In the software section there's a new tool to make calling mkgmap a little easier - you can select the files you want using a normal file selection gui, and then press the button to call mkgmap. This file must be in a directory called Garmin on the SD-card (so the full path is Garmin/gmapsupp. Unfortunately I don't know of a cure for this, except for regenerating the img files with mkgmap and specifying a different map number for each. If this doesn't work for you, and the resulting combined img file only contains one of the source files, then it could be because the img files that you're trying to combine have the same map number inside them.
Name is not important for nuvi but file gmapsupp.img can be overwritten by Mapsource and file gmapprom.img can be overwritten by Garmin update. You need basemap.img and at least one of other maps. Garmin gmapsupp.img - this is map installed by Mapsource. This creates a single new file called gmapsupp.img containing the five island files which can then be copied to the GPS receiver as before.

To combine multiple img files into one gmapsupp.img file, simply call the mkgmap program like this: java -jar mkgmap.jar -gmapsupp corsica.img cyprus.img mallorca.img malta.img tenerife.img Put this jar file somewhere easily findable from the console. The previous GMAPSUPP.IMG file will be overwritten. Check where your GPS stores detail maps (GMAPSUPP.IMG file) and load your file into this directory.
Then disconnect the USB cable and wait until GPS restarts and reads the maps.

Here you will get either a zip or a tar.gz file, and from these you need to extract the single jar file (called mkgmap.jar). Use Windows Explorer or any file manager software to copy your GMAPSUPP.IMG file to GARMIN folder in the GPS. Fortunately this is very easy using a free java tool called Mkgmap.įirstly download the mkgmap program from the mkgmap download page. Instead, they have to be merged into a single img file. If the map image file is always called gmapsupp.img, then you can't just copy a bunch of img files onto the unit to see them all at once.
