How do you get it ??
Please explain a little bit the proccess
I finally did a Project with new map , 4 levels, andgetting an img container included DEM file inside it, installed the Project on BaseCamp...but I coud not get heigths when I draw a new route on the map.
Kind regards
The converter is updated.
More user-friendly error output is added.
Also, in Windows 7 and newer the script could not be correctly started from either Run dialog, or from command line, when the current folder was different from the converter's one.
To show the img right on the Monterra, I have set with "IMGTOOL" the "Priority" = 25 and "Transparency" = yes.
Maybe I am doing something wrong, but my IMG only shows at zoom levels of 800m and 500m on my eTrex 30. This is a 1:25k map, so I want it to show at closer zoom levels (300, 200, 120 etc). Converted from a JNX made with Global Mapper 15.
Thanks. I was using JNXSCALE to do this. This was the results:
JNX Scale Value: 14, JNX2IMG prompts about not displaying under 200m. Displays between: 5m and 200m
JNX Scale Value: 783, Displays between: 5m and 200m
JNX Scale Value: 839, Displays between: 5m and 200m
JNX Scale Value: 965, Displays at 300m only
JNX Scale Value: 1447, Displays at 300m only
I now tried JNXCustomizer, but the results are the same. I set it to 500m, but on the device, it shows form 5m to 200m, then goes to the "Worldwide DEM Basemap,NR :-(
I have all other maps disabled, but it looks like it needs this Basemap to display anything. With the basemap disabled, no maps display.
For device with JNX support the pure JNX format is more convenient. But some device especially for marine mode do not support JNX at first and do not show properly modern vector topo map with content prescribed in TYP section. For such devices this program is only salvage.
But you can make separate map for each level on that you want to see raster and then combine it with gmapTool or MapSource. Also experiments with TRE parameters is welcome too...

Thanks Giomen!
I re-read the first post here, the known limitations and issues of the current version explain what is happening perfectly:
So I guess we have to live with it until the application is updated to solve those issues.1. All the JNX levels with the scales below 864 will be mapped into a lowest zoom level in IMG, it becomes visible from 200m and closer in the devices. If there is more than one level in your JNX with small scale value, the converter will only use one of them - one with lowest scale value (i.e. the most detailed one).
2. JNX levels are displayed in more than one zoom. For example, a level with the scale value 4777 is visible from 1.2km down to 5m (if more detailed levels are not present in the device). In IMG, in contrast, the level is only shown in the specified zooms, so, to emulate a JNX way of displaying the tiles, they should be placed in all the necessary zooms explicitly.
Current version of the converter does not provide this emulation.
It is still usable for me on the 5m to 200m setting, but not ideal.
AFAIAA, I have to hack my firmware though to use JNX. I'm not sure if that is more convenient, and it is not as safe. Also, it means I can't share maps I made with friends unless they have also hacked their device. Correct me if I am wrong about this :-)For device with JNX support the pure JNX format is more convenient.
Author of JNX patch is the same as for this program! I think you know this fact and do not have doubt in complete safety of this author creation. All was tested and supported. In any case both of variant use undocumented features of Garmin SW and FW. You must decide or comply with licensing agreements or use very very useful maps!
