How do I compile my own mapThis?

[FreewareFire]

That's simply to increase development time - if more people work on it, more features maybe realised... *yeeeah*

True...if they had more brilliant people on that team. Do what I do....take the source and work on it and try to do something YOU like. I totally messed up the original source file (and lost features) when trying to add my own stuff. I added speech and ability to read maps backwards...I lost the MARKER MODE and MAP UP if there is no route loaded.
I added sonar pings to next MIDPOINT and total distance (miles to feet as you get closer based on road traveled - not the white line)...this causes a hang if I immediately start Mapthis at the destination point.


I added "watching movies" with directional overlays (no map) for portable entertainment.
..the ability to read ads of a store (like best buy) when I am parked in the parking lot for
..if in front of a convienece store that sells lottery tickets, it calculates that last 52 weeks average of of common winning numbers to choose.

..ok the last three I made up

small question...

what type of programming-language is this about?

C programming on the PSP

Does anyone have any tips for getting the psptoolchain to download and install itself properly I got some automake errors in cygwin which I've now fixed and it now starts to download all the relevant files in to a temp directory but after a few minutes (and as I understand the toolchain should take a long time to set up) it just says there's an error and leaves the downloaded files in the temp directory, any help at all is greatly appreciated

btw, I'm sure that I've set up cygwin up properly so I don't think its the way that I've configured it that's the problem but I can't be sure

Edit:

this is the specific error I get

you probably did not install some required cygwin tool... try to install as many options as your disk allows and re-run the toolchain script...

does anyone know a free file hoster that allows files bigger than 300MB??

i compressed my cygwin folder with all libs etc. installed - now i want to upload it for free anywhere - but i don't want to register. So if anyone knows a free file hoster service, let me know about, than i'll upload my folder - tested with latest source of MapThis - works well !

Greets FreewareFire (file is ~350MB)

I have the same, but a 52.5MB zip version. If I'm allowed to put it online (not exactly sure), then I can put it on my webserver.

The only thing I had to change before compiling MapThis worked, was removing "BUILD_PRX=1" from the Makefile.

megaupload: http://www.megaupload.com/ are ok for large file handling but you do have to register for a free account, I don't think I've come across anywhere that you wouldn't have to register for a free account before you uploaded a large file

Hi!

Thx for reply - i've a solution for - i'm currently uploading the file - but takes a while... more details following after upload

@Nieko - why not? If you're zip doesn't contain copyright material - like prx files or anything else, there's no problem with - cygwin is for free, psptoochain and sdk also. The libs 2. So there's no problem with. But don't include any other files! no prx or other copyright material. - how did you get the file so small - i've used WinRar and full compression... ~ 350MB

BUILD_PRX=1 have truely to be out comment! else it won't compile!

change in makefile to:
