iGuidance options registry value - Page 2

Worked great, thanks!

By the way, my decimal value was: 159799

Cheers

131072 is the differences I got before and after turning on full screen. I want to find out if there's any way to close the tool bar window. any idea?

I believe the toolbar is coded into the iGuidance.exe file. I've tried to ResHack it out but (give the fact that I don't entirely know what I'm doing) I have not had any luck. The closest I've gotten is removing the buttons (images) but the seperators in between the images and the bar itself still shows. Been awhile since I last tried and I forgot to back up my modified iGuidance.exe before I formatted my laptop, I'm going to have to redo everything. I'll keep ya posted.

One more thing that I want to note is that iG writes to the registry quite often. After making a modification within in the program, refresh your registry to see if any changes have been made.

Now, here's a question: Will the Full-Screen hack work for 2.0? I remember Marvin posted a Full Screen hack sometime back ago dealing with full-screen but it only worked on 2.0+.

EDIT: Fixed 1.0 to 2.0 typo

Here are the bit definitions:
0x00000001 : set=compass box clr=compass arrow
0x00000002 : set=metric clr=english units
0x00000004 : set=auto switch to guidance screen clr=manual
0x00000008 : set=north up, clr=heading up
0x00000010 : set=show raw gps position as red dot
0x00000020 : set=alpha blending off clr=on
0x00000200 : set=mute
0x00000400 : set=yards clr=feet
0x00001000 : set=AMPM
0x00002000 : set=automatically cycle the statbox
0x00004000 : set=show poi names on map
0x00008000 : set=use voice prompt instead of "ding" just before a maneuver
0x00010000 : set=walking mode - ignore direction on roads
0x00020000 : set=fullscreen mode
0x20000000 : set=don't penalize turns
0x40000000 : set=don't generate maneuvers on fwy splits
0x80000000 : set=debug .. generates some internal checks .. don't use.. may
cause random crashes

Any bits not defined above are either only for the handheld version or don't presently have a meaning. Not all options work with all versions.

The above mentioned exe modification was only useful in iGuidance 2.1, which was the very first version introducing full screen mode. The exe modification added a hotkey to toggle the full screen mode. However, the following iGuidance version 2.1.1 included F-key shortcut, so this modification is no longer required ;-)

justintime · 11-14-2005, 07:53 AM

Awesome, comprehensive list! Seems to reveal some new options!!! Thanks.

Yeah. I went back and re-read your thread over there at GPS Passion. In fact, I went ahead and downloaded all nine pages of it a few days ago. Last night, I reshacked the exe and built my theme.ini from scratch. There's a lot of good information in your thread.

I've confirmed that the full-screen registry value does not work in 2.0 (sorry 1.0 was a typo in my last post) but then again 2.0 does not have a full screen option as Marvin clarified above.

Thanks for the list lincomatic. Will definitly play around with some of these settings tonight. I'm curious what 0x40000000 : set=don't generate maneuvers on fwy splits does. A few months ago I posted an issue about my location snapping back onto the highway when taking an off-ramp and then supposed to re-enter the highway going in the opposite direction (U-turn under overpass) (in demo mode). Wonder if this would fix the problem. Guess I'll have to go and find out.

How do i enter these codes? do i just count them with my current Option value? because i tryed that with the pio option, but i only see a few PIO's.... (same whitout the value)

d_sellers1 · 11-15-2005, 02:46 AM

Basically you take what ever the decimal number is currently in your Registry (It's the number in paraenthesis before you started messing with it). Add the values together. Double click the Options entry, click the circle the change from Hex to Dec and enter the number. Restart iG.

Example, my dec started out at 12308.
12308 +16 +8192=
to add the GPS dot and rotate ETA/DST box

Now with lincomatic listing, I believe, this will enable you to set all your options basically starting for zero and then adding everything up.

lazy_g · 11-15-2005, 04:16 AM

so what are the decimal settings then to display PIO's that i need to add?

Actually, the 0x40000000 value is currently obsolete. Early versions of IG would generate a maneuver at every fork of a freeway. The later versions don't need this flag, because they have smarter logic for deciding whether or not to generate a maneuver in these situations.

I left out one useful bit in my listing above, and have edited it. the definition for 0x00008000.

BTW, I prefer to do the bit math in hexadecimal. It's more straightforward for doing bit twiddling. E.g.

0x00002001 + 0x00004000 = 0x00006001

If you don't know how to do hex math, you can put Windows calculator into scientific mode to do it.

If you just want to show POI's on the map, just do it through the menus. The show poi names on map option turns on writing the names on the screen next to each poi icon.

Just take the hexadecimal value of your current options value and add 0x00004000 to it, then write it back using regedit in hex mode.

How do i do this? i cant find the menu item...

lazy_g · 11-15-2005, 04:37 PM

nervermind i just found it...

Is there a way to add stuf to the poi's? I have 2.1.2 Europe, but id does not have banks for instands... i would like to add these.

And is there a way to get Speedcams into Iguidance?
