Hi Guys,
Now with an indexed map file implementation,
AVEC V3 is fast enough to keep up with real time in car navigation.
No release of V3 just yet, but a YouTube demo video:

This is the first demo video of AVEC that isn't captured from image sequences
(ie. it was actually filmed with a camera on a tripod in the back of the car).
Please vote for AVEC in the Neoflash competition if you like what you see.
Cheers, Art.
Can't wait till you release this mate
Cool, I'm still working on improvements as late as today,
and the new version comes with a Windows map converter
tool for conversion into the much faster mpi format

I've been trying to get a company to send me the PSP-290 for free.
One of them did volunteer to send the USB extension cable, so that's a good start.
Still making good progress (this is not a final update log) :
AVEC V3 (28/08/09) :
- Fixed extra points of intrest bug introduced with V2.
- Map can now be dragged when the crosshair reaches any edge of the screen.
- Inclusion of new utility to convert maps to Indexed Polish file format.
- Faster map search using Indexed Polish file format making real time GPS navigation possible.
- Improved speed with original Polish file format, and retained backward compatibility.
- Improved detection of topographic map type so green land colour is applied faster.
- Increased map file size limit to approximately 16 Mb.
- Implemented a backbuffer so screen drawing is hidden and screen flicker is eliminated.
- Removed Neoflash competition splash screen.
- Added icons for seventeen point of interest types including summits, campsites, and parks.
- Fixed a bug that caused an incorrect label to be shown for unnamed lines.
- Introduced a configuration menu screen and configuration save option.
