Let me know if you can process all of them and generate the county limits lookup file. In the meantime could you give me a sample with a few county files separately and then them packaged together (running stuff under Cygwin is not my strong point).

Processing seems to take a lot of time (~4 hours for 1 state) so I may need some help.. or it's gonna take some time to complete...

For now, I dumped a few processed county files here:
http://glockdancers.com/mapthis/

The boundry lookup file will look something like following:

36001,-74263978+42408347,-73680062+42819977
36003,-78309280+41998386,-77724801+42521658
36005,-73932213+40797995,-73781458+40912978
36007,-76129742+41997837,-75362599+42415484
36009,-79061271+41999239,-78308161+42533515
36011,-76736701+42618903,-76265611+43413902
36013,-79762144+41998292,-79059231+42569354
36015,-76965986+42000688,-76537438+42294387
36017,-75886765+42194990,-75296533+42744192
36019,-74022779+44438450,-73352603+45009862
36021,-73908313+41980556,-73362064+42507634

Format: [county code], [minlon+minlat],[maxlon+maxlat]
You'll have to divide values by 1,000,000 to get the correct coordinate values...

So, your application would go through the lookup file, pick and download the counties that match your map's coordinates, unzip the zipcodes in to some directory and then compress them back with algorithm, given in compr.c program, generating geodata.dat file...

NOTE:
In theory, 2 or more counties can share area with same zipcode(s), ie you may get the same zipcode filename in 2 different county zipfiles. In this case you'll have to merge the zipcode files with a same name and sort the data inside of them alphabetically by street name.

Let me know if you have any questions abou it..

Awesome! Just got the mapview working on 3.03 OE-A

There's a couple tricks to it:

Copy the 1.5 files into a created folder named 'GAME150'

Next, in the MAPS folder, once you've created your map with In7sanes map creator, create a folder '_MAP (whatever you named it)' & copy over ONLY the 16x, 8x, etc files.

That's it!

Can't wait for the PSP GPS function to work!

Thanks everyone!

Alle kann ich Ihnen erklären, im Augenblick, daß ich den Diagrammprojektor habe auf, oe-a 3.03 zu arbeiten, ich warte bin, daß die Jungen darstellen aus, wie man es erhält, um den echten Sony PSP GPS verbunden zuSEIN.

All I can tell you right now is that I have the map viewer working on 3.03 oe-a, I am waiting for the boys to figure out how to get it to communicate with the Genuine Sony PSP GPS.

Edit the file. Change line 16 from:

to

find ./temp -name '*.ZIP'| { while read zip; do

I'm trying the revised script now.

The 'mapthis' files go to the GAME302 folder & the 'usbgps.prx & usbacc.prx' go under which folder? GAME271?

I don't think MapThis goes under GAME302, unless I missed something.

The new USB GPS viewer goes under GAME302. The usbgps.prx and usbacc.prx go under "ms0:/camprx/".
