*** ~ Importing Directions From Google Maps & I Wish I Could Apologise ~ ***
  • *** All I'm asking for is the link to the guide or good, simple instructions on How to transfer google maps directions to mapfactor and it works***

    People have said that it hurts their pride to ask for help. I never really understood this because I think it's always good to ask for help. I've not been nice --> http://forum.mapfactor.com/discussion/comment/5438 -- and I've shown a lot of hate for mapfactor, and by association, anyone that uses it, which of course, isn't fair, but that's how I feel. So I understand if anyone will not help.

    Anyway, since the best commercial gps device solution has one key and unacceptable flaw, and my timeframe to find a GPS solution had pretty much pass, I decided to see if the routes/directions in mapfactor was "good enough", since that was the main problem, along with "easily transfer google maps directions to mapfactor"

    To do that fully, I need to transfer directions from google maps (current or the new version of google maps coming out of beta) to mapfactor and see.

    And there is not one guide (I could find) of how to use digger. What to do, or anything. If you're suppose to dl digger onto windows or android or any instructions on how to use it. What in the world digger is, or who made it, or anything. 98% of the nontechnical world population will not know how to use this crap, or what it is part of. Un-friendly software upsets me incredibly, just as it should anyone else.

    I'm not sure if it's pride that hurts, but I definitely don't feel comfortable or happy having to.

  • There is no need to use digger. Just let it be and you'll be happy. As I am with digger (not using it).
  • Google maps does not have any GPS coordinates, routes, waypoints or tracks to transfer to mapfactor navigator (blame google not mapfactor.)
    In any case why would you want to do that? If you prefer Google Maps directions why not just use that as your navigation app.

Howdy, Stranger!
