As far as I know there are no V7 Aus maps for Destinator...the latest Aus map is Q1 2006...unless someone can correct me.

I have that make thx Farmsky

[fandtm666]

here is the one i pulled of my cobolt

[Jaz808]

Thanks Fandtm666, i will give it a go tonight

Interesting that the Navteq 2007.Q2.7389 at 55mb; is a lot smaller than the earlier Sensis 2006.Q1.4262 (an 80Mb rar).

Also rather odd/interesting that Destinator appear to be sourcing both Navteq and Sensis maps?

Perhaps you could post your (Sensis v.14 latest version) 'frecklesnoot' for a comparison shoot off

PS Does the Highway 1-350 or Cobalt support TTS?

[fandtm666]

could be that mine has reduced poi and is rared up

un-zipped its

size : 73.5 MB (77,156,352 bytes)

[Farmsky]

The old Sensis map is 106mb unrared.

But no matter ....... it's a much better map from my quick browse. And it's definitely Navteq (my local river is plotted correctly with 'width' in Navteq, rather than a simple straight line as in Sensis). Thanks fandtm666.

Navteq maps have better 'country' detail IMHO.

It appears to have reduced poi.

And Destinator 7.0.0.588 TTS works just peachy with it.

[StormyKnight]

Yep reduced POI...anyone know how to use the old POI with the newer map?

[Farmsky]

My guess is you'd grab the 'WCE_A.POI' from the earlier version and copy it over.

[frecklesnoot]

Here ya go

Rared it's 83.8mb and unrared it's 114mb.

[StormyKnight]

My guess is you'd grab the 'WCE_A.POI' from the earlier version and copy it over.

Nupe It complains that it is for the wrong map.

Opening WCE_A.POI in notepad indicates that the version of the map it is associated with is contained in the file, perhaps this needs to be ammended in a hex editor? Hmmm where has my hex editor gone?

MapBuildID=1345 Australia
Version 2007.Q1.5244 - map of Sensis. HLG4,MG1.4, Toll roads, D01, Signed map.

Much thanks frecklesnoot . Got it working on my Soniq QNG350 running Destinator 6.1.6. Although I have to edit:

FILE "WCE.INI"

[General]
MapSerialNumber=5244

TO
MapSerialNumber=0

Once this was done.. My Destinator should the map as;
CURRENT MAP -
Australia
Version: 2007.Q1.5244

----------------------------------------I have deleted all files due to trade infringment =8Þ -------------------


Also, I have WhereIS v14 VDO Daytona if someone wants to test Coz doesn't work for me ..

[StormyKnight]

OK I have Aus 2007 Q2.7389 Running on Dest 7, however I can't get the Text to Speech to work....From what I have worked out this map doesn't have the required MapStreetTypes.txt. Does this mean that this map can't do Text to speech?

Thanks

[Farmsky]

If it doesn't TTS, simply copy the 'GloStreetType.txt' from 'Destinator\Language\All' folder to your 'Australia' folder.

Not sure if you should rename to 'MapStreetTypes.txt'?

[Farmsky]

Hi frecklesnoot,

Thanks for Sensis 2007.Q1.5244.

That's got plenty of Pois and TTS's along just fine with D7.

I prefer the Sensis map to Navteq 2007.Q2.7389 (a few less errors in my backyard), but Navteq may be better in some country areas.
