truck map v860

Sun Feb 06, 2011 6:45 pm

Can somebody with the latest truck map check the standard tomtom poi,s. I have all the categorys but when i tried to navigate to the nearest post office it said ther were no poi,s found. Checked a few more ie police station, hospital to find more than 80% had no poi,s in them at all. Very stange:chok_mini:
switched to a different map (not truck) to find all categories had loads of poi,s in.

He is not trying to load POIs, he is referring to pre-loaded standard TT POIs.

yes its the standard poi,s that come with the map thats the problem.

The extra ones i download from tomtom are in the map folder along with any i create my self. I would think it either a map error or download error just need to wait for some one with the map to check

Thanx for the suggestion. They don't have to be "ticked" to navigate to them. What is your 3122 poi.dat size?

poi.dat =164,913

As there had not been much response to my problem ( thought alot of people used the truck map) my poi .dat file was the same size as mondo 1955 , so i decided to replace my files including the crpoi.data file from a truck map v840 which i had previousley used and now have fully working standard poi files including all the post offices which used to say none found.

Yes, I know. As I said, those 2 files are 4 editions out of date.

Just tried this on 860 truck map (navigating to nearest PO), loads of choices came up, worked fine. Tried another POI (beach), all good. Same size files in map folder as post #9.
