Hi All,
I've been experimenting with Garmin BaseCamp opening gmapsupp.img files that I create. It works fine for some files (even getting the .TYP styling correct) but not for others. After a few hours of testing it seems that it'll open gmapsupp.img files created from 1-20 .osm files but not 30+ .osm files. I'm not certain yet if it's the exact number of files, or the combined size that triggers the failure.
Does anyone have any experience with this? or know if there's a particular limit? Anyone been able to generate gmapsupp.img covering (say) the whole UK and get them to open with BaseCamp? Have you tried if there is a difference whether the gmapsupp got created by mkgmap, sendmap or Basecamp/Mapsource?? Maybe mkgmap makes some mistakes when creating the gmapsupp, and on big files it doesn't work. Note however that in any case a map like whole UK will take quite some time to import to Basecamp (and lots of RAM). I'm willing to do more troubleshooting if that'll help.
Cheers, Andy
