mfm has grown a little too fast and too big.
Is it possible to split by countries ?
Example, when you want to generate map during installation, you get to pick business poi, chinese poi.
I understand they are just another set of maps.
So is it possible, in addition, to list the countries like those POI and let us tick what we want or need ?
Some of us don't leave a certain country, so having all those countries compiled is not very useful.
Example, I'm at northern part of SG.
I want to go to Jalan Belangkas, just 12km south.
I key in spell name, and type "belangkas".
It shows Jl Belangkas, 12km south.
It also shows Jl Belangkas, 302km north-west, somewhere in MY.
Now I don't need to know Jl Belangkas, 300km away.
If I can remove MY during compilation, the gps rx wouldn't have spent a lot of time searching through the whole map.

You can always use Mapsource to select whichever areas you need and send to your device.
Upload your contribution to MFM drop box if you don't want others to take your contributed tracklogs or POIs.

Thanks.
I did try using mapsource, but it's a bit of trouble and I'm not sure I got all the right maps.
May I know the meaning of some of the maps ?

Re: mfm by country selection
Thanks for the replies. 
I posted in Project Room in the hope that country selection could be a feature that can help those who do not want the trouble of going through Mapsource or even have/know how to use it.
It would require some programming skills to alter the installation program which I understand is work.
Really appreciate your attn.
