Thread: TOPO Germany 2012 Pro

hi, i don't know how to identify the tile ID or the IMG.number - it is the tile in NorthRhine Westfalia, in the Eifel, near Dueren, West of Kreuzau, around Wehebach Talsperre - hope that helps - thxs !

i did some testing - when i transfer the tile to SD with MapSource (only the tile, not all the map) it will show in 62St; when i transfer the whole map to SD with MapInstaller, BaseCamp or MapSource the map will show but not the tile; i don't understand why ... - cananyone in the forum maybe help me ? as fallback i switched to Germany V3 (tile working well) but this cannot be the solution - thxs for any qualified reply ;-)

nope - only Topo Germany 2012 installed on SD - but i did a trick which worked : i copied the tile via MS to SD as separate gmapsupp.img in addition to the Topo Deu 2012 .IMG; it worked somehow; i still do not see the logic or the root cause and would like to understand ... - would anybody know what the reason for not showing a tile could be ? thxs

@bommelb - thxs a lot for your suggestions, i will check - in the meanwhile i deleted the recreational map europe from my 62st (i don't need it anyhow) and loaded the Topo Deu 2012 into the 62st main memory - guess what - the tile shows up ;-) - i think that will work now AND it gives me free space on the 8GB SD card (yes, the 62st works with 8GB !) to put the rest of europe TOPO maps on it - happy now ^-^

i found it out - map conflicts between Topo Benelux and Topo DEU 2012 - Giomen was right - thxs for all your great support - my little contribution to the Forum could be that Oergon and 62St work with 8GB SD and not only with 4GB SD as stated in the GPS Systems part of the Forum - ;-)

Okee, thats some new information. Also Topomap Benelux active in your gps. Always have 1 (one) map active in your gps in combinaition with the Basemap. Otherwise you have problems with mapviewing and routing ! Although topomap Benelux has a drawpriority=24 and topo Germany=30 (higher) there are problems when both maps are activated in your gps.

Other issue: deleting recreational map: I hope You made a backup ! Why buying the sT version and then deleting I'm wondering. The recreational map is not routable but has very good DEM (elevation) information in the map. So if you have other (topo) maps in your gps and these maps has no DEM, you can use the DEM-information from the Recreationalmap. I suggest you keep the recreational on the gps.

hi bommelb - i have all of europe covered with topo maps and for mountainbiking the recreational map is not worth much, for which reason i deleted it - yes, i have a backup and thxs for the hint
wrt to several maps active at same time: if you do MTB tours e.g in the Eifel or around Sothern Bavaria alps, you touch several contries (e.g Germany, Netherlands or Austria, Switzerland) and you don't want to switch maps all the time -> much more convenient to have them active and do the riding - i never encounteres issues before, this BeNeLux/DEU is the first time i saw such a behaviour (and only on 1 tile) - i believe Garmin has an issue here and i hope the rectify it in one of the next version - thxs !
