Thread: FlashDeck

Looks amazing, works well. Can't wait for it to be done.

Tried it on a Mobile Celeron 1.2GHZ, 256 ram and XP.

Was a "little" slow, but not bad at all.

I did have some problems with the volume control though. It jumped up, and the numbers tracked, but I could not get it quiter then I think 32. When I tried to make it lower, the "slider" part seems to move, the numbers didn't change, then the slider bar jumped right back to the 32 mark.

Keep up the goodwork.

Thanks.

Dinasty, are you going to use skinbedder for the IGuidance support.
It will get rid of the nag screen and also the pesky file view etc toolbar on top.

That little gray bar is completly out of sync with the skin.

tested on laptop: 1.7GHz, 1Gig of ram and it runs very smoothly... I'm really impressed with the direction it's going.

Issues noted so far:
I think your release notes mention this anyway but the browser expland for particular directory works rarely. Usually (more than 50%) it displays nothing, sometimes it displays what's in the directory.

Suggestions:
Would be great to add a "desktop" menu item to system. I like to minimize RR sometimes to do things on my desktop and often find that a helpful feature.

In the EQ or other screen have a "gain" control to control winamp volume and not just the main volume. I find depending on how I want my lowest to highest control to sound I have to adjust the winamp volume level a little vs what I'm listening to.

Questions:
How do I get the "CD" function to work? I tried looking around in your ini files and I didn't see much on it, but i'm no skin expert. Hopefully this isn't a new bie question.

Thanks for all the hard work on this!

I see FD support is planned, but how about Mapmonkey??

Cheers

Nah... Freedrive has passed up MM a long time ago. And they both run on destinator so why not got with the better app? Plus CdR is on the same page as me with the flash stuff if I need to ask him questions or whatever...

Btw, I just tested on a laptop and the compass does in fact work, I was just unclear on how to set it up (you need to set the RR com port in RRconfig and/or use Xport with your iG com port)

I'm fairly pleased with how it turned out, it's very easy to look at and drive at the same time

I tired it on my P3 500Mhz and it runs a little slow but the "awesomeness" factor outweighs the slowness!

Just one concern...
My screen resolution is set to 800x600 and when I load FlashDeck it only displays on the top 2/3 of the screen...
Is there any way to change this or does anyone knwo hwo to change the resolution to 640x480 with a lilliput screen?

Any plans for phoco support?

alimh,
like with ALL roadrunner skins you can edit the general.ini and change the screen res.

I changed my general.in, but only the black background covers all the screen and the skin is still only 2/3's It looks something like the problem in this post
