    Question No City Names

    I just rebuilt my carpc and the navi city name within RR doesn't show. In the past I have never had to do anything to get it to work.

    The skin (DigitalFX 4) shows GPS is active and the gauges shows the GPS status. So RR can "see" the GPS. What else do I need to do?

    You may need zips.dat in your RR folder.. if you don't have it, then you can download it from here (Files->Gas Prices Files):

    Thanks I will try that. It is odd that I never had to do that before.

    So far not luck. I extracted the file to the RR folder. So I need the Ziplocator.dll? I tired copying that to the RR folder too. Nothing. I found the file with my carpc files. Thought it might help. I guess not. Any other ideas?

    Btw the zips.dat was already there.

    1 is the default, it means it will look at the zips.dat every 1 minute and update the labels. If you do have the zips.dll in the RR folder, DELETE IT, it can cause RR to completely hang up.

    Also in the DFX skin, the entire top area over the labels is a hidden button that will update the labels when pressed. This is a good way to test it when you have a GPS signal. Just tap any of the display area at the top of the gauges screen.

    actually i think the default is 0 unless it was changed in later rrconfig releases. But yes setting it to one will check ur city once a minute.
