Can I edit maps somehow?

Can I edit maps somehow?

Long story short its been 3 days to get Europe_east map as a free user from that stupid slow rapidgator(and NO i wont pay 13$ for 1day service), now literaly my tomtomXL2 dosent have like 50-100mb of space to finish copying this map. I have deleted everything except the system files and with 1.80gb(from 1.85gb) it is still not enough

Can i somehow edit/delete like turkey, bulgaria, greece, romania, moldova, ukrane.... from the map to get it into my device, i wont go anyway to these country's, so i have no point in them on the device! Or will it f... up with the meta and tomtom wont recognise the map?

2. (and NO i wont pay 13$ for 1day service),

1. Navitotal doesn't upload to XXXXXXXXXX, meaning you have downloaded a 3rd party map, which Navitotal doesn't support.
2. Nor will you ever be asked to pay to download anything that Navitotal uploads!!!
Take a look at:
Eastern_Europe_960_7056 (443MB)
Eastern_Europe_960_7075 (417MB)

What device??
What navcore??
Europe East 960.XXXX??

1. Sorry mistype - it was ment for filefactory ;)
2. I need east part of central europe(Italy, Germany, Austria, Swiss, Czech Republic) and Baltics because i live in Latvia. Sadly but eastern europe dosent provide(even some part of) central europe region. Will have trip soon, thats why i need those country's. Wanted the 'europe east' cuz time to time i drive to scandinavia region and would be cool to take my tomtom on my windshield.

Device: TomTom XL2 IQ routes Europe edition.
Funny enough, it had whole 'Europe' map inside with the device space, but sadly they are too outdated to be usable in any way (v890)
Navcore: 9510

:( I guess easy'er will be redownload CEE map....

No, no picking and choosing within an existing map.
Two things you can do:
- Delete (if present) cspeech files as these are not needed within map except when you want to use computer voice. You might pick and choose cspeech files that you will be wanting to use.
- Delete or replace poi.dat file. File containing all Places of Interest. You might replace it with smaller poi file of a (group of) countrie(s) which you're interested in. Poi files can easily be replaced.

You can regain storage space on your device by deleting unused (computer) voices, zip codes or images.

You don't edit a map on your device but you choose to install a zone (Europe-Central, East; North; South or West) which contains the countries you need.

If you buy the European map you can switch the installed zone. At Navitotal you can select the zone you need, install and patch it.
Unfortunately TT has changed the countries in the latest 965 maps with most features which makes them useless in a lot if cases. Better to choose for a 960 zone map. At least in my opinion.

Have a look at posts #28, #48, #53 in this thread to see if they will suit your needs.

As Razorblatter's already said, there's been a lot of changes in the new 965/966 European maps so you'll need to look at features/countries/size of map and make your choice between a single 965/966 map or combination of zones....or use an older 960 map.

I now added a graphical representation (a map view) of the high level (965_7250) maps which should be helpful in choosing maps.
...Or rather indicate the problem of choosing a suitable map.
For instance: Europe South used to contain Benelux, Germany and Austria. Not anymore, now these are replaced by Albania, Bosnia, Croatia, Kosovo, Serbia, Slovenia and a few other East-European countries.

No suitable map to drive from Benelux or Germany to Spain or Portugal!
