Re: [mkgmap-dev] Changing styles and TYP integrating

Advantage of the mapnik.typ is that it looks like the 'default' osm map. Disadvantage are the ugly borders on (non touch-screen) older units. Have you got an example of another Typ file that looks good on the older units? For my cycling maps I've made two typ files, one for older units with very

Marko, I think it's a good idea to display cycleways as 0x07 (alleys according to garmin). I treat pedestrian the same as footway too, because many mappers use one of these for exactly the same roads. How about highway=service? I suggest to display them as type 0x06. Maybe with a

How much memory does your system have? If the systems starts to swap mkgmap will need multitudes of time it would need normally. The error message Too many heap sections: Increase MAXHINCR or MAX_HEAP_SECTS. sounds like overall memory problems. Please try to reduce the -Xmx3000M. If you don't

I think the problem could be the cloudmade extracts. At least 2 years ago they would not work. Try with geofabrik extracts instead. (and austria without splitting into at least 7-8 tiles will not work anyhow). On 03.02.2011 19:57, WanMil wrote: How much memory does your system have? If the
