Hi Ticker, see https://www.mkgmap.org.uk/websvn/revision.php?repname=mkgmap&rev=3948 https://www.mkgmap.org.uk/websvn/revision.php?repname=mkgmap&rev=3949 the sortResource.patch reverts these changes. In Mapsource the results are a bit better with your patch. I'll try again with my Oregon later. Gerd

One more issue with the Tread device.
by Joao Almeida 22 Aug '23

I'm still working on translating my style and typ file to a version that the Garmin Tread is happy with. But I found a new issue, this time with polygons. Normally the (non mapped areas) are drawn by the x4B00 polygon with a draworder of 0. However the Tread does not render the 4B00 polygon, in day mode there is no issue but in night mode those non mapped areas are completely black. ( and there are lots of them ) for example around all the map highways and other areas. It's more of an annoyance than anything else. But is there a way to change the tag that mkgmap gives to non mapped areas? for example the x2700 polygon instead of the x4800? Thanks

Hi all, i am trying to import an osm europe map into Garmins Basecamp. I downloaded the europe-latest.osm.pbf from Geofabrik. Then i used the splitter with the following command. ``` java -Xmx20g -jar splitter-r653/splitter.jar --output=o5m --max-areas=4096 europe-latest.osm.pbf ``` It finished after writing a series of 2105 .o5m files. By creating the gmapi directory with the following command, i got an Index Out of Bounds Exception. ``` java -Xmx20g -jar mkgmap-r4910/mkgmap.jar --index --improve-overview --gmapi -c template.args ``` Here the Stack trace: ```` Mkgmap version 4910 Time started: Tue Aug 08 12:39:45 CEST 2023 WARNING (global): Setting max-jobs to 20 SEVERE (global): Unexpected error java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException at java.base/java.io.BufferedInputStream.implRead(BufferedInputStream.java:375) at java.base/java.io.BufferedInputStream.read(BufferedInputStream.java:361) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.reader.osm.o5m.O5mBinHandler.readFile(O5mBinHandler.java:148) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.reader.osm.o5m.O5mBinHandler.parse(O5mBinHandler.java:116) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.reader.osm.OsmMapDataSource.parse(OsmMapDataSource.java:167) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.reader.osm.OsmMapDataSource.load(OsmMapDataSource.java:142) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.MapMaker.loadFromFile(MapMaker.java:165) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.MapMaker.makeMap(MapMaker.java:58) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main.lambda$processFilename$1(Main.java:291) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:317) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main.endOptions(Main.java:513) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.CommandArgsReader.readArgs(CommandArgsReader.java:126) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main.mainStart(Main.java:147) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main.main(Main.java:118) SEVERE (global): Exiting due to unexpected error Number of ExitExceptions: 1 Time finished: Tue Aug 08 12:39:47 CEST 2023 Total time taken: 1 second ``` I assume the problem occures because of the huge template.args file (~6000 lines), but i'm not that much into java to deterrmine the exact cause. Any ideas? Cheers, Thomas

Garmin Tread img file issues with Place icons
by Joao Almeida 06 Aug '23

Hi, I've recently moved from my Garmin Montana 700i to a Garmin Tread SxS Edition. I have found issues with the maps, and I wonder if anyone can help. The issue is that the place points for multiple tags from OSM are not displayed in the Garmin Tread, for example, shops, Gates/barriers, toilets, accommodation and others. This is clearly an issue with the Garmin Device, however if I can't find a way to fix it, it will render the use of custom, OSM maps in newer generations of garmin devices potentially unusable. Anyone has a "debug" OSM file that can be used to help with the investigation of this issue or any ideas about the issue? Cheers Joao
