So if you can't see the background open up the skin.ini file (iGoBMW skin folder) and remove the space from the name.

Thanks, that worked.

Very nice, will get around to downloading it and trying it in the car...

Glad to see your utilizing the ibus functions in the skin

Been using this for a little while and this is an awesome skin. Any further developments?

dan32500 · 04-13-2008, 05:08 PM

I've done since the release:
1. the obc screen with analog gauges and info from the mileage plugin..
2. ilists (a bit buggy - list goes blank after resume)
2. visualizer in audio player
will release an update maybe this week...

This is an awesome skin. I've been using it for a few days and it's now my main skin! Thanks for the credits for iBusRR. It's been a while since I updated it but now my car is out of storage w/ a brand new carpc installed so i'll be looking for some new functions to add.

Is there a way you could add a transparent visualisation (low opacity) on the menu skin that would replace the background?

I had no idea you could limit the speed with the ibus. Where did you find these codes?

WaRFiElD · 04-14-2008, 12:55 PM

The speed limit codes are for the factory navigation unit if I remember right. It sets a beeper after a certain speed. Don't worry it won't apply your brakes on the highway until you're down to 50kmh

Sorry to thread jack (It is kinda relevant o your skin tho

), but WaRFiElD you ibusRR is based on the original ibus comm that supports both keyboard & RR commands, i see in your version keyboard is removed from the ini. I have got the phone button to send a key command instead of sending a RR command

This is the comparison I mean

IbusRR ini=

Code:

;Steering Wheel PHONE Press
[ID:STW_PHONE_PRES]
MsgTemplate="5004C83B8027"
KeyboardMap="MUTE"

IbusCOMM.ini

Code:

[ID:STW_PHONE_PRES]
MsgTemplate="5004C83B8027"
Label="S.Wheel PHONE Press"
Parse=True
KeyboardMap="{F2}"
;RRCommand=""

Your version will still work after hibernation as the ibuscomm version has to be restarted after hibernate otherwise it doesnt work. If i replace the ini is it still compatible?

I don't think so, I know I can have a trasparent vis but that will be on top of all layers not under like a background.

I use iGuidance and was thinking of using this skin. However, when I start up the GPS, it doesn't launch the App. Other skins work fine. Any ideas why? Thanks.

WaRFiElD · 04-29-2008, 11:31 AM

@dan32500: is it possible to release the iList version of your skin? I'm working on a new version of iBusRR with scroll support from the steering wheel on the audio player/browser skin and I'd like to see if it works well on an iList.

thank you!

WaRFiElD · 04-29-2008, 11:35 AM

@jonessc: The current version of iBusRR only support sending COM commands to RR. However, if RR supports sending keystrokes (which I don't know) you could probably bind a command to a keystroke in ExecTBL.ini

Open skin's ExecTBL.ini and comment out the "GPS" line. (add a slash '/' in front).

UPDATE:
I released a more complete version with OBC and SETTINGS screens done... see first post for download link.

@WaRFiElD: IbusRR stoppend workin for some time in my car.. need to check, could be the cable connection.
