First homebrew vector MapViewer on psp

[j5l]

vmap psp 1.3

Intro

After a few month struggle, I let vector map (ESRI shapefile) working
on Sony Playstation Portable(1.5 or 3.x OEC). For font support, I
rewrite most code.
I name it vmap (which is the remix of vector and map) after my former
works on moby.cn website.

Features
. Any vector map format (ESRI shapefile only now, other format could
be tranfered to
it by Mapinfo or 3rd party tools).
. English and chinese font support, most dbf attribute information
could display.
. Configure file (config.txt) for customize map file for your self.
. PSP buttons control map explore and surfing
. a sample map (simple mexico map in ESRI shapefile format, which I got
from Internet)

To do list:
.Better GUI
.Perfmance
.Better i18n
.Truetype font
.GPS devices (Sony PSP-290 or Moby Cables with Holux GPS)

Top stuff! :)

Are you able to decompile commercial mapping software to use with it?
I am able to pull apart Garmin Mapsource. I'll take a look.
Cheers, Art.

Edit,,
After playing around I was able to load a map of my own country :)
Here's a site that provides free basemaps:

it's a shame there's no more documentation, but I'm keen to see what comes of it :)

Manage to convert local Garmin map to the format but it is too huge and the program fail to open .... the progam can handle the sample file but cannot load my converted map

anyone can load big map?

Any detail on how you converted Garmin?
I have my own created topographs in Garmin format that would be great to convert.
Maybe they are small enough.
