I did not change any TYP file but after I send the map to my Garmin device via Mapsource it seems to work fine, anyway Also searching streets is no problem. So I wonder, whether I missed out something...?? I also would love to know what roadguide.ph.124.part2.rar is for. Any advise is highly appreciated.

If you change the TYP you will get wider road views in the "View Map" section of your device.

When the part2 rar file of roadguide.ph.124 is needed when you extract the part1 file. Actually, you could try extracting either of the two files and you will get the same result. Without the part1 or part2, Winrar will prompt you of the archive being corrupted or incomplete.

Hope that helps

I've heard that the demo unit (I don't know what exact model of Garmin Nuvi) in Blade shows the map of the Philippines in 3D. I'm not sure what Philippines map they used but this device is Philippines edition only, IIRC that's the nuvi 1360? How did they have 3D maps?
