Release FreeDrive 1.0 Preview

**ShawJohn** · 03-02-2006, 06:16 PM

Sometimes mine doesn't embed properly, and I get transparent FD over the top of any RR window, pressing start button and then back to RR, and click GPS fixes it

I have a new one though now I think?

Sometimes when I'm driving FD grows a thin white border and the map flips upside down and back again for a few seconds, then it stops... Don't know what causes it yet though, got a feeling its flash related.

Aye, was working great for me last night. Nice one CdR

should have a little update coming soon. just trying different ways of doing things. I have also decreased the loading time, but now it loads things like the menu when you first tap the screen, not at load time as before.

I have used it before (0.8) but this is a clean install with latest RR and FD 1.0.
FD runs fine on its own, but doest want to start when called from RR.
ANy ideas?

OK

1. what RR skin are you using?
2. what is the button command in the calling skin file?
3. what is the path freedrive is installed to?
4. what are your rr config settings for GPS?

hey techy101, ever figure out your high cpu problems?

i'm using RR with the alpine skin and freedrive 1.0 freedrive uses so much cpu on my m10000 that it basically disables RR as each click takes like 30seconds to 5minutes (seriously) to register. this is with the fade effects off.

i've only got 256 ram in there to speed up hibernate. any suggestions for things for me to check?

really liking the look of the new version. moving upcoming manuvers to the top was a great call. feels like the screen is utilizied a lot better.

keep up the good work!
