DIY: Simple PSP-GPS hookup

deniska, can you make me some cables?
I'll pay ya.. Only request is that they are black...
Give me a price, I tried to PM you but it wont let me..

If you wan't, I'll sell you mine (see the picture in the beginning of the thread) for 40 buck + whatever shipping will cost...
I was thinking of making a little softer and shorter new cable for myself...
Sorry, but it really makes no sence for me to bother with this for less money.

If interested, find a way to PM me @ this forum OR ps2dev one (same id).. I'll give you the payment instructions, etc...

To all others: I am not really interested in making those cables for money or anything else.. I do have a steady income.. and I am doing it for fun only.. :-)

i sent you a Pm on the ps2dev forum...

mhh.. what if the gps uses another voltage? ;D

u cant use the same resistor then.. :P hehe

a question... how do you DL maps if you have a 1.5
its does not have a browser.
and if you devhook it then you cant run map this...

nevermind.. I'm a retard...

Ok, I've installed all the necessary cygwin programs and plugins, but it will not download the maps. Cygwin will run the script and make all the map folders without any visible errors, but they're all empty besides a txt file in the main directory. Is there something I am doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated.

you can always just do wifi update from mapthis menu its very easy to do not complex things to install, you just good beable to wait a while for it to download

when it does finish i find it the easyest way, i recently downloaded 64 by 64 size map with a base zoom of like 0 so that gives me 4 zoom levels but it took about 1hour and a half

Hey Deniska,

I got my GPSlim236 yesterday and made a cable in about an hour.

Only problem is I can't get it to work with your Map This! program.

I tried your old green screen GPS viewer program and that works fine.
I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.

I edited the config file to turn off the fake NMEA info.
But the display just says bad data.
I noticed the checksum value thingie for beta testers. Do I need a certain value or something?

Otherwise, great program. Certainly the best homebrew I have ever seen.
Any help appreciated.
