MFM-Garmin 111024
Mfm Poi 111024
Mfm Poi 111024
Malsingmaps Malasia/Singapore/Brunei NT 2011.30
City Navigator Singapore/Malaysia NT 2011.40

I have followed the instruction on this site to installed the new MFM map (111219) via MFM installer and the gmapsupp.img is successfully generated. I then renamed this file to gmapsuppMFM.img and manually copied it to the SD card(16GB MicroSDHC) /map folder. After i boot up the GPS, this new map is not available for selection , any idea ?

Thanks in advance.

Malfreemaps.com was established in 2008; how can this thread have started in 2005?

Anyway, as far as I can tell, the content has definitely changed but the general installation process has not changed since the time this guide was written.

Close Mapsource before you do the installation.
Upload your contribution to MFM drop box if you don't want others to take your contributed tracklogs or POIs.

Something is preventing the installer from writing files into temp directory.
You need to debug to find out why starting with cleaning what virus has infected your lappy
