My Hero can't find the maps

Hello, first of all. AMAZING app faster than google maps.

I wanted to use the function to use the GPS offline (no downloading maps)
Ive read a lots of manuals and tried the following the . But the phone won't recognise the files. Ive tried to change the directory several times but no goal.

Desktops software used:
Getting maps with Trek buddy Atlas java app
converting with official OruxMapsDesktop
Settings:

Phone:
HTC hero FW 1.5
Latest OruxMaps installed (2009-10-10)
curret maps Directory /SDcard/maps/


Update, I manage to make the phone find the maps. BUT the pictures are all in wrong oder or it says could't open maps. First mentions symptoms it opens a small thumbnail and when I zoom in it changes thumbnail, and the other mention goes for the map I wanted to use.

After I used the OruxMapsDesktop app I get a folder with this setup:

sweden-map/sweden-13/set/all the .jpg images
sweden-map/sweden-13/sweden.otrk2.xml
sweden-map/sweden-02/set/one .jpg image
sweden-map/sweden-02/sweden.otrk2.xml
sweden-map/sweden-01/sweden.otrk2.xml
sweden-map/sweden-01/set/one .jpg image
sweden-map/sweden.otrk2.xml

and I am suppose too place the folder sweden-map inside SDcard/maps/ on the phone, right?

However, I noticed a small diffrence from the example you can find on your site in downloads, the Madrid Maps example.
The .xml file you get there is much larger and contains more info about the map setup, like all the images positions and such. But in the .xml file generated from OruxMapsDesktop I dosen't get any info like the map example.

Code:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <OruxTracker xmlns:orux="http://oruxtracker.com/app/res/calibration" versionCode="2.1">
- <MapCalibration layers="false" layerLevel="2">
- <MapName>
- <![CDATA[ Layer name-13
  ]]>
  </MapName>
  <MapChunks xMax="10" yMax="6" datum="WGS84" projection="Mercator" img_height="512" img_width="512" file_name="Layer name-13" />
  <MapDimensions height="3071" width="4863" />
  <MapBounds minLat="59.175928" maxLat="59.445075" minLon="17.53418" maxLon="18.369141" />
- <CalibrationPoints>
  <CalibrationPoint corner="TL" lon="17.53418" lat="59.445075" />
  <CalibrationPoint corner="BR" lon="18.369141" lat="59.175928" />
  <CalibrationPoint corner="TR" lon="18.369141" lat="59.445075" />
  <CalibrationPoint corner="BL" lon="17.53418" lat="59.175928" />
  </CalibrationPoints>
  </MapCalibration>
  </OruxTracker>

Thanks in advance for the help, and once again AWSOME APP!

Hi, Alle090

I can not do any test, because I am out of my home until Monday night.

Madrid map uses an older calibration map system, do not worry about it. Your calibration files are right.

I am not sure, but I have not tested layered maps with not contiguous levels (1,2,13,14,15,16). Perhaps there is a bug there.
Try first deleting folders sweden-01 and sweden-02, and let only contiguous levels (13,14,15,...).

Sorry for these problems.

Hmmmmmmm

I can confirm that there is a problem with non contiguous layered maps downloaded with Tb atlas creator.

You must download contiguous levels, for example 7,8,9,10,11;

Not correct 1,2,12,16,17

I will find a solution soon.

Sorry,

Alle090,

You can reuse the maps downloaded with tb atlas creator.

Delete non contiguous layers (1,2) and change in each otrk2.xml file:

sweden-map/sweden-13/sweden.otrk2.xml
<MapCalibration layers="false" layerLevel="0">

sweden-map/sweden-14/sweden.otrk2.xml
<MapCalibration layers="false" layerLevel="1">

sweden-map/sweden-15/sweden.otrk2.xml
<MapCalibration layers="false" layerLevel="2">

.....

And:
sweden-map/sweden.otrk2.xml-->LET IT, DO NOT CHANGE ANY.

Wow, Really wow. Fast support!

I removed all downloaded maps and re-downloaded maps 10-16 in order and converted. I works perfectly now, Really amazing. You deserve a HUGE medal for making this software!
Ive actually got an offline portable GPS!


Really thanks for the fast support and help!
