[closed] OSM Outdoors map created using MOBAC not working...

I created a *.bsh file to display thunderforest.com/outdoors maps in MOBAC (see attached). Thanks for the tip received in this forum as to how to do this!

Everything seems to be working as it should:
- the map is displayed correctly in MOBAC (v1.9.16)
- I can select the region required.
- I can create an AQM map file of the selected region.

I have done this many times before with other map sources, so I am confident that I do this correctly.

However, when I try to select the map in AQ (latest version), nothing is displayed - just a blank... I have tried this with several maps created, but with the same results. The only time I managed to create AND SEE a map was when, for testing purposes, I created a really tiny map (i.e. approx. 100m x 100m).


Any idea what is going wrong?

I just tried a test thunderforest cycle map (about 10km square) and it worked perfectly in AQ. I know that this doesn't help you, but it shows that the bsh file templates work and that the AQM file produced by MOBAC is ok.

Hi and sorry for the delay.
What is the size of the .AQM map file created by MOBAC? You can check this using your usual file explorer on your Android device.
If it's a small size (under 1MB or so), then be sure to correctly select the wanted area and zoom levels to store in MOBAC.
Let me know

No idea what was going on, but I tried it again, and now everything seems to be working as it should...

Thanks a lot anyway!
