.com/l...1629447/a614b22 Quote Link to comment

Newb888 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Is 4.0 still the latest? Quote Link to comment
+Viajero Perdido Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Yes. I'm guessing he's moved on to other things. He floated a trial balloon a while ago, but it's been pretty quiet since then: http://forums.Ground...1 Quote Link to comment
+Red90 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 He just built a house and is I think fairly busy. I'm sure he will get back to it at one point. Quote Link to comment
