Hi,

This one has me stumped and have so far been unable to find the option.
My CurrentMap.dat file reads:-

& \Storage Card\Great_Britain_Plus\

and I have Great_Britain_Plus on SD card.

Now, I also want to have maps of france as also have France_Plus-Map on my SD card.
The question is though is do I just add an extra line to my CurrentMap.dat file so its reads

& \Storage Card\Great_Britain_Plus\
& \Storage Card\France_Plus-Map\

and if so - how to I change to the France_Plus-Map maps in TomTom nav, I just cannot seem to figure it out or is it just too easy and I keep missing is?

Thanks

Scott

You switch maps using the TomTom Preferences:
Change Preferences/Switch Map/Select a map.

Wow you are super complicating the problem there!!
kartracer is right.

Also you may want to consider if you really need plus maps of both here. You really only need one plus map as having another is just duplicating the same info and so is a waste of space.

The CurrentMap.dat file is there purely to let the TT program know which map is the current map.

If you Switch Maps in Change Preferences and open the file again it will reflect the map that you have switched to.

If you manually alter the file, it will give TT a headache, and TT with a headache is not a pretty sight. :D
