Do you think that it`s good that someone copies your ideas?

It`s just a question...

Map!This is better and would be better forever!

I don't see anything bad about it...
I did not invent the idea of a map viewer just did the first, more or less functional implementation for psp.
People definitely have the right for their own versions and implementation ideas...

It's a bit sad that none of the authors (Goomap, pspmap, vmap) seems to be willing to release the source code..
So there is no simple way to tell if something was "borrowed" from mapThis or not..

I love the fact that it was Deniska that linked to this :)

Deniska is da man....
I'm a loyal user...

Looks good, but it would be better if they all join and make a super Map Viewer for us.

I can't use the GPS function though.. no GPS.

wuts up with all these rapidshare mirrors!!!

come on people, use a host that doesnt make you "click here!" then "click over there!" and "wait 45seconds" to get part 1 then wait another 3 hours to click here and there again to wait ANOTHER minute n half to "click that" for your part 2 download which never really had to be split in parts in the first place! ::takes a breath::

i'm done :) /end rant

What does this thing have new ?

Does it contain any cool features that Mapthis doesn't have ?

Otherwise i won't download it.

I love mapthis does this have night / 3d mode?

uuuh thanks, but no thanks. i like the ammount of information available about mapthis! im not goin to be using a russian made app when i have a hard enough time with my maps.

but its nice to see competition! shame about the code though.

Yeah, I agree. MapThis suits me, has all sorts of features, and oh yeah, there's information about it in English. :D

Wow, comes with a pre-loaded world map and only 400mb. I gotta download this! :D. Thanks for the news deniska.

EDIT: Nevermind, this sucks. There's no street names on the world map and I can't even get it to work with my PSP-290.

Hallo

does it work with Holux under GAME150?

This looks not bad,this will be show the hard work from other users.It`s good for many more impressions or any new possibility.I think more brains takes more efficent things.

see future...............


but i hate the users with bad grumble/bleat sentense.

respect everything.....


sorry for my bad english;)

GooMap is not an alternative to MapThis ! It's an independent project. Please respect this.

Instructions

Unrar two parts. Put files in psp/game/goomap.

Please note that ONLY Russian city Moscow in max detail level.

Here is the link to EBOOT.PBP that supports PSP-290 GPS. There is no tracking mode and the like. It just only marks you location with a cross.

In my vocabulary, "alternative" does not mean "derived" or "dependent". It just means that it can be used for the same purposes...
RESPEKT!

I like the app., as a map viewer. It is very simple and surely qualifies as an alternative to map This!, for viewing maps. Unfortunately for me, I have no idea how to go about making a map for it. The way the map zooms in and out is very smooth to the point of impressive. I also like that he was able to add greater detail to the area of importance to him. That is pretty neat. Nice job avovrepus.

As far as GooMap being real competition for map This, at this point it is clearly not. Map This is in another league as far as it's features and general functionality as a G.P.S. system. The last two updates to map This put it in a near commercial quality level in my opinion.

Anyhow, variety is always a plus in my book. Keep up the good work avovrepus.
