Any idea how do i use Gmaptool to convert gmapsupp.img to view map in mapource ?


It can be done now.... split the maps for Mapsource (select For Mapsource in the Split menu) and you can send it to Mapsource... Hope this helps... Cheers!

Maybe there was some error when splitting, always check the logs to verify everything is in order. Anyway, there are some problematic IMGs which will result in error while trying to split using GMapTool. What I did was to extract the IMG using GPSdaemon, repack using GMapTool, and finally split using GMapTool. Sometimes there are files to skip when repacking (combine), and I also found out that at least with 1 IMG, some splitted IMGs names need to be shorten (using GMapTool's Write feature).

try the split using gpsdaemon and join and split using gmaptool, same error occur.

Compiling preview map.
'cgpsmapper' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
File missing: mapset.img, aborting install.

Guess the below method is beyond my knowledge to carry out.

You need to set the cgpsmapper program path in Gmaptool. Or copy this file to the same directory of the splited maps. Hope this helps... cheers!

To illustrate Bro Moey's advice here's a screenshot of GMapTool's option page:
