Device complains "cannot authenticate map". It seems Garmin requires + all Unicode maps to be signed. Non-Unicode maps (from openmtbmap project) work + well + + +Note +==== +(Of course you could also define the .img files by folder, and you probably +have to add the path wo mkgmap) This will create a gmapsupp.img file, that +you can upload to your GPS in USB mode (place it into /garmin folder on GPS +internal memory or memory card) + +Note that all 6*.img have to be from the same openmtbmap country file - +otherwise only one "country" will show in proper colours. You can instead of +deleting all but one typfile replace *.TYP with e.g. clas*.TYP or the full +name like clasde.TYP. + +-–family-id should be the same number as the first 4 digits of the maps (if +- you use a different number, you have to adjust the FID inside the +- .TYP-file). Note every map on your gps needs a different family-id (else +- they won't be shown). + +-–family-name can be set to any value (only use letters and numbers, no +- Umlauts or symbols) and will be shown as mapname on the GPS maplist. + +2 b) if you want to have contourlines (altitude lines) included too, just +change the above command from "6*.img" to "6*.img 7*.img" and put the *.img +from the contourline download into the same folder before running the above +command. + +
