Changelog

Version 1.3

  • This version works with a filesystem.
  • This means that the maps can be added later. This gives me a lot of freedom. Besides that this version has already a few improvements such as manual scrollable maps. The program also detects if there is a DSerial card installed. If one is found things work normal. If not then DS-GPS goes into demo mode.

Version 1.1

  • Got adjustable zoomlevels and some neatly looking interface. things are coming to get together now. De maps are still pre-compiled in the ROM. The next fase will be figuring out how to setup a proper filesystem that will work.
    • The map tiles are coming from GoogleMaps and a special algorithm connects the longitude/latitude values to tiles numbers.
  • Because this requires special hardware and software (maps) there is no need to put up any ROM's on this site. For example I have all the tiles of my hometown (Rotterdam, Holland) at a zoomlevel of 2 and that already takes up 8 Mb.
