You've been the best help, Julius.

Good luck and take care, bro!

Good luck with new J.O.B.

sure gonna miss your input. Hoping you cold answer quick Q', I had asked VBLUE42

I am using your mod, Abb's img.res, & DPdurst schemes, I changed the values to 79 from 74 in the data file but it did not take care of the multipoi diamond, is this because I did not change the branding zip? The one in your mod has all the icons so I thought I could just change the value to 79 but no luck, I also added this code from N-S-E-W

[poi]
use_multi_poi_icon=0

It did not work either,

I had this working but I reinstalled everything and just didn't want to change the branding zip if not necessary, because I have to reassign almost every icon, again.....

VBLUE42 says it should work unless something in your mod is different, I dunno

This is how the multipoi looks;

$poi_mapdistant.bmp

$poi_mapclose.spr 79

poi_mapclose.spr 79

[poi]

use_multi_poi_icon=0

i have not tried that fix as i don't have the poi's turned on, i didn't change any coding regarding that so i don't think it's the mod, i will try to find out for you, i'll try to be online atleast once or twice a month if i could so if there's any updates or anything that i modified on my skins i'll post them up,

Another thing, mostly for fun...

If you put

content="Storage Card\IGO\Content"

in the [folders] section of sys.txt and copy content folder form th? flash disk, you can run iGO with data off of the storage card... rather handy if you want to experiment with different maps, schemes etc..

I had to make some changes to this to work on my 3.02, It was the folder being named IGO that caused my problem. It needs to be IGO8.

This should be updated to read;

If you put

content="Storage Card\IGO8\Content"

in the [folders] section of sys.txt and then copy the content folder form M? Flash Disk, to the IGO8 folder on your SD card you can run iGO with data off of the storage card... rather handy if you want to experiment with different maps, schemes etc..

FROM I.D.T.;

Now in your formatted SD card, create a folder and name it as iGO8, and that's the place where you would want to copy the content folder form the flash disk, i suggest that instead of moving the content from just copy it and paste it in the said folder.

FROM Hube2002

I would then rename the content folder on the flash disk to something else like "content2" or "no_content" so you know the unit has to be reading maps, languaes, poi's, etc.. from flash disk. If it works for you you would then have the option to delete the folder off the flash disk entirely to free up space. Make sure you have a good backup!!

Now to get the unit to read all the maps and stuff from the IGO8/content folder open up the sys.txt and change the Switchmap code at the bottom to this code provided by I.D.T.

[switchmap]
changer="\My Flash Disk\APL2\iGo\Extension\MapChanger\MapChanger.exe"
1=",map_ta,\Storage Card\iGO8,\My Flash Disk\APL2\iGo,"
2=",map_nt,\Storage Card\iGO8,\My Flash Disk\APL2\iGo,"

This worked for me, I have the complete contents of the content folder off my flash disk and on a SD card.This is for all maps and content to be on the sd card, if you want just Navteq maps on SD card and everything else on the flash disk read beginning halfway down page 23 of this thread viewtopic.php?f=64&t=28376

I did not post this solution because I did not use it and cannot say it works for me but the answers should be there.

I have not had a chance to road test it to see if there are any adverse affects from this but as of now I have it working and it works great as far as reading both maps, poi's, displaying signboards, etc...

I have simulated several routes & all of this works well sitting at home but I want to do a good 1 hour road test to see if there are any issues.

All of this info was provided by BorisM, I.D.T. & others, I am just tying to collect it & get it all in one post. Hope this helps someone. It is what worked for me....so far...

Tried very hard to be accurate in using the members quotes to be sure instructions are clear but I did edit a few lines of text for the sake of clarity, if there is any misinformation here I apologize and welcome corrections from all gurus.

Good luck with new J.O.B.

I thought you had figured how to add this to sys.txt and it worked.

yes, I have got this, thanks. I may have double posted. Running on sleep deprivation mode...

WOW, only been gone for a week and this is what i see,

but finally got fed up with IDT's mod

WOW,

Dont let that get to you. I hope you are doing well. I am also unsure of my future as I have been without full time work sense September. Please don't disappear from here for good. Good luck to you.

Yes Definately! You are one of the few that have made this forum what it is today! Any time that you can spend here is more than appreciated!

IDT, no offence meant mate. PM'd ya and posted up an explaination/apology is the thread concerned. Just bad wording and a lack of explaination.

I am using an older mod of yours, and to be honest I didn't like the angle of the 3d view with the sky, or the fact that it tracks automatically to 2d when in 3d mode. As I said I hadn't looking into fixing this apart from checking settings and fiddling a bit and it's all personal preference in the end. What I like isn't what the next fella is going to like.

Your mods are loved by many and make a big difference to the stock product. I hope you can keep up your hardwork because you seem to enjoy it and have a big following on AVIC411.

non taken, just surprised that after everything i get something like this, all the mods i've made have been created to suit users suggestions, features extracted from various mods and scripts i made myself that took i don't how many hours to figure/implement, all mods in this forum are created by users who wanted to improve a unit that has so many flaws and share it with others, i've dedicated so many hours of coding and testing to get my mods running and provided support to users who needs it, well i guess my point is atleast show that you appreciate the mod even if it doesnt suit you,

Hey IDT - Hope all is going good with the new job and move. Don't let what one person said affect you too much, even if it was a mistake. You're respected here for all you've contributed and the time you spent supporting your mods.

Hey guys, I was wondering if there is a "user guide" of sorts for this mod. I am still trying to figure out all the little gems like the trip calc while navigating, how to access the screen with the speedo in the middle, etc.

Does anyone have a working link for the 3dcars.rar file? In all the posts it says in the "provided link" but I have found no link for it. Thanks in advance.

Uhhhh, did you try the link that is in the thread? open it up and you will see a '3Dcars.rar' file. Download it and that is all you need. Make sure that you follow directions

finally got around to uploading my mods,
