so just aim more too the ground ??

so you want the pic aimed more towards the ground?

so you want the pic aimed more towards the ground?

ok here's the deal, take pictures of it again like pic 1 and 2 but make sure that it's clear, i'm no pro in CS4 so having a clearer image would help me

I've just made this image for my 350z! Just rezize to h 85 x W 82 and save as a .bmp

All done with MS Paint and MS Picture manager, not the best tools but good enough.

EDIT: The above apps aren't actually good enough, ok for creating the image but not for getting into the correct format!

Made it up from this in case anyone fancies a silver one...

Have got those working on your unit?

Hmm, not as easy as I thought. I think I need a proper image editor. Can anyone recommend a good free one?

@ klanbo try GIMP its free and has all the options like photoshop !!

I'll cut out the car real good for ya if you would help me on replacing my arrow later? Just tell me how the image has to be saved.

Ok, I've figured it out now...well...I read the original post properly.

Got Adobe Photoshop installed and done it properly, 350z images atttached.

Do you have pics of these working on your system? I'd like to see em.

Just been out to take a quick snap shot, too cold to hang around outside though. Blanked out the name of my street....not that I'm paranoid or anything

Here it is, bit blurry but best I can do at the mo:

Yes, I know I'm a saddo

Oh also ritu_o0o, thanks for letting me know about Gimp, managed to get hold of Photoshop though.

I think creating the image and saving it in the correct format is the hardest bit, getting it onto the Avic is easy. The image needs to be saved in a bitmap format but it has to have the alpha channel as described on the first page.

Without this the system will just keep crashing, I tried it. I think I may have done something different to skicrave as on the alpha channel I created, it's the background that has the colour '#cacaca', not the car! But it seems to work so must be ok.

Not sure I need the image cutting out any better than it is already as once it's down to 85 pixels square, those small imperfections can't be seen, but thanks anyway. So are you a 350 owner too? or just fancy something different to the boring triangle?

Hi klanbo can you tell me what I must do to change the arrow into car in 3d

here you go http://avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=17490&start=45#p116696

Would someone mind seeing if this is correct?

It wouldn't let me upload here, so let me know if you can get it from here.

Also, two questions that probably are not related.

1.) is there a day and a night for the 3d car???

2.) I've seen mention that you can modify the tilt angle of the 3d map. Can you go as far as ground level as if you were looking at the car from behind?

TIA

Man,

You are way too fast.

I had problems getting my file to upload. Must be my newbie period are something.

Check my previous post and it should have a link to the files now.

Edit: I'm not sure if I did the background with the alpha channel properly. My first photochop

looks good, try it out then see if you had the alpha channels set,

Looks good, klanbo. I think i'll give this a try soon. Need to find a good image of an F-150 first.

It worked , but I have a white background.... I put the image on a tranlucent background.

Also, I had to insert the files into my good data.zip. If I used one I let windows create then the unit would give me a windows error and then reboot after about 2 minutes. Is there a write up on how to properly make a data.zip file???

Now How do I get rid of the white background??? Also can I make the car a tad smaller? Do I have to do it photshop are can I edit the data.zip

to get rid of the white background, using photoshop, click the parts of the image that you don't want to show up then select inverse and then go to channels tab and add alpha mask,

I've had some challenges getting this going and have checked my code over and over. I'm assuming that I have a bad .bmp file and am hoping that someone can help me make one the right way. Attached is a copy of my truck (two images in a .zip file, both 3d) from the back that I'd like to use for the 3d car, can someone help me make an image???

Thanks!!!!

I got it!!!

I'm not sure why this worked, but I selected the car and then on then selected the alpha color channel. I then cut the car out using ctrl-x which turned everything that was around the car black. Saved it and put it in and bam all was good.
