yes, roger, i have to put the 3 files together before using poi loader.
i've got personalised bmp & sounds for my N�vi 200, so i keep them for each update

no, roger, but when renaming the new files as my customs files, i keep my icons.
it's not too long to do.
i'm just trying to find mobile database to update mine, now
Hi,
I created a PackSecurityTTH_1304.gpi file from unzipped last link.
I put this .gpi file into a POI folder on a microSD card with City Navigator Europe.img file.
I read this microSD on my Montana, and several problems occured :
- first, although dangerous zone POIs are registered in "where to go" on my Montana, they are not displayed in CN when Montana is on simulation.
- Dangerous zone POIs are only displayed while navigating with no Garmin icons, but only with a point surronded with a little circle : don't .bmp files work on Montana ?
- Dangerous zones are only notified with a bip (and something written in red on screen) a few meters before radars : no charming girl voice : don't .wav files work on Montana ?

I state that I do not know how does the Montana,sorryI assume that it behaves like a nuvi automotive
For testing,try the bouquet precompiled in GPI for SCDB (France,of course)....and test for icons BMP. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
If they work at least icons, you can try the GPX, the BMP, and WAV files (from bouquet GarminHeaven) always SCDB
If you prefer,you post the files association (i.e. namePOIsfile.gpx with namesoundfile.wav) sound and I'll get ready the GPI
Bye,bye
Hi,
I put :
- all .bmp icons from Garmin SCDB into CustomSymbols folder in Garmin Montana folder,
- all .gpx files into GPX folder,
- Files.gci into a POI folder.
and it worked ! (can see icons and waypoints on the CN map without navigating)
But I can't see the interest of having both icons and waypoints flags on the map, so that I have suppressed .gpx files.
Where can I find .wav files ? Can I use PackSecurityTTH ones ?

GULPP....!!!
Sergio (name tipically Italicus),sorry, but put in your device ONLY the GPX or GPIVery important.
The icons BMP (24x24 or 44x44) and filed GPX are provided to make yourself your own file GPI (with PoiLoader). Ok...
My GPI in bouquet rared is product with icons 24x24 and files GPX
Foe sounds: yes, you use the files offered by TTHaven...Ex: Camera.gpx.....Camera.bmp....Camera.wav (rename the file namefile.wav from bouquet TTH,to your choose)
Use Poiloader in Manual....and make sure to have the sox.exe (r.14.0.1) in the folder of Poiloader.exe[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Bye,bye
Hi,
Finally I managed to use icons .bmp and excel .csv files from TThaven to create an .gpi file with POI Loader.
Nevertheless, all attemps to associate either a .wav file or a MP3 file with .bmp and .csv failed : it looks as if Montana is unable to read .wav files.
I tried to use both sox.exe files :the normal one and the one you modified. When I ran POI loader with yours, sox.exe didn't open while with normal one sox.exe could be run but apparently did nothing.
Fortunatly, alarm can be activated on Montana before each dangerous zone thanks to POI Loader using it in manual mode.
Yes,the my (or better...of my friend ) sox.exe open never windows,with PoiloaderBut work fine....sure au lemon
Use the latest release of Poiloader...important
Then the Montana does not process sound files custom for the POIs.
However tomorrow (or Sunday....floral period, this) I prepare a file GPI (one category) ... the test on my nuvi and I send you.
Bye,bye
@ sergio2
I testing on my nuvi 1340 the pacK for Tunnel in France. File .GPX, file .BMP 24x24 and file .WAV associated...and works fine
Spoiler: CLICK
You test with my pack in your Montana:
Simulation GPS->set location-> Rue Marietton,75 Lyon (Rhone) ->route to Quai de Serbie (n� de la rue not necessary)
I have the alert for Tunnel with sound and icons just over the river
Bye,bye
