I'm using a 3.52 M33-4 PSP with MapThis! 0497. I made several types of POI using the guides on the forum and placed them in the my map folder like it says. The names of the POI show up in the POI lookup but when I select any to load, MapThis! crashes. Any ideas? I'm using a Sony GPS-290 with my PSP.

Would you mind telling me where these guides are? or you just collected "knowledge" from different posts.
Would mind explain making POIs to me, because I just don't get it.

Start up GMDL, click the POI tab. Zoom into the area you want, click get numbers on the right. In the search for: box type a POI category like FOOD. Select Google beside the List button, then click the List button and wait until its done searching. The box on the bottom right should have some entrys. For the icon I would find the Food icon and select it. Then beside that title it _FOOD. Then click the Save POI (Start with _) button. Now it should have created your _FOOD POI file. Place that into Maps folder in the folder of the map its for. Just repeat the steps for all categories you want.
