Other features / MapsForge maps V4/V5
January 03, 2019, 15:10:49
Hi to all at the start of the new year 2019,

more and more (advanced) users complain about little weird support of the latest version of MapsForge maps (V4+) in Locus Map app. So let's move with it?

I would like to ask for help here. First I need to better understand current problems with the support of latest MapsForge lib in Locus Map. From this, I would like to create a list of tasks that need to be done and set priorities. Please be short, be clear (or point me to already existing clear and short post).

I'm sure, that most of info was already wrote somewhere here, but to be true, I'm still confused about this topic. Thanks for understanding and help.

List of current known problems

  • fixed 256x256 tilesize, should scale based on DPI, more info - solved
  • hardcoded usage of themes V3 maps = V3 themes, V4+ maps = V4 themes - solved
  • multiple themes per directory - solved
  • missing auto-loading - solved, seems to be little slow when more maps is loaded, but works
  • problem with hillshading system, more info
  • incorrect redraw of text labels after zoom, more info
  • support for MapsForge POI

Other features / Revision of Locus Map texts
October 05, 2017, 17:46:27
Copy of my global email to all people who helps with app translation:

Good evening dear friends,
hope you all have a great time. If Locus app still follows you in your life, even better.

Among other things I still change and modify ( some of you maybe noticed completely new Route planner and Track editor screen that will probably come out next week ), I've also decided that after all these years, texts in app should be polished, united, simplified, etc.

So, we are currently making few steps to accomplish this task. All who wants to continue in amazing translation work, please check our "Translation manual" page here http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:about:translation with few tips and tricks, how text should sound and look like.

We are also changing quite a lot of texts in app, but in slow step-by-step process, where every change is well tested and confirmed. So no worry, there won't be "translate all again" action, but it will all take maybe half a year ( expect ).

  • Please do not use this forum to promote your product, service or business, we're not an advertising agency.
  • Stay on topic.
  • Do not double post (post the same message twice in one thread) or cross post (place the same message across several forums). We won't react twice as well.
  • Do not post new problems on someone else's thread and interrupt a topic of discussion - as we've said - stay on topic.

  • Do not promote or suggest problem solving through warez, cracks or illegal downloading of software. Always go clear and clean as we do.
  • Do not post any content that violates a copyright. You never know who might be our partner some time. Any post of this character will be immediately removed and the violator will be warned. Only once.
  • Try to find the answer to your query in the Locus Manual or on Locus website first. You'll be successful in 90%.
  • Please try to  insert your queries in English or Czech. Topics in other languages are tackled with a little help of uncle Google and we can't secure his flawless grammar.
  • There's one exception - German threads are moderated by German power users (but nobody from Locus team).

Hello @poutnikl,
special topic for You from my experience last days.
As you know, we went on small vacation and there is no day without Locus. We are in city Pula in Crotia and we ride two days over 800km just with BRouter and your "Car-Fast" profile. Well ... it definitely needs improvements :).

Examples, try to compute:
N48.98271, E014.47151 > N48.97780, E014.46648 .. terrible shortcut over tiny streets
N45.57770, E013.91192 > N45,40608, E013.96209 ... this one was really bad, we ended somewhere in middle in tiny village and had to go almost back to start and take road 409 and 208.

There were a more problems, but these two are most obvious. I think that your profile really needs an higher preferences for a main road compare to tiny local roads, which are in some cases (like in Croatia) almost unusable for tiny family cars like our Fiesta :).

Is it possible to make some improvements so I may test it after 10 days when we will ride back? Bike & foot profiles works fine till now!
