Exclamation Destinator 3 Frontend v1.1.3 BETA

This is a BETA version of the frontend, if you wish to participate in the test, BACK UP YOUR CURRENT DESTINATORAPPS FOLDER.

With that done with...

Code:
Version History [v1.1.3 BETA] *New Features* -------------- -Advanced GPS Mode If you have a NMEA GPS receiver, you can now connect destinator using an advanced mode where information such as speed, heading and number of satellites is available. If you use the winsock control, you can even retrieve the entire NMEA string. -Speed Camera Detection The frontend can now notify you of approaching speed cameras. Cameras can also be easily added to the database via a button on the main toolbar -Automatic Update of Speed cameras When connected via the winsock control, you can opt to be notified of any approaching cameras. This is useful for custom applications. -Scroll map with hotkeys You can define hotkeys to scroll the map and also return to the home position. -Fullscreen Mode A hotkey can be defined to enter and exit fullscreen mode. You can also choose to always start in fullscreen. -Reconnect GPS on power resume When returning from standby or hibernate, you can choose to automatically reconnect the GPS. -Navigate Button There is now a navigate button on all dialogs at the bottom right of the screen -Manual Destination You can now route to specific longitude and latitude coordinates. -Speed Display The current speed can be overlayed on top of the mapping window -Customisable Infobar Most aspects of the infobar can now be edited (fonts, colors, positions) by modifying the skin. -Destinator Skins Each skin can now have it's own individual "Destinator Skin" allowing you to change the scrollbar / fonts / internal buttons of destinator without effecting other skins. -Line Mute on Maneuevers As well as Winamp and Frodo control when approaching a maneuver, You can now optionally mute a sound line on your system. (Wave, Mic, Line-in etc..) -Volume Control Buttons can now be added to a skin to control the master volume -New Voice Pack A new voice pack from the PPC version has been included called 'UK' -New Winsock Control A newer version of the Microsoft Winsock Control (MSWINSCK.OCX) has been included. This should fix any compatability problems with other applications and help with performance issues. *Changes / Fixes* ----------------- -Client/Frontend Merge The client and frontend have been merged into a single application. This will greately increase the speed of operation. -ETA/ETR The Estimated Times were being incorrectly calculated. It has now been fixed. -Button Click Simulation not working when embedded This has now been fixed. -Zooming Loop The map scale would reset to max if you zoomed in too far. This has now been fixed. -TMC Disabled by default TMC is now disabled by default in the configuration file due to unsuccessfull testing. -New Hotkeys Hotkeys have been added to perform many new functions - such as; -Cycle Through a dialog -Toggle Map Color Mode -Toggle Map Orientation -Add a speed camera -New Winsock Commands Many winsock commands have been added to enable lots more control from a custom application. Please see the development folder for further information. -Custom OSK Keys You can now add custom characters to the on screen keyboard without needing to replace the preset keys -Various other undocumented bugs have been fixed

I've not got time to write a quick FAQ right now, so just install and start playing... "Advanced GPS" is what you want to enable for the good stuff

Destinator 3 1.1.3 BETA - Full Package [12.0MB]

Enjoy!

Edit: If you're getting errors about missing TABCTL32.OCX, download it here

If you hare using XP , move the TABCTL32.OCX to windows/system32,
Then start , run , regsvr32 \windows\system32\TABCTL32.OCX
Then you can configure D3

if i am pressing The Arrow in the right corner or trying to use any buttons in the menu, i get the message that windows has closed it down, and i can send a fail report. etc.

I also get this fail on my 2 laptops (XP SP2), and also with the earlier version of D3

What OS is on your laptops, never heard this one before

Also, please don't post any more problems / bugs in this thread.

Are questions ok for here? anyways, I finally got Sirf mode, which seems to have helped get better usage of GPS support here in sao paulo... locks are more reliabel apparently, with the ton of buildings in the area...

Anyways, advanced gps is just for nmea? any technical reason for that or is it just that sirf isnt ready yet? what are the differences? can i use speed cams in sirf? what are the other advantages of advanced mode?

It's just for NMEA I'm afraid.

Advanced Mode will enable you to do the following:

Detect speed cameras
Overlay your current speed on the map
Display the number of satellites on the infobar

The rest is really for developers (the full nmea string can be queried, along with speed cameras, current heading etc.)

damn..... but nmea is slower than sirf right? will it ever be possible to support sirf? I dont see why it couldnt if all the information, speed, heading, etc is still available when using sirf.... can you share the limitation with us curious folk? I guess i might have to go back to nmea then!
