There's absolutely nothing that will ever convert a BMP into an MDL file, because MDLs are actual 3D models, and you simply can't make them from a BMP. There is a program called "3D Object Converter for Windows" that can load some 3D files and convert them to iGO's MDL format, though. http://web.t-online.hu/karpo Thanks BorisM, I'll check this out too!

I'll be watching this since I have an '04 Lariat. I will also try to contribute. I'll see if I can get a top down photo of my baby.

nope, not really. Try entering 'fov=55' in your sys.txt in the debug section. This was found by someone else and seems to work well for me. You might want to play with the values depending on your zoom settings.

The signboard fix worked just like I thought it would. Thanks for all the help!

as far as i know tripcomputer problems cannot be caused by maps at all, no one has resolved this problem and no one has a clue how to, i have been using trip computer ever since and have not had any problem with the tripcomputer, this is i think a problem with either the unit or iGO itself, regarding the signboard, NAVTEQ maps don't have that much detail (signboard, speed limit signs, turn restrictions) as compared to teleatlas maps, well atleast here in canada, that's why the signboard is not showing up Agree with abb1, it has to be software releated since now is working fine with

sorry but i haven't looked at it yet, i'll let yo know as soon as i get around it no prob, no rush.

I'm using the Teleatlas maps, I'm going to try the Navteq shortly. The signs where there when I had skin #1. I'm going to try removing the fov=55 value to see if that did it.

IDT, try navigating from 7000 tylersviller rd. 45069 to 1623 dalton st. 45214 or anywhere in 45202. thanks, it should take you down I-75 and you should see plenty of exit signs.

IDT, I just noticed this morning that I'm not getting my highway sign notifications. I looked in the road sign screen and changed from signposts to roadsigns(or lane info?) a few times and they don't show up. I tried this with and without a route. In my sys.txt I still have the show_roadsign=1 value under debug. I also added fov=55 to it but I had that before and it did not kill the highway signs. thanks for any help.

FIXED, all links updated, now it should work as shown on the image on the first page Paypal sent. Thanks again!

The fuelcalc works like a charm in standard measurements. I did notice that if you press the clock while in a trip the tripcomp overwrites the street label on the bottom of the screen. If you press the altitude setting the tripcomp appears at the top of the screen. It can be at both places at the same time. Nothing bad, just feedback. Thanks again, I'll fire up paypal again soon!

Thanks, I'll let you know. As a side note my tripcomp started working again with this mod and it was pretty steady for a couple of trips then it stopped working. I was able to get it running again by deleting the saved routes or by entering a route then pulling up the tripcomp. It continued to work after I cancelled the route so I don't know which one affected it. It's too early to tell if this is worth anything but I figured I'd throw it out there, You probably don't want this to turn into a tripcomp thread so I'll resurrect one of the other ones if I'm on to something.

no prob, I probably won't even miss it after using it for a while.

Great work once again!! is there any way to convert the fuel calc to gallons? I can do the figurin' in my head but it makes my head hurt:-) This is my first shot at your 2nd skin, did you do away with transparencies for the buttons? thanks again!!

search for gpspara for instructions on how to delete the files. sometimes the files get corrupted and cause reboots like this. try this viewtopic.php?f=33&t=23558&hilit=gpspara This is the first place to start.
