MapSend WorldWide BaseMap Patch v1.30
Posted by Matthieu under: GPS
I’ve just reinstalled my computer recently and I was trying to make my Magellan MapSend Worldwide software work with my eXplorist 400… without any luck, until I realized I had it patched before. The problem is that Magellan’s website doesn’t have the patch available anymore 
Luckily I found it on this site
I decided to make it available as well in case it becomes unavailable at www.nextdestination.com.au.
Here is the decription of this patch:
MapSend WorldWide BaseMap Patch 1.30. This patch adds the ablility to make WorldWide BaseMap regions for eXplorist 210, 400, 500, 600 and XL GPS receivers and it fixes issues with XP Service Pack 2 for any owner of WWBM versions prior to v1.10.

Paul, I’ve been pretty happy with my Magellan hardware so far (~3 years old hand held, just starting to have issue with the battery), but I have to admit their software support has been pretty poor.
Installing their new software (which is recommended by Magellan) broke the Europe and US street map and I was unable to generate new maps anymore. And un-installing did not solve the problem… only when I reformatted my PC I was able to successfully re-install the old Magellan maps.
I will probably try another brand when my GPS dies, even though I wouldn’t say I’m unhappy with my eXplorist.

I have a 400 and would like to get base maps for europe(Germany) as I am going there next month to cycle for 5 weeks. How and where do I look?
