I've found another advantage of making a gmapsupp.img visible in Basecamp: If your map consists of many layers, like contours, bike routes and so on, it was not possible to show them in one map in Mapsource (if those layers had different FID/PID) Now you can send all mapsets with Mapsource (or M

Hi Minko, I've seen a similar result in Basecamp where the basemap highways were visible along with the OSM map. This was for a map with no TYP file (or the default TYP file I'm not sure what mkgmap is doing these days). This didn't happen with a commercial map so there's definitely something miss

Just found out that you can make a gmapsupp.img on micro SD card or in your GPS unit visible in Basecamp. This becomes the common procedure by map sellers, they only deliver a gmapsupp on microSD card so you don't have to install the map on the pc anymore. By default the Ms (Mapsource) flag is
