Melway Map Colour Scheme

Hey all,

Just thought I would show you guys something i’ve whipped up tonight. I found out how to edit the map colour schemes and I’ve altered some colours to make it look a bit like that famous street directory!

Will need some tweaks but you can see the results here with this screen capture taken near Chadstone in Melbourne:

I downloaded a Mac/PC program called DiskAid which I hooked my iPhone up to, was able to browse the internals of the Waze App and alter the text “schema” file with different colours. Other threads on here go into this in more detail but it’s fairly straightforward. I simply overwrote one of the existing schema files with this code:
