Basic questions from a returning user

Hi. I haven't been to this site in a LOOOOOONG time - since back around the time that 3.0 was hacked and made available. I provided help and wiki pages (now lost I guess due a DB crash? bummer.) for a few hacks/mods: removing the clock, moving the route summary frame to a better location, quieting the super loud sound effects, etc.

 

I just returned to this site and finally upgraded my AVIC F90BT to 3.0 via posts from Retell and MyITGuy, and now I have a few questions:

 

1. Is there any reason to figure out how to get 3.0100100 or whatever? Or is the 3.0 that I have just fine?

2. Do I need to upgrade my maps or did MyITGuy provide them in his files?

3. Is 4.0 really going to happen? I can't believe I've been gone for so long...

4. Now that the wiki is down, where can I find the new 3.0 versions of my favorite modifications? Specifically, HOW TO SHUT UP THE VOICE WHEN YOU HAVE A ROUTE. That guy drives me crazy.

 

Thanx in advance.

That i can not answer.

Dont know how to shut the voice prompts off. I personal like

Diaftia's Hybrid mods V2.3 better
