pwnin o'brien Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Gortok, I just tried your solution with no luck. I highlighted the folders/files in the DATA folder and compressed to DATA.zip and tried it on the unit. I'm having the same problem as before except now my Top Menu screen goes blank after about two seconds and the system loading message stays on the screen. I feel like such an idiot.

Make sure you can get back into test mode and undo any changes you made, thats top priority. Then figure out what you did wrong on your computer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
keeper22 Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 I figure I should post something on here because I have taken so much info from you guys. These are what I am using for my nav screen. They are photos of my truck that I tweaked a bit. So anyone with an F-150 or I guess if you just want a truck on your screen feel free to use these I am using the first one for 2d and the second image for 3d in case you could not tell.

cigga24 Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 I dont have photoshop but if i take a picture of my altima can someone edit it for me? Also i'm in the process of adding BorisM's current scripts and in it is a folder called ui_pioneer/common can i just add the two bmp into this folder and copy them to myflash/apl2/igo instead of unzipping/rezipping data.zip?

BorisM Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 yes, that should work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cigga24 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 can someone please icon my car for me, its a black 07 altima. couldnt get vertical but got as high as i could. IMG_1821.JPG.zip Quote Link to post Share on other sites
coachzenn Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Ok, so I got all the code to work, but I have a problem with the image. As soon as I save it as a bmp from photoshop, it adds a square white background on my image, making it look very dumb on my screen lol. What I did, is I took a pic of my car, lassoed the car only, inverted selection, deleted everything else, inverted again, copied the car, and pasted it into a new file with a "transparent background". It appears to work, until I save it. Ideas? EDIT: I added an "alpha channel" whatever that means, made its opacity 0%, and now the image is completely invisible when it pulls it up in the AVIC EDIT2: Got it! I just kept retrying until it worked. Sweet mod. Thanks to all involved! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cigga24 Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 after getting the car with pen tool, how do u invert the selection? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
coachzenn Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 after getting the car with pen tool, how do u invert the selection? I couldn't find it in the menus but friendly Google told me that ctrl+shift+I is the hotkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
coachzenn Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Here is a sample of it working. Just need some photoshop skills. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gpollacchi Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 I noticed that some had changed the green/blue box. But it does not seem to be a .bmp I think is part of coding… right. Could something like this be done? http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic. ... c&start=45 (Updated to the right thread) Sorry. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skicrave Posted October 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 This really is the wrong thread to address those questions in, but sure, that could be done. You would just need to create those graphic files, and then add the calls for them in the skin file. I'm not sure what the battery is supposed to indicate though, so that one may be more difficult to accomplish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BorisM Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Battery would simply show the battery charge status, so for anything other than F-500 it would be a moot point. For 700-900-90 it would make more sense to show the GPS status (which can be accomplished with one line in navigatemap_800_400.ui) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
braddman Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 How big does the image need to be when we save it in Photoshop? I didn't see that mentioned anywhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
