Frequently Asked Questions.

Q. I don't have an internect connection in my car, can I still use this.

A. Yes, run this on your home PC (obviously you will need to be running RoadRunner on the PC as well), and then copy the stations.prv file to your car PC (must be done on same day). Since version 1.3 it is possible to store prices from different postcodes. These files can be copied and loaded in the car.

Q. I put in a new Postcode but the stations haven't changed or updated.

A. It is most likely the site does not have any stations near the postcode you have entered, you do not have a connection to the internet or you have run out of searches for the week. (max 20)


Q. Would someone care to send me this?

A. The Terms And Conditions expressly forbid the distribution of this program, please register on my forum to get your copy.


Q. How can I download this wonderful creation?

A. Register on my forum at www.en4cer.co.uk/forum , when activated go to the downloads section.


Q. I have registered on your site but am still not activated, why?

A. I do not monitor the forum registrations 24/7 so it could take hours or possibly a day or two before I can activate you. If I am going away I will normally put this info into the news section of the forum. If however after a few days of registering you have not been activated then contact me via PM here. Using the same username as you do on here will help you get activated quicker.


Q. You have done CFGas for the US and UK, any chance of doing it for <Insert Country here>?

A. If you can find a website for your country that show the prices against individual stations, is searchable by postal code or GPS coords and doesn't show the price as a graphic, then post a link and I will have a look.


Q. I don't run CentraFuse or a frontend can I use this?

A. No. however there is a standalone exe see this thread

Onyx Day & Night version skins in first post.

In creating these skins I have noticed there will be an issue with the current versions when changing skins if plugin was left in the Load screen. This has been corrected for the next release.

Bump for new release. Bit disappointed about lack of feedback from downloaders

Bug Fix
-------
Fixed bug where if plugin left from load screen and a skin change happened list was visible of top of information.

Whilst developing the TrafficCams plugin I have noticed a bug with the Up and Down keys not working in the loading screen, this will be fixed in the next version.

New version available, due to changes in the way the website worked.

Also now available through the Fluxmedia downloads and Zorro's plugin browser.

To allow for the above registration is now required on my forum.
