As owner of my first Garmin, a 2595LMT, I was wondering if it can be "Upgraded" to show Australian 3D buildings and 3D topo maps?
Thanks

Downloaded all the required bits, followed the "How To" Tutorials
BUT no luck with the Aussie version of the 2595LMT
All of the Map Layers are there (and ticked) but no Terrain and only grey flat 3D buildings
Thanks anyway

Unfortunately, however,even if the functions are enabled as the maps loaded, no function, are active. Only the outlines of the buildings
From my 2595 EU/US ;)

Hi Roger 1109
I was fiddling with my Garmin last night after I'd installed all the bits previously mentioned.
I noticed after setting a simulated trip, with the Topo Aus/NZ V.4 Map, that if I switched from 3d to "Track up" Driving view, that I can see a shaded, colored landscape away from built up town areas,
Is this part of Topo?, or is it because of the previous Terrain installation?
Thanks

@ BlindPete
It seems strange that TOPO has a display 3dTerrain (DEM) or 3dbuilding (gmap3d),or which may render the 3D Terrain/3dBuilding of other map (CN)
Try disabling the gmap3d.img or DEM and see if it behaves the same.
If you post a screenshot we can better understand.Tnx...;)
Bye,bye
Hi Roger 1109
Attached are screenshots of my local area.
I did remove the DEM file, but not the 3D Bldg file.
Happy New Year to you and yours

Have you modified topo transparency with GMapTool ?
No, haven't done anything but follow the "How to" on putting 3D on 25X5's !!!Quote:

So do you have Australia gmapdem.img and topo Australia v4 ?
3Dterrain can work even on flat topo maps using gmapdem.img or alternatively shadings can come from basemap-
Topo has value priority 20, parameters 1 4 9 33 , gmapdem value priority 30, parameters 1 3 17 1-
