RELEASE - FreeDrive 0.51 Beta

**NiN^_^NiN** · 04-16-2005, 02:21 AM

Thats sweet

I'm gonna make the skin more like a BMW nav with the address poi etc on the side but with simple text so even a person who doesn't know what POI is or route to an address knows what it means

Great work can't wait to see what netuso does with freedrive

something like this would be very easy to do :-) the buttons on the sides could be set to whatever you want.. 2d / 3d / birdseye / address / history / fav's / cancel / clear / home .. etc.. etc

It's not SDK embedded, but it looks good

Hello CdRsKuLL!

I'm about to finnaly install my carputer, and your FreeDrive works so good with touch screens. I was very happy to se a new version with new functions but I can't get it to run at all.

when I start the program it display a messagebox "Run-time error '13': Type mismatch" and when i klick ok it exits.

0.40 works fine, 0,50 and 0.51 doesn't. I have even tried the exe that you posted for an other problem but no luck.

So I tried to intall FreDrive 0.51 at my work computer (just to make sure it was no old files or settings that caused the problem) so today and I get the exact same problem, then I intalled 0,40 and it works. Map Monkey works, so I don't think it's a problem with Desinator SDK.

I run Swedish WinXP SP2 om both computers.

Do you have any idea what could be the broblem?

can you try changing the skin for me to the default one, go to freedrives folder and open up settings.ini, in there change the line skin=Default, see if you then get the same message.

Still the same problem, but now its the Default skin in the backgound instead.

ok can you download this version and see if this sorts the problem out, if it does then I will need to look at how i'm doing the sdk

Sorry, but the problem is still the same.

Can I do anything to help you find the problem? I have tried all my ideas for now.

Looks good, I'#ve currently got my car pc out of the car and was working on reducing xp footprint and getting it on to a compact flash card so i'll give this a go tonight.
