Posted: Mon Mar 02, 2009 5:53 am Post subject: No Direction arrow in 2D Map mode |
|
|
Hi can anyone help me with this, I am using the latest software iGO8 PNA Version 8.3.2.64873 dated 13th November 2008. and the lates iGO8 Ultra 6.0.1.2 Skins..
My problem is, when I view the map in 2D mode, I don't get a direction arrow, or car bmp... everything else works. When I switch to 3D mode, I then get the blue direction arrow.. any way to fix this..
I would like to add the direction arrow or even better, add a car bmp instead of the arrow when using the map in 2D mode..
I am using a generic GPS device.
If I switch to other skins, the directions arrows work as normal.. my problem only seems to be with the igo8 ultra skins..
any help would be appreciated..
Thanks |

There's nothing in the Ultra Skin to affect the direction arrow, probably one of the other skins you have installed has disabled it in the saved settings.
Try deleting all of the files, not folders, in the "save" folder after backing them up of course. That should clear out any previous settings.
If that doesn't work check the sys.txt file on your device, and the one on the SD Card, for non-standard settings.

Thanks for your help Linknet. Problem is now fixed. I had to remove the following from the sys.txt file:
3d_scale_carmodel=1
3dcarsizemin=30
3dcarsizemax=40
3dcarsizemul=20
3d_max_tiltlevel=9000
once I did that.. the Direction arrow came back..
Any idea how I can replace the direction arrow with a car bmp?.. I'll search around but any help would be appreciated.
Thanks |

My views on using model cars for navigation are totally unprintable, so the polite answer is simply "I'm afraid not".
