"Loads of them" Really?


Yes indeed, far more than with my old TomTom, I really only remember that being wrong once (there was a hedge growing across the road) but the Garmin is a lot of the tim ...

Thank you Dales:

Actually, it seems you can download 24 x 24 icons too so I will try that.

Are you saying that there is, in fact, no way to edit the map data on the Nuvi 2595?

I suspect tha ...

Thank you!

In fact, I downloaded the voice files you referenced and found the wav files were bigger than the wav files in the speed camera update - so I substituted them and then ran a fake trip wi ...

Thank you Dales for the encouragement, however I now wonder exactly where to download voices?

If I go to the map download page I would select for SatNav System: Garmin POILoader and then for Camera ...

I did all that I suppose I should have and put the sox.exe file in with POI Loder.exe in the POI Loader file.

So now I have a couple of chimes but still no voice and I ...

BTW I assume the path to the POI Loader folder is:

Not a problem, but the Garmin 2595 does not have an mp3 player and the POI downloader does not accept wav files. Having said that, the mp3 files are accepted, but clearly do not play.
