I've been reading the posts here with a lot of interest and looking at adding this mod to my unit, the only thing holding me back right now is that I don't have an overall feeling for everything that this mod does.

 

The downloads contain no extra info such as a readme or even a rudimentary overview that describes the changes that will take place after the mod is applied. And with over 80 pages of forum info, trying to extract that from individual posts is highly problematic.

 

Is there a summary or explanation of all the things in the mod that I missed somewhere?

Hey IDT,

 

Just wanted to report that I experienced the reboot problem again with your latest 4.9 version. I did have the speedcam option enabled with all the speedcam coordinates loaded. It was working fine in 3d mode, but when I switched to 2d and clicked on the area with the speedcam, the constant reboot problem appeared. I don't know if it's worth mentioning, but I also switched the speedcam alert from full to simple, then back to full prior to the reboots.

 

i just checked and i'm not having any problems with it, could you try reloading the mod,

 

anyone else having this problem?

I've reloaded it and it is working again. I'll try to find the exact steps to replicate the problem and report back to you. Hopefully, it is not just me that's having this problem.

FINAL UPDATE

-navigation progress bar,

-on/off setting for navigation progress bar

-for MSN and TMC users i was able to fit the favourites button on the shortcuts

-beep warning slider

 

this would be the last version, i think that all i need is already here and i'm pretty happy where it's sitting right now,

as far as bugs, i will still update it if someone finds any, i have devoted so much time on this skin and i'm seriously happy with what i achieved, thanks to BORISM, N-S-E-W, andr2000, keeper22, all users that volunteered to test it,

 

i'm going to be working on another skin so expect a release soon,

 

there are 6 versions of this final mod, 2 for the regular users, 2 for MSN users and 2 for TMC users,

the reason i created two for each is because of the unit setting varying from different locations (setting a speed camera), so if the first one doesn't work for you then use the one with the alternate at the end of the filename

 

1) first off this is not an auto installer,

2)extract files and transfer all files to a freshly formatted SD card (for F500 users, you have to edit the device type part first to reflect the device type of the F500 before transfering it to the SD)

3)this already has testmode file so no need to add anything else

4)insert SD to unit,

5)boot up unit

***if this is your first time,PLEASE BACK UP YOUR FILES

6) copy DATA.ZIP, SYS.TXT, and DS-DIGI file to igo folder

7) to add a different scheme, add the contents of scheme folder to MYFLASHDISK\APL2\IGO\CONTENT\SCHEME

 

**IT'S MANDATORY TO DELETE THE SAVE FILES, it's in My Flash Disk\USER\UserData\iGo\save, everything should be deleted except for favourites.dat if you have it

 

8) once done copying turn off the unit, remove sd card and then turn unit on,

 

any comments, suggestions, requests are welcome, anyone who wants to be a tester for upcoming mods please send me a PM,i need more than one set of eyes to get this thing going

 

any donations thru paypal are very much appreciated [email protected]

change the current values of this

3dcarsizemax=5000 
3dcarsizemul=15000 

 

to this

 

3dcarsizemin=5000 
3dcarsizemax=8000 
3dcarsizemul=30000 

 

and add this part to the [3D] section

 

 
car_day=hot_rod_red.mdl  
car_night=hot_rod_red.mdl
ghost_day=hot_rod_red.mdl
ghost_night=hot_rod_red.mdl

 

you now have to transfer the desired carmodel and tex file to the gfx folder in the data.zip and change the names of the above code to your selected car model name, i haven't tested every car model out as i already like the hot_rod car, but it's just a trial and error thing

In this version you can not disable the audible speed camera by simply clicking on the alert window visual ?
