Using perl for Windows, I personally like ActivePerl...

HOW TO DOWNLOAD MAPS GUIDE :

1. Download and install active perl
Code:
http://www.activestate.com/Products/activeperl/
2 . Download wget
Code:
http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/#downloading
3. Download the perl script (MapTileCacher.perl) from here
http://forum.mgmaps.com/viewtopic.ph...bcdb06e5eb8b57

4. Rename the script from .perl to .pl

5. open maps.google.com and search for the place whose map you want

6.click on the "link to this page" link (top right)

7 save the link it'll be something like this

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...hi&ie=UTF8&ll=28.076827,78.104553&spn=0.502843,0.933838&z=10&om=1

now u have the starting coordinates( in bold) and the zoom level (in red)

8 move the map so that the end of the map is at the top left of the page (to get the ending coordinates)


9 Run the script (doule click)

10 select the map type

11 enter the values u just got (coordinates, zoom level)

a folder MGmapscache will be created

(keep the script and wget in the same folder )

thats it..

how do i view the maps i have stored in the cache??

i have selected the offline mode and saved maps. if i search for anything it still tries to connect using GPRS
Search uses the GPRS even in offline mode.
Searching works only in online mode, but with the offline mode enabled, the search only retrieves the coordinates of the location you searched and the software you show the downloaded tiles.
I download the map,set the path,but it does not work?

Huum I saw there are a lot of questions and I'm adding mine

Does Google Maps is working like a GPS software (Destinator for example ?)

or just it shows you where is the street you want to see ( for me the last deatures is unusual)


thank you ^^

that's because wget is not installed in your system
