Thread: City Navigator South America NT 2014.30

You can check what files your 2 units use by checking the GarminDevice.xml in hidden .System folder. You could search Garmin site to find specifications but that won't tell which specific files you need:

Hint: neither display 3D buildings or use G2S [but 2595 uses SID which are related], both use JCV and 2595 uses ASR2 files for Speech Recognition. Have a look at catymag's Post #2, that will get you sorted.

You must have the corresponding TTS voice as well for ASR to work. If you have Portuguese_Brazilian_Raquel.vpm already, connect to WebUpdater or GarminExpress anyway to check for any other firmware/software updates and then clear NV after backing up your files if you want to restore favourites etc later. On reboot, make sure you select Brazil as the locale.

If the above doesn't help, post a screenshot showing the error message about ASR, or post the text of the message, along with info regarding at what point it occurs

VW2;
I'm not a expert, but probably you are without the base map; actualize by WebUpdater or Express.

PS: Let's wait a true expert to talk about this if not work (there are many here!).

The limitations are: the maps can not be printed.
Installation of the older version 2014.10 via the msi installer in Mapsource shows also the 2014.10 version in Basecamp but no limitations.

I have installed GMap Tool version 0.8.159.746b which should have (I think) MDR support (version 0.8.143d already had).
cGPSmapper is v0.100d routable ******* version.

When I convert the gmapprom.img file (from 2014.30) with the GMap tools, I can install it in Mapsource.
Unfortunately I can - of course - not use the “Find” function in Mapsource (which is a lot better than the one in Basecamp), and I do not see the map 2014.30 in Basecamp.

Questions:
1. In Mapsource: with the map details set at “Highest” ,as of a scale of 150 km I get a blanc map, with lower scale I do see the map.
With the map details set at “Lowest” I get a blanc map as of a scale of 10 km.
What did I do wrong in the conversion with GMap tools to get this, and what should I do in order to fix it?
2. Version 2014.10 has no limitations although 2014.30 has.
If we assume Garmin is still getting it’s maps from the same supplier, why are there then in 2014.30 limitations and how can we get rid of them?

Gmaptool, any version cant decode search index, so MS Gmaptool splitted versions wont have Search function enabled, it doesn't matter which CGPSMapper you are using. (better to use free version)
From Help:

Unfortunately GMapTool is unable to convert a MDR file form mapset into a format acceptable by Mapsource. Do not bind this files to Mapsource, it will not work properly.

GmapTool adds a very basic preview map, so to see the map you must have details at max and zoom in
You can improve it, if you like. Instructions here

In order to be able to print maps using Basecamp you have to install the original DVD version of the software. The SD card (img) is made to be used mainly on the unit only.
