No, all my routing information has been created within GPSMapedit.

So you just created all the routing nodes and verified the map in GPSMapedit and then compile the .mp file in cgpsmapper?

What version are you using? Version 3.3 has been just released. I have tried several times to use MapTK, but it was never up to the task. If you need a reliable map, then use cgpsmapper. If you need free routable compiler, then try mkgmap.

yeah I actually did download 3.3 last night with same results. The weird thing is that the map from MapTK routes fine in mapsource, I haven't looked at mkgmap. Does that one compile routable maps from .mp files ?

Haven't tried recently, but it used to.  Definitely works with OSM and PBF files.  It's the default OSM compiler for Garmin.

mkgmap supports mp format with some limitations, like: no multiple labels, no 3-points restrictions, some special codes are missing (I think [~0x1F] is not supported). I have compiled big map with multiple tiles prepared for cgpsmaper an it needed really minor changes to be accepted by mkgmap. Many glitches remained but routing was functional. It was something, that I was never able to achieve with MapTK.

Yes, that is what I do.
