New in Map Merge for OziExplorer 1.21 (Jan 3, 2013)
- Added support to the purchased version to create Magellans RMP Image Maps for their Magellan GPS receivers which support them.
New in Map Merge for OziExplorer 1.20 (Jan 3, 2013)
- Map Merge can be licensed (purchased) to enable the merged maps to be saved in formats TIF, JP2, PNG, JPG, ECW (limited size) as well as OziExplorer's oxfx3 format.
New in Map Merge for OziExplorer 1.18 (Jan 3, 2013)
- Fixed issue where some maps were left out of the merge (blank spaces left in the created map).
- Some tweaking done to color reduction algorithum.
New in Map Merge for OziExplorer 1.16 (Jan 3, 2013)
- Mapmerge can now creates large format ozfx3 image files, the new large format ozfx3 images can be greater than 10GBytes in size.
- Improved map management to reduce memory requirements.
- Low memory use techniques implemented for png and jpg images.
- Made Vista and Windows 7 aware. Unfortunately this means the configuration for Vista and Windows 7 installations will be lost as the configuration files are stored in a different location.
New in Map Merge for OziExplorer 1.15 (Jan 3, 2013)
- Added support for New Zealand TM 2000 grid.
- Some minor fixes.
New in Map Merge for OziExplorer 1.14 (Jan 3, 2013)
- Fixed issue with maps calibrated in certain grids and using a datum other than wgs84 - the map display in mapmerge and the maps created had the map image displaced from its correct location.
New in Map Merge for OziExplorer 1.13 (Jan 3, 2013)
- Fixed issue with selected map area which is not drawn from the top left.
- Fixed some issues with missing maps (white areas) when merging many maps.
New in Map Merge for OziExplorer 1.12 (Jan 3, 2013)
- Many internal changes - please report any type of maps which do not merge, send maps to test with if possible.
- Faster again than version 1.11 when merging a large number of maps.
- Added support for reading ozf2 and ozfx3 maps. It is not necessarily a good idea to merge maps to ozfx3 and then merge the merged ozfx3 maps again, each time you merge maps quality may be lost.
- The 2GB limit on the temporary files has been fixed (there is now essentially no limit for these files). However the size of the completed ozfx3 file must be below 4GB.
- The previous version did not create the image thumbnails correctly for a couple of image types. If you have any map thumbnails which are just black or corrupted you will need to delete the thumbnails folder (in the System Files folder), the deleted thumbnails will be recreated.
