You should be able to chose any zoom range so you can deside how much detail and coverage you want to fit on your MS...Quote:

well i tryed zooming out just enough to fit my town and my moms town, witch is from pensacola fl to panama city fl. and it says this: "Area selected with minimum zoom is too big (512 where 256 max)"
A few changes:
- top left centered screen (with scroll bars) as requested
- pop up 1x and 2x previews
- downloading all 6 sources at once
Note:
- if you get the zoom not available message, could be a timeout, try again (or maybe the zoom level really is not available, then set a higher min zoom in Advanced)
- the maximum map size is 256^2 so 2^(zoom - min zoom) needs to be less than or equal to 256 (I guess this is an issue with the PSP file system, but deniska is a better person to ask)

Thanks for the feedback.
Actually, PSP/MapThis should be able to handle 512x maps, although I only tested 256x ones...Quote:

1024x, on the other hand, would present a problem because of the naming convention that I use..
Not sure if anyone would actually attempt to create one, since it's ptobably gonna take ~4GB on PSP's MS...
Good stuff, man...Quote:

UPDATE: Nevermind, missed the scroll bars
I was thinking of automatically creating sets of maps (1-4, 1-16, etc) when the area was too large, but it's true about the resulting size. A better option would be to selectively download different areas down to different levels of detail (since MapThis! handles missing tiles and directories), this way you can have a path of high resolution - this will require a bit of a rewrite, and should probably be incorporated with getdirections.sh functionality (is anyone else looking at it? if not I'll have a go over the weekend once I've finished with the gps cable soldering).
