Windows maps download tool for MapThis! by in7ane

[deniska]

in7ane, here is some suggestions to make your tool even better (feel free to disregard ;-)) :
1) removing old/legacy stuff - to clean up the space on screen (for example, i doubt that anyone uses [oGPSFS] button
2) display download progress (%) on taskbar while minimized
3) Help baloons, for main labels/components
For instance, not too many people know what "No GPSFS" check box really means and weather they need to check it..so little explanation (read from some config file?) would reduce the number of questions/complains that people post...

To deniska :

Thank you for your relpy, i now get the map be able to view if i use map this v0460 running 1.5 , however, if i use map this 0461s beta running under 3.11 through devhook, everytime when i start the program, it gives out a error message menu say "Loading USB Accessory module ...... error" , may I ask you how to fix it cuz i dont want to flash my PSP with 3.10OE or 0461s beta will only work under 3.10OE ? I already copy the usbacc.prx from 3.11 fw and the usbgps from maplus but i never be able to get Map This start, where should I copy the src folder to MS ? the root or inside game folder?
Thank you for your help.

kogetsu,
0461S requires 2 prx files which you have to extract from the 3.** firmware in order to make it work...
If you don't plan to use the program with psp-290 gps recever you may want to get a most current generic beta version of MapThis.
in any case search thru the 0.4* version release threads. they have the nifo on how to extract the required prx files and release info for the latest beta versions...

I downloaded the 0.461S from your site http://deniska.dcemu.co.uk/ and I did extract the usbacc.prx from 3.11 FW and usbgps from both 3.11 FW and maplus and they both doesnt work, the only different is, from your 0.461S nfo file it said you tested it under 3.03OE but I am using devhook to turn my PSP from 1.5 to 3.11 and then run Map This under 3.11 environment, the program loads up but give me the error msg. hmm....maybe thats why I didnt work. thank you for your reply and I will test it under 3.10 OE again and let you know if it works or not. Also, from the nfo, it didn't mention where I should put the SRC folder to and I suspect thats the reason why it didnt work, thus I would like to ask should I copy the SRC folder to the root of the MS or inside the game folder? thank you for your help

To deniska:

deniska, % done is now in the menu bar, I'll have a go at implementing help via tool tips loaded from a file (similar to how translation works).

deniska, MIB.42, testing of GPSFS maps is in (and it takes forever), let me know if this is what you had in mind (it would be good to get a copy of a corrupted map to test it, if anyone has one - could they please post it).

A viewer of GPSFS maps is also in - with a poor interface as promised (perhaps someone wants to write a plugin for World Wind?).

leon21ca, a cancel button has been added to the detail selection screen.

DennyPSP, the black background is a result of transparent PNGs being converted to JPEG (if you leave the JPEG checkbox checked you should get it). While skipped levels will always get the grey checkered missing tile background (you could change the blank.png in mapViewer/system but that's probably not a good idea).

My corrupt map is posted in the discussion forum, topic my psp hangs and then dies. You'll find the Divshare link there.

It has a download hole in it, so it chrashes mapthis versions 0.461S and 0.48

excellent work in7ane! GPSFS viewer works great! now we all can browse the maps before copy it to MS. Thanks for the cancel button, it make thing lot easier now. ;-) Keep up the good work! :-)
