Probs with voice warner

[soulman_lost]

Hello all

Having some grief getting my tt1 to give me a voice spoken alert to tell me when I come up to a safety camera.

Ok heres what I have:

TT1, firmware 5.420, 512 mb kingston card.

Downloaded the safety camera database copied the speed zoned ov2\bmp files from there to the tt1 great britain map folder and then went into the ov2 bmp folder copied the red light camera ov2 and bmp file and put it in the great britain folder.

Also I renamed all the files e.g. pocketgpsworld_gatso_40 to just gatso_40 etc so I can read them on the tt1 screen easily.

then downloaded the data.chk file from tomtomsatnav in the real voice warning promptsd and downloaded the newly added one for the 5.420 version and copied it to the tt2 main folder and renamed it data.chk

At this point I was sure I had read and done everything right and restarted it and it would warn me when I came up to any of the safety cameras but it hasn't?

The cameras do show on my route and I have enabled them in the manage poi menue and set up distances to be warned etc. But no joy.

Where have I gone wrong?

I could bet my grannys apples that I've followed everything down to the last letter spent an afternoon reading the help mes and guides and I've messed up somewhere I gather.

Any assiatance would be of great help

Cheers all

Have you assigned them to each camera type? The voices have replaced the sounds in the data file, but you still need to assign "cow" etc to the camera types in:-
Change Preferences / Manage POI / Warn when near POI / <select each camera type> /< choose each "sound" (voice)>.

If you want more sounds/voices than the standard number (and to re-name the something sensible on the TT), take a look at Ray's site
