I have created a .map file and when I put it in the location /mnt/sdcard/Locus/mapsVector i am getting and error:
Problem with File 'mymap.map'!
FileOpenResult [success=false, errorMessage=invalid magic byte: # Map file created f]
I have tried a map that I downloaded from locusvectormaps "new_york.osm.map" and this .map file does work.
Any ideas?

I tried making the kml...But when I try to import it into Locus, I get the following error:
Problem with file "Locus.kml"
Problem with file "Locus.kml"
Is there anyway to attach a file here so you can check it out?
Any help with this would be great.

Hello Nick,
Some tips from my site:
- As Menion wrote Locus is limited with handling of complex KML files. Is it possible to split SHP files into smaller parts before you convert them into KML files?
- Problem with file "Locus.kml” Locus supports almost all KML features. Please try to open problematic KML file in Google Earth and check if this file is opened properly.
- Unfortunately there is no way how to attach file to this topic. This is limitation of GetSatisfaction service.
- My favorite service for sharing files is http://sharegadget.com/ You can attach problematic KML files – I’ll check it.

Hey Petr I have uploaded a .shp file in a zip at the following location using the service you recommended:
http://mysharegadget.com/786008826
Could you please let me know if you are able to convert this successfully to a .map.
Thanks.

Hi Nick,
Is it possible to convert your SHP into map file. Converted file with XML definition files and style is placed in file: http://mysharegadget.com/162518213
COnverted map as overlay

When I try to add the .map file you provided to locus as an overlay I get a message saying:
"One vector file at a time or something like that."
"One vector file at a time or something like that."
Any ideas?

Locus is not able to set two vector maps as overlay. Please turn-off previous vector map which you use for overlay (Menu > More > Map overlay). Then select as base map arbitrary online or personal map. Run again map overlay function and select generated vector map.
Can I use a vector map as a base map?
Petr Voldan, Employee
Yes, you can.

Hello Nick,
As you could see, is it possible to convert your SHP file into vector *.map format. So issue is not related with Locus.
If you still have some problem with generating own vector map, please visit official Mapsforge community site:

On this forum you can directly contact developer of Mapsforge library and map
writer plugin for osmosis. I hope that they will be able to find out more about your issue.
