Posted some new versions of the AIOs to the FTP.

Also created a BigClock-NoMSN version.

If you want a BigClock AIO, just DL the normal AIO then grab a BigClock-Auto of your choice.

Run the Full auto-installer and then the BigClock only one.

 

 

CMH, this data zip just changes the clock, right? Nothing else (besides the Hybrid TTS)?

Changelog is in the readme on the FTP. Difference between versions is BigClock or normal and MSN or no MSN.

Hey, it looks like NoMSN.UnzipToSDCard.zip isnt on the ftp anymore... I went to noMSN and did the auto install there but its got yellow and black lines on all of the menu backgrounds. everything else seems to work fine... i was figuring i had the wrong file... any help?

hey does anyone think they could come up with a new image for the destination menu including a pic of a map and a picture of a blue saturn ion redline and change the icon from an iphone to a blackberry storm

also on the map the clock is red is there a way to change it to blue? ...thanks guys

Looks liek you need to do the 2.0 update first. =]

It is valid your mod for EU models?. In principle data.zip should be not related to versions but at first read it seems that is at least only tested on USA models.

 

Anyone has tested it on EU model?,

Has anyone done on a EU data.zip)

 

The data.zip will work fine. If you DL the All-in-one, just delete the files from the mitacap\apl2\igo\content\Building folder as they would just take up space on the avic.

Change mitacap\apl2\igo\content\MapDBInfo.txt to read:

Area: EW

IntegrationVersion: 01.000600

BaseContents: content_v142

lang: lang_data_download_080630

voice: voice_data_download_080707

 

Mitacap\apl2\igo\Sys.txt [Device] Type="PIONEER746EW" would need modified. The Guga theme should work fine, but not all Sat/HD radio icons will be available. Everything else should work A-OK.

Thanks for the info. I will try it

Posted a NoClock version to the FTP. This is actually the one I use and is thus the most up to date. It has minor icon alignment tweaks and a few redone BMPs, but no major changes.

Great mod, installed yeserday no issues a all, thank you!!!

I do have a question, is there some way to show the street names BEFORE i pass them, right now they either dont show up or they show up after im passed them. Im not sure if this is a mod thing or just a basic 700bt setting.

Thanks

download the mod that says DJDisturbed-auto, he changed the clock to a dif color in that one, also you can check out the one that says BIG clock, that one is easier to see as well. or if you look around page 13 ofthis thread you can download gnasr's mod and his clock is very easy to see.

Well this post proves just how newbie friendly this mod is. I am both new to this forum and to ownership of a Eurpoean spec f700bt, and have applied this mod to it without bricking it.

I used "non_MSN" unziptosdcard download and copied the EU MapDBinfo file and the UK speed cam file to the specified locations. It all loaded and ran perfectly so I want to add my thanks to those that contributed to this.

But, (there is always a but isn't there?) I have a couple of issues that may well be down to my newbieness or something to do with the US/EU version differences.

Firstly, although the speed camera warning screen is available under "Warnings" and I have set it to give both a visual and audible warning on approach to a camera, I get no warnings at all when I drive past one. The cameras show on the map OK, and I have checked the details of the local ones, and they seem to have the right speed limit and direction applied.

Secondly, I get no TMC information showing. I have tuned a preset to Classic FM which, AFIAK, broadcasts TMC info, but the TMC page shows no information. I get a car symbol showing on several of my preset stations, which I presume means it's a TMC station. Also both the "Exclude Selected Station" and "Show Excluded Stations" options are greyed out on the TMC Control Centre page. The TMC present part of that screen shows a single blue dot in the left edge of the bar. I have no idea what that is meant to indicate.

Thirdly, (OK I lied about a there being a couple of issues) When I change the speed limit sign style from US to Euro it doesn't retain that setting when I switch the unit off and on again.

Any ideas as to what i'm doing wrong?

first, you have to check your settings, if speed warnings are set to off, custom or whatever,

second, i don't have TMS so i cant help you with that

third, it's set permanently to US style, in order to change this you have to edit a code in the data.zip, in setting_800_480.ui

Most of what you mention is related to sys.txt. You need to use most of the lines from my included sys.txt, but change the type under device and look for anything in your original that mentions TMC to add it to mine. I posted a worldwide Seedcam spud file to the US/Canada speedcamera post. Might want to try it. You do need to delete the old files out of the speedcam folder on the avic, though.

I don't know how you added your speedcam file, whether it was a TXT file a SPUD or a POI file. TXT or SPUD is the format you need. POI speedcams will show on map but not offer alerts. Voice alerts are used by selecting "Custom" from alert type.

SpeedLimit signs are a sticky setting(permanent in the model-variable script makes it save between boots). If it isn't sticking, you may need to copy the data.zip over again.

one little "tidbit" as far as the section cameras go. I know we don't use them here in the states AFAIK but I was playing with them and set up a coupla "dummy" section cams and the avg. speed that is displayed in the speedcam warning box is a BIG number, for instance, when I was driving about 40MPH it was displaying "2020...." in the box.

Is there a glitch in the code to deal with this?

Thanx,

Budf

Thanks for that cmh928. I hadn't realised I needed to change the device type. I have done that now and that definitely solves the TMC problem, that is now working perfectly. There didn't appear to be any extra TMC lines in the existing sys.txt

I will try out the speed camera warnings again later to see if it has solved that too. I checked my speedcam directory on the flash drive and I only have the spud file that I loaded.

The speedlimit signs setting still won't stick, although, interestingly, the turn restrictions option in the same menu does stick if I change that. I had copied the whole file set over again after modifying the sys.txt.

OK, I've just driven past a couple of speed cameras and I still get no warnings visible or audible. I have taken a couple of very bad pics with my phone showing the settings screens for this. I notice that when I adjust the volume slider for the spoken alert warning I get no "test" level spoken, am I meant to? I guess though, that as I don't get a visual warning either, that the problem is with the system recognising that I am approaching a camera at all rather than a problem with a sound file.📎 Image000.jpg

for the test level, that is not included in the file,

It's quite possible that the spud file you used doesn't include camera direction. Make a test camera by tapping a location on your street near your home. Then hit the cursor icon (left of the 2D/3D icon), hit "save as", hit "add camera" and choose a speed, camera type and the last icon for "all directions". Then hit "done"

If this fake camera causes the alert to appear, it is simply the SPUD file at fault.

You may also want to turn on "warn when speeding" just to be safe.

To make the Euro speed limit sticky, there need to be quotes around a value (vspeedlimitUSA="1") in modelvariables.ui. I will post a new version later.

All the versions on the FTP have been refreshed. Added new pix of the NoClock version in its folder.

It seems like the SPUD file must be the problem. I created a dummy camera in my road, as you suggested, and I do get warnings about that both visual and audible. I then selected the 2 cameras nearest to me from the SPUD file and edited them. They did already show a direction, but I changed them to be active in both directions in case the direction was wrong (they are on a dual carriageway). However, I still get no warnings from them at all travelling past them in either direction. It seems odd that they show on the map correctly and can be edited OK, but don't seem to be recognised by the alert system. I have a UK speed camera file on a Tomtom and have found a conversion program to go from ov2 to Igo format so will try that instead.

With regard to the modelvariables.ui, where is that stored? Is it in the Data zip file as I can't see it as a separate entity? If I go into testmode can I edit it directly on the AVIC, or is it best to download a new Data zip file and copy it over?

Once again, thanks for your help on this.

I've created a speedcam.txt file based on my old tomtom file, added that and removed the SPUD file. The camera warnings now all work fine. cmh928's new files also solve the UK speedsign sticky issue, and the TMC is working great too. This now all works, and looks, much better than the original.

There is still a "but" though!

Unless I am missing something, it doesn't seem possible to be able to have speed cam warnings only when you are over the limit. i.e you can set the warning beeps to be active only when you are over the limit, but you still have to have a spoken warning as you approach every camera as well. I tried reducing the level of the spoken warnings to zero but that also removed the over limit beeps. Ideally, I don't want to be told every time I'm approaching a camera (there are so many here that you would hardly listen to any of your music). The perfect warning system for me would be the existing spoken warning but that came on only when you approach a camera over the speed limit. Even just the beeps if you were over the limit and no spoken warning at all would be OK. Are either of these possible, either by tweeking existing settings or via a hack?

Choose something other than custom in the warnings. This will kill the voice, but leave the beeps on whatever setting you choose. There is no option to kill the voice when not over the speedlimit. I personally only leave the visual on. A bright red block popping up on the screen is fairly obvious even from the corner of your eye.

Thanks. I'll give that a try. On the subject of the bright red block, should that pop up on other screens (Tuner/Mp3 etc) or just when on the Map screen? Mine currently only shows when on the map screen.
