|
|
Hi, first time I have tried this but I have downloaded this months speed camera database(all 23 files) and am trying to get the voices to announce the speed limit at each camera. I can select each camera type and select an alert to go with it but none of the spoken alerts I have downloaded from Rays Tomtom site appear as options. First I put the downloaded file in the root directory then I moved the origonal data.chk file and renamed to downloaded one to take it's place but no success so far.
Thanks for any help.
Barry. |

Scrap that, forgot where is was.
Have you used the POIextend program? The Tomtom.exe needs to be modified with this to allow all 23 seporate voice promts to be used.

If you are NOT using Ray's POIextend, the new alerts will still be called the same names (cow, polite etc.). Have you pressed "test" to listen to them? |
