LSX....formerly LS3.0

Freedrive support

If you want to use freedrive(frontend to Destinator) as your GPS
download this file and extract into the LSX SKIN folder and overwrite

also, download the freedrive skin from LS3.0 (there will be a small update to this in the future)
copy the files inside into your freedrive install skin folder and set the skin to be used inside of FD as LS3

you also will also need the fonts from LS3
copy these into your windows fonts folder



##############
small update addon, popup menu that replaces the mousewheelinput support with a native RR screen.
So clicking the TIME (on any screen you see the time) in the TOP LEFT corner will bring up the popup menu.
This will be the new default option instead of mousewheelinput, but can be toggled between the two from ExecTBL.ini
COPY THE CONTENTS OF THE RAR FILE INTO THE LSX SKIN FOLDER, thats it.
have fun.

LINK





************************************************** *********
link for latest update is found below. All previous requirements are the same.
whats new:
mostly changes/fixes to all the .skin files
added some entries to the ExecTBL.ini file
added a new GPS speedo to the nav screen
removed the volume and track slider from GPS screen
fixed the SIRUS screen, it worked before but the layout was screwed up.
added another small preview of a new skin im working on called LSX VOID, click the empty area at the top of the main menu to see the preview, the local version of the preview is about 50% done, ive only included the main and alt menu in the preview.
various other things i cant remember right now.

There will be another update to finish off some things i didnt get time to get to in this update, like the weather radar images and grafics tweaks to the options menu.








*******************
Although i dont consider the skin finished, there are still a few astetic things i want to change, fix etc, plus a few minor config things.
But for the most part the skin is very useable. So here it is, happy christmas!

Edit the ExecTBL.ini file found inside the skin folder to edit all the paths to applications etc. The file should be easy to edit, i tried to comment it a little for those not used to editing this file.
There are also skins for mobile emulator , mouse wheel input, support for IGuidance via skinbedder, NOTE use the skinbedder that is supplied with the skin inside the LSTOOLS folder.
Also note the LSTOOLS folder MUST be in the root of your RR install, none of the other requirements from the last version are valid anymore.
Also note, there is a KeyTBL.ini file that needs to overwrite the one inside your RR install, if you have key commands already present you'll want to merge these files together before you copy over.

USAGE: things that arent obvious:
anywhere you see the TIME, or MWI clicking this area will invoke MOUSE WHEEL INPUT which has icons and definitions for navigating RR (optional) MWI can be downloaded from the PhoCo site
clicking in the empty space at the top of the Main Menu will invoke mini mode
clicking in the empty space at the top of the OPTIONS screen will invoke the Black screen, usefull for when you dont want to see anything at night
clicking the speed inside of the AUDIO player will replace the playlist with a larger speed display and heading info
by default clicking the FULL button inside of the GPS screen will put IG in 100% fullscreen mode and all RR controls will not be present, a small button will pop up for you to return to the previous screen. This is can be changed to launch a secondary GPS screen with minimal buttons.
clicking the "The Weather Channel" logo inside the weather screen will invoke satalite images for weather, this is very much still beta, edit the scripts inside LSTOOLS to change the sat images to your local.
To make the speedos and gps speed work, you will need a GPS port splitter such as XPORT, set your GPS mode to Mappoint in RRConfig and also set the GPS port.

Cant really think of anything else so have fun, if you have any problem or issues as allways post them here and ill try to help you out, but not likely today as its christmas
I stayed up till 5in the morning wrapping presents and working on this skin, so i hope you all enjoy it. There will be updates and updated Freedrive support in the coming days.

later

In the skin's general.ini change:
ShowWidth=800
ShowHeight=480
to
ShowWidth=800
ShowHeight=600

LS3.0 stretches very nicely. I'm REALLY looking forward to seeing LSX. Thanks for all the hard work liquid_smoke!

make sure you are changeing the file correctly.
In almost every case where it didnt work for someone they didnt change the file right.
ONLY change
ShowWidth=800
ShowHeight=600
leave the OriginalWidth and OriginalHeight alone
There will not be a native 800x600 ver.

as far as how long the suspence will last, hopefully not long, thats why i posted the thread cuz i think i may be close. also note, just in case anyone has the wrong idea, LSX is NOT a all new skin, it is LS3.0 beta5 renamed to LSX once its nolonger beta5. There are a lot of changes from the current version and the thread for the current version is out of control and way too long (thats why i locked it). Start off fresh.
