MapThis 0.5XX development thread..

[deniska]

I figured, I'd startup a new developer's thread for MapThis! 0.5XX betas, development and contributions..

So, here is the latest version of the program (binaries and the source code):

http://deniska.dcemu.co.uk/bin/mapThis0505.rar



Featuring:

- new improved rendering routines for lines and sprites ( HW acceleration, swizzling, etc)
- rotated POI icons, compass, arrows, etc
- smooth zooming option (SMOOTHZOOM=1)
- smooth transition between 2D & 3D views
- variable scroll speed
- external prx files are no longer required for psp-290 receiver to function.
- some minor code cleanup and lots of mics changes
- partial implementation of vector map format (currently commented out, but devs can look at it)
- poi icon format changed


This is still a beta, so there are some minor rendering issues and some stuff has not been properly tested out...

Looks great, I'll check it out in the morning.

Impressive . Do you think there'll be a more stable/tested out version soon (within 1 or 2 weeks or so)? If so, then I'll wait for it before I apply my changes to the newest version.

Спасибо Дениска:thumbup:! Молодец! Мы сможем в будующим прокладывать маршрут на PSP?


Thanks Deniska:thumbup:! Well done We can lay in the future a route on PSP?

babdima: do you mean creating your own POI files from within MapThis? This has been possible with a bug/feature from my version: http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/sho...09&page=37#369

It's really hard to say - depends on my free time...

Could obsession with maps be a russian cultural trait :-)?

If you are implying route calculation - the biggest problem is the lack of reliable free vector data, especially for countries like Russia..

Hi deniska, how is the mapthis for psp slim coming along??? I have a holux 240

[Gizzmo_jr]

Working great by me. The new zoom is pretty good like how Google does it. Slightly less seamless then previous but works fine.
