Please help - Map overlays

[frankgregg]

I have the same problem with a TT One. Looked at the existing Europe overlays. The only difference was that the Europe sat's start with a dash instead of the file name.
-
1.98701
55.45444
etc....

Changed to that format, but still no luck.
???
Any ideas, folks?
Thanks.

I'v got it sorted

Hi all from the UK I like this forum very helpful.

I was having a problem getting my TomTom XL the overlays would not work and found that notepad saved the file as a txt and not SAT see attachment.

The way I got it to work was in notepad goto SAVE AS put in file name in the case wathalf.SAT in SAVE AS TYPE put ALL FILES and in ENCODING put ANSI.

Hope this is helpful to some one.

Moap Overlay Solution

Hi All
I Had The Same Probs ..... The Mape Overlay Would Not Show !!!!
I Think I Have Found Out The Prob ......
You Have To Give The Coordinates As Degrees ..... NOT Deg / Min / Secs .......
Once I Changed From Deg / Min / Secs To Deg The Map Overlay Worked
