When you reply to a post you get the reply box, well below that is the "Add an Attachment" box. Click browse and find the file and then Add Attachment.

Hello there, i have been reading this forum sonce i got my F700BT and love all of the info and mods. I have version 2.0 installed and not many hacks/mods except modifying my sys.txt to make the 3D arrow smaller. I am looing at cleaning up my nav display a little. I am pretty savy with computers except when it comes to editing scripts and codes, stuff like that. I don't have a program for that. I know how to get into test mode, copy files safely and keep the old ones on there. I hate to ask this but was wondering if anyone would make me a custom data.zip file to do the following:

 

1. remove the zoom scale

2. remove the info box in the lower left corner ( or make it so "full screen cockpit" mode is always on

3. if possible, remove the iPod album art from the MAP display ONLY, not on the iPod display. If this can't be done , no biggie

4. No key beeps ( the silent wav's)

 

Just curious, i would appreciate the heck out of that, i was really hoping to try myself and learn but being a miliatry man right now my time is very limited. Like i said i hate to ask but if someone is interested, i would really appreciate it. Like i said i have a 700BT with Version 2.0 and my current data.zip is untouched.

dumpystig Great job, I really like your mods, but im wondering if you could move POI/cancel route button to the left in order to see it when you are listening an IPOD song w Album cover. I´m a newbie and i have no idea how to do that.

 

I hope you could upload it as soon as posible, if not, can I give you my email and send it to me?

 

 

Thanks a lot

Question for Mav or Boris or anyone who can answer this. I have one final tweak i want to make for right now. Can anyone tell me what to edit to remove the Multi-info box in the lower left corner or basically make it so the "Full Screen Map" option is always on and not defaulting to off. I saw Mav's mod and what he did but i did not want to add the speed/elevation. Thanks for any input.

You could a) make the box invisible (hide the entire layer). Or, make the variable that holds cockpit setting permanent, so it is actually saved....

Thanks for the info, i would like option B so it is permanently on by default. Would you mind posting the change in the script that i have to make?

I haven't done it for myself. If it is warm enough I'll try it this week...

Awesome thanks, if is was a little smarter with scripts and coding i would try. Thanks to you and all the other smart people on this site i have learned a lot and was able to make some minor tweaks and mods to my unit, this is one of the last things i want to do ( actually i would like to replace my 3D arrow with car but im not to confident doing that one yet, for now i resized it and like the size it is). I appreciate the time you take trying if you get around to it. Thanks again.

Here's a quick fix:

in variable_def.ui find еdit line:

and replace 0 with 1. This will default it to on.

 

A more involved solution would involve defining another variable:

 

Then in settings you would copy value from vFullScreenCockpit to vFullScreenCockpit_saved when it is changed and in, say, start.ui do something like:

runif vFullScreenCockpit_saved 1 "vFullScreenCockpit.set 1"

else_run "vFullScreenCockpit.set 0"

 

I haven't tested the later one, so no guarantees...

Thanks, i'll give the first one a try later on after work. I appreciate the info.

Posted Feb 03, 2009 · 17:06 UTC#290

Boris, your the man, i did the quick fix you mentioned, changed 0 to 1 and it worked like a champ, now when i start up, full screen cockpit mode is defaulted to on and no multi info box anymore! Thanks again for the info.

You're welcome. Glad you got it working.

Thanks, me too. My 3D display looks a lot better with out all of the clutter and a much smaller 3D arrow. I took away the keybeeps, zoom scale, resized the 3D arrow, did the software bypass, then your mod for the full screen cockpit defaulting to on. I got a new iPod, 120GB classic. Tomorrow i will install XM and see how that works. I love my AVIC now. It is damn near perfect. You guys and this forum ROCK!!

Peter, go into >DATA > project config > pioneer > [map] and alter 3dcarsizemin and 3dcarsizemax. Take them down 1000 at a time to suit your requirements.

 

:wink:

Posted Feb 07, 2009 · 16:50 UTC#296

All i did is ad the following to the end of the sys.txt file:

 

 

[map]

3d_scale_carmodel=1

3dcarsizemin=3400

3dcarsizemax=5400

3dcarsizemul=54000

 

The default values are:

 

4000

6000

60000

 

respectively, The values i have above make it a good size, but that depends on you, You don't have to decrease it much to see a difference, I would start by decreasing by 500 for the first two values and 5000 for the third third and see how you like it.

Cheers Dumpstig & Beachbum,

 

My default values are

 

3dcarsizemin=6000

3dcarsizemax=8000

3dcarsizemul=40000

 

I'll try reducing them and let you know how it goes.

Posted Feb 07, 2009 · 20:12 UTC#299

Thanks to both of you, I reduced my settings to:

 

3dcarsizemin=5000

3dcarsizemax=7000

3dcarsizemul=30000

 

Looks great.

Guys I was wondering if Maverickster's DATA file would work without any other tweaking of the scripts for Canadians operating in speeds of Kilometers per hour distances of Kilometers.
