ok, on the skin i left for downloading it already should take the warning message away, it does on mine. i embed the warning and then accept it. you will find it in the 'nroute.ini' in the root dir.

[Scripts]
;This is the startup script that tells SKINbedder what to run, embed, and skin with.
StartUp=wait(500),Run(C:\Garmin\nRoute\nroute.exe) ,Wait(200),Embed(NRNag:100),Focus(NRNag),Wait(200) ,Send(Enter),Wait(200),close(NRNag),Wait(200),Embe d(NRGPS:500),LoadSkin(NRMap:Menu_Left),LoadSkin(NR Map:Menu_Right)

the 'NRNag' dir is for the warning screen. if it does not work for you try adding a second ',Wait(200),Embed(NRNag:100),Focus(NRNag),Wait(200 ),Send(Enter),Wait(200),close(NRNag)' after the first. i found that some times it works with the second.
like this

let me know if it works.

it worked, with the second script. Is there a way to do it without using skinbedder?

nice to see nroute embedded.
thanks anyways.

Why don't you wanna use skinbedder?

sorry 0l33l, oops i mean Ol33l

, i am in the testing phase right now, i'm not sure if i'll be using it or not, but anyways its a great app you've created here.
besides, i'll have to change the skin to go with the skin i'll be using, and i still didn't makeup my mind for what i'll be using.
I kinda feel there is a problem with the transparent buttons and the way they fade in & out. don't know
there is also a problem with where you need to input text??

i'm starting to like it though

thanks SubaruWRX for that skin, i'll have to play around with it a bit.

And of course Ol33l, for skinbedder

i tried using nRoute embedded in RR and it does not work so well, the only way i found was with SB. What other way are you trying?
there is a problem with the find windows loosing focus, but my way is to use a external keyb, one of those tiny ones, and not embed the find windows as i don't need a OSK.

if you change the menus but leave the sizes the same you won't have to change the code in the ini files.

If you create better menus than me, shouldn't be too difficult, could i please get a copy.

if you need anything else let me know.
have fun

well, i hate creating graphics (i don't know how to do it). I'm sure alot of people here can help in creating buttons. In case i do, you'll be the first to get it

Use non alpha-blended graphics and it will look fine (no fading). This is a bug I am still working on. Alpha-blend graphics will work better in V3 final (but don't hold your breath, it is still months away). I am about to release V3-Preview #2 within a few days.
