Olaf to Garmin Nuvi 265
 

As read in CS books, the "Olaf" maps look very useful, but being a part time ludite, I'm struggling to get them put on to the SD card on a Garmin Nuvi. I can't get the map to feature on Garmin Basecamp, Garmin Map install opens the tiles but doesn't install them on the device - I seem to be going round in circles (without a map!)
Can anyone offer help - leaving tomorrow am and would like to suss before.
Thanks in anticipation

Hi Russ, is that you I met in Taliouine and Tata ?

In Bertrands absence he sent a private message containing an way of installing Olaf onto the gps unit. Sure he'll be along in a bit to provide more. Once I'm back home I'll see if I can find out how I did it. Memory/tech obviously failed me when I tried for you in Tata.

Trust the rest of you trip went well without too many mutinies lol

Cheers Mark

Hi Mark, yes it is me, yes the trip went well in the main, for our first time.
Got to say we loved Morocco, but I need to get the mapping sorted for next time, what was that other system that the French people in Tata was using? I think you had it as well?
stay in touch you have my email still?
Russ

got your email somewhere in the truck still got to unload/unpack

I didn't speak to the French group but recall you mentioning their system, was it the maps or the gps unit?. I use OSM maps with Olaf. Theres a useful sticky in this forum about using and installing OSM, very simple. I actually have 2 profiles on my Montana set up, one using osm and the other Olaf then I can easily switch between the two. You can enable both maps under one profile but I found it confused the routing (OSM is routable and will give turn but turn directions but Olaf isn't
