I have created a map of Eastern US, dowloaded tiles individualy (to compile myself thus spare your server time). I compiled the tiles using GMapTool. I have finally loaded the map onto the GPS, and it works! Except once I get to 30k viewing distance, everything disappears... I don't know why this is and I have worked on compiling these maps and getting them on the GPS for weeks. Learning about GPS, learning about OSM, learning about MapSource, cgmapper, GmapTool, etc. Can anybody on this forum think what I might be doing wrong that the map should not work outside of 30k? Is my gpmapsupp.img file too large at 1.3GB?

I've never used GmapTool, only Mkgmap. I cant remember setting my zoomlevel to 30k on my Garmin so I don't know if it works in Mkgmap, but I wonder what's the benefit of zooming out that far...

Anyhoo, on the upside the compilation for South America works, and I can use it on my GPS: Hooray for me! Maybe I should just skip the states? 😛

South America is an infinitely little amount of data compared to North America, that might explain why that works.
