This Way for Map This! v0.2 |
Ó
If Deniska's Map This! is a piece of artwork, it is a darn good conversation piece. One of the most talked about application for the PSP thus far, it has never failed to spark the interest of readers, considering the amount of comments and jumps it has received every time it gets featured here at QJ.
Just so we're on the right course (excuse the pun), a little refresher. Map This! can turn your PSP into a map viewer, easy as pie. The latest version contains the following changes.
- Compass bug fix
- CPU clock speed toggle between 222 & 333Mhz
- Battery life display
- Improved POI support (displays up to 400 closest POI on screen / works in "track up" mode too now)
- Basic waypoint support
- New configuration paramaters (READTIME, WARNINGDISTANCE, etc)
- People with slow baud GPS devices should try to adjust NMEA read timing (READTIME >1)
- Some graphics tweaks and new sample map.
Check out this video to see the application in action as it highlights the route feature.

1rst?
wow this is really cool =/
this ll gonna be the best gps for psp
where do i get the gps recever and it is still hard to install.
wo this looks cool. but how does it work? gps? wifi? the article didnt state it
nocomment
dose any body know where i can download these maps allready zipped
To Number 5... Build the GPS unit yourself, pretty simple, not like that f*cking diluted platinum. http://www.qj.net/Update-GPS-Mapviewer-For-The-PSP-Tutorial/pg/49/aid/62297 /> To number 7: you need to use a tool on denskis site, it converts msv/virtual word maps, you can get prety much anywhere: http://www.qj.net/index.php?&pg=64&p22=1&q=deniska&type=date
is there anyway to get this to work on firmware 2.60?
yeah, use the E-loader duh.
Without a gps this program is so stupid oh wait theres one coming out next month i guess i just pwned myself
ok so if i use the eloader on a 2.60 then what eboots do i use for the program. 1.0 or 1.5 eboots?
HOW DOES THIS WORK?
How can I make it use hybrid map isnted of regular map? And how do I put a waypoint using the psp?
It seems as though whenever someone (not just you, garmin did it to) comes up with a gps program they leave out my Province. You know that big island off the east coast of Canada, that is called Newfoundland, hmmmm why isn't it named here? St. pierre et miquelon is there right below us and named but where I live is nameless.We are the oldest place in North America, if it wasn't for us there would be no U.S. or Canada yet we are always left out. Maybe this will refresh everyone's out there collective memory! The North American SEAL HUNT!!!!!!!!!hell even sir paul doesn't know where we are. So I forgive you and google maps.
is it possible to track your friends PSP with your PSP, if both have this same software and GPS...?
how do you download google maps and how do you sue this thign to see close ups?
Its stupid cause ou have to make your own GPS device that costs a lot. Just wait for the official Sony GPS.
For everybody who doesn't know how easy thins is: The zip (or rar) file that you will download comes with an html version and an eboot version for the PSP. It also comes with a program that downloads the maps for you. You don't have to doanything really...
I THINK IM JUST GONNA WAIT FOR THE REAL GPS FROM SONY SO I CAN SAVE SPACE ON MY MEMORY STICK FOR MUSIC..
the psp gps looks nice and slick, compared to anthing you have to make at home, but u never know with sony what they could have up thier sleve... their gps reciver might not ever work for us 1.5 users
With this thing, I have no Idea what to do! I'm a n00b! no0o0o so anyway I dl this thing (2.8) and I don't know what to do with it now, please help!
Geez people, how can you all complain about the cost of using this or the space used on your memory stick, and yet you still read this site? This site is ALL ABOUT putting stuff ON your memory stick.... If you just want to play music, buy a f*cking iPod. The GPS receiver for this costs about $60 if you shop around Ebay a bit... If you can't aford that, maybe you shouldn't be spending money on things like PSPs... Now, if you don't have soldering skills, that I can understand, you do have to actually _build_ something. But, yes, the GPS is available NOW. I haven't heard what Sony's GPS will cost, but it sure isn't going to be free... And I doubt it will work with satellite imagery like this does... That's REALLY cool... As for space, I downloaded a usable map for _ALL_ of Los Angeles (roughly 50 Sq miles) and it only takes about 48 meg. (It's not down to the lowest zoom, but it zooms in enough to read all the street names, what more do you want?) Take the Paris Hilton album off your memory stick, now you have plenty of room for wherever you live... The only bad thing about this is that you have to download the maps for anywhere you are going to go, but most people don't travel too far without advance notice, just download the areas you are going to... Downloading, BTW, only takes a few minutes and is easy to do with in7ane's tool... And if you want me to see a comment you might make to this, you have to register. I'm smart enough to turn off the 'Unregistered' comments by default since, as can be seen here, 99.9% of all the unregistered comments are just idiot n00bs...
so how do you download those maps? On google they dont have a download button and I dont have a real gps with it just using the maps to guide me.
I realize that the interfaces are different - serial and usb - but what are the chances/possibilities of using this software with the official sony GPS receiver? It'd make it a lot easier for power management and simply just putting it on the top - makes it easier to use the ant. that way while driving. who knows, maybe the sony one will be crap anyway and buying the holux one will be worth the money/mod. chances of the firmware requiring something high is almost guarenteed anyway
So after you wait and buy your official gps how much you think your gonna pay for the UDM for each state?
Well I just need a cabe to my gps to my PSP I hope I can buy one becasue I am useless to making my own
nice nice work, thouroughly enjoying this on for my car :) THANKYOU VERY MUCH
This is the best program yet for the psp! nice work. :D
only got USB
i like the idea of this program but i cant get wifi to work since the previous version.... i download the map, it says press select to cancle when the download is complete, it takes me back to the main screen and then i proced to the map i downloaded and the program crashes.... wtf... if ne one has this problem or knows how to fix it put up a post
to number 32 dont go to the link its a refer link all it does is help him and spam your email
well this is pretty good.. but gps for only one city?!?! stop if im wrong but thats kinda lame
Since I've actually used the app, I'll comment. It's nice and works fairly well overall but even though it's 0.2 things I noticed: A GPS off would be useful. my POI of over 1000 crashes the PSP the 2kb files are too small for larger mem cards (my 1gb card uses over 8kb per file due to FAT) Finding a POI is a pain if you don't already know where it is. Possible find function would be cool. I haven't checked if this is or isn't possible, but zipping portions of the map would help with the sizing issue and keep the speed up as you'd only unzip one or two small zips.
