.img to gpx

 

Hello,
Does anyone know of an easy program/convertor to switch .img to gpx to use in mapsource.
Thanks

I could be wrong ...

but I don't think you can decompile an img map into a gpx.

MapSource already

MapSource already understands .img files and gpx files. Just so we are on the same page .img files are maps and .gpx files are favorites, waypoints or custom POIs.

I think what you want to ask is how to import an .img file to MapSource. It is a bit messy , but there is tool that makes it easy.

Yes that's it .
I have some IMG files that i'd like to be able to work on in mapsource, but, mapsource won't open them.

I couldn't get img2ms to load in english and I also couldn't get it to work . Did I get the wrong one?

I have never used that tool

I have never used that tool but I have done them manually. Below is great site that goes through the details of making custom maps. The last section talks about manually editing the windows registry to add the maps to MapSource. See http://tinyurl.com/9hq4e

Page all the way down to:
"Open Regedit (START->RUN->REGEDIT)"

Please use caution when editing the windows registry. Please backup your registry since you could easy destroy your Windows OS.
