Bro floppy, last map that has SG is 1.22 but that's removed due to possible copyright related matters... Go http://www.malfreemaps.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=468&start=550...

Here is a routing error for v1.35.

Yuk Tong Avenue is one-way route along this stretch of road.
One cannot turn in from Chun Tin Rd, a no-entry sign is placed..
Notice that when I patronise Old Town Cafe.

Thanks! - OngCC

Was expecting a clean-up basic Sgp map, so was quite surprised to see the KPE is included . Well done Bro OngCC and the rest.

Just want to highlight the Bedok North Ave 3 exits/entrances to PIE are not in the map, also the Tanjong Rhu to Stadium link is not there.
Sorry as I do not have a good tracking device and this is not a demand, pls dont flame me !

Happy Lunar Ox Year to everyone

Can anyone teach me how do I use the *.GDB file to convert it into my GMXT POI?

Two ways of doing things here.

1st: Plugin your GPS device to your PC and start up Mapsource. Then load your GDB file and transfer the wanted POIs to your GMXT using Transfer>Send To Device

2nd: you can convert the GDB file directly to GPI file which is the POI file format for GMXT, using GPSBabel. Quite straight forward but lose the ability to choose POI that 1st method gives.

Yes, download GPSBabel from that site...

Make sure you run GPSBabelGUI and set your settings following the attached picture.

Thanks for your pic. I run the wrong file that why it look different.
Another problem now is after I convert the file to GPI. I copied it to my gamin poi folder but it does not show in my map. Even I did a search for my the location also unable to locate. may I know what had gone wrong? :-?
