Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic
 

FANTASTIC!!!!

granularity is not the best, but at least I now have near real time weather on my GPS.. I spent lots of time driving (about 3,400 miles in the last month) and having an easy way to see where I might run into weather is great...

Two last things.....
1. An overlay with nautical charts would really rock since I am an avid boater.. I already have this on google earth via a third party overlay.. I will have to try it and see if it works.

2. Any chance of displaying Distance from Beginning or Distance to end (choose between) in one of the corners of the map screen??

Thanks again for all the hard work of the community...

Yeah, but if you want to do a quick weather check before leaving for a trip it would be usefull.

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic
 

unfortunately I'm getting errors downloading weather maps. at first I thought it was the lack of weather where I am but I went somewhere where it was raining and saw nothing.

me too, i just get the hourglass flashing for a bit, then nothing

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic
 

Weather only works in the US for example (I see the hourglass, then nothing for both weather and traffic here in the UK), it does probably mean that there are no maps (even if there is weather) at your location ;)

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic
 

i am in the US, there is weather (tropical storm fay!)

i checked all over the country, didnt see any weather anywhere

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic
 

Double and triple check the link.. I had a heck of a time typing it in properly and there is no error message to let you know that you got it wrong... I just checked and it is working... I am right outside the of TS Faye now and it actually looks kinda cool viewing it on the tablet...

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic
 

yes i checked and doublechecked. its definatly correct.
is there anything else im suppose to set on that box?

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic
 

I have mine set for the CacheDB is on my external SD card, autofetch 10 minutes, Layer is Visible checked.. That't is....

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic
 

me too... i thought maybe i was out of memory or something, but i moved it to the sd card.

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic
 

actaully, those values must be replaced by mapper..

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic
 

Just wondering would it be possible to get gas stations (and prices) overlay from here to work with MM?
http://www.gasbuddy.com/GB_Map_Gas_Prices.aspx

Would be nice when travelling to know where to fill the cheap gas... :D

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic
 

It is theoretically possibile. To do this you need to trace logic of this script: http://www.gasbuddy.com/AdventMaps_v1_3.js and write a web service which will render obtained values on transparent pixmap. Currently, I'm planning to do the renderer for other purposes, but script seems quite complex and too obfuscated to me :(.
