MM the way forward?

**geeky_hawkes** · 06-03-2006, 02:29 PM

Hi guys im new here, but after plenty of hours searching and reading i thought map monkey was for me as my gps solution. Thing is, after loads of searching both google and here all i have found is a load of confused and broken links mentioning the SDk for destinator, but no 1 simple link i can legally purchase and download this software.

Bascially im wondering how much i should be paying for this sdk and uk maps, and if destinaotr / MM is now the best way forward...

Thanks guys

Also guys, UK type question really, how do satnav programs like this work with traffic master? I have seen gps aerials with an extra TMC areial, but not sure if i still need a subscription to traffic master?

1.try freedrive, it's still being updated whereas Ninja (Map Monleys author) seems to be on a hiatus.

2. Traffic master does not inteface with out GPS programs at the moment. I did ask them a while back but they had no plans to do so, although that may have changed since I asked.

Thanks, im not too concerned about traffic master, i just wont spend the cash on a gps reciever with it built in in that case. I will go and have a look at freedirve thanks

Freedrive looks good, but its still giving me the same problem, where can i legally download destinator 3 sdk and how much should i pay for it.

Also guessing i need to buy extra maps? Thanks (im sure its a stuipid question but after SEARCHING i only found broken/confused links.... )

If you purchase the PDA vesrion of destinator 3 (very difficult now) and copy the maps over to the map directory on your C:\destinator folder

You can purchase the destinator PN version and copy those ,aps but you need to do a bit of tweeking . search for references to PN maps on the forum.
