Oh man! This software is fantastic!
I just got through testing it on my laptop and its been working great.
It even works when I use my bluetooth headset as the input.

SWEET! I hope to do some upgrades to it today like combining the INI files, and making a configurable directory.

About the input - you can thank microsoft for that

would this work with iguidance also, since they are basically the same prog. Im guessing if someone has iguidance, not routis , we would have to wait until u change the hardcoded for the routis folder.

Please fix it to work with iguidance

Here is an idea for you. I'm sure you already thought of it. I'm no programmer, The only language I know well enough is PHP. Couldnt you just set a user definable variable and call it in your ini file for the computer to respond to? Rather than editing 300+ entries to change "Navigation" to "Computer"??? Just an idea...

Ok. Here's the new version. It is renamed, renamed all files to RoutisVoice. Combined the INI files, also put in the name and directory as configurable. Sorry, no config, but its very easy to figure out

Also made favorites from 200-250 to 200-299 and places from 300-350 to 300-399.

iguidance - does it have an nag screen? I think its based on Routis, so it should work. I think it has some extra POIs, and the whole POI system is redesigned.

For changing "navigation" to "computer" open up notepad, open up RoutisVoice.xml and then go to edit -> replace. But I'm sure you though of that

I've tested most of the commands and so far its been understanding me accurately.
But it doesn't recognize when I say "navigation three d view 1" or 2 or 3.

Also, how would I be able to get it so set my destination to a favorite, such as home, and begin routing?

Try saying "navigation three d view 1". mine also has trouble recognizing it. You can also change it to something that the computer will understand better like "navigation view 1" or something.

To get it to a fav, set the fav in the RoutisVoice.ini file. For example, in the file I have now:
place201_city=los angeles
place201_street=bentley
place201_adress=1745
So you go to RoutisVoice.ini and you will see that it represents " <p VAL="201">navigation destination mark</p> " As you can see both has 201 - the recognizer. So when you say "navigation destination mark" it will activate number 201 - which accesses the INI file and loads the the above info.

awesome. Got the favorites set and it works like a charm. Can you make a command to 'clear destination' if you already have a route drawn that you no longer need.

Also, do you have paypal?

...

I figured out what is wrong. It needs to be "one" and not "1".
I changed "navigation three d view 1" to "navigation view one" and it works perfect!

yep, you do. 0l33l's software makes routis a billion times better.

Big Zack · 09-09-2004, 11:53 AM

0l33l, you are the man!

And for those that were asking about iGuidance, yes it works! (iG 2.0)

Question: Does RoutisVoice.exe launch Routis? It doesn't launch iG2, but with the .ini entry to the executable and your earlier question about iG having a nag screen I assume it is supposed to launch the app. (and to answer your question, yes iGuidance 2.0 does have the “Warning – don’t enter data while driving” nag screen)

Suggestion: option to auto-minimize RoutisVoice.exe to the system tray on launch.

Thanks again 0l33l, excellent program. Let me know if I can assist you with any iGuidance testing.

Cool, lets see this program evolve into an integral part of Routis/Iguidance
