Thread: can someone make a Plugin for Iguidance?

there is no API for iGuidance that can be used by a programmer to call methods in iguidance from there software, so basically no, the best that can be done (to my knowledge) for now is mods to the themes, such as the efforts led up by purdoom, lostreception and others.

There is a new version of iguidance comming out this month I have not seen it yet but i dont think it will have an sdk released with it, but you never know... (keeping my fingers crossed)

Someone could atleast create a CFPlugin that was better than an external application. The top header could have GPS functions that send VKeys to the iGuidance window handle...

And they could use skinbedder concepts to skin the inner workings of iGuidance and make a decent plugin...

true, I think reddeath did somthing simular in mobile impact

Would there be anyway to get IG to pause the music when a direction is announced ? I don't know if you can but can you make a program that waits for for another program to make a sound and then pause CF. I have asked the creators of IG for a sdk and they said nothing is being made at this time... So I am trying to think of what could be done.

something like this

Private Function DetermineIfFileExists() As Integer
Dim sFileName As String
sFileName = "C:/text1.txt"
Dim fFile As New FileInfo(sFileName)

If Not fFile.Exists Then
MessageBox.Show("File Not Found")
Else
MessageBox.Show("File Found. File was created on: " & fFile.CreationTime)
End If

End Function


So if IG accesses uturn.wav it reads a database of the wavs and constantly updates to determind if they were used and to pause if any are used.

pause 5 seconds if any are used... something like that

I guess it might pause after the fact so it would be like

So like make W's the uturn.wav and M's the music it would be like this

MMMMMMWWMMM<SILENCE>WWWWWWW<SILENCE> MMMMMMMMMMM

Basicly you would hear the wavs better but it would cut off the begging of each one. I guess you could add like 1 second of silence to each wav that might help that if your updating the database every second.
