Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
Just one thing: it used to work in the past (i.e. using the Windows installer package combined with GMTK) to install several different maps or did I just get lucky? (have currently 2 OSM mapsets installed in Basecamp, one of Cuba and one of South-Africa).
I'm not sure but I think that works only for the preselected country maps. They get a unique Map ID and also separate uninstallers.

Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
The server lately has been extra slow taking a couple of hours to download a 150 mb map.
Right now the servers are saying
osm.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de/garmin/, queue = 106 requests (~0.4 days), status = OK
osm2.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de/garmin/, queue = 2264 requests (~9.4 days), status = OK
I don't think I have seen 9.4 days before.
Is there a problem because the other 2 servers are not there?

Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
Hello, when downloading the map for Romania (routable or newstyle routable), part of the tiles don't seem to be included. I tried to select the map from the pull down menu as wel as using manual selection of tiles from the world map, but every time the same tiles are missing. It does not seem to be caused by my GPS unit, however I have no way of checking the tiles that are not displayed are actually included/present in the files as I use the gmapsupp.img directly on the unit. Thanks and best regards.

Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
Hello, regarding the map of Romania (post 19-04-2017), I downloaded it once more as preselection and once as own selection, but central and eastern tiles (Bucharest, Constanta - every time the same tiles) are somehow not included in the download. Now I not only verified this on the device, but on the computer as well. I don't see errors in the Pleiades log, nor when downloading. Best regards,

Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
Last Friday (April 21) I got the e-Mail with the message "You successfully requested a Garmin map",
and on Sunday morning (April 23) the current status of my request was "... request ... not be found in the queue. Most likely the map is already generated and you received another email containing the url ..., or you should receive that email shortly."
However, NO such e-Mail with the URL for download came in up to date. WHAT IS WRONG ?
(I did never encounter similar difficulties in the past, and I did not change my Google mail account since)

Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
Wanderer52, maybe you should wait a little longer or else, just make another request.
osm2.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de/garmin/, queue = 1566 requests (~6.5 days), status = OK

Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
I don't have a clue how much time it takes, but if you are in a hurry you can look for another provider, try https://extract.bbbike.org/

Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
ref.: #2734 & 2753
Apparently, maps build by requests that entered the queue ordinarily on April 21 got lost: The message about reaching the end of the queue and of sending e-mails with the download-link was issued on Sunday morning - but these download links did never arrive.
Instead, I got the downloads for a later request (originating from April 24) making clear that we cannot blame the e-mail servers. Rather, something was wrong with osm2.pleiades on last Friday/Saturday/Sunday.

Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
There are currently 2590 requests in the queue...
There is clearly something stuck. Can anyone find the paper jam in this machine and reset?

Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
Hi.
I was requesting a map and got a tracking id.
http://osm2.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de/g … 9e92089247
Now it says there is no information, so the map should be ready.
But i have not received any email saying that i can download the map.
i had the same problem just a week ago, and i had to request the map again, but also this time i never got the ready-mail.
i checked if it ended up in spam, but no. i simply never got it.
it also seems like the servers load is very unbalanced.
osm.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de/garmin/, queue = 0 requests (~0 days), status = OK
osm2.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de/garmin/, queue = 2540 requests (~10.6 days), status = OK
do you know if there are some problems currently?

Unfortunately Lambertus doesn't seem to communicate so we don't know what's going on.

thanks ligfietser,
I looked at bbbike and I have to say I like it.
There is only one drawback. it only creates .img files.
Anyone knows of an simple way to install the .img files to Garmin Basecamp?
I mean simpler than installing and configuring GMapTool and MapTk, etc..
Kind of point and click...
And not just adding the file to an USB drive into the \Garmin folder, but actually installing it as map in Basecamp...

Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
Basecamp can use the .img file on your device. You don't need to install your maps on the pc.

Yes, this is what I mentioned indirectly with USB drive and putting the .img file into the Garmin folder on that drive. A Garmin device is (more or less) nothing else than a USB storage for BaseCamp.
However, if I remove the device (or USB) from the PC, I will loose access to the .img map.
This is one of the reasons I want to actually install the .img file into BaseCamp. The website garmin.openstreetmap.nl allows me to download not only the .img file, but also the installer exe to add the map to BaseCamp.
This is what I miss on bbbike.com. This site, is focussed only on devices and this .img files.

Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED
Grokit, a workaround is to drag and drop the gmapsupp.img onto the osmcombiner tool. It can make an installable map for Basecamp. The only drawback is that the img doesn't contain the tiles for the overview map, you need to zoom in a little bit more until you will see the map.

Basecamp can use the .img file on your device. You don't need to install your maps on the pc.
Sure, but the speed is not the same, and the storage space in the devices is limited and maybe not big enough for storing all the maps you want.

It also works from a virtual drive: http://www.javawa.nl/virtualdevice.html
