The Windows wireless networks list shows up in the upper area for me, and did before these changes. Just wondering what is supposed to be different.

Thanks,

Yes it should fix the connection info. Not sure why your getting a error. Did you just put it at the end of your rr.ini? Mine looks like this...

startcommand=RUN;$SKINPATH$Scripts\wifi_man.exe

I did have problems, but this new zip file works.

Thanks

I got it to work a while back in DFX 2.5, but had to redo the skin/RR install, and never got it back working..

man I LOVE this new way of changing your buttons and colors, everything in this version! Simply AMAZING work and help form the beta testers and this community...

YOU ALL, YA'LL ROX! (yep, I am a Texan! YEEEEHAWWW!)

I am having the same trouble.

hi john,

i found a little bug..
in the execTBL file under "MyApp17" there is a double " in the line at the beginning and the end..
that is the reason i could not get freedrive to run.

I tried to load solitaire game today, all the other games work fine, but when I choose solitaire nothing loads.

When I use scribble pad, when I start to drag a line across the screen it will mute the mp3 that is playing.

Other than that, skin has been awesome!

I just want to add aslo that solitare does not load for me. I checked the dfx games folder and the flash swf file for solitarie is not in there.. We may have to find a good one online and save the webpage then extract the flash.

I tried it also. It did not work 100% . the labels did appear but then dfx3.0 closed down hard and never populated the top information. IT also spiked my 2.0ghz pc to 100% and the hour glass kept comming up like it was looking for another script or stuck in a loop.

In the \DigitalFX 3.0\Scripts\WirelessList dir change Wirelessrr.exe to Wireless.exe

In the ExecTBL.ini change "WirelessLabels","Runq;$SKINPATH$Scripts\wifi_man. exe" to "WirelessLabels","Run;$SKINPATH$Scripts\wifi_man.e xe"

Add this line to your rr.ini startcommand=RUN;$SKINPATH$Scripts\wifi_man.exe

Hope this helps.

I just added to end of rr.ini and inside the exectbl.ini. Maybe since i used rrconfig the first time maybe i need to use that to edit the .ini s' since this time i just used notepad.

edit--- EUREKA figured it out. Okay for us newbies using rrconfig.. do not cut and paste
"WirelessLabels","Run;$SKINPATH$Scripts\wifi_man.e xe" or startcommand=RUN;$SKINPATH$Scripts\wifi_man.exe

Nicholoson's fix figures we are smarter than the normal user, instead us newbies have to put the auctual skin path. example this is what i have in the rr config ini app for exectbl.ini
"WirelessLabels","Run;"C:\Program Files\Road Runner\skins\DigitalFX 3.0\Scripts\wifi_man.exe"
note i used the whole path not "$skinpath$" god i feel stupid for not thinking of it as a variable.Now put this in the ini extras. That is if you use the default paths.
startcommand=RUN;C:\Program Files\Road Runner\skins\DigitalFX 3.0\Scripts\wifi_man.exe
thank you Nicholoson for the instructions on fixing this..
Okay now i still need to figure out why winamp wont freaking pause or mute when ig gives directions but will work perfectly in carwings skin when ig says directions..

XM has a bunch of land based (terrestrial) towers around, mostly near big cities, in addition to the satellites. The Ter indicator will show when you're tapping into those.

One needs to edit XM_Favorites.skin to change the channel number for each button and edit XM_Favorites_On.png and XM_Favorites_Off.png to add the channel icons to the appropriate buttons. Once upon a time, John supplied the channel icons and the necessary PSD files, so that editing was pretty easy. I don't see them in this release, so don't know if he intends to make them available. I assume he does and has just forgotten to include them, but that will be up to him.

Add on note: Mainly because the buildings block the sat signal. XM has tons of towers to fill in the blank spots because of their geosynchronous satellites.
