I've just bought ozi-explorer and Great Desert Tracks on CD, how do you get the map image to come up in ozi-explorer, I can't seem to find how in the help. Thanks, 'the obvious idiot'.

Richard - The following assumes you have run and installed the Hema Desert Track CD .....Open OziExplore - then hit the "Load File Menu" button - select "Load Map File" - navigate to where the map file (calibration info not actual map image eg Great Desert Tracks - North Central.map ) is located (in my case after running Hema Desert Track CD map file data ended up here ...C:\Program Files\Hema\Great Desert Tracks\Maps - yours may be different). Double click required map file. Bingo should work. (may ask you to browse to location of actual image)

or you can get the calibration files for each map from here...

http://216.40.224.145/xtras/great_desert_tracks_mapfiles_setup.exe

Place these files in the Oziexplorer\Maps directory (or where ever you want) and follow instructions above.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Greg

Just found out [10 minutes later] installation of GDT doesn't copy map image files, had to do it manually... helps when you read everything.

I have the system installed on my laptop. Along with the Auslig maps I have loaded them all on the hard disk so I don't have to have the CD with me. Just make up a folder and copy them then redirect the search to that folder.
Cheers
