Yep. Pretty much how I do it... lower the detail level then increase it as I zoom in... PC is hanging in there, if it starts to make me crazy I’ll build something new and definitely will be SSD, and 16gb of RAM. Price of these gamer video cards can be daunting... on my current pc my video card was u ...

Jfheath, Great post, I really like the idea of adding mileage in front of a waypoint, via point. It will help jumping into a route if somehow you’ve turned it off, I’ve had other riders get way off track on long rides (that I sent them the route for) I.e. due to a detour and they had problems get ...

I had this on my XT recently. It was because I saved the route on my PC as a .GDB not a .GPX Interesting.. but I’m sure I posted route as .gpx I’ve gotten away from saving as .gdb as overall, most of my club is Gps clueless and sending in .gdb Format just throws another wrench into the confusion :lo ...

Omg, it’s still huge... you can’t believe money gamers spend. New top Of the line video cards... $3000. Crazy money spent

Has anyone made a desktop pc recently for handling BaseCamp? When in higher Detail, full map screen re-draws are graphics intensive and takes a bit of time. Has anyone recently built a pc with an upgraded graphics gaming card that really helped with screen draws? My current pc I have a Nvidia ...

Need help for a friend, he uses Mac version of BaseCamp, older zumo 660, and master reset has been performed (a few times) while trying to fix this issue. Newest mapset on his Mac and gps. So I created a route for an upcoming 2 day ride for our club. Route TO (Day 1) is 189 miles. I’ve imported the r ...

Michael, SUSS... Damn, this changes what I’ve been doing and always thinking (And teaching others) was a sacrosanct rule RE proper, clean route creation; that is ‘Shaping points at pure intersections‘. Youve Blown my mind, I’m gonna need time to process this. :D :D :lol: So, Michael do you go into pr ...

Kk, thanks. Your final paragraph explains why after I create a route and look at properties I see what basecamp calls POINTS, (I never entered those, and never understood that “count”) and I also see in properties my waypoints, etc. are called viapoints. (What I entered). Kk. Only been creating rou ...

lol, here we go with “nomenclature” ... what you’re calling shaping points I call viapoints, and what your calling viapoints to me are “Points of Interest“. Interesting and a good idea to place POI before the spot to give you time to slow down. My understanding , routes shaped by: 1.) WAYPOINT: not a ...

In the past, (say Mapsource years, older gps’s such as 550, 660) I religiously dropped via-points at true intersections (road and road), however with the newer generation of gps with the ability to set them to “not announce” on arrival (in BaseCamp), what Is everyone’s thoughts on the proper placeme ...
