I have since found that the OSM routable maps that I had loaded to my GPS60Cx earlier this year which contained the AU-Albury tile, did show Duncan Rd, Sarsfield. So something has changed since then to make it not show up in the maps I . Can you advise when the upcoming changes you refer to will take effect?
Many thanks.

Well, I don't know what caused the road to disappear if it was still visible early this year because, afaik, the boundary filtering is applied for longer then that. But the boundary filtering is still the primary suspect, which should be fixed when I release the next website update. For that to happen I need to make sure that both map servers are updated as well. I'm still working on the custom map server, the country map server is ready.

Would like to ask some help on this matter. I have tried to down load both (several and alternatively couiple of maps) but after running the .exe file, the Mapsource shows a bland map where the selected maps are located?

Would this be a corrupt download or is the Map-source the wrong version?

If the .exe ran without problems then it's something else (the .exe has built-in sanity checks). Providing a MapSource version number would be handy 😉

Normal MapSource procedure is (after installing the map):
- select the map from the dropdown menu
- zoom out to 3000 km
- look for a small yellow blob on the screen
- zoom in on the blob
- below e.g. 1km you should really see roads

If not, press ctrl+g twice to clear the MapSource cache and try again. I don't know what's wrong if it still doesn't work after this.
