While sometimes i am also busy with other things, i am not sleeping on Track@Way.

I am bitching with Nokia Qt SDK to produce a working release for MeeGo and Maemo. Its proving much more difficult than expected tough... i think i will take a few more time.

Anyway, Track@Way 1.1.0 should now be available (both supporter and free) from OVI store,... i hope!

Track@Way 1.1.0 is almost ready...

Ok guys... here are all the news about Track@Way 1.1.0 which will be released tomorrow (if no bugs are discovered today):

- Support for folder/multiple uploads
- Support for OZI Explorer ozfx3 and ozf2 raster map formats
- Improved zoom levels on the Tracking Table (16 levels, more detail and also more zoom-out)
- Minimum DOP set to 200 to avoid issues for some GPS devices
- Fixed the map_storage issue. Now you can put your maps there (even if its NOT recomended, its for caching only) safely.
- Removed annoying "save LiveTrack" dialog on livetrack start

Translations will need to be improved and corrected, as well as help, this will come in later releases.
I will also release an improved build for Android, still beta, due to Necessitas being still Alpha.

Getting ready for 1.1.0...


I decided to call the next release "1.1.0". This is because there is going to be two major features:
- Support for OziExplorer compressed map formats
- Support for importing entire folders of maps at once

Both features have been requested by many people...

Now, the first is already in place and working, just wait a bit until i fix the second one!

OziExplorer OZF map formats are now supported!

I have a piece of great news for you guys!

I have successfully added direct support for OziExplorer OZF2 and OZFX3 maps... So now you can load your maps directly.

This will be released in Track@Way 1.1.0 upcoming by this week!

Some news in the coming.

First of all, i am looking for a way to avoid the issue with placing maps inside map_storage...Second of all, i will add support for OZI maps (ozfx3 and ofzx2 files) thanks to the swampex library :)

I found out which is the most common error in using Track@Way: copying your maps to the map_storage folder!

Yes, its quite unclear and pretty confusing, but you user should NEVER mess with the map_storage folder. That is the folder where Track@Way will put your maps once you have loaded them... Not where you should copy your own maps.

I will write this as a sticky post on the forums and try to devise a better way to fix the issue... Any suggestions are welcome!

effemmeffe kindly pointed to a nasty bug which cause Track@Way to crash hard and made it unable to reopen again. Thanks!

Its very difficult to trigger, you actually need to provide Track@Way with a very broken calibrated map... Anyway, the fix is rolled and will ship with 1.0.1 mabe already tomorrow...

At the same time, i am trying again to push Track@Way for N900 and N9/N950 to OVI store... lets see if it will work this time!
