OK. I'm confused with ur situation.
Does the program open up in DFX? Does the program open up outside DFX?
or is the program not finding your GPS coordinates? Have you split your GPS ports. To me, 18 seems to high for a GPS port. Try to keep everything below 10.

I remember reading in the 2.5 thread somewhere that Com ports needed to be less than 10 to work with xport correctly.

Wow - I've been out of the country for the last 6 months, away from my truck and this hobby, and have just pulled my truck out of the garage and decided to take a look at this forum.

The last time I used this skin it was still at 2 - with only rumors of a 3.0 version. JohnWPB - this thing has progressed into a work of art! I hit you up with another donation - everybody else, if you're using this as your regular skin, you should really consider donating. That list of names seems awfully short to me after seeing what this last version looks like.

Anyway -I've had no issues so far, but I'll be putting this through the wringer as I have a road trip this week from ATL down to Miami - plenty of time to get acquainted again.

Ok, I think I've got the signal meters sorted out, but I can't verify because I'm at work. Anyone want to try it out and let me know?

Outstandign Skin.... I've gotten nothing done at work, and my children felt neglected last night.
You deserve mad Kudos ! ! !

Thanks for being an enabler, and helping with my addiction

There are just SO MANY options available, (Sorting, Searching, 10 Disk Changers, Virtual play lists, browsing modes, Ratings, all with a database that stores everything so it is lightning fast!) I could fill 2 screens with just buttons to take advantage of everything that it can do! If all goes well, this should, and hopefully will be available in the next release.

Just you guys wait.... and you thought DFX 3.0 Couldn't possible get any better... If I get this kinda feedback from john about the media plugin, that in itself speaks of great things still to come!!

Hmm.. task manager.. I can kill a process when viewing in task manager....
but, in open windows, whenn click end task button, it just removes the name and the process still running...

Can anyone confirm this?

ding0 · 03-11-2008, 03:46 PM

I've been trying to get iGuidance 4.0 running on my desktop correctly using DFX 3.0 since John posted the link with partial success. It seems to run ok but the buttons: Toggle North - doesn't work at all; Zoom + & Zoom - work but only on about 1 click in 5.

Below is a text file indicating the steps I took and the RR.ini file. Could someone PLEASE look this over and tell me what I've done wrong?

DSX Things Done (from the help file):
- Open the skin folder/Scripts and find the AutoLaunch.ini file. Open it in notepad. Change the drive letter to your CD.DVD Drive. Now, when you insert a CD/DVD in the drive it will automatically play. When ejected, it will resume the song you were listing to, at the position it was at before you inserted the CD.

In the skin folder. there is a folder named Support Files, "theme.ini". Place that in the root of your iGuidance directory (C:\Program Files\iNav\iGuidance\) to change the colors, road widths ect to mimic the look of Google maps. This is a much cleaner look, and does not look as "Cartoonish" as the default iGuidance colors and road widths.

Run Roadrunner

see if you have the process cftmon.exe running in taskmanager, if you do kill it.

EDIT*all of your sendkeys behave this way right? not just n, +, and - , does the keyboard work?

I think it's...com port needs to be less than 10 for Iguidance to work correctly

Curious smitty when you say everything works perfect what did you test.

Which 3dlogos did you use.. Try the b&w_wall clock did it close when clicked.
did you get signal readings in the wireless skin?
did your gps program pause when giving directions?
did your menu in the IE browser have a shawdoeed to the word menu?
did your jukebox not let you delete a file you downloaded
did most of the songs you try and download say not there.
did the screen cleaner exit correctly for you..
did you have any issues with xm not showing signals.

if all that works please send me your ini file and ya hardware descriptions..

my guess is he didn't try everything, just what he uses...if not, I would also be curious how you got the wireless stats to show and how you got cdrip to work.

Confirmed

EDIT:: SOLVED

Thanks to treetop777, nigwhyrito, and BREWDOG52 - these are fixed (my issues).

Edited the skins file for the temp sensors, and installed flash via IE instead of firefox to fix the flash.

==================

Ok - ran into one problem and have one request, I've searched and don't see this so far (but I'm sure someone will show me wrong as soon as I post.)

The problem is on the wallpaper selection screen - I see a white box where I assume some sort of live preview should be as so:

And the request - is there any way to lose the temperature sensor headings on the main screen (circled below)? If not, no biggie...

Thanks!!!

Use the skin editor

or delete these lines from menu.skin & menu2.skin

L,516,4,71,25,#DFX1R#,#DFX1G#,#DFX1B#,16,"Arial"," TEMP2","left"
L,408,4,101,25,#DFX1R#,#DFX1G#,#DFX1B#,16,"Arial", "=Computer:","right"
