Viewing Malfreemaps in Windows PC

[zerko]

Other than using Mapsource, is there any other Windows PC compatible to view Malfreemaps ?
Prevously (inthe old days :-)) I used Mapking PC version to preplan my trip from the PC but there is no longer any update for Mapking PC version :-(

Please recommend a Windows PC software to "preplan" a trip. I don't like Mapsource as the maps don't look good on PC.
Appreciate your assistance....

As to my knowledge, MFM never made one available for MapKing.

Your best bet is still to use Garmin Mapsource or its replacement Garmin BaseCamp

Since I joint MFM I have installed the Garmin Mapsource to my personel PC and office PC it is easier for me to locate or search any road name before I travel to attend customer's complaint. The maps also can always be updated to the latest maps instead of using others ie. Google maps where the maps is not updated for few years.

Thanks... In the "old days" I used the Mapking Maps PC version from Malsingmaps. It has not been updated since 2010 :-(
I liked the Mapking PC interface as it is easier to view, quick and simple.
Thanks for pointing out the 4 options above. Last question -
Which is easier/nicer to view (many years ago I tried Mapsource and not only was the program slow the roads were thin lines) ? (will save me time from installing all)
Thanks again.

Your question is hard to answer. Attend the GG and you may see various options installed in other people's PC to gauge your level of competency in a particular software / graphics taste etc... there is a saying ... one man's food is another's poison

I myself is a mapsource / basecamp user and I find nothing slow or graphics display that is negative to me.

I still find Mapsource the most friendly and FAST... your PC needs some upgrading... but, it won't display gmapsupp.img file without some work.... actually a lot of work...

To view image (img) files... Garmin Mobile PC is the easiest....

hmmm.... time for me to try Basecamp... hope bro SB will show me how... Beer on me!

Hope this helps.

It is not that difficult to get .img files to display in mapsource. I make use of 2 programs. You only need to know what you are doing. Need a bit of effort to read up and try out. Most important not faint hart as you may need to fix your registry if mapsource gets corrupted. The rewards are you get to display asian OSA mps on mapsource and if you get a licence mapedit,(for Google overlay) you will be able to fill in the gaps and get a good working map to places where none have been!
