Chuck88.Mine shows as not connected on the speedo screen(phone with red X)when the phone is connected to bluetooth.This the same as yours I think.

ovalball, can you please confirm that not deleting the userdata was the problem?

 

Abb.I always delete the save folder,so it wasn't that.I have tried it twice today and both times it has been working perfectly.It's the gremlins that do it :lol:

Actually, you have to delete the ENTIRE 'Igo' folder, not just the save folder as all the save folder has is your personal saves not the data that is logged into the Avic

I have a F900 & F700 system, I notice that I can't use the VR feature in the navigation screen but i can use it when its in the FM, CD, IPOD screen am i missing something, can someone help me with this plz.

I dunno, I never use the VR feature as it is GARBAGE!! When I say 'Phone Home' it says 'Phoning Herold' and dials that number. No Nav mod should have any effect on the VR part of the AVIC

Abb's didn't your mod have the navigation text color in the custom setting at one time, orange is hard on my eyes, i see white text better, the color of the text is beautiful i just mis that option.

Nope, got rid of it as it was causing errors. WhT text is orange? It should be only yellow and white

Hey Abb,

 

I just noticed that when you use the small simple red light/speed camera warning, it covers up the compass. Just wanted to let you know.

I dont know, we dont have speed cameras here so there is no way that I can test it . Can you post a pic so that I know what I have to work with. Thanks

 

Hey Abb,

 

Finally got the chance to take that pic of the speed cam alert problem. As you can see it is slightly overlapping the compass.

 

I live in Toronto too, and there is a speed/red light cam database file you can use. Here's a link to download it: http://www.gps-data-team.com/poi/canada ... Cameras_ca

I believe you can put it in the SPEEDCAM folder. That should be in the same place as the POI, Maps, Building directory.

 

Also, another small thing, in the navigation input key in screen, you added a gradient colour that makes it difficult to see the text. It is virtually impossible to read it during the day time. If you could change that then that would be great.

 

Thanks, and sorry about the poor quality of pictures. My cell phone camera is crap.

You can also try this link: http://www.poifriend.com/poigroup.php?poigroup_id=7532

I think the other site requires you to pay for access. Also, I think you're supposed to change the file to txt or something. It's been a while since I installed this so I have forgotten. Forums should have some info to help you though.

There should not be any speed cameras in Toronto as it is not law here in Ontario. I really don't think you need them. The speed camera is a tough one because I cannot move it, so I will have to make it smaller. I will see what I can do. Thanks

I like the 3D icons, would you mind if i asked you how you did that in photoshop?

By using layers. I just find a suitable background, create a border, and then drop whatever picture in it I want to create an icon

is the 3d effect just a drop shadow?

No, drop shadows only work with a solid background. I just used layers as the background is transparent in my icons

Hi Abb,

Got a quick question. I realized that the fuel calc is in liters and I was wondering if you knew how to change that to gallons since I am in the US.

thanks

I think the gallon file is in IDT's mod somewhere. Go here, then try fuel calc replacement

Abb, Is there any way to change the text to a different color on these screens? It is really hard to see the address I am typing in. Blends in a tad too much. Thanks.

I will try to look at it on my days off. Changing the glow size should solve the problem, but I gotta wait until I have time to play :)

Least I can do, I take plenty...

 

I'm learning as I go but I always fell I take way more than I can give back from this forum and I don't like to roll that way. I have pretty much kept every filed I have ever downloaded from here so if you every need anything like that don't hesitate to ask.

NEW UPDATE IS UP WITH 3D CARS IN FIRST POST :D . Please give comments and let me know if any of the cars do not work. Car #8 is already a dud, do not click it! So far, that is the only one though. Please download all the files in this update, even though if you think that you already have them. Do not forget to delete the igo folder in the 'USER folder'

Are you quitting modding, or releasing 3.0?

 

Your mods are slick, but that font gives me a headache just looking at the screenshots :lol:
