Thread: Garmin Topo Australia & New Zealand up to V3.01

yes ,it can be used on Garmin devices-

Hi, public4001

I downloaded "TYP for outdoors" and unzipped it with RAR. But, it was broken. Could you please check whether the problem lies in me, or that file? Thanks.

Hi, catymag!
I am like a newbie. I spent the whole day yesterday in learn about this topo. I finally managed to upload this img file into mapsource. There are some problems and questions. If you kindly guide me, I would appreciate it very much.

1. Upload procedure: Unlock --> gmaptool with cgpmapper --> install.bat run (my mapsource is 6.15.11) => "Find" menu became inactive which is problematic to me. I knew that the free cgpsmapper has a limited function. How can I resolve this problem? Where can I get a cgpsmapper with full functions?

2. topo 3 is too large for my computer with 2gb ram. Can I split this into two maps, i.e. Australia and NZ. In this case, can I allocate any FID number to each and loaded unto mapsource?

Many thanks...

Hi
it's not a free cgpsmapper problem, GMapTool originated mapsource versions dont have "search" in gps devices- to have a fully functional map you'd need an original Mapsource version- IMGs cant be splitted, you'd need again an original Mapsource version (if you want "search")

My problem is that I do not know where to install the *.IMG file so that any of the above programs can see it so that I can use Jet Mouse to unlock it and then the relevant program to send the unlocked file to the Micro SDHC card.
I hope the above is clear...basically what I want is to have Topo Aus & NZ V3 on an SD card that will work in my etrex. Can someone please help?
Thanks and regards.

Hi duckwrangler
To put the image onto and SD card just create a folder called garmin and inside that place the v3 image file (gmapsupp.img) in that, together with the gmapsupp.unl file you created from the key gen serial you made with notepad using Map ID 2262 see attached pics also find link on how to install image to MapSource
