It just has to be a bug, and not something intentional. But the problem with not being able to send maps to the GPS is outrageous. They probably think Basecamp is already "good enough", and I don't really disagree. I think we are just seeing Garmin adapt to a rapidly changing market and allocate their resources to maximize profit. At least Garmin has been better at that, I haven't heard any serious complaints from people with older automotive devices. TomTom and Magellan have angered a lot of people by dropping lifetime map subscriptions. So I suppose this is another reason why they might push everyone to a web portal in the future. Garmin promised to upgrade Basecamp to 64 bit in 2018, but it never happened. Basecamp is a 32-bit application, and the next version of MacOS (due in the fall of 2019) won't support 32-bit apps.

I always assumed this was just a bug that would quickly be fixed, but it's been 7 months now and since they've abandoned Basecamp, I guess they will never fix it.Īnd there is a special concern for Mac users. The only solution is to downgrade to an old version of Basecamp or use Mapsource.

There are tons of threads about this problem on the GPSFileDepot forums from confused users who can't install maps. My solution is to offer a separate download of the map file to install on the GPS, avoiding the use of Garmin's software. So you can't send a third party map to your device now, like the maps at GPSFileDepot or my maps. When you try, everything seems to work OK, but when you look at the map on the GPS, it has no detail. This is bad news, because the current version of Basecamp/MapInstall cannot send maps to your GPS. But with Basecamp discontinued, it seems like this is their new solution. Their new inReach units and the GPSMap 66 (their newest handheld) are the only current devices that can use the portal now. It appears they will begin pushing people to a web portal to manage their GPS devices, as described in that article. "BaseCamp development has been discontinued." There has been a widespread rumor that Garmin stopped developing Basecamp, and now they have officially stated it - see this:

Trying to open in 2D, I get virtually the same error as before:Ĭ:\Program Files (x86)\Garmin\BaseCamp\BaseCamp.exe I assume that it is backward compatible with Open GL 1.3. My Intel HD Graphics 520 shows drivers up to date in device manager and the chart shows that it is Open GL 4.4.

You need the quote marks because of the spaces in the file names "C:\Program Files (x86)\Garmin\BaseCamp\BaseCamp.exe" /Disable3D

You might try starting Basecamp in 2D mode. The VB drivers supplied by Oracle do not meet the specs but I am able to run Basecamp in 2D mode only. I run Win 10 Pro in a VirtualBox virtual machine on my iMac. It hasn't happened in my case so I have no actual first hand experience with that problem. There have been many complaints from Win 10 users that during an upgrade Win 10 "throws away" previously installed video drivers from the computer manufacturer and then reinstalls downlevel drivers from Microsoft. I think I would look at the video drivers and check to be certain that the driver presently installed is in fact Open GL 1.3 compatible. Graphics Drivers and Open GL Compatibility
