Hi Felix, maybe I give it a try, but I still don't understand your problem reg. the script. If you already know that a single file doesn't work why don't you create 10 files, each being much smaller than 4GB? I thought the splitter option num-tiles= was implemented for this.

So yes - same family Id, description and so on - just a different filename. gmapsup1.img; gmapsup2.img and so on. MapInstall does the same if you send maps over 4GB to devices that can support several gmapsupp.img files. It's pretty cumbersome to run a script to only include individual .img files up to 4GB for each run... Essentially making it possible to create Europe continent map in gmapsupp.img format (several files) or Asia continent (or even whole world - but I guess no one will do so - except if cutting down data very strong). Currently mkgmap just creates gmapsupp.img files over 4GB - they cannot be used by any garmin device due to FAT32 limits.

Two gmapsupp files with different content but equal family-id, description etc? Doesn't sound like a good idea to me. My understanding is that a map creator has to decide what part of the world should go into one gmapsupp. Gerd ________________________________________ Von: mkgmap-dev <mkgmap-dev-boun...@lists.mkgmap.org.uk<mailto:mkgmap-dev-boun...@lists.mkgmap.org.uk>> im Auftrag von Felix Hartmann <extremecar...@gmail.com<mailto:extremecar...@gmail.com>> Gesendet: Montag, 8.

It would be nice if those gmapsupp.img files were somehow rastered - but even just according to mapid would be fine. -- Felix Hartman - Openmtbmap.org & VeloMap.org _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev
