Lightbulb Centrafuse Launcher (Fixes Map Movement)

I've written a D3 Launcher for centrafuse that will workaround the map not moving problem

I've only given it a quick test so your feedback would be appreciated.

Simply copy the EXE into your Frontend_BETA3 folder and then in centrafuse:

Point your GPS application to : C:\DestinatorApps\Frontend_BETA3\CFD3Launcher.exe
Set the GPS Window Title to : CFD3

Also, ensure that Plugin support is enabled and "Set size & Position" is disabled in Destinator configuration.

What this won't currently do

Although the launcher will only run if centrafuse is running, when centrafuse is closed it doesn't send the correct message to quit applications and freezes the app...so the closing problem still remains. This needs to be fixed in centrafuse.

Hi there,

Great job in getting it going, only one slight problem. When i went to change the the volume in centrafuse the navigation window dissapeared and alll i could see was the ninja monkey splash screen. I exited centrafuse and the window was then shown for destinator.

When you clicked volume the destinator window should have dissapeared but then reappeared after a brief moment, if it didn't then there's something wrong with your setup, it works fine here.

Like I said, this is a workaround not a solution. It's just so you guys using centrafuse can at least have destinator working until we figure this thing out

NM, You da Man !!!

Can't wait for "Map Monkey", although I like Gorilla Guidance myself.

Keep up the awesome work.

Hi,

i experience the same behaviour as skydiver. Whenever i press a "centrafuse-button" the map disapears and only the splash screen is visible. A single tap in the "maparea" brings it back.

My problems with the osk have disappeared, so i guess it was my error in configuration.

@ clkraj same here but wait for the correct fix in CF 1.13. That will fix it I'm sure.
