Map This! v0.3 Mapviewer

Everyone remembers Deniska‘s homebrew, right? Yeah, his work’s been welcomed by a lot of you guys, and here’s an update to be welcomed even more. It’s Map This! v0.03 Mapviewer, and it gets better and better. We gave you a video before, and even a tutorial. It’s right about time (and place) to give a version upgrade.

Lots of new stuff for you guys to tinker around with:

• Multiple POI icons support – a few types of POI can now be merged in one file for simultaneous display.
• POI files: removed icon size definition (the size is read from the image itself, this should be backwards compatible with prev definition though..).
• speed up in menu responses
• NMEA buffer increased to 1024 – this may help some GPS devices map size bug fixed. Now it should support maps up to 1024×1024
• Basic trip computer in gps mode. Display of elapsed time, distance and average speed.
• Set mark. In gps mode, displays distance & direction to mark.
• Scrollable menus in map/poi selectors: ability to display/scroll through up to 100 items.
• Numerous improvements in gmdl tool by in7ane: new map/poi sources added, POI converter, custom map import, routing tool, etc.
• Ability to disable top info bar and scale for maps with custom scales and projections: just remove coords.txt

There are other new stuff, especially about the config file, in the readme, so we suggest you guys read that too. Besides, the installation is pretty tricky, but if you read our past coverages (the links above) and the readme file, you’ll be fine. He’s even got a wiki site! But, if all else fails, just comment here about your problems and everyone can help each other out.
