Thanks David,you are a top man.

 

All fixed, too much going on, on the left side of the screen to leave it there. I did make it bigger and moved it to the right side above the total distance and GPS status icon. Its pretty easy to see now. I may have to come back later and change the moving icon to orange or something like that but it works now both in navigation and simulation mode. Enjoy

 

David.sorry to be a pain,but did you update the download link on page one to include this?I have installed it twice but nothing has altered ie the progress bar is still top left.Thanks again for all your efforts.

Yep 2pm today the link was updated, I have tested it in the car and the emulator and it does indeed show up on the right side of the screen now.

 

- Update I just downloaded from the page and ran through the emulator again. its on the right side as it should be

Taking a little break from IDT's mod to try this out. Haven't got to run a route with it yet, but I like it so far. Just a little sluggish on the controls.

So.. when I tried to copy everything to my F700BT it says that I dont have enough space. I deleted the whole LeSScro folder on the gfx folder to get around this.. is this OK? Am I just missing on the backgrounds?

 

There's also a Xerxes72 folder - can this be selected somehow?

 

Thanks!

Personally I would check out the DEM folder and remove anything but North America. That would buy enough space. I normally only keep the surrounding state maps, POI and bulding files for the states I drive. Everything else I offloaded to my server for storage since I won't be driving anything past the western and southwestern states.

 

Otherwise you don't get any sky backgrounds or stuff like that with out the gfx folder Trying to select any schemes that might use those would probably throw up an error

Hi David.Have you any plans to incorporate the latest additions to stan/Andr2000 in your next update.The drop down POI thing seems like a good move.What do you think?

Can someone kindly point me to the thread (if it exists) where the original Stan/Andr2000 mod is?? :?: I couldnt seem to find it anywhere :oops:

 

Btw David I LOVE your mod. Sweetest mod evah. I do notice that the response time is a little sluggish in comparison to the original data.zip.. do you notice the same thing?

Here is the original thread, as for sluggish IDK.. it might be I don't pay much attention, the few milliseconds I have time for..

 

Original thread - viewtopic.php?f=34&t=24444

The original mod they did is long gone I think or at least its no longer posted. I think I have it somewhere would have to check

Cool, yea I'm thinking the green is too much myself. I'll have to play with some colors and see what I come up with

Posted Oct 22, 2009 · 19:57 UTC#39

Installed it...love it...but a couple questions...

 

1) What theme (scene) is that is your first post pics?

2) How do I adjust the viewing (camera) angle in 3D mode such that it is shallow like in your pics...used to just touch background for the controls to come up...can't find them?

3) Maybe it is due to #2, but I do not see any sky graphics?

 

Thanks for all the work!

Posted Oct 22, 2009 · 20:16 UTC#40

- My regional settings are set to kilometers but the speed shows mph.

- I cannot set the angle in 3d view. The current viewing angle is like near 90 degrees

 

thanks

1. Summer clear is the scheme

2. The original mod by Andr2000 removed the ability to change any angle manually, to get the view I have you have to use a modified sys.txt that is makes the change permanent

3. Yep due to #2

 

On that note, I'm not sure that the sys.txt I have posted has that change in it. I'll have to look when I get home shortly and then post the new one if it does not.

You can't change the 3d angle view, that was removed by the original author's of the mod. Nothing I can do to fix that right now. You would have to use a modified sys.txt (see previous post) to get the view angle I have

 

Yea I figured the speed would be mph, I haven't looked into fixing that yet.

I tried to do this mod today and really messed my F90BT up. I updated it to 3.0 and then to 3.01 yesterday with no problems at all so i thought this would be no problem at all.

 

I installed all the links shown in the first post of this thread but when i turned the unit back on it didnt look or perform any different except it would constantly say System Starting Please Wait and it would restart itself every two minutes.

 

I went back to testmode and reinstalled all the files thinking i might have missed something but nothing worked. I also went back in after that and tried to undo what I had done but now my unit will show the splash screen for two miunutes then just shuts down.

 

I am really really lost and worried that i messed something up permanently. Is there a way someone can send me all the original files so I can at least get the thing to come back on?

So you didn't back anything up? If you did you should be able to go right back to those files after removing the ones you downloaded from the first page. Either you didn't copy something correctly or you deleted something while removing if it reboots after sitting at the splash screen. The mod does nothing but change the appearance of the main screen. Try removing everything but the data.zip and sys.txt and see if you have the same issue. If so you did something else on accident and if you don't have a backup of what you replaced you may have to re-install.

I did not back up but i tried to replace the my flash disk with the one from the 3.0 update and it seems like it goes through with the file transfer but then again it will just sit on the spash screen and then shut itself down before it ever starts.

You should only need to replace the files you changed not the complete flash disk. Not sure what you did at this point. Just putting the exact files back should have resolved the issue unless something else got deleted or changed. I would make sure you removed the gfx folder, the schemes folder and put back the original sys.txt and data.zip and see what happens. you could also use testmode to get the desktop open up explorer and manually run the ezrider.exe and see if you get any errors that might give you a hint on what happened as well.

Updated 10/22/09 -

 

1. Increase size of the route progress ball and change from green to orange for better visibility

2. New backgrounds for current street, clock and speed cam distance alert. All are now same color, rounded corners and are transparent to match the next street background

Posted Oct 23, 2009 · 02:38 UTC#48

Dave, what do i need to change in sys.txt to adjust the tilting? My guess is this: 3d_max_tiltlevel=10000 ?

 

If so, what's the value in yours to show the sky?

 

Thanks!

The current sys.txt has the info in it. Here is the specifics on what I changed/ Also in the 3D zoom settings in the unit I have 200/600 and tilt up/down is set for 90 on each

 

3d_max_tiltlevel=8500

3d_max_zoomlevel=3000

3d_min_zoomlevel=40

3d_max_zfar=2000

 

[smartzoom]

enabled="0"

minangle=86

maxangle=88
