May be I should let speak my girl friend for smarter voices :)
But I don't think that street names could be mentioned in this new release. There will be only simple voices like right/left etc. Am I right?

You are right, of course.
My second part was about a further question of mine. It was hard to understand, my fault, sry...
Can't wait for the release, one question though, will this get better and faster fixes? Because I'm thinking of selling my PSP-290 because it just takes really long to fix, so I want something to fix in a minute or so.
My 290 fixes within a minute
sometimes it take 2 minutes.
But then I have the sat's fixed.
Which prx do you use?
Hi Deniska,
I was wondering if the distance to the next voice command can be adjusted? From your video, it seems like the voice commands came on when ur almost reaching the intersection, which is not such big deal if you peek back at the map often, but if one wasnt paying attention I was wondering if the voice prompt can come out a little earlier by adjustments. Thanks. hope i didnt confuse you.
Deniska, this looks really nice, can't wait to use it.
Now I just need to buy the other cable, but what the heck, it's worth it :thumbup: .
I can't wait to see the new version, thank deniska for your great work
Cant wait for this version, keep up the GREAT work.. I'll say it again, this is one of the best homebrews out there... BY FAR !
Supports holux ? :)
When do you plan to release the new version?
I just ordered my new cable... Hope it don't take too long...
sweeeet !
I have a psp version 3.40 oe-a...
I want to get the psp-290 from hong-kong,
but I need to know if the gps AND Mapthis 0.5 will work on my psp !
so, does the psp-290 and mapthis 0.5 with voice will or will not wor on my psp version 3.40 OE-A ???? ( can play iso games..)
sergemontreal:
bonjour (je regardais TVA tiens, c'est rigolo de voir un francophone),
Avec la version précédente .499, pas de soucis sur mon 3.40 OE-A avec le gps psp-290.
Il y a d'autres utilisateurs qui fréquentent ici et pour qui cela marche impecable Ã* Hong Kong, donc tu ne devrais pas avoir de soucis.
And if you don't speak french (heck, that would be a misleading nickname and location info), then know that yes, mapThis + psp-290 are known to work on 3.40 OE-A and it can fix satellites in hong kong
non non...je suis de montreal et mon nom est serge...dis-moi est-ce que tu habite montreal ?
peut-etre que tu pourais faire l' installation des map pour moi...
so, thanks BarfHappy for the quick response !
cant wait to see the new 0.5 version out !
Hi Densika,
Iam planning to buy a psp with the firmware downgrade.:)
I order a gps module from HK. But i need the European software sofar, where can i get it. Later i put version 0.5 with voice on it. But whats the dload link?
Also what do i need more?
[email protected]
Ehehe, non je n'habite pas Montreal mais j'aime bien le Quebec et mon epouse y a de la famille (et j'aime bien regarder la tv de la bas).
Sinon pour le GPS, si tu as des soucis, je t'aiderais.
And as said, all you really need is the GMDL (google map download) tool, it will transform the maps from google maps into maps usable by MapThis.
The wikibook is very complete and has links for what you ll need:
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Map_This
The direct tutorial for GMDL: http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=60230
i don't think you will need much more help than this :)
ok cool !
thanks barfhappy!
I can wait to download mapthis 0.5!
does anyone know when the date ?:(
ok...got the MAPTHIS 0.497 working on my psp.
i do have a few questions :
1 : I need to know how to do a `HOW TO GET ` kind of how to get to point a to point b...with the voice TURN LEFT and all that...
2 : the find location is not working for me...
it ask me the name of the street, city and a 5 digits postal codes...
I live in montreal, and the postal code looks like this ` H8P 3G6 `
3: instead of google map or yahoo...is it possible to take the map of `Microsoft Streets & Trips `
because the search engine is very easy to use...
( only type the postal code, and it will find the place
and does someone know when MAPTHIS 0.5 will be out ???
thanks a lot

Greetings bramy
deniska, whats the status with mapthis! 0.5 ? i have been stuck with the "un-official mapthis!" for too long. cant wait to replace it with the official.
Hey, I was having trouble too with the previous versions, so try this file I'm using that someone posted. The file is for PSP 3.40 oe & the SONY psp-290 GPS:
http://rapidshare.com/files/41482389...nd_psp-290.rar
alright so apparently, I have been a member of this website since 2005 and I didn't even know about it until I looked back for the map this .5.
after reading countless website about how to install mapthis! and I was able to get it to work :) thanks for the Dude who posted the .prx files for the 3.40oe on this website on some forum. without I think I would still be stuck right now. Deniska thanks for the great program. right now I am in Hiroshima japan and I am about to undertake a masive amount of traveling around japan starting next week-end for 10. I bought the GPS-290 reciever yesterday after I saw a video on youtube. great stuff yo I can't wait to get my hands on the .5 version since I am runing the .4999_beta
Couple of questions though
1) I downloaded the map of Hiroshima (84mb) and I was riding the train by the atomic bomb when I got a negative Altitude?? maybe I was really underwater for a short time.
2)it takes a while for the GPS to lock on ( usual I guess) but I have to be stand at the same place for like 10 minutes ortherwise I will never get a lock on.ex I had to stand in front of a store for like 10 minute before the blue arrow showed up. Gps detected like 6 satelite but it still took me like 10 minutes. is this normal???
3) let's say I live in chicago (I have like a 800mb of the whole city map) and let's say I want to go st. Louis. ( for which I also have the map of the whole city).
4) oh yeah, about the zoom for the map; I have just download a huge map of hiroshima. on the google map I can zoom until I see the actual shape of the houses around. but on my PSP I can only see up to the smallest street but not the shape of the house. do you know guys know how can I make so that I get the whole thing... don't really worry about space. I just upgrade from 2gb to 4gb memory. one for my days use and one for GPS.
so I have the 2 maps, how do I download the HIghway 55?? I mean how do I connect the 2 maps. don't tell me that I am going to have to download a (1.6gb) map of the 2 city as once and just unselect the area that I don't need along the high way?????
I would like to know how this is done.
thanks
sorry for the long message
wouldnt that simply mean you are below sea level?
hahah no not really I don't think so. but anyway new question. is it just me or the PSP-290 really suck at reception. I mean it take forever to lock-in and on top of that it loses connect when I walk like right next to a building..?
Is there a way to make the reception better??? and also make the lock in faster.???
Edit: oh yeah how many satelite do you need to be connected on in order to get a lock on??? someimtes I have like 2 satelite and nothing happen.....??

What does it mean? In Hiroshima?
Buddy, are you alive?:confused:
hello deniska,
first of all thanks and congrats for all the great things you have given to us. I have question, am I doing something wrong if it takes at least three days to download a map thats 400mb in size?? also you have probobly had this question a million times but when are you realeasing map this v0.5? and where would be the best place to download it from?
I hope you find the time to reply to me.
thankyou.
hahah yes I am alive, I should be back in the states in about 15 days or so... was doing some research at Hiroshima Institue of Technology.
Well anyway, today I have found out that lowering the CPU speed to 111 increase the reception by lot... by a lot I am like superbebly awesomelly a lot. before I was complain about get little or no connection. I was getting one bar and connecting to at most 3 satellite. After reading Deniska's post about how to improve the reception all thos stuff about the CPU creating nose. I tested it on my way to school. and it worked. I got like 4 bars and even 5. when I rided by the atomic bomb dome.. I still had reception. the only time I lost reception was when the train stopped at a station that a brigde over it.. ( bridge made of brick).
so yeah now the only thing left is to have mapthis! 0.5 before I come back to the states. haha. thanks for the great work man.
Where is my Mapthis 0.5~~ i have waited for over 1month,55555555
Isn't coming until Deniska has time to make new compatibility with new receivers.
Hmm i don't like that but we'll have to live with it.
Sorry folks, I got carried away with another project..
It's a port of a game.. I'd like to enter it in to Neo Summer Compo.. It's a good tradition. Plus sometimes it's good to take a brake from working on a same thing...
Meanwhile I do make small compatibility changes to MapThis, so please hold on a bit longer...
as I am almost done with the game port...
Its not .50 but it may let Deniska get a breather

remember - he is working for free on this - he must do something else to pay this internet bill
heck - he is from Krypton - give him a break :rofl:
Cheers yall

Hi, everybody. I appreciate every minute of your time and effort that you donate to the PSP and map this. Finally My psp-290 works on my Map this 0.499 with V3.03oe-c. Locked satellites in 3-5 min. but I dont know how to lower the cpu speed to 111 for increasing the reception. Of course I can change the cpu speed to 222 under map this menu. Thanks.
Take your time, deniska. we really appreciate what you have done.
