Did some trials to find a working combination. these options worked for me. I use MapsetToolkit to install/uninstall maps for Mapsource.
tile splitter --mapid=41000001 mapid must be a 8 digit number, last digit should be 1, multiple tiles will be numbered with increasing numbers, mkgmap will then use the same number for .img files
mkgmap options to use maps in Mapsource, don't use other options like mapname, product-id .... - series-name should be set to identify multiple maps in Mapsource when selecting them. If not used all maps are name "OSM Map" - family-id must be set to different values for multiple maps to make them available in parallel in Mapsource - overview-mapname must be 8 digits otherwise Mapsource crashes. optional but nice to name the overview map same as map tiles. mkgmap default is to name 1st tile xxxxxxx1 ... and overview map xxxxxxx0 - family-name, description are optional, not sure where this info is used, maybe on the device.
tdbfile family-id=41 family-name=OSM_xxxx series-name=OSM_xxxx description=OSM_routing_map overview-mapname=41000000
Very nice summary, I'll try it later. What about pasting your info directly to the mkgmap wiki? Thanks, Paul -- Don't take life too seriously; you will never get out of it alive. -- Elbert Hubbard
