Title: multiple TAR maps loading
Post by: ugn on May 10, 2012, 01:10:54
Hello,

I made quite big map, divided into 7 TAR maps. Zoom of this map is 16. After loading these maps into Locus, map manager shows there are zooms
16, 17, 18, 19, 20. I understand that loading multiple maps of same zoom, results in different zooms in locus. But in my case, there is only 5 TAR files loaded (not 7).

Is there any limitation of maximal zoom ?
Where is location, that is used to determine zoom of TAR map ?
Is there any other limitation of loading TAR maps (beside 2GB file limit) ?

Thanks for answers.

hmm as I see in code, I have there one cycle that tests same zoom level and it have 5 as one limit, so it's probably causing this. Anyway it don't have much sense to have more same zoom levels (as you have) as one map in way locus handle it right? As I understand you would like to have something like TrekBuddy support .. you may vote for this on GetSatisfaction https://getsatisfaction.com/locus/topic ... dy_atlases (https://getsatisfaction.com/locus/topics/support_for_tared_trekbuddy_atlases)

I using same zoom on several maps mainly as workaround to overcome 2GB limitation. But it would help, if it is possible to define multiple TAR files as merged one zoom level in map.
