abb1 Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Hi, I am a newb! I got a few questions. Right now all I have is the Red Theme as far as hacks are concerned. I have the original firmware, I believe it is 2.0. 1) Is this hack for version 3.0 or will it work on my 2,0 firmware? 2) Do I need just the three files as there are so many, IDT_3.0v4.3_EU, IDT_3.0v4.3_MSN, IDT_3.0v4.3 3) Will this mess up my Red Theme? Sorry, these are probably stupid questions, but 68 pages is too much to read, Thanks, Andy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ovalball Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Hi IDT.Regarding reboot and speed cameras.Yesterday I did a journey of about 70 miles.Once during the trip the unit suddenly went onto the start up screen and remained there for ages.Funny thing though it continued to give verbal instructions for the route.Then without me touching a thing it started working ok and was fine for the rest of the journey.Thanks again for the mod it is truly awesome.

sl33p3r Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Thanks, that was perfect. Now what I am looking for is how to change the following: 1. When you have a route, at the bottom of the screen it will show how long it estimates it will take to get to the destination. I would like to change this to show the estimated time of arrival instead. I know the variable to use (textmodel_time="navigation.eta_at_destination"), but I cannot find where to make the change to use this instead. 2. I would like to change the elevation to show feet instead of miles. Is this possible? Thanks again... --Dave you could change it on the displayed info setting Thanks. That took care of the ETA, but what about the Elevation? Is there a way to show feet instead of miles? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ill.die.trying Posted September 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 quick question, what do i need to use schemes located on dpdurst mod page, that wont effect your mod. i see the gfx and sys.txt file? bmps on the gfx folder, check the color.ini and/or color3d.ini in the scheme and look for these, [other] texture="gfx/day/texture.spr" sun="gfx/day/sun.spr" sky="gfx/day/sky.spr" heightcolormap="$skin$/common/dayheightcolormap.bmp" background_picture_0="gfx/day/sky.bmp" sun_picture_0 = "gfx/day/sun.bmp" whatever bmp is being referenced on this part of the scheme you should have that on your gfx folder, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jml2008 Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Thanks for the quick reply IDT RE: dpdurst 3.0 mod1.2 . Installed GFX in GFX folder,Schemes in Scheme folder, the unit starts ok and runs ok until I try to make a change in Monitor colors then I get a Message (Failed to open files: "UI_IGO8/common/dayheightcolormap.bmp" exiting application.) That note stays on map screen until I clear all files from the SAVE folder except favorites. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks again for your help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
