That seems to have done the trick :) I've emailed the CreateIMG author, referring him to this discussion, in case he'd like to issue an updated version. I'll also investigate some of the other new options you describe, but for now I think I've got something which works pretty well. Thank you!

OK... that worked out fairly well. I'm now using a slightly tweaked version of the default style supplied with mkgmap, and getting good results. I still think there's something strange going on with routing, though, perhaps with the new version (4.5.0) of BaseCamp. This area of the map

Hi John, I did not suggest to do that because I was unsure what style you are using. The styles shipped with CreateIMG-beta09.zip don't contain the needed changes which are documented here: http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/news/2013/12/22/more-flexibility-in-style-files-style If you make sure that the

Thank you, Gerd, I've tried to update my copy of CreateIMG with up to date versions of splitter and mkgmap, and routing now seems to work properly :) Perhaps I should try to contact the CreateIMG author, and suggest that he may want to update his release. -- Cheers, John In article
