V6 Australia Maps

Well with any luck we'll be able to mirror Google Maps onto it before V7 is released :)

Anyone see if the poi database is improved? From what I could tell it was pretty rubbish. Oh and in terms of the tmc stuff, it now searches for it but if course can't access any of them. I don't think it even searched before.

The number of POIs included has increased. Whether they are 'rubbish' is not arbitrary, as we all have different interests and needs.

I injected aussietigs latest POI file into the CD before installing it in the car so I wouldn't know. The graphics look a bit sharper/nicer, and it'll be interesting to see if the speed limit data on freeways is fixed and if the zoom out bug has been resolved.

I can assure you (from a WA perspective)...prescribed speed limits are now accurate.

Went in today and asked for the disc, they said they could sell it for $500 or load it on for me for free, took 15 min, talk to the service guys, not the spare parts guy.

Found a bunch more roads that map thinks are 50kms/h when in fact they are 80. Resulted in more misdirection which I ignored, which meant I arrived half an hour earlier than anticipated. Port stephens area of nsw.
As I didn't drive here with earlier maps I can't tell if this is newly introduced errors...

There is a setting where you can adjust the average speed used for calculations (Low Med High), it might help a little?
It'll be fighting against the defined speed though.

Also come on lads, make an .iso :P

Changing the trip speed can't alter the route calculation if roads have incorrect details. Only the arrival time.
When the roads have correct details the arrival time isn't too bad on country roads ie when no traffic considerations.

Hasn't fixed the zoom. My first RNS never had the problem with zoom. The second one was fine for a week then started to change randomly. Yesterday it went to 2k from turning off at 75m

I made a ISO file but google wont let me load it. Not sure if its the file or google. I've done all my ISO like this and they work normally.
