i've asked this question 3 times already but can ANYONE please tell me how to get the RRearth-GPS link to show in rrearth?
sorry guys, my house if falling apart so I've been working on it a bit so been a bit out of it for a few days.
@Sonic: I've said I've never seen that error message before, did you make your cache files read-only or something ? cause that's the only way I know GE won't run offline, I mean, if the cache is not available/damaged or read-only. I'm not sure of the other questions you made, Current install procedure should be:
-Make sure GE works fine OUTSIDE RR
-Leave it with the left side panel OPEN and make sure the window is NOT maximized, then close it.
-Download the RREarth.zip file and unzip anywhere you want
-Download the new RREarth DLL file over the one you unziped
-Regsvr32 the DLL
-Make sure you have the RREarth.skin file and use the GE_START button to load it.
That should be all.
Hey Guino, I've been trying to finish off my skin for RREarth + GooPs, but I am having problems with trying to put the RREarth buttons within a pop-up.
1) After entering the address with the OSK, it goes back to full-screen mode and I have to hit the direction button again to see the popup where I just typed in my address.
2) If I use fly-to/tour/direction buttons, it goes back to full-screen but does not do anything. If I then exit to windowed mode, then the "queued" command works (It's like when issuing a GE command from the popup, you then have to re-embed GE in a new .skin to get the command sent).
Any clue or work-around, or am I going to have to kill this pop-up idea and stick all the RREarth buttons in the full-screen .skin?
1) The OSK is also a MENU, so it unloads your menu THEN loads the OSK, you should predict that the popup will NOT be the current screen after using the OSK and use the OSKTOCMD command to re-load the menu if desired.
2) If you make sub-screens for GE (including menus), you should use the GE_EMBED command to make sure that when LEAVING the popup/screen GE is embedded onto the screen. I had planned to make this more automatic, but I can only handle the RREArth.skin file, so you might just as well do it yourself -- All it takes is changing any EXIT commands to EXIT||GE_EMBED and so on.
How do I use the OSKTOCMD?
I tried this but it loads my menu immediatly after the osk: OSKTOVAR;GEBOX1||MENU;Earth-P1.skin
Edit: I searched Skin Commands.txt for OSKTOCMD and found nothing.
Edit2: Tried "SETVAR;OSKTOCMD;MENU;Earth-P1.skin||OSKTOVAR;GEBOX1", didn't work.
Also Fly-To is still not working from the popup, here is that command: "CANCEL||RUNQ;c:\program files\Road Runner\GooPsScripts\NoTrack.exe||GE_FLYTO;$GEBOX1$ ||GE_EMBED"
Any chance I could send you the skin for debugging help Guino? If so PM me your e-mail. Thanks.
From Skin commands.txt:
The only limitation is that if you want more than one command to execute you'll HAVE to place it in exectbl, since || will split the commands before OSKTOCMD is executed:Code:"OSKTOCMD" - This allows you to read contents of a variable much like OSKTOVAR, but also allows you to execute a command once the user
presses "enter" on the OSK (idealistically so can use the data entered).
Example: "OSKTOCMD;MYVAR;RUNQ;$MYVAR$" (will try to execute whatever was entered in the OSK)
Button: "OSKTOCMD;TEST;TESTCMD"
ExecTBL: "TESTCMD","RUNQ;$TEST$||SETLABEL;MYLABEL;Execu ting $TEST$"
Ok, cool. Is this a new command or something. My "Skin Commands.txt" is dated 9/5/06 and does not have OSKTOCMD in it.
I got the OSK working great with that command. I still cannot get the fly-to, tour, etc. buttons to work in my popup though. They don't even work when exiting out of full screen like it did before. Here is my command:
"CANCEL||GE_EMBED||RUNQ;c:\program files\Road Runner\GooPsScripts\NoTrack.exe||GE_FLYTO;$GEBOX1$ "
I also tried moving GE_EMBED to the last command instead of the 2nd.
Try RUNQW instead. Chances are both Goops and the plugin are trying to do stuff to GE at the same time.
Thanks Guino, that did the trick. Skin released!
