Thread: Garmin TransAlpin 2012 Pro

Hi,
I did not know you could patch Basecamp.
But anyway .db file should work on not patched Basecamp.
I downloaded the two versions (image and Mapsource) of Topo Germany Pro 2012 which is very similar to Topo Transalpine (new active routing with .db file as well).
I put the .img file with .db file in Garmin folder on a SD card, then read this card in Basecamp : when I created a route, no choice of trail was proposed.
But when I created a route in Basecamp with Mapsource version installed on my PC, choice of trail was proposed.
In conclusion, .db file only works in Basecamp with Mapsource version and not with .img version !

Thanks for the info.

About the patched basecamp, I haven't tried it but saw the info in this thread :

Hi,
when comparing in Basecamp, the new transalpin map has almost no POIs.
What is happening, does any of you had this problem?

PS map was downloaded from zippyshare.

Thank you

Could be a way for Garmin to sell more maps (topo maps for the trail, street maps for around town). Theoretically, this could double their map sales (you need two for each area you go to).
