BorisM Posted December 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Added to the first post: Updated setting file that should properly control building visibility settings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
forbitel Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 Boris, I tried the new setting file replacing the ui files on your 2.0 files. it showed a new menu under setting that allows changing the setting of building visibility as expected. however, I could not notice any difference, it seems to have not effect (unless i'm looking the wrong thing) i was expecting to get buildings to show in addition to the common 3d landmarks. I installed the maps 2008.4 NA on my avic and I have the same maps on my IGO8 on my PDA, the PDA show a lot o buildings on Cleveland, but the AVIC only show the 3d landmarks not the buildings. Do i expect to see the buildings with this mod? Do I need to do any other mod to show the buildings? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BorisM Posted December 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 Did you copy the (hacked) EzRider executable and 3DC files for your location? There's a thread about adding 3D buildings somewhere here... but basically Pioneer only gave us Landmark files but not buildings so you need to add them yourself.

forbitel Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 Boris, 1st wow... thanks for the quick response... 2nd, yes, i installed the hacked ezrider and a new set of maps 2008.4 NA, this includes maps, pois, and buildings (3dl landmarks and 3dc buildings). i made sure that there are 3dl and 3dc files for Ohio. also checked the sys.txt and it contains: [debug] enable_buildings=1 Any idea? By the way i own a 90BT, i don't know if it makes any difference Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BorisM Posted December 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 This should be all that is needed... Have you tried changing color schemes? Some of them (particulatly day ones) make seeing building difficult... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kerosene Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Boris, is the latest update all you have done since you sent me the entire zip? I'm trying to go back to original... the shortcuts are really pointless. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

forbitel Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Boris, I finally managed to get the 3d city buildings to show (*.3dc) i was just missing the right license file... anyways... now that i can see the buildings, i noticed that the unit is rendering only the 3d models not the textures (i mean, only 3d transparent blocks). On my PDA version the buildings get transparent only when you are close to them (so you are able to see the roads behind) but other buildings are rendered with their proper texture (showing buildings with windows, and other details) any idea of how to get the unit to display the textures in the building? i tried with "use_all_building_textures=1" under the [3d] section of the sys.txt with not luck. any ideas? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cigga24 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 In f900 US version are 3d buildings on by default? Is there a list of cities that have 3d buildings enabled? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BorisM Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Posted my latest data.zip. I would not advise using speedcam files from this one, as they have russian spoken warnings instead of default beeps... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kerosene Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 these are just the edited files, correct? I guess I'll have to change to a eng warning system. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BorisM Posted January 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 these are just the edited files, correct? I guess I'll have to change to a eng warning system. All the UI files, actually, from ui subfolders. They are all at least a bit cleaned up... English warnings should not be all the difficult, actually. It needs a set of audio files I did not include, but I can set you up with English ones... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
