I took the great work of IDT's mod and have started to recreate the Navi Map screens from the standard IGO8 skin.(the one with binoculars in the upper left corner)...with a few tweaks.
Here are some screenshots of what it looks like.
I will be posting the files in the next couple of days, for anyone interested, after I test it out a bit on the road.
Sorry bout the lack of focus,..my phone sucks.
Any feedback is welcome.
that looks really neat. cant wait to try it out
the concept is good but you might want to move some of your buttons
yea,..there are a couple things I am still tweakin with,..thanks for the feedback!
Not entirely happy with the locations of the buttons myself,..but i tried them other places, and I did not want to cut any further into the real estate of the map image.
Any suggestions on where and what buttons would be better?
Also,..I have tested it on the road and works well.There is one thing I was hoping someone could find for me.
I have changed the route recalc progress bar to be the animation recalc image from Igo8(rotating green arrows).My problem is that I cant seem to find the code thats making the animation have the old left to right progress image display.I have the rotating arrows working, but the left to right scrolling display seems to be layered on top of it...cant find where to get rid of that.
I can post the files now if you want to see it,..but I was hoping to get these little things worked out first, to avoid numerous posts and mod versions.

it's in your navigatemap_800_480.ui, at the bottom part

what i would suggest is to get rid of the panel on the right side,
Thanks All-
Here are the last lines that handle my progress bar animation.This is my issue.I don't see anything in this code that refers to the old left to right scrolling.What have i missed?
;************percent***************
Also, the panel on the right can be hidden at any time by pressing that little arrow button(one step ahead of ya an that one 
),..that panel is useful,..my pic does not do it justice, as when you are driving, speed limits, no left turn arrows, etc will show when driving...so sometimes it looks like there is not much there.That's why i put the option to hide and display that panel, just in case someone didnt want to see it.
I am going to post my files,..but keep in mind that I also have my blue button theme in there as well,.and hummer car image,..so if you dont want those,..you will need to overwrite my image files with your own.Will have em up shortly

Take a look at the layer ui_route_planning_progress in navigatemap_800_480.ui (this is where the progress bar is). Bar is displayed in sc_route_planning_start script, and the progress sprite of the bar is attached to the map in start.ui, so check those locations.
This is great, just what i was looking for(posted that a couple of days ago, did this trigger you?), can't wait to try it!
Actually,..I havent seen your post yet,..but I am glad I am not the only one with such good taste!,..lol
Ok,..here are the files for this mod for anyone interested.
First off,..thanks to BorisM for helpin me clear up my little recalc issue,..works good now.
And thanks to IDT for giving me a great mod to start off with.
This forum is great and very responsive!
Here are a couple things to keep in mind before downloading my mod,...
****ALWAYS BACK UP YOUR IGO FOLDER BEFORE TRYING SOMETHING NEW****
- Since half of the unit's UI buttons are located in the 800_480 folder(in the DATA.ZIP), half of your unit's UI buttons will have my blue buttons from my blu_button mod.(Navigation UI buttons and menus would be affected)
If you like the look of those images,..then simply copy/paste the "Image.res" file I included in my .zip into your APL folder, and the rest of the unit's UI buttons will match(my blu buttons)...Otherwise, you will need to copy/replace any customized or stock images you desire back in.
- I have a Hummer car image in there instead of stock pointer image.
Complete Install Instructions...
(assuming you already have "Testmode" on your SD and know how to boot to it)
***BACK UP YOUR IGO FOLDER ***
-Copy my "DS-DIGI.ttf","SYS.txt", and "DATA.ZIP" files to you APL2 folder(inside your MyFlashDisk/IGO folder)
-Copy my "Image.res" file to your APL folder(inside your MyFlashDisk/IGO folder..for UI buttons)
remove SD and reboot unit.

I have just installed this. Well done!
do we need to replace any files with these or just add then in . like i know im gonna rename the stock data.zip file but what about the others
Just copy the files in to the locations specified,..no renaming of the files required.
Most of the files will be replacing the old ones...so u will get that file overwrite confirmation message when copying them over

Hi, this looks great!
How do replace the car-image with my alfaromeo 147?
Which files do i need to replace for that?
You have to make your own images for that.
Basically,..you'll need to create your own images, and replace mine.
these are the files you need to change:
2d view car image:
daycar.bmp
daycarghost.bmp
nightcar.bmp
nightcarghost.bmp
These are found in your "DATA.ZIP" file in "ui_pioneer/common"
3d view car image:
car3d.bmp
These are found in your "DATA.ZIP" file in "ui_pioneer/800_480"
I learned how to do it from this post...

Thanks, I'll give it a try!
Now some feedback: in the infobox, the second row, the units fall out of the box(to the right of it), tomorrow i'll try it on the road, but it looks very promissing!
Not sure I am seein that,..where exactly are you referring to?
Are we talkin mph units or elevation units?
Cruise mode or Navi mode?
I may not have caught everything,..but am interested in fixing anything you all may find.
Keep me posted.
Here are some image i put a circle around the km sign, but it also happens when you put something else there.
SOmehing elde that i noticed, is that on al roads i sometimes get a speedlimit 50, although for example 100 is allowed(km/h). see the second image on the left.
Beside this it works great!
Hey i just came along the new IDT mod, he added some new menu options for the navi, like multiplanning and the tripcomputer. Are you able to add these to, or am i asking to much now?
Really great modification.
The interface looks great. The trip woudl be a good improvement, but a wonderful hack.
Thanks for it
Ben

how did you remove the boxes from the right side i would like to do the same because its to cluttered for me
there is a little arrow on the left of that panel,..just press it and the panel goes away.Press the little arrow again and its back.
Put that in just in case it was too cluttered for some people.
If you want to more permanent solution,..i can post the lines of code you need to pull out.
Hello-
I have taken IDT's latest version(4.0) and added my Navi skin.This means that new features he added like multi route planning and Trip Computer are available.
I also have taken some feedback and enhanced my skin as well.
-more fonts are consistent with the yellow scheme
-There are now more options for hiding and showing the cockpit info panels
1- little arrow next to right panel will hide right panel only, pressing little arrow again will bring it back
2-Added a button to the left of the 2D/3D button at the top that will now hide ALL cockpit info panels and
details for those who like less clutter on the screen.Click the same button to bring them all back again.
So now you all have 3 viewing options; Left panel Only, All Panels, and None of the Panels!
-Reverted back to stock buttons for all UI's for those who do not want my Blu Button theme included in their
mods.
-Reverted back to stock 2D/3D arrows instead of my Hummer H3(for obvious reasons) 
Here is the link to the new version...

you're the man!
just one little wish? can you make touching the infopanel on the left going to the (new)route menu, this is easier then going thru menu/route/etc
