Re: when importing route prepared with Basecamp, XT recalculates

I finally have recovered a Basecamp that no longer crashes when searching (so far) jfheath . I have transferred your new route and it loads in almost no time on my GPS. I tried to rebuild a route using search results to create waypoints and the GPS ... calculates when loading my version of the route...

Re: when importing route prepared with Basecamp, XT recalculates

(redacted) If a GPX is loaded with an unknown mapsegment number i'm not surprised that the XT starts to recalculate. The special value '00ff' seems alright. Now for me the question that remains is, how did the invalid mapsegment numbers get there? It could very well be the result of the Basecamp cr...

Re: What are your next projects (roadtrips)

The cost of ferries is exhorbitant over here. I agree. It is very expensive. I don't remember it was that expensive the last time I took a ferry to england (a long time ago). Eurotunnel seems to be much cheaper (131 euros for my bike two-way ticket Calais - Folkstone, I don;t know if this include t...

OK I have something similar. I was expecting something more spectacular. (a question I have about the topoActive maps but this off-topic)

Re: when importing route prepared with Basecamp, XT recalculates

So I re-installed Basecamp after uninstalling everything Garmin using "Add or remove programs" then deleted all the files I could find in the usual folders (programdata, appdata\local|roaming etc ) and deleted as much garmin registry entries as I could. Bad luck, Basecamp after reinstallat...

Re: when importing route prepared with Basecamp, XT recalculates

Ok. Major success. (redacted) For the first time ever - the Basecamp map was showing the relief shading of the hills. (redacted) Can you please send a screenshot ? I cannot see the hills (but thru my window). Which map is selected in your Basecamp ? City Navigator Europe NTU or one of the TopoActiv...

Re: when importing route prepared with Basecamp, XT recalculates

What I cannot test yet is a search of the database for a waypoint. I need to reinstall Basecamap, and that is what I am about to do. Wish me luck. I may be some time. I'll take a backup of my registry, I think !! I had the same problem with the search tool causing basecamp to crash. And recovering ...

Re: when importing route prepared with Basecamp, XT recalculates

Thanks for testing and reporting back Chris. It confirms what I have found. - if I import your GPX file into Basecamp then the modified route will NOT be loaded fast (same as always ~1mn50s/2mns) I assume that you then send the file in Basecamp via USB? That is something I did not test. yes. GPS co...

Re: when importing route prepared with Basecamp, XT recalculates

(redacted) @chris7444 Please test the attached gpx file. Can you confirm that it loads fast? This is the file where I have modified 'Subclass' values. In my opinion Garmin (Probably the XT) does not handle this field well. In the past I have found that Via/Shaping points get renamed upon loading, a...
