Files to Copy

All available files are included in the ZIP folder, and must be placed into the correct folders:

1. All files with GDC extension are to be copied to the main Mapping folder (not in any sub-folder)

a. These files can be edited in a text editor to specify the filename to be used if multiple options exist across a region

2. All files with GSB extension are to be copied to:

a. \Mapping\Germany\

3. If additional or new GSB files are obtained from another source, edit the GDC file to point to the correct filename. Also if multiple files are available, make sure the GDC file is pointing towards the correct GSB file.
