BTW, i had a audioaddon.swf i made but loading it on top of the audio.swf caused the playlist names not to function. Any idea why CDR? Check the pic in post #420 to see what i mean

thanks a milion.. i installed macromedia flash and fianally i was able to make an swf with a dynamic label to show the temps.. or any other label that is..it was very easy thanks for the file though.

seems like this is the only way that we can add labels in freedom..

Sonicxtacy02, what labels caused the playlist not to function properly in your audio skin??

there werent any labels, it was just the fact that there was another .swf on the screen. Its like the variables the playlist needs werent bein passed thru to the audio.swf, so all the songs in the list read UNDEFINED

I think you might be able to fix this be changing the order of the "F" objects in the .skin file. I think i ran into a similar issue once... strange huh?

i tried a few differents ways of doin thing. unfortunately the way the skin is setup my .swf HAS to be on top of the audio.swf to be visible

nice work from everyone... I got the speed addon to work within a minute... but I have one small question, it shows the speed as mph, or atleast thats the label, havn't tested it yet since I havn't had time to go for a ride yet...

is there any way to change this to km/h??

**Sonicxtacy02** · 08-21-2006, 04:33 PM

the mph is not a part of the label. Assuming rr can already display in km/h here you go

thanks... that seems to do the trick... gonna take it for a spin tomorrow... need to see if RR can get the info from Xport...

maybe this is another thing for Cdr to implement in the next patch... just a new field that we can add whatever we want... this one works but it looks kind of weird when the "screen saver" kicks in....

[edit]
one more thing... I only added the line for the gps speed since I dont have any sensors or cool stuff, after the label of the speed I get a N/A... I'm guessing thats why I get that but just wanted to be sure so I didn't miss anything else... ;D

[edit 2]
@Cdr
Why oh why did u have to put simon says in there... since I'm running it on my laptop thats all I've been doing... it's driving me nuts, all I can see is flashing lights and hear thos sounds in my head...

no more driving for me, lol...

just kidding... my record is 22 so far...

The N/A is the temp label. It shows because you dont have the weather label in your skin. I'll remove it for you tomorrow.

First of all, let me say, great work on the skin CdR! 'nother fine job by u.

Not sure if this has been covered already, but is a status screen comming like there was in MC2.0?

Two, think this would be a pretty good idea. Take the game and center it to the left half of the screen. And on the right half put a mini keyboard with arrow keeys and maybe shoot one and shoot2 buttons so they're more ts friendly. ionno, was just an idea that popped in my head the other day.

not sure if someone posted this already but right now i was using the skin andi had it running video when i closed video to go into the settings using the time button on the top left the window acctuly came up inside the video screen not sure whats up with that but yeah

also video is not gong into full screen automaticly

oh yeah when you view pictures and then shut down afterwards and open it up again it resumes on the last pic but its set as your wall paper for the main screen anyway to get rid of that ?
