Hello,
1 In the Tools directory, do you have a bld_gmap32 directory and a gmt directory?
2. Have you copied TestLicence.mpl into the directory bld_gmap32

Damn, I missed that. Thanks!
I got the files copied over but still some errors
d:\jnx2img>jnx2img.cmd test-1994.jnx test-1994.img

there us no .log file in the temp dir but there are over 100 jpegs and an mtx file with same named prefix as .log file
I also received a popup error from bld_gmap32: FreeimagePlus.dll cannot be found
anyway, no img file was created...workjing on it
[edit]: I got it working by putting the entire contents of MPC's bld_gmap32 into jnx2img's
Thanks for your help
Hello hwdean,
It was written on page 1
When I first started, I made the same mistake and it was Alex who corrected me.Quote:
After you unpack the archive, there will be Tools folder with two subfolders.
Please copy the contents of MPC\Tools\bld_gmap32 folder into extracted Tools\bld_gmap32 folder, and also copy you MPC license file into the same folder with License.mpl name.
Next, copy gmt.exe file from GmapTool\gmt.
Make sure the script will have permissions to create and delete subfolders in the folder it is extracted to.
That's it for the initial setup.

I have converted some separate 1-25k and 1-50k topo maps of the same areas from JNX to IMG format using Alex's method.
In GMapTool, I changed the draw priority of the 1-25k maps to 31 and the 1-50k maps to 25 with the intention that on zooming-in the map would change from 1-25k to 1-50k at 200m. In my GPS device, each map is visible if selected individually, however if both the 1-50k and 1-25k maps are enabled at the same time, the 1-50k is the only map that displays on zooming-in.
Any ideas on how to resolve this?
Hello
To start with, with GmapTool I would try to attach (Join) the 1/25000 and 1/50000 filesQuote:

Thanks Allin
I will give this a try. I will also try making a two level JNX and converting this to an IMG. BTW they are both raster maps.

Hello Allin
I have been doing further tests over the past couple of days. The good news is that with MAPC2MAPC I can make a two-level JPX with the 1-25k and 1-50k layers of raster maps, set the zoom levels in JNX Customizer and convert this JPX to an IMG. This IMG can be viewed in BC and on my device, and changes between the 1-25k and 1-50k mapping according to the zoom level as expected.
The bad news is that if I make a separate JPX for each, choosing the same zoom levels as before and convert to two IMGs before joining them in GMapTool to a single IMG, no matter what settings I adjust, only the 1-50 layer is ever visible in BC or the device when fully zoomed-in. I have tried various zoom/scale levels in creating the JNXs and in GMT, changed the draw priorities, tried a few different TRE parameters (Map Series IDs). I must be missing something important or maybe I am bumping up against a limitation of Alex's method as mentioned in post 1?
Have you been able to able to do this conversion with two separate raster JNXs?

Hello Eyelet99
Using MAPC2MAPC ==> JNX Customizer ==> Jnx2Img ==> GmapTool.Quote:

Alas no I have exactly the same problem as you.
I was counting on you to find a solution.

Hi Allin
Alex was an active contributor to a number of Russian forums in parallel to his contribution here and these are worth a read. I found an interesting tutorial here:
Spoiler: external link
and will be giving this method a try.
Using the above I seem to get a map on my monterra that isnt the full size I selected in sas planet, its much smaller around 3mb seems to be the limit, is this due to the test licence.mpl?
thanks
