Update Filters

Please read the whole page before continuing.

These MapMate patches update stock queries only in the Filters table. They do not affect user-created filters.

You MUST ABSOLUTELY take a system backup via the replicator, or at the very least make a copy of your "User" file in your My MapMate\Data\User folder before running these patches. If you choose to copy the User file to "User - Copy", it will be easy to revert it back to "User", if required.
