Maps / Re: Need Help 4 Vector Maps
July 30, 2013, 12:20:45
thanks till here. i thought about, to use the newest version but:

i have seen some screenshots of version 2.13.1 and there is one thing i do not like. on the site, where you can choose and select the maps in online-mode, the names of the "provider" of the maps where shown on a cloudy and confusing colored display. i do not know, if that are the right words, but in the older version it is more clear and easy to read.

does the version 2.13.1 looks similar to the version 2.11.1?

i forgot something: if i choose the vector-maps in 2.11.1 the display shows me the country - but not complete. if i zoom in, some parts of the map zoom in and other parts not. it seems like if the display is frozen. if i click any function it works and all seems all right. if i zoom out and want to see the hole land, it seems that some parts of the map would not exists.

i tried the norway-map (~ 510 MB) from the first link. could this anyone test? maybe the map is not fully vectorized?

Maps / Need Help 4 Vector Maps

hello everybody,

i am new in this forum an i hope to find some help here. please notice, that my english is not the best but i hope you understand, what i am trying to ask for.

i used 2 versions of locus pro. the version 2.6.2 an it works fine without any problems an with all my vector maps. now i have the version 2.11.1 an all my vector maps did not work. after installation with the new version locus told me, that there are some files which have to be converted; but after that nothing works.

now i have totally deinstalled the programm and cleaned all files and handy. now i installed only the the version 2.11.1 and i do not know, where i could find some vector maps, which will work with my locus version.

i tried vector maps, which i have downloaded from the following sites:
http://www.openandromaps.org/
ftp://ftp.mapsforge.org/
http://vectormaps4locus.eu/
http://ftp.mapsforge.org/

are there more sites to find vector maps, which will work with my version? could anyone help please? i want to start in a few weeks my trip to norway and need some vector maps quickly. otherwise i have to install the old version, but i use it for geocaching and so the newer version is more comftable.

would be great to read some helpfull lines
