Been away from here for a while, too long TBH, but I've spent a bit of time tinkering with this great mod. Most of what I've done is purely cosmetic, got rid of a lot of unnecessary (IMO) on-screen dialogue and every word starting with a capital, tidied up a shed load of bitmaps, and added my own slant on a few things. I'm running iGO 8.0, firmware 2.007000, hacked ezrider, Worldwide licence hack, Q1 2009 EU maps. Obviously, thanks go to Stanislavovich, Andr2000, and not to forget the inimitable BorisM and N-S-E-W :D Here's a few screenshots, see what you guys think.

 

1. GPS signal. Click to go to 'GPS Status' screen.

2. Current altitude.

3. Distance to destination (or Viapoint).

4. Current speed limit.

5. Current street icon (red).

6. Next street icon (blue), or Viapoint icon (yellow).

7. Speedcam warning bar.

> Cam type on left

> Section cam in centre

 

Love the way it looks. Can you uplload the data file? And can I use it on 3.0?

Does anyone know if it's possible to get rid of the Navigation warning every time the unit is turned on? I am using FW 3.0.

5 - Bluetooth connected button. Press to phone home

 

#5 - what would be nice is if we were able to get the phone book and/or dialer to show with a touch of the bluetooth bmp.

 

 

The code that I have added to navigatemap_800_480.ui is below, and thanks for the suggestion re the bmp file.

; the Bluetooth Button indicates Bluetooth Connected in bottom left corner, push to dial home - Added by mr_cs based on suggestion by ill.die.trying

; remember to add bmp file

 

I agree about trying to access the phone book. I have asked on the forum about this but the silent response suggests that nobody has the answer. It was the reason that I added the phone POI button, as when I was late for an appointment it was such a fiddle finding the client's phone number! (I have my clients set up as POI)

No problem, although I don't seem to be able to upload a bmp file so I have zipped it. I hope this works!

I am not sure how I missed this thread or the contributions you guys have made to this mod! I thought that this was N-S-E-W's mod and he kept giving you guys credit! I am glad I found this thread. I have just read all 32 pages and all I have to say is great work! You have come a long way since the 2.0 version. I wanted to let you know that I thought this mod was so great that I ported all of my costmetic stuff over to it as well. I have to say that the level of customization you allow is outstanding while not being over complicated. Great work andr2000, Stanislavovich and Boris.

 

Here are some pics of my port over to your mods:

 

 

 

 

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to run such a great set of mods. Like I told NSEW its like building a race car from a Porsche; you end up with a race car but its of a much higher caliber than if you started with something else. :)

Hi, can someone tell me how to delete the points I have added pressing the know? They are like baloons, and I can´t delete them. Thanks.

Go to Map (a button under the compass), find your pin (baloon) and set curson on it by clicking, then push "cursor" button on the right side (red circle) and you will see "Remove pins" button. That is all.

THANKS

What is it that makes it so that the map is centered in 2D up mode. After deleting a route the car icon is centered in the screen rather than being set off the bottom like the stock mods. You can actually see an example of it in my first picture posted above. When you cycle through the map views with the compass it goes back to the normal view of being set off the bottom of the screen. But if you create and delete a route it goes center again. Does anyone know why this is?

When I select a POI, the Call button is not enabled. What do I need to do to enable the Call button for the POI?

That was on v2.0, but I'm in the process of tweaking Stanislavovich' v3.0 mod: as soon as I have it sorted I'll get back on this thread

Technically, POI needs to have a phoine number defined, and phone needs to be connected. I'll check if it is working, though.

Thanks will try it when I get home. I assume this fixes the turn restriction issue with coming on too early etc? If not then I have a ton of stuff to add to that bug since I have been keeping track of what it does wrong..

This will need to be fixed by NavNGo. At least now you can turn them off...

Just installed the new version. It's a great mod, simple and clean and I like it very much. Thanks for the effort.

 

One question I appreciate your help. I tried to tilt up the screen close to 90 but still could not see a bigger sky in the 3D zoom. Any suggestions? Thanks :D:D:D

--Turn Restrictions settings added: never, cruise (current behaviour), always (when navigating, small turn restrictions sign is shown)

 

Tested out the new version on the way to work, Set the turn restrictions to never. Got the door bell chime and then the turn restriction shows up. Setting to turn off didn't work

can you give me the exact route where I can see this? can you reproduce this in the emulator?

I don't use an emulator I drive the car and test -

Route would be From the city of Maricopa, Arizona take Highway 347 to Chandler, Arizona about 18 miles total, the route has several places that fire off the turn restrictions especially on freeway overpasses..

Looking forward to the patch.

See attach. You may want to play with the coords of the progress to suite your needs :)

The progress is disabled by default, to enable go to Visual->Additional navi screen settings->Show Route Progress

 

Hope this is what you expect

 

Here's my findings regarding the route progress bar. It works perfect if you stay on the route that was calculated, once you go off route the progress bar resets back to the beginning. For now I have it off. I've been playing with the route progress bar from the route information screen. I have that on the main navigate screen but the car arrow is too small plus the color of the bar can't be changed. At least I haven't figured it out.

 

I was also able to get the text for the next street and current street to scroll if the text exceeds the predetermined width setting.
