Title: Can I use .bni tiles loaded with other apps?
Post by: dak on April 18, 2012, 14:26:36
I downloaded MAPNIK and Open Cycle Maps with backcountry navigator pro. They are saved as numbered tiles .bni
Can I access/open/use them with locus pro or do I have to load them all again??

Dak,
  sorry but this is not possible. No format that have this very un-practical solution (one image == one file) is supported by Locus. I'm not much familiar with methods for converting various formats, so maybe someone other helps with this ...

Same problem. I have complete topo maps of New Zealand I'd love to use.
Edit: Just sorted it. Added directory to Personal Maps and works like a beauty.

Hello David,
  if this works for you, this should mean only that you have maps in any of supported formats. Locus anyway still do not support .bni maps
