Anyway, I will give this version a shot and see what I can come up with. Very intersted in this GPS thing. This will be pretty helpfull.

well for me testing the GPS on of US Gas prices is kinda difficult, seeing as the nearest station to me would be Um actually I don't know, which is the most easterly part of the US?

Anyway the initial test was done my using a NMEA log I received from someone to test the GPS part of trafficams (still yet to be released) played on one PC and received by the development PC.

If you can get an NMEA log when you are travelling, have two PC's and a NULL modem cable then I can supply a program that will send the NMEA log to the COM port on one PC then you can run RR and RRgas on the second.

If you don't have a program to get the NMEA log, then I can supply a program to do that as well.

Sheeet I don't know. (Let me look at the code).


OK,

if the website reports that "dealer data is not available" then RRGASNODATAAVAIL will be sent to RR, and then RRGASDONE will be sent.

it does not send RRGASNODATAAVAIL if it can't read the webpage, that is something else I will add later when I work out what other things can go wrong.

E, I should be able to try and get you the debug log later today, when I get to the car computer (it's morning here now)

If you could get me an NMEA log of you driving around your area it would be nice

Here is what I did to get one or the other not both. RRGASDONE or RRGASNODATAAVAIL

Code:

"RRGASSEARCHING","BYVAR;VOICESAY;<<TALK;Gas Updating||WAIT;2"
"RRGASDONE","BYVAR;NOGASINFO;GASCOMPLETED||SETVAR;NOGASINFO;0"
"RRGASNODATAAVAIL","SETVAR;NOGASINFO;1||BYVAR;VOICESAY;<<TALK;No information for zipcode entered"
"RRGASAUTOZIP","SETVARBYCODE;GASCODE;CURRENTZIP||rrgas_newcode"
"GASCOMPLETED","BYVAR;VOICESAY;<<TALK;Gas Update Complete"

Ok I can't seem to get the slider to work at all. Can someone post there slider code. This is getting frustrating....

Slider will only work in 1.4.1 (ie the latest one I pm'd you) make sure you are running that one.




I'll upload updated BMV2 and iDrive skins later tonight with examples of the slider, new buttons and exectbl.ini commands

I am using the release I recieved friday.
