Hi Gerd,

No, I can't create a gmapsupp because the whole Europe map is 11 Gb and the maximum size is 4Gb for one gmapsupp.

So I need to split my Europe map in several gmapsupp's but that's not a problem. Last year I could manage this with 3, but now I need at least 5.

However, I've also seen Mkgmap producing gmapsupp files >5 Gb which doesnt make any sense, because Garmin dont support this.

Problem is not the gmapsupp set, but the mapset for the pc / Basecamp.

I have set x-split-name-index and also added housenumbers from the French address database. I guess it would help to throw them out.

Last option is no big Europe map anymore or on without a search index... :-/

Hi Minko,

yes, the message is probably produced while writing
the index file. Presuming that this limit really exists
there is probably no program that works.
You may try if Basecamp is able to produce a gmapsupp
for all tiles.
If that doesn't work I assume that you have to reduce
the number of items that are indexed, e.g. POI.

Or maybe we can add code so that some POI are
created but not indexed. If I got that right
some devices would still show them.
