 |
|
Hi,
Is it possible to use the speed camera database for tom tom (ov2 files) with CoPilot6. I looked at the status screen and it said that CoPilot6 ov2 files were coming soon.
Has anybody got CoPilot6 working with the tom tom files.
Many Thanks.

Do you mean use the PocketGPSWorld camera database files as ov2 format? in which case the answer is yes, please have a read through THIS Thread for additional information.
If you are considering using the TomTom supplied speed camera database then I am fairly sure these will not work on the Co-Pilot, the actual files are named bmp and ov2 BUT don't work in a "normal" way even on the TomTom device - Mike |

Well CoPilot6 is supposed to support ov2 format files, and secondly the CoPilot5 way of installing POI's is a massive pain. The ov2 and bmp files just need to be placed in CoPilot's save directory.
Thanks.

Thanks for the information, do you know if the icon's are located anywhere on the gpsworld webpages? I have contacted the author listed in the thread but it maybe some time before he see's the PM |
