I have been trying to upload a Custom Garmin raster map .kmz file that has 8 individual map tiles in the single .kmz file and keep getting an error message. I thought GPS File Depot was accepting kmz file uplaods now. Can my .kmz file to be uploaded only contain 1 map tile? Thanks for any help.
Yep, on the PC right-click on your kmz file and choose Send To > Compressed (zipped) Folder. You will then be able to upload. Glad to see somebody else has custom maps to contribute, I have a bunch here: http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/maps/byuser/282/
Do you guys think people would mind downloading the actual .kmz file? I can allow those as well.
Actually the .kmz file *is* the custom map, that's the beauty of it. It just needs to meet Garmin's guidelines in terms of the number of tiles and pixels.
Thanks for the replies / help everyone.
If the .kmz file could be downloaded, that would be best because then it is just a simple copy and paste into the :Garmin/Custom Maps folder on the GPS or memory card... about as easy as it could be to get a custom map.
Alright; I've modded the script so that .kmz files can be uploaded as a "windows" file; I'll work on modding the windows/mac thing so that .kmz files are flagged as either OS.
