Hello,
how I can open TAR from TrekBuddy?
After putting him into /mnt/sdcard/Locus/maps
I tried to:
1. Map manager -> User maps -> Add
2. Data manager -> Import data
Both methods do not show any TAR files in Locus's file manager while browsing /mnt/sdcard/Locus/maps.
I have tried TrekBuddy map from Compass map makers and some custom one from MOBAC.
After exporting the same atlas into SQL method no. 1 works fine.
I can open those maps in TrekBuddy without a problem.
Am I doing something wrong with opening TAR files? Or is there a tool to convert TAR -> SQL format?
Best regards,
Irek Slonina

hi,
it's some atlas file? Try to extract big tar files from this atlas and place them into separate directory into Locus/maps directory, so for example like
locus/maps/myMap/tarFile01.tar
locus/maps/myMap/tarFile02.tar
locus/maps/myMap/tarFile03.tar
and this should work. It depend a little on map projection ... but should :)
I have tried both atlas and map files with the same result.
Thank you for your directions, it helped! :)
Working for me is to put those tar files into directory:
/mnt/sdcard/external_sd/Locus/maps/
where /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/Locus is the directory where Locus puts his files after installation.
After Locus restart they are visible in 'Map manager'.
