OK got igo 8 loaded on a pna for a mate how do you add the speed camera files and other poi to it i have downloaded some they are in txt format not quite sure how to add them give me a tomtom much easier
IF IT DONT WORK USE A BIGGER HAMMER
Look Here -> |
Download Link for iGO8 Austalia POI & Speedcams, if you need them.
thanks for those
Does iGO8 work in a similar fashion to iGO6 with speedcams ? I recall in iGO6 you could drop a properly formatted CSV into a folder and upon startup it'd convert and create a db for you.
Will have to try it later in the week... Sound interesting... I use my system alot when off Road and beach fishing... Save my spots as fav or POI so I can get to them of a Night. It looks like iGO8 has a little feature that allows you to keep you on the road or will allow you to be off road. TomTom was the only other that I could get that would allow me to do what I need to.. If further testing (Maps and accuracy is of concern) proves ok, then I may yet be a full convert.
Thanks for that
Went to try with the NEW iGO8 install.
System seems to be a little quicker... But no more Speed cam, red light warnings etc etc
Have tried replacing the speedcam.spdb and speedcamupdate.spud as well a Trafix controll txt file... Nothing happens or appears to get updated... Does not see or detect these important issues...
Any suggestions ?
boy is this easier to load than TomTom...does anyone have a link to European maps? and possibly extra voices?
found a good link
found
anyone know what .dem files are for iGo?
Australia.dem
A Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is a representation of the terrain using point elevations. Straight from Google "australia.dem"
Shows the basic elevations and contours you see on the map
cheers, so this would it go into the \SD Card\iGO8\CONTENT\DEM..file?
Shure does
Gooday GRW..I have a small problem ..In follow up to the past couple of posts . I cant find any POI in my gps Unit .

Two sets of poi both ,Australia poi and Australia productB poi in ,Contents.Poi
Have you activated them?
Manage>Poi>edit.select range you will then see a tick.
You can also add ,for instance schools ,in user data poi using your card reader. Speed and other cameras are activated Settings>Warnings and check appropriate boxes. Cheers
Thanks Mate .I,ll give it a go tomorrow and let you know ..Somehow I think I have the wrong file in there .
I,m sure the file in POI its Not a "DEM " file ..too lazy to go and check at the mo ...
Just in case it is ..Would you know the link for the latest Aus POI DEM file ??
I,m all Putered Out ..
