@hvdwol - thanks. The dialog indexing shifted and that's why old HW (2nd position) changed to new SW (2nd position) ... yes, it could be done better. (as side-effect several people tested old SW rendering in 0.38.90 and it was crashing in some …

@hvdwolf - I am not sure what do you mean? The map looked like SW rendering, but was selected HW rendering?? Or automatic? The choice for "automatic" in 0.38.90 is simple - return SW. It is placeholder for future changes and it should be …

The link now points to 0.38.90+ GLES Alpha: - fixed long routing highlight (I am not sure if that helps also in Tantum's case) - optimization in click into map (set routing points) - fixed loading icons from imports - increased size of internal…

Where do I put the mca file of my self generated POIs in PC Navigator 14?
The path is specified in atlas_pcn(_free).idc, by default __USERPATH__\import\ which is c:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Navigator\14.3\import for example (Win7)

Is it possible to automatically start navigation after remotely sending waypoints?
I would check command without text, i.e. $destination=51.48xxx,6.9xxxxx;51.47xxxx,6.94xxxx;51.46xxxx,6.95xxxx;50.36xxxx,7.5xxxx;navigate (I am not sure if you want to use also "departure" for your project)

Hello, the link http://download.mapfactor.com/mapfactor_navigator_gles_alpha.apk now points to 0.38.84+. There are still many issues to be solved, but it is probably better idea to experiment with new version than with the old one. Known issues: - s…

The map now contains more "destination" tags than before (before it was only in combination with lanes). I would agree that arrow on the signpost is wrong (should be straight instead of right). But filtering in run-time is then much more c…

It should be fixed now (0.38.78). Please let me know if you are still forced to uninstall. Thanks

Yes, that's what we wanted to avoid that you do not have to uninstall and in some cases re-download maps. Next version should differ only by the internal version.

@hvdwolf - it is probably the same issue: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/6505867 destination = Groningen;Zwolle So how way tag "destination" should be interpreted? (in particular if it passes several crossings, which is case of JohnJ, …

Can somebody else confirm issue on this crossing? I downgraded to 1.5.22 and it still works for me. It could be that there are (in the data) two "overlapping/colliding" signpost paths, but it still should be deterministic. Can you try 1.6.…

No, I really meant utf-8 encoding, where character is stored in more than 2 bytes, for example: http://www.utf8-chartable.de/unicode-utf8-table.pl?start=64512
