anyone else getting corrupt or broken files when extracting from megaupload?
The 13th file is named wrong. Dont know why it would matter, i use Extract Now, and it wouldnt extract either. Just look at the file names and youll see whats wrong with #13. Renamed it and it worked.
Actually I am having a couple eror messages in the first couple parts. Not sure what all files are supposed to be in there. I guess I'll download all the files, install and see what happens.
Before i go and update my maps to this version - can someone look up a address for me to see if its in there that is running 2008.4??????
Let me know if you can
I'm going to go try to load them right now. I'll post back with the results.
Just tried it and same results. So i guess i need the EZRider thing?

Yeah, you need all of them. I couldnt extract anything until i had them all DL'ed and correctly renamed file 13.
Are you talking about the underscores? And even though it has folders for buildings and poi, these are empty?
And another interesting thought. I looked in the back up folder I had, all the maps were modified on 4/2008. When looking on my deck, the map version says 7/2007. The ones I am downloading now say 6/2008. Is it really worth it to download and install? Why would my version be differnt on the deck, yet the maps be modded on 4/2008?
I successfully loaded the new maps, poi's, and buildings for the igo8.0 originally loaded on the unit.
The maps from this thread actually show up as 2008.04 but have a newer date than the 2008.1 maps.
There were two license files that I included, The one originally from CMH's installer and from the ir.zip file I posted the link to earlier. What I did was use the auto installer from CMH using test mode to install everything. This way it all went to the correct places with zero screen clicks involved. I haven't driven anywhere yet, but I'm going to assume it's working because it showed me on the map and the surrounding roads.

Can you link me to the other license file?

Yes on the underscore. No, those folders shouldnt be empty.

Nevermind. I found it. I dont want all those mods he has. You think if i add that EZRider file you posted above would solve my problems?

Thanks, I am extracting as they finish, I'll see if extracting them once they are all done solves that problem.

I've attached CMH928's EZrider.exe file. I'm not sure if that is your missing link or not. I'm also not sure what exactly will change if you just add it. I guess it's worth a shot but back up your original first.
EDIT: For some reason it isn't liking the file. But you can grab it from his thread.
Yeah I got it. Looking at it, it seem to be the same one you posted earlier. Also, his maps look newer(or atleast have a newer date). Are they newer then the ones you posted?

Yea, like i said, i couldnt extract anything until i had them all DL'ed and corrected the underscore on #13.
all you have to do is have the 3d buildings files placed in the content buildings folder and that license you mentioned before works for me along with the hacked ezrider. you dont need anything else from his files. also you might not see 3d buildings because there are none in your area. try a simulation run in the center of a city and you should see 3d buildings.

That must have been where CMH928 got his from, or vice versa. And slothy was the one who posted the map links.. CMH didn't include new maps, just building files. Is that what you are talking about? I didn't even check if his buildings were more up to date...oops.
EDIT: I am officially confused at which building files are the most current. Is it safe to assume the larger the folder the "newer" the files? I'm from Michigan and the dates are all different... with CMH928's being the newest with a date of 1/4/09 but this could just be when they were introduced, not the actual date of the building file. I don't know... I'm confused 
2002bluewrx - i'm from MICHIGAN here too! i used the 2008.4 maps and somewhere i found newer pio's (or atleast i think they were newer by file size) - gota remember where i found them now lol.
Hey,
You guys think this is the same maps?

It's 1.6gb. I am downloading now. What should I look for?

So you probably got spoiled with warm weather and then snow all of a sudden earlier this week too?
I've got newer POI's as well that were downloaded seperately from somewhere. I would also assume that bigger file size probably means new files. (they are adding more businesses) However, I can't figure out how to check the POI file version or date on the head unit. All you can check are maps.

I do not think those are the right maps... They look like they are for some ebay brand head unit.
Alright. Going to try the EZrider file now. Everyone cross your fingers for me.
Where did you get those new POIs from? Can you guys provide a link where to download the new POIs from? Thanks in advance.
hrmmm those might be, ill check when i get home - i remember seeing telatlas in the version number.

Thanks man much appreciation for that link. However, would you know why some of the POI do not work. Like for instance I am living in Arizona and whenever I try to search for a POI I get one like 100 miles away in New Mexico.
(I have only updated my Arizona Map to the new 2008 map from the old 2007 maps).
WOOHOO! EZRider was the trick. Also added the building file from CMH's zip. Will have to drive around a bit to see if everything is working completely. Also GTIMatt updated his mod so have to add that too.
