I did some hunting and finally found the answer I was looking for. Chuck this mod looks awesome I thank you. diaftia I appreciate all the work you have done also. I made changes that needed to be made adjusted font to fit and added a few minor color changes on some things if interested I will send you my fixed Data.zip as well as my image.res File that cleans up both NAV and AV with some Blue colors.

Just make sure you are using a mod that polls elevation with "gps.elevation" and not "navigation.current_altitude.number_text". Otherwise you will see no difference. whuch is located in Data.zip File. ui_pioneer\800_480\ui\navigatemap_800_480.ui I changed all 3 references and Now it works awesome.

Glad that you have it up and running, finally!

I will try the "gps.elevation" thing later. Do you mean that you no longer need the fixed EzRider.exe if you modify the navigatemap_800-480.ui file?

Thanks.

From what I have experienced I don't need it. I would have to test with the non-hacked EZRider File. While traveling in Higher Elevation. I am in a low altitude area on vacation so it will be 2 weeks before I can test.

gps.elevation will work to show feet up to a mile. See this thread : http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/18571-post-your-max-elevation-display/page__st__15

I believe if you're in area with elevations over one mile you'd need carver's hack.

I don't seem to be able to find it ... which carver's hack are you talking about? Are you talking about the 2nd hacked EzRider.exe?

Thanks!

It's been so long I thought it was carvers hacked ezrider when it was dpdurst who modified a already hacked ezrider for elevation. Here's his download http://gpssoftware.us/avic/30/ezrider_alt_mod.zip

I don't know what version it's for or what else it may have other the ability to add new maps and report elevation in feet. Remember though, that you still need to change the code in the data.zip to gps.elevation.

Here's a couple links as well:

Thanks!

Diaftia's mod provides the hacked EzRider.exe for elevation fix for download, don't know if he changed the scripts to gps.elevation though ...

All of those threads are dated 2009, not sure, so I might as well not to mess with it.

But, if it is only simple as to change all occurrences of "navigation.current_altitude.number_text" to "gps.elevation" in the scripts and use the elevation hacked EzRider.exe?

Thanks!

I have tried 20 different EZRider Files and unless you change chucks file from navigation.current_altitude.number_text" to "gps.elevation" it will show Miles I have traveled over 3500 miles in the last week and it works awesome. Again Thanks Chuck.

I will make the change in my upcoming release to the gps.elevation.

Number1Guru, so which EzRider.exe file you're using for the showing of fts when pairing with "gps.elevation" (is my understanding correct???)? Can you PM me a copy so I can include it in my release?

Thanks.

I have been using Chucks smart track during my trip through France which is currently up to 1200 miles.The smart track function has performed flawlessly and has really helped to get me through some unfamiliar villages with ease.Thanks Chuck for helping my holiday travel a lot easier than usual

chuck how can i contact you???

Thanks ovalball for your feedback. So I'm ready to push out my latest, and I am sure you will love it, with my usual attention to details.

Cheers!

Just returned home.Only one slight problem was once when I tried to simulate a route I got a "out of memory"error and had to reboot.Only happened the once but thought that you would like to know.Otherwise it ran smoothly and was a great navigation aid.

Once? You mean you tried the same route again and no error?

Did you disable the GPS before simulating a route? There are bugs in iGo's SIMULATE function if the GPS is not disabled (this is why I added the enable/disable function in the GPS settings screen). No problem in the Emulator though.

Hey Chuck,

Your SmartTrack looks really interesting to me. I have been holding off installing your mod (I have 3 cars with an Avic) since you mention the next release coming soo/ready....

Should I go ahead and install 3.1, or os 3.2 just around the corner? No pressure, just that whole Murphy law thing that seems to follow me around. This will be my first use of your mod, I have been using Andy's mod until now. Nothing wrong with it, but your SmartTrack sounds pretty cool.

Hey good to know! Sorry for the delay I thought that only a handful of people really want it. It was dead-ready, just give me two days or so to upload it. Let me post the operating principle below for now ... this help may be brought up in the iGo interface, for reference.

If you like 2D, you won't be disappointed! I just invented SmartTrack and revamped your driving experience ...

Chuck88's SmartTrack Explained

Simply better for 2D Navigation!

Brought to you by Chuck88 (2011-06)

While this feature is extremely useful, its operating principle is very simple. As a prerequisite, SmartTrack can only be turned ON when the iGo SmartZoom function was turned OFF.

In 2D Driving Mode, the map zoom level is calculated in function of the current travel speed, variable from 25 km/h to 110 km/h. Levels vs speed can be customized using the interface.

In 3D Driving Mode, one can adjust the level offset that is to be deducted from the map zoom level calculated as per 2D Driving Mode, and a bracket of minimum/maximum is set to prevent from zooming too close to the ground or too high in the sky. Those parameters are also customizable in the interface.

When the Navigation SmartTrack is turned ON, the algorithm will take over the level calculated in function of the current travel speed starting at 1200 meters down to 117 meters before turn, and then revert to the level calculated in function of speed, if the next turn is in more than 1200 meters.

For obvious reasons, SmartTrack is suspended under the following situations:

* Map follow mode is stopped. SmartTrack will not resume as long as the on-map cursor is shown.

* AVIC multi-function stick is pushed. SmartTrack will resume automatically after above 45 seconds.

Will upload shortly ... please bear with me!

Just the once and I hadn't disabled the GPS so that's probably the reason

Just the once and I hadn't disabled the GPS so that's probably the reason

Sorry to say but that is from the base code of iGo, that I didn't have a chance to dig into.

I remember when I test-drived diaftia's mod v3.0, and I also signaled the simulator problem to him ... the SIMULATE function in the AVIC is very eratic at best.

So that is it, I finally got v3.2 posted , so after contributing to this forum for close to one and a half year, I can prepare my retirement now.

I will stay for a while to see whether there is big issue, after which, if absolutely necessary, you can try to join me by PM.

I personally find this an excellent mod, and credits go to whoever has contributed to its making. I invite you guys to continue modding of my mod where I left it (don't forget to give me credits ), and I say farewell to everyone!

Great job Chuck, the selectable zoom levels makes this mod absolutely perfect! Thanks for all your contributions over the past year and a half; it is sad to hear that such a talented modder is retiring. All the best, and thanks again!
