Thanks for that MaFt. Jolly well done. I'll try it out tomorrow.
I wholeheartedly second SallyAnn's sentiments and appreciate the work that she has done to help enable this.

Yes it has been fun. But there are plenty more challenges out there.

I'm sure we will all do our best to send in updates and corrections to the direction data in the usual way.

Well, you still have your international fans and mtc-builder users out here.
We will keep on using it. :D |

As we seem to have given up on the ruby of cocundoo and the crown jewels as being too difficult , how about this :D .
We were able to strip out Mobiles and Redlights from the PGPSW .asc list with your excellent speedcambuilder so it would be useful if you could 'change it around a bit' so that we could strip out the same in one step directly from the .mtc file without having to first decompile it with your speedcam reader then recompile with builder with the -m -r parameters.
How about that for a minor challenge when you have a few mins off from paying the mortgage? But I suspect that you have already thought of that?

Trevor, it is just not possible to 'edit' the mtc file. It is a complex structure with a number of coding tricks, and if you start removing some records you will lose many or all of the others as well. Try it and see!
If anyone were to create an editing program it would effectively be a Reader program chained to a Builder, with the editing done in between. You could duplicate this yourself with the two existing programs and a DOS batch file (remember them?)
As an alternative, MaFt has kindly included the .asc source file in with the initial .zip download, so you can run the Builder directly on that.
Hope this helps.

I remember batch files!!
Let's go back to the crown jewels then. I suspected that it might be the two stage jobbie, but obviously hadn't thought of good old DOS to run reader then builder with a bet of renaming between.
I havn't downloaded the Zip file as yet. I suppose that I shal have to do it now then.
I've been trying to learn the Mio progeamming scripts, with a little success. I've managed to write a cancel button for the speedcams alert, which auto switches on sound on an alert if you have got it manually switched off but be switched back off by tapping in the s/c display area. The sound is remuted after the alert has gone if you had it muted to start with. Looking at one or two other things now.
If anyone's interested, I'll publish the 'how to do it' in a more likely thread.

as sallyann also stated, if you download the pgpsw database you will also get the .asc file included too with ALL the heading data that we have.
feel free to use this as you please with your version of the builder program

As Swordsmaker wrote, the mtc-builder is in heavy use outside UK. And so we keep on building our national cam-files.
Was there the newer version to 212 available? |

I have uploaded a new version of the Speedcams Builder to
http://rapidshare.com/files/16265615/Speedcams_builder_215.exe
This update has no new facilities, just a couple of minor tweaks. It will probably be the final version.
I have also removed the earlier versions from the download site.
