MAP THIS! version 0.461S (beta) with support for PSP-290 GPS accessory

[deniska]

@deniska : upgraded to 0.497 and the GUI looks uber cool. I just wanted to ask one thing that how do I change the local time. I require +5:30, so what changes should i make ?

You can update TIMEZONE variable in config.txt
(TIMEZONE=5)
but you still be 30 minutes off...
Sorry I forgot that some countries (like India) shift their time in fractions of the hour..
I'll try to correct it in future versions..

And i can not ge tthe green proggy to work it says to connect gps device even though i have it connected and the orange light is on.

Hi. I´m from germany and I´ve got a problem with Map This and the psp290. I hope someone could help me...

Description:
-I´ve got fw oe 3.03c

-Psp290-test shows: first points are ok
/ fixed on 00 satelites
/Ini.Location:00
/Gps State 3 Location: 0

I´ve tested MapThis0461Sbeta and the 047 versions, with different .prx-files. The edit maps I use gm0.4.13b. That´s all no problem, the maps are working, but it seems that it doesn´t find a signal. Nothing happens...

Hi guys.

I spent the last 3 hours mucking about and finally got mapthis! working. Now the only problem I have is the GPS state: OFF problem Cant figure out how to get this working

TA-082 motherboard
Bought with 2.81FW, flashed to 3.10OE firmware
GPS-290.
Tried with 2.71 usb / 3.03 gps PRXs, and just 3.03 PRXs

Mapthis works like a charm, with a map of my city here in Japan. The GPS is just in the off state. How do I get it on?

I have searched endless pages but theres no actual answer. How can I fix this? Help apreciated!

from a NZer in Japan.

I would like to know if map this gives turn by turn directions when going from Point A to Point B? I have it running on my PSP, but I only get a straight line from Point A to Point B. Thanks for your help.

i looked around and found this...

Creating point to point routes with GMDL
1.Start gmdl
2. Open directions
3. Activate local.live, google or yahoo
4. Choose appropriate site i.e de.maps.google.de for Germany
(map24 is disabled at the moment)
5. Enter Starting point:
PLZ(Zipcode) Strasse(street)
e.g. 76726 An Deroy 22
6. Enter Ending point
PLZ(Zipcode) Strasse(street)
e.g. 76726 reduitstrasse1
7. Click on „Route Berechnen“ (calculate route)
you may skip this step but then you won`t see the calculated route in gmdl
8. Once route has been calculated click Button „Get Values“
9. Activate the „create intermittant“ function and leave the default value, otherwise you will only have the most important waypoints in your map and it won’t look like an outlined route from start to end.
9. Click Button List
10. enter a name for the route
makesure it starts with _ i.e. _myfirstroute
11. click Button „Save POI“
12. copy generated file to the mapfolder you are using
You will find the generated file in the same folder as the „Google Maps Download.exe

i had your same problems, and i resolved it by using 3.03 prxs instead of 2.71
copy 3.03's usbacc.prx and usbgps.prx and try again

îf GPS state is OFF, try to enable it with pressing the
[ ] Button on your PSP.
If you use the Analogstick, ist would be disabled.
So press the Square Button and then look into GPS Info Screen

Hi

Thanks for the reply.

I press the square button and mapthis says 'GPS mode ON'

But when I go to the info screen, its still says 'GPS State Off'

Thank you for fast help, but I´ve found the problem.
It seems to need an 100% free look to the air and a time to get run...

Ok a Gpslim236 looks nice, but does it cost 160 euro's (200 US dollars ?)

Or does anybody have a cheaper shop that ships to whole Europe ?
