Hi Felix, I also thought about this alternative. Sad news that it doesn't work :( Yesterday I managed to download a map for Europe, so I think I have now the data to play with this.

I'm pretty sure the <4GB gmapsupp part files - shouldn't be too difficult if mkgmap can associate the address index for the choses tiles only. Right now for scripting I can only see how to create gmapsupp part files without address search. Cutting Europe into smaller parts using osmcut or similar takes quite a lot of time, plus if you compile a full map of Europe anyhow already - would kinda double the work. And you would need to adapt the area rather often as osm data increases... Having mkgmap split the map into parts would be great therefore (and also put out some sort of parts.list similar to the areas.list from splitter would be even better).

Hi Carlos,
splitting could be useful, when you'd like to create img in one step. Other option is to install map on PC and then use MapInstall to create img. MapInstall does splitting for big maps.
Hi Andrej I know I can use MapSource/MapInstall to send parts of a map to device, but many people have problems using this method, so I would like to have way to provide ready to use gmapsupp files of my maps _______________________________________________ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk<mailto:mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk> http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev -- Felix Hartman - Openmtbmap.org & VeloMap.org
