IDT,

I just noticed this morning that I'm not getting my highway sign notifications. I looked in the road sign screen and changed from signposts to roadsigns(or lane info?) a few times and they don't show up. I tried this with and without a route. In my sys.txt I still have the show_roadsign=1 value under debug. I also added fov=55 to it but I had that before and it did not kill the highway signs. thanks for any help.

i will look into it, can you provide me with a start address and a destination that passes by that highway and when do you ussually expect to see the roadsigns?

Ok, I have managed to put a Navteq map of Ontario in the 'map_nt' folder which I put in the APL2/igo/CONTENT folder. This does not work at all, as all that the AVIC is reading is the basemap. I get terrain, but no streets what so ever. I think that it cannot read the Navteq .map extension

on the map changer page there's a map button, click that and see what map version its currently reading, if it's reading the basemap then it means that it's reading the map_nt folder (which will be named map onw since swithced), this is how the changer works, the executable file renames folders that's why it needs to restart, so having the map and map_nt folder in the content folder when the file is executed the map turns into map_ta and the map_nt turns to map, that is the concept of it, go to testmode and check if you have map_nt or map_ta, if you have map_ta then it means it did the renaming, double check that the navteq map is actually in the map_nt folder

Hmmm, here is what I get when I check the map data on Teleatlas, as you can see, it ccan read all the maps:

This is my Navteq map, DAMN! there's no streets!!!

Something is not right, somehow it is not reading my 'ontario.map' file that I have loaded

the thing is the navteq should be in .fbl format, it can't read .map file as those are the ones used by NAVIGON,

That is what I thought. How do you get them to .fbl format? All Navteq maps that I have seen are in .map format. I tried renaming the .map file but that did not work

you don't convert them, you just have to download the right file for iGO, here's a link where i got it from viewtopic.php?f=34&t=29780&start=0&hilit=navteq+map

also, the first part has the canada.fbl

Thank you, it is working great now! The Navteq actually seem to have more detail in the terrain, so I think that i will stick with that. Thanks, Julius! I have your entire mod switched over to my new 'Redblast' theme as Pioneer black SUCKS!!. I just have to see if there are any bugs.

I like the phone link better than Diaftia's as it actually is a link to the phone menu than just a link to 'phone home'. Excellent work!

IDT,

try navigating from 7000 tylersviller rd. 45069 to 1623 dalton st. 45214 or anywhere in 45202.

thanks,

it should take you down I-75 and you should see plenty of exit signs.

Maddog,

Are you using Navteq or teleatlas maps? I have noticed in the past that Navteq maps will not show road signs but Teleatlas does. I will try a route here in a few and get back to you.

that is a good point, i have read somewhere's too that there's not much map data on the NAVTEQ maps

I just confirmed it. Navteq, no road signs. Teleatlas, road signs. I have a mix of maps with both and did a route going through states that have nav and ta. Funny, road signs show up in states that have ta and they don't show up when I enter a navteq state. I could really care less about them, just so I know where I am going.

thanks for investigating

I'm using the Teleatlas maps, I'm going to try the Navteq shortly. The signs where there when I had skin #1. I'm going to try removing the fov=55 value to see if that did it.

NOTE: If you use this mod and you dont have a navteq map installed go to extension folder and delete map changer before you install the mod. I just had to reload my 3.0 cause i hit this button and it threw my system into a reeboot loop.

I just found this out too. The hard way. How do i fix this. I tried going back to my pioneer cards and reinstalling 3.0. Wont read the cards, prolly cause its the current version.

just boot to testmode and rename map to map_nt and map_ta to map, dnt forget to delete the contents of save folder

Well, I hope that you don't mind Julius, but I 'RedBlasted' your mod to suit my 'RedBlast theme'. Tell me what you think.

Cockpit w/ bigger car, bigger clock, and modified 'OFF' button to 'Scheme Changer'

NEW redesigned Speedometer w/ phone button on the bottom

Splitscreen

Splitscreen w/ tripcomputer

MapChanger

CruiseDial

Nav Settings

BUG ALERT, just confirmed that the signboard is not showing up, though the lane info works, i'm going to work on a fix and have it by tomorrow or saturday morning

Great!

... and I though for a moment that I did something wrong when I put the mod on my unit.

...looking foward for the update.

Thank you!!!
