So there I was, cruising the internet looking for some hot new m̶i̶d̶g̶e̶t̶ ̶p̶o̶r̶n̶ STUFF RELEVANT TO MY INTERESTS when
I found this
(first result).
This appears to be someones stash of pirate software hosted on an FTP server. 'Oh cool', I thought when I found the gbr.pak (UK map) was around 10MB bigger than my current gbr.pak. Awesome! 10MB MOAR MAP! Alas this was not to be the case. Try as I might I could not make MM10 accept the map, I even went as far as chopping the header of my current teleatlas map and putting it on the bigger file (I think it is actually a monolithic file made of several smaller files).
Anyway after re-constucting my old setup I later on realised I had left the camera files from the new maps in with my old maps. The new camera file is around 10KB larger. There was also a '.nhs' file that came with it as well.
So, in conclusion...If you are using teleatlas maps (and quite possibly navteq, I think the '.cam' file is just a list of way points) you could potentially update your speedcamera database by using these .cam files on a country by country basis. I have and it all seems to work so far.
USING PIRATED WAREZ IS WRONG AND STEALING. IT IS IN NO WAY SIMILAR TO SELLING A PRODUCT THEN PULLING THE PLUG ON YOUR USERS WITHOUT WARNING. USERS WHO ARE SAVVY ENOUGH TO HAVE STOLEN YOUR SOFTWARE BUT BOUGHT IT ANYWAY TO SUPPORT YOUR COMPANY.
DO NOT USE FILES OR SOFTWARE YOU HAVE NO PAID FOR.
