Garmin Sweden Friluftskartan Pro V2 - Mellersta och Södra Norrland IMG+ Mapsource

I don't have my installation in front of me and I am not allowed to post links so...

Use Garmins installer to install the map. The map is now in GMAP-format at
%allusersprofile%\Application Data\GARMIN\Maps
Delete all ".dem"-files in the underlying folders. (search for ".dem" in subfolders)

Run "MapReverseConverter" and then uninstall the map. You will now have a copy of the locked map in IMG-format usable in Mapsource 6.13.7.

Run "All.bat" from "Garmin Unlocker" and the map will be unlocked.

Finally a friend has come to the rescue and provided us with instructions to convert this IMG file Mapsource;

"Split img with Gmaptool, it will create install files and reg files.
Unlock with JetMouse, mapID=2059."

I found that moving the newly created folder with these maps to C/ProgramData/GARMIN/Maps gives the best result when you install. Once running in Mapsource I unlocked it and the maps worked. ;-)

Hi,

I you want to have fully functional MapSource version and to use it with older 6.15.7 program version, only correct way is as suggested by Ballebar:

1. Install MapSource version from post #5 (catymag)
2. Reverse convert with [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
3. Uninstall original MapSource map version (Control panel)
4. Uninstall only MapSource program (this new version)
5. Install MapSource 6.15.7 from this post:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
6. Optionally overwrite MapSource.exe with [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Now you could use fully functional map with MapSource 6.15.7, and have no further problems

Hello,
I downloaded the Friluftskartan Pro v2 Mellersta & Södra Norrland IMG and split the img file for mapsource using gmaptool -S. I copied the directory with the split map files to my C:\Garmin directory.
Then I used Kanopus' code and put it in the install.bat for registering for win7 x64. When I run mapsource, I can choose the new map in the scroll down menu in the upper left corner. The software even draws the map on screen.
But when I move the mouse cursor over the map, mapsource crashes to desktop. I can zoom with the + and - buttons and also move around in the map with the arrow keys, but as soon as the mouse cursor touches the map itself, bang - CTD with an error msg. I'm using mapsource ver 6.13.7. I also have the Topo Adventure Norway installed and that map works flawlessly.

Could someone help me out please? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance
taikonaut

PS. And oh thanks to the original uploader for this great stuff!
