MapThis! 0.5 (1 Year Anniversary Edition)

Anyone know a site to get more GPS sounds?

I'm mainly after "Keep Straight".

You can use either:
www.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php
or
http://www.naturalvoices.att.com/demos/
to create a wav file.
then convert it to mp3 @128kbps 44hz with any free wav editor (some are available online)

what does PSP290 SAT.AQUISITION do?

what does the value 0,1,2 exactly mean?

Satellite aquisition algorithm for psp-290
0 - cold start
1 - warm start
2 - hot start

use the warm start if you had the fix before and did not move far from previous fix location.

Did you create the directions with the latest version of gmdl? (you may need to re-download it...)
the previous version had the voice prompts sampled in 56kbps.. Mapthis needs 128 kbps samples...
So make sure you link to samples in system/sounds directory..

I did what you said. I re did my POI's and the sounds still play to fast. Do i have to re-DL the whole map?

Awesome work deniska!

So i got your message about "warm start"

what about "hot start" and "cold start"

"hot start" seems to work best for me so far

Hi deniska,

Great work as always! Congratulations on your job!

Question: What mean all the options of Enable DMS Display?

Requests / Bugs

1 - The time display is in GMT time, never the time of XMB, or other
1.1. Think you could re-enable the timezone OPTION on config.

2- There are no Numbers in the edit of configuration file (under psp) and delete only delete at place, no delete back.

3- The fixation of the GPS is great, but now a little bit jumpy on the drive, and sometimes a little bit of track (10-25mt).

My config is as follow: (GPS-290)

defvayne, Try replacing the old sounds with the new sounds from Mapthis 0.5 in your map folder.

Well that fixed it for me anyway.

And thanks for the links Deniska, I'll check it out now.

Ninja i did that and it does the same thing. Another thing i noticed is that the map does not scroll smooth like it used to. But i will try to re-install the app to the PSP.

i love this app...thank you Deniska..1 question though..I've been using mapthis for a while now, and I want to know if theres a way to input an address so that it will give you a route to follow saying turn right here, turn left here, you have arrived at your destination etc. Is there a way to put in an address or no? and aslo how do u make it so that it shows you where airports, gas stations, restaurants and things like that are...I used in7ane's map downlader thing to get my map and I checked the geodata thing but in the end its just the map. Help please oh and keep up the good work..I love it
