Optionally, under the "Options" tab, you have to select Palm or Pocket PC colors. You only need to do this once. QuakeMap remembers your selection next time. Optionally, under the "Options" tab, you can choose to compress the pdb file. This halves file size but decreases a map loading speed. Use this option only if you have limited memory on your device.

Open the Map Manager from the menu via File->Map Manager. Select the Card tab. Select the PDB file (usually in \mamaps)and click "Open PDB Map".

level zoom maps should be placed into a \mamaps directory on the Storage Card. You may then use the Map Manager to open individual 2-level zoom map PDB files.

No, because 8-level zoom maps replace 3-level zoom map PDBs. The main disadvantage of old 3-level zoom map PDBs was large file size and large free RAM requirements. 8-level zoom map technology fully solves the free RAM problem.

After selecting a 2-level zoom map PDB file, you can use the OpenPdbMap, RenamePdb, and DeletePdb buttons.

You can create a new user trackpoint database file (PDB) using the MapAdvisor menu option File->SaveTrackpointPDB and use it instead of the default usertrack.pdb.

You can create a new user waypoint database file (PDB) using the MapAdvisor menu option File->SaveWaypointPDB and use it instead of the default userwp.pdb.

You can import GPX files into MapAdvisor via QuakeMap to get waypoint information. However, geocache information obtained in this manner contains no logs. The geocache waypoints only have a short description and "last found" dates.

Because the entire 2-level zoom map PDB is loaded into memory, you should make sure you have about (map size + 2) MB of free RAM before loading a single PDB file map.

The left button allows you to draw a rectangle to zoom in to the map. You don't need to recenter the map, then zoom in, then recenter again, then zoom in again, and so on, but rather just zoom in to any point on the map highlighted by the rectangle.

To zoom in, choose the zoom in tool in the Map Toolbar. On the map, click the left mouse button once and hold it down. Drag the mouse to draw a box completely around the area of interest. Release the left mouse button. The map will redisplay at the extent of the area contained within the box. To zoom out, choose the zoom out tool in the Map Toolbar. On the map, click the left mouse button once and hold it down. Drag the mouse to draw a box.

You can click the arrows in the upper right corner of the screen, or use the PAGE UP / PAGE DOWN keys. Zooming in to the maximum resolution allows you to see other ships as they move around the map. Some are human. Others are AI.

Open the Map Manager from the menu via File->Map Manager. Select the Card tab. Select the directory which contains your maps (either \mamaps8 or a subdirectory of \mamaps8). Click "Open Zoom8 Map Directory".

Try this in the meantime: View your activity in the Analyzer (this tab is found in upper right when viewing activity)

Yes, in VZ Navigator, you can pan the map by pressing the Navigation Key up, down, left or right. You can zoom into the map by pressing the OK button, then scrolling left or right to the appropriate zoom level and pressing OK again.

When using downloaded maps, there is a restriction of four regions joined together in one file. This means that you can have at most four rectangular regions of detailed coverage. Mapsend can normally load only 1 map. Here is a technique to get around this limitation: First, create and download a map to your SD card in the card reader/writer as usual. This map will normally be named "detail 00.img".
