Hi
Please where can i find .prx files for 3.40OE-A when i want to only viewing maps? No GPS use, only viewing maps. THank you.
My suggestions were more of wishes/ideas
@Deniska - I was thinking since there are so many free/unsecure Wifi areas, it it were possible to extend the address lookup function to "call" your own personal computer (obviously listening for a request - with some security) to do queue up a search.
Send LAT/LONG of where we are at now and the address of where to go - and return back the directions as loadable.
*Wishful thinking but would be cool if packet was small enough, send request and then next free wifi see if there is a return (a successful return) of the directions.
@MIB.42 - yeah you hit it on the head - lack of info due to pretty hard task.
@Others - this was open ideas - not direction of project. I agree mapthis should be priority 1. The beels and whistles are just personal wishes.
As for crashing while watching a dvd...that could be true - but my own experience with that (Watching King of the hill driving) is it wont happen to me in this circumstance as I seen the show already. I dont think I would have a desire to watch blockbuster movie in my car. And I know heavy traffic would put a halt to that as is.
Again - food for thought - probably too much in the the "Car Theatre" realm.
But I have plugged in PSP/Mapthis to my cars stereo and it does sound cool
Got a couple of questions about some variables in the code
WARN - I see this set to "BAD" or sometimes the code checks to see if it is an "O" or "B"
*possibly OK and BAD
What is this for/represent?
The voices MESSAGE001.MP3 - MESSAGE010.MP3
Is there a description of these? I know I can hear them, but what dictates these values? GMDL?
[edit] GMDL does - there is a tick mark for sounds
[edit] sounds.txt in GMDL has the description
Reason why I ask is in the unofficial version. if I plotted a route from my home to the golf course, I would read the directions normally charted:
Turn left on Mountain Rd
Turn right on Dew Ave
Turn left of Gold Course Blvd
When I head home I read same chart but in reverse:
Turn right on Golf Course Blvd
Turn left on Dew Ave
Turn Right on Mountain Rd
so with SYSTEM###.MP3 messages
MESSAGE002 is RIGHT TURN AHEAD
MESSAGE010 is LEFT TURN AHEAD
I guess I am asking "Is there a pattern?"
[edit] sounds.txt in GMDL has the description
If this because different languages will have different spellings for TURN LEFT but on google they are tagged the same?
/|\
[edit] Reason why I ask is when I go reverse direction - I recreate the sentence (shown on bottom panel) then I "read" the sentence aloud based on keywords LEFT, RIGHT,UTURN, SOUTH,etc
I don't have the code infront of me, so if my memory serves me right:Quote:

2) The voice prompts are designed to work as follows:
- POI format gets an integer at the end of the comma delimeted string - this number specifies which mp3 promt to play when this POI/waypoint nearby. (if the number is ommited than nothing is played)
-gmdl tool takes care of assigning the numbers to each waypoint by parsing the description string and looking for certain matches (LEFT/RIGHT/MERGE,etc); the dictionary of the tool is configured via the dictionary file and can be expanded to any number of recordings.. It will work ok as long as your voice prompt set corresponds to tool's dictionary.
With this implementation the language should not be a problem as long as the user re-records the prompts and reconfigures the dictionary to understand local spelling for LEFT/RIGHT/MERGE/etc..
got it.
So using a same plotted route backwards cant be "reworded" from real sentences - I'd need to re-do the speech so it finds the opposite word/number (right for left, north for south, etc)
Just trying to eliminate two plotted routes (home to destination - destination back home)
If the numerics make it universal - then that is the better benefit. I was basing mine on the english phrases. Also reconstructing the sentences (bottom panel) coming back.
Hi there, I have just purchased a GPS add on for my PSP. I tried to download the map this software from this site. As I am fairly unfamilar with this software I need a tutorial on how to get the 4 programmes to install on my PSP. I looked at the tutorial video and I can't seem to see 2 of the software programmes i need. can somebody please help? And yes i am thick.:confused: thanks
4 programs?
I only use 2 - mapthis (on psp) and GMDL to create maps and route for psp
what 2 programs do you have now?
*Plus this question should be in a separate thread as it is not a new code type issue as this thread is defined
Deniska: your PM inbox has been full for a while, so I post my reply here instead.
Sounds good :) The changes I've made so far are:Quote:

- Always read all icons from MapThis/system/icons
- Don't show POI info box (messageplate) when second line is "MIDPOINT"
- Prevent the screen from changing to lower brightness and then to off when power is plugged in (it should be easy to make a config directive for "keep brightness=always,adapter,never")
I'll probably change _#MY_POIS back to _MY_POIS as it is now, and change the sort so it always shows up first (like the wifi map download, which is always last).
Tomorrow I'll ask my boss about this, he's more into law and IT :)Quote:

-if you get a "go-ahead" with web hosting/proxying - then we can figure out best way to do the route d/l - perhaps we can get a separate screen in mapthis.
Maybe it's just me (leaving in town with lot's of one way streets) but plotting the route backwards, 90% of the time would result in dangerous/illegal journey :-)Quote:
