Full screen op Ipaq HP 214?
Don't misunderstand me, the parameters (I think) won't help you to start NavFree in full screen. I just thought, you could be using those parameters. Otherwise I don't have an idea. Sorry.

Blocked road not considered when calculating/navigating
Hi mdx, I think, it's ok, that Pedestrian are allowed to walk aganst the official direction of an oneway, or doesn't has to care about turn restrictions. Just a blocked road shouldn't be used. Any other shoud be allowed!. (Execpt mot…

Full screen op Ipaq HP 214?
Hi Ard, I'm using NavFree on two different WinCE-Systems, but in both cases I've got full screen mode. How do you start the program? Just doubleclick on the navigator.exe or with a link? In the manual for PC-version, there are start-par…

Die Standardstimme klingt nun mal ein bisschen wie unter Drogen... Die Doris ist einfach realitätsnäher, zumindest zu anderen Navisystemen.

Which kind of vehicle (oder auch Fahrzeugtyp) are you using? When I try this with pedestrian (Fußgänger), the blocked part of the road is being used, so the block doesn't work. But vehicle typ = Car the blocked road is not used, an other way i…

france-map to be split?
Hi mdx, I think, that's a good choice. I first wanted to do a little bit other selection, but yours is a good idea. Looking forward to four France maps :-)

Ireland Maps
@ mdx the correct german translation for United Kindom is Vereinigtes Königreich . Do not use Great Britain (Großbritannien), because that is without Northern Ireland. Just as info.

Well, I don't know, which site gmmas uses, but I prefer this one: http://www.archiescampings.eu/ About 31003 campsites in Europe. And there I take the gpx-files, because Digger 12 supports them. But be aware, you have to convert the gpx-fil…

Change sounds for camera warning
Gut, schade, dann kann ich Dir leider auch nicht weiter helfen. Kenne mich mit Android überhaupt nicht aus. Mein Handy ist noch aus einer anderen Generation... Viel Erfolg beim Forschen. Und, vielleicht kannst Du bei Erfolg die Lösung ja posten?…

Sorry, you're right, I'm using the WinCE-Version. Well, I don't know anything about Android, but perhaps this will work: Do you can locate your settings.xml file for Navigator on your mobile? There should be the -XML Tag. In th…

no route
This should be a missing road-part in OSM-Data. The actual Sweden-mca-map from MapFactor contains a broken street (E 10). There is a little part missing. In the meantime that road in OSM is fixed. Probably with the next map-update from MapFactor it…

Hi Martin, well, opening the mca.file like you described, works fine, but to re-pack it again doesn't do. When the icon (for the wpt - waypoints) is copied, a folder named .mca is created and finally "DC.exe" throws an Error: ERR 2…

Hi Martin, thanks, great. After a while of try and error, I managed to get DiggerConsole.exe running. It's fantastic. Generating an mca is now easly done from the console. The only thing I'm missing is the possibility to use a mca-file …

Add group to Favourites
This is a work-around, but no solution. Add a new group and delete it again. After that there should be no group selected. Now you can add a new independent group. But, this is only a work-around!

No, I took the gpx-files (GPX eXchange-www.archiescampings.eu_vs_01-05-13). With Digger 12, you can import gpx and other stuff.

I can confirm that behaviour. I usually create my own campside-mca maps with the gpx-files from http://www.archiescampings.eu/dui1/ I build six mca's, north-east, north-west, south-east, south-west, france and acsi-campingcard. The two mca-m…
