You should be able to save the smartzoom tilt settings. Did you try to delete the User\UserData\igo folder and restart? It might be a left-over problem from another mod.

hi chuck. just tried this and still wont save my settings.

hi chuck. just tried this and still wont save my settings.

I am so sorry my friend, I've put the wrong SYS.txt in the release. I changed it since the implementation of the modifiable smartzoom parameters version, BUT ONLY IN MY AVIC!!!

Abb is going to laugh at me, he will argue that nobody uses smartzoom since nobody has reported this issue ... or everybody is happy with my personal settings built into the SYS.txt.

So here it is, the SYS.txt that enables you to modify and save the smartzoom settings.

Sorry again!

UPDATED SYS.TXT, please replace the one that you have under "\My Flash Disk\APL2\iGo".

SYS.TXT

Works like a charm now!! appreciate all the help and fast responses. great looking out for. this is the first mod I've added to the unit and i find i am rediscovering the joys of the unit. Thanks again Chuck.

Glad that I was helpful and thank you for your support.

Hey Chuck running your new update and love it for the most part. a few things i would recommend modifying of without sounding disrespectful would be the the contacts image should be changed i think that takes away from the unit looking professional, another thing i noticed was the the street signs changed to blue verses when they used to be green. also the street signs got smaller and harder to read i would recommend changing those back to a larger font or at least create a setting that allows the user to Change them to their choice. But those are just my opinions, I'm grateful for what you have produced already.

Thank you for your comments.

1) For the contact image, you can edit or change the following files (compressed within Images.res):

746_32K_MN-641_32b_normal.bmp

746_32K_MN-641_32b_push.bmp

You can also revert to another Theme in this forum by swapping the Images.res. Search with this keyword "Images.res" or "Theme". It is saved under "My Flash Disk\APL".

2) EDITED: You have to select Map Preference "US" under Regional Settings.

3) Highway signs: I have no plan to make the signs larger at this time as it will cover pretty much the whole screen during navigation (too crowded). I will see if I can have other ideas at a later time.

Upcoming update is coming its way ...

Thank you for your comments.

I will just wait until you fix it. and possibly one day you will change the contact image if not i will just have to live with it

2) I made a mistake by associating Miles/hours with Blue highway panels. I will correct that in the upcoming update. In the meantime, you can the file laneinfo_signpost_eu.ini identical to laneinfo_signpost.ini at "ui_pioneer\common", within the DATA.zip.

Answer to point 2) edited and reposted above.

bonjour,

merci chuck pour ton mod.

rendez vous avec motte et bandit972 pour les nouvelles mise a jour.

continue comme ça

Switching from your rival's mod package as I get no Nav audio. Now, while I installed following the instructions, none of the buttons work, hence the unit is unuseable.

Do I need to reload 3.1 and format or is there a shorter way to accomplish this.

Thanks in advance.

Well, first of all, there is no such thing as RIVAL's MOD in this forum, as nobody charge anything for the mods, so there is no rivality between modders. You select the one based on your personal preferences. We are here to contribute to the community, there is all. Lot of modders are gone partly because lack of appreciation, not necessary monetary, in my case all I want is "thank you for your efforts", but still, very few did that.

As for your problem, I think that it is not related to the MODs, you should reset the configuration of the WinCE (saved under "\My Flash Disk\User"), but unfortunately, I don't know how to do it without reloading FW 3.0x. Perphaps, may I suggest to selectively delete configuration files (or RENAME THEM is safer) before wipping the whole Flash out. Yeah, that's a time consuming process ...

Remember, there is no FW 3.1!

I do know that the unit was near brick status and doing the 3.x install was key to making it work again and the key to the mod kingdom, which made my thoughts of reverting to that procedure logical. I will try to do as you suggested.

Again, thanks. Mike

===================================================================================

This could be very well my last version, unless there is major bug, which is very unlikely.

This forum is losing momentum, and it is no longer like it has once been. People is still downloading a lot, but no one care to involve anymore.

Good lucks to every one!

Chuck

Thanks so much for your latest work.I am afraid you may be right regarding the forum.I really hope the forum can get back to where it once was but now mainstays like Abb seem to have gone I really fear the worst.I really would like to pass on my appreciation to you and the other mods and wish you all the best for the future.

Thanks Ovalball for always been there to encourage modders of this forum. Your support is greatly appreciated!

Looks great Chuck! Gave it a whirl today and am impressed, especially at the "SmartTrack" feature (I prefer 2d over 3d). I had been a long time user of Diaftia's mods and although I do miss some of his features/interface I think I will stick with yours for now. A few questions, is it possible to customize the zoom level/speed on SmartTrack? If I could get it to zoom out even further at higher speeds then there would be no need for the overview mode (while driving south it is difficult to see what is ahead). Also, what do you mean by "True LCD backlight OFF during "Screen OFF" function (from the map screen)"? I do not see an option for "Screen off" on the map screen, only in the menu screen. Sorry to hear this may be your last mod, it is a very good one and I like what you did with the autozoom and icon menus (took awhile to figure out before learning they are identified via text by pushing the menu icons twice).

Sorry for not being explicit for the pushing twice icons. I didn't put the instruction in the first thread.

The SCREEN OFF function is brought up by touching the START BUTTON on the lower left corner, then pushing the icon right above the EXIT button. From there if you push the lower left corner, it will totally turning OFF your screen, including the Bluetooth blue LED ... 3 pushings!

As for the level/speed customization, I didn't have time to do that and I just, before v3.1 release, felt that there is no interest from this forum, despite some 150 downloads of v3.0 within the first month. I am not sure yet, but if I have spare time I will probably do it for myself in the future, and if so will eventually post it or send you a copy of the modified files (don't interpret this as a promise though). If you want to customize the feature in the meantime, please refer to the beginning of the navigatemap.ui file, everything are there, but hard coded.

Enjoy it, as I do everyday. The SmartTrack feature is especially useful during normal driving, or during navigation for the route that you already known (i.e. you don't need to see closely on turns), by turning OFF the "During Navigation" feature and by leaving "2D Normal Driving" at YES.

Thanks for this updated v3.1 mod. This one rocks with the smarttrack feature! You can also turn the lcd screen off by pressing the 1st icon on the top left corner if you have the earth icons on. Then, hit the bottom left. That'll just take two steps.

It's a shame that our forum is dwindling and talented mods are leaving, like yourself. I really enjoyed your mods and wish you the best of luck. I'll continue to use your mods until you return someday....

Thanks kluong6, that pleased me.

Oh yes, I forgot you have enabled the top icons bar on your deck.

Cheers!
