Mapsi v4.0.0 is now available for N900, N9/N950 and for Windows.

Changes
- Support for EPSG:900913
- Bug fixes and some other minor features

N900 version
v4.0.0 for N900 is available here.

Installation
1. Install latest Qt Mobility 1.2 libraries. If you have extras-devel repository enabled you can install those with "apt-get install libqtm-12=1:1.2.0+git20111104-0nd~fremantle5" or if you don't you can download libraries from here (and install with "dpkg -i libqtm-12_1.2.0+git20111104-0nd~fremantle5_armel.deb").
2. Download .deb file from the link above and install it.
3. Copy WMS settings (wms_settings.ini) and map settings (map_settings.ini) files (attached to this post is example settings files, remove .txt extension) to '/home/user/MyDocs/.mapsi' directory (if you connect N900 to computer using mass storage mode that directory is '.mapsi' in root)


N9/N950 version
v4.0.0 for N9/N950 is available here.

Installation
1. Install .deb file from the link above.
2. Copy WMS settings (wms_settings.ini) and map settings (map_settings.ini) files (attached to this post is example settings files, remove .txt extension) to '/home/user/MyDocs/.mapsi' directory (if you connect N9 to computer using mass storage mode that directory is '.mapsi' in root)


Windows version
v4.0.0 for Windows is available here.

Installation
1. Download file from the link above and unzip it to directory with no white spaces in it (e.g. to "c:\").
2. Make 'data' directory in Mapsi-v4.0.0 directory and copy WMS settings (wms_settings.ini) and map settings (map_settings.ini) files (attached to this post is example settings files, remove .txt extension) to that directory.


For existing users
New database format
v4.0.0 has new map tile database format and old database files won't work anymore. If you want to use your old database follow these steps (I suggest using Windows version 'cause this requires quite a lot of memory and free space)
1. Rename your old WMS settings file to 'wms_settings.ini-old' and your database file to 'wms.db-old'
2. Run Mapsi and now it should start creating new database to 'wms.db-new' file.
3. Wait (this may take up to ten minutes). There's no window showing status of the new database creation but you can check that 'wms.db-new' file size increases to make sure it's working. When new database is ready window should appear saying that it's done.
4. Rename 'wms.db-new' to 'wms.db' and remove 'wms.db-old' (if 'wms.db-old' and 'wms.db-new' don't have almost same file size, there probably have been some errors creating new database and in that case you might not want to delete 'wms.db-old')

New WMS settings format
Also WMS settings file format has changed in v4.0.0 (and now there's own settings file for maps) but old WMS setting files still work(those are automatically converted to new format).


Example WMS and map settings files that are attached to this post use World OSM WMS.
