    Ok .. np

    In fact, renaming your files custom,each update you do not have to do anything GPX or CSV files: will not change in the name...only in the database

    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,sorry I 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 GPI Very 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 Poiloader But 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
