    Question Garmin Mobile xt - How do u add multiple maps

    Hi,

    Garmin Mobile xt version 5.

    If you have mutiple maps all unlocked but with the same name
    gmapsupp.img = Philippines
    gmapsupp.img = Malaysia and Singapore
    gmapsupp.img = NZ

    How can you get them to show.
    I have tried separate folders where they are now, but if they try to reside in the same folder - root directory they overwrite.

    How does one accomplish this?

    Thank you
    Best Regards
    Bill

    Rename the files like so

    gmapsupp.img = Philippines
    gmapsup1.img = Malaysia and Singapore
    gmapsup2.img = NZ

    Doesn't matter what map files you rename

    Up to four maps can be used on the Garmin software + world map

    Valid map file names are as follows:

    (world map) gmapbmap.img (reserved for world basemap)
    (map 1) gmapprom.img
    (map 2) gmapsupp.img
    (map 3) gmapsup2.img
    (map 4) gmapsup3.img
