Hello there,
My car PC is almost ready for navigation. I've got freedrive embedded is RR en it's great. The only thing that drives me crazy is that it crashes every time it calculates the route.
I've got the updated .exe fil in the freedrive folder.
The old freedrive always worked perfect in my old setup.
Plz help!

CDRSKULL: It would be great if you inplent the ability to use keystrokes in freedrive or through road runner. because i use an remote control.

Thanks in advanced

FreeDrive has an SDK. You can use that to control it from RR. Thats what I do.

@ Toslin : could you post here your soluce to command FD via SDK ? Thanks

@Bobcoupe : I agree with you it could be great to have keymap as in RR
Try FDKEY : http://www.freedrive.co.uk/forums/sh...9&postcount=10

With it i can almost use freedrive with a Powermate.

For crashes wrong map ? Or try desinstall reinstall Freedrive ?

Thanks alot grave!! This really helped me out!
The only problem now is that i need a way to jump from RR to FD because when freedrive gets focus i can't adjust the volume in RR anymore.

In FD Key, you can send the mouse cursor in a special area.

I use Esc to click the return button in RR

(and i also use my wheeldrive buttons to ajust volume )
