Hi all, well I've decided to release what i've done so far, i'm not going to get much chance to do any coding in the next few days, so thought it would be a good time to get some feedback and thoughts of what i've done so far.

Below is the link to my latest D3 Frontend release called 'FreeDrive'.

Visual All folder

Trip planner - coming soon

You are a tease

I like the alternating buttons (2D when in 3D mode and 3D when in 2D mode)

I don't see the Freedrive task along the taskbar

Where's my 'clarity' mode?

Just need a version I can skin now...

will fix the taskbar.. opps forgot that click, as for your clarity mode, go into the settings.ini where you installed it and turn showtime=0 ;-)

yeah! noticed that

though i have to say i love the "tech" look too it...it´s kind of the one thing iv´e been missing with other software/frontends...there´s no real good designs..but this...this could really become something =)

**CdRsKuLL** · 01-23-2005, 07:05 PM

uploaded a updated version, now has a resizing frame, and the taskbar name corrected
:-)

Used it going to work today and it seems fine.
Couldn't find "showtime" in the ini, so I added a row with "showtime=0"
but I couldn't see any differance.

I like what you're doing, getting rid of the built-in menus and using your own, makes a better user interface and gives a cleaner look.
