TeamTJ Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 Is there an easy way to download all the waypoints of the caches I've found into a single .loc file? Morgan TeamTJ Quote Link to comment
+Brian - Team A.I. Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 Well, since you are a paying member, and haven't found a huge number of caches, it should be pretty easy to get them into a PocketQuery. I didn't look at whether or not you've cached in other states, but if it's fairly localized, you can tailor one for caches found within x miles of your home coords. With 475 under my belt, I haven't yet figured out why my find PQ doesn't show but a little over 300 something caches, when all but 18 are in-state. Brian Team A.I. Quote Link to comment
+Prime Suspect Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 Download all of them in a single LOC file? No, can't be done, for a number of reasons. The main one is that some of the caches you've found have now be archived. You can only get a LOC file for an archived file from that cache's page. "Don't mess with a geocacher.

+geo-jedi Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 We've downloaded ours using Pocket queries but somehow it seems not to want to send Finds from archived caches (if memory serves me). Team Geo-Jedi, Searchers 4 Ground Truth Quote Link to comment
+Jamie Z Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 A single .loc file? Um, I can't do that for you, but I can get all your finds into several .loc files. Somehow, someone knows how to merge them. Use this link and you can checkmark all your caches 25 at a time and download them as .loc files. The only flaw is the archived caches can't be downloaded from this page, but they can be downloaded from the cache page, so you'll have to do the few archived caches one-at-a-time. Hope this works for you. Jamie Quote Link to comment

Once you have several loc files, open each of them in EasyGPS. Change the size of each window so you an see multiple loc files on the same screen. Then on one of the open windows go to "edit" and "select all". Drag and drop all the waypoints from one window into another. Do this as many times as is necessary to copy all the waypoints into one file. Save that one. Delete the rest. Quote Link to comment
TeamTJ Posted October 2, 2003 Author Share Posted October 2, 2003 OK, I got them all in one .loc with your help, thank you. Now, is it possible to get a map showing where I've been and in what order, similar to the TB travel maps? Thanks again! Morgan TeamTJ Quote Link to comment
+Brian - Team A.I. Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 Nope, at least not with any conventional means. Brian Team A.I. Quote Link to comment

I have seen where people got a travel bug tag and would log it into and out of each cache they visited. In effect they were the travel bug. A search of the Travel Bug site was able to come up with a few examples: All Who Wander AltDotAir Cacher Tracking Bug Dick&Jill's Travels Where in the world is JT @ Worldtraveler Quote Link to comment
