Hi,
I have PSP with 1.50 firmware and Holux 236 and I tried to run Mapthis on it but the program doesn't run. I replace Holux EBOOT.PBP from 0.497 Update with EBOOT.PBP of "mapviewer" folder and "system" folder from MapViewer_v03. Can anybody tell me how to run this application on 1.50 firmware

I have a problem when i try to load a map with my psp... It just freezes, and i don't know what to do... the maps included work, but my own maps don't... Can anyone help me? The orange light from my ms keeps blinking like hell, and i left my psp up for 3 hours, and still it didn't load... my map is 6 mb, kernel 1.50, placed it in game150, and i'm running 3.40 OE-A... I just can't get it to work, and in two days i need it to travel... Plz help?

dude, what version of the mapthis software are you running? what version of the gmdl? are you sure you are loading the latest versions of both? 0.499 mapthis and 0.4.16 or 0.4.17 of gmdl? sounds like your not.

Hi all - couldn't find any info by searching but I have a question - is it possible to extract maps from other websites? Reason being is that there is a website called diddlefinger.com that has the Google maps for Japan with an overlay of street and location names in English. Is there someway to integrate it into GMDL?

Thanks in advance.

sKilled, not diddlefinger.com since their overlay is just labels created on the fly (not, transparent, tiles). To find out if a map can be used, in Firefox, select Tools > Page Info > Media and see if you can see the tiles that you want to use in the list (for example http://www.onnyturf.com/subway/ can be used).
