Igo8 on Binatone 350

hi
I have igo8 on binatone 350 with kikker3.2 skin.
the problem is that this skin does not have a car but a cursor which I cant see it most of the time.

please is there a skin for igo8 that have a car not a cursor and have speedcam voice and sound alert. I tried few but apart the kikker skin none of them have speecam voice that says speedcam 30 miles per hour and sound alert at the sometime.
thanks

Gurjon skin and DimKa skin do exactly what you want.
Note that you need to instal the sound files.

However, you could add a car cursor, independant of the skin, thus in Kikker also: http://www.navitotal.com/showthread.php?962-How-To-s-Tutorials-and-Tweaks&p=22611#post22611

hi
i tried those 2 skin but they only give sound alert for speedcam not voice with speed limit and sound.
I would prefer to had a car cursor but the links on the post are dead.

For [color="#FF0000"]that[/color], you probably need an appropriate TTS voice.

Note that your PATH statements would have to be correct for YOUR device/setup.

No, not necessarily. One only needs the voice warning files. I have them for my language and they work perfectly on my Gurjon skin (I had to rename female to male and vice versa for my preferred voice to be heard (volume) though). Available on the DimKa website ([Please Register or Login to download file] ). There is also a manual how to install.
As I said, my speedcam warning voice works perfectly !!

DimKa has a standard Mini as a car cursor. Other cars are possible too. Just look on the DimKa download page.

hi
i tried dinka skin but the speedcam voice wont work. I added the audio folder and the voice script but when i select the alert voice, only one voice i can select Italian which i installed but when test it wont work.

Then i installed GJ6.6p skin which i like, because it has a car cursor. but i need the voice script file. because the one that i use with kikker skin dont work. please if any one knows where i can download the speedcam voice script for GJ6.6p skin. I need the english and the italian.
thanks

1. GJ 6.6?? Latest is 6.18 or 6.19 I believe.
2. What iGO build are you using?
3. Those voices on the dimka website should work. Did you setup as instructed here: [Please Register or Login to download file] Thus in iGO root an AUDIO folder, then in that folder an IT folder with the male and female voice folders.

hi
my build is igo8 8.3.5183522 march 16 2011
i tried gj6.17p i put the speedcam voice alert as the photo that you posted, but it does not give me any voice or audio warning only visual. i tried diMKa vert v 1.1.43 it gives me just voice alert but no audio. although when i select speedcam alert and test it the sound is present. i really would like kikker 3.2 skin if i could add a car cursor,but i tried but it does not work. im looking for igo 8 may 2011 build multi resolution my resolution is 320x240 but all links are dead.

Hmm. It works every where else as far as I know.
By the way, did you try on the road? Sound/voice alertsdo not work in simulation mode.

About the car cursor: I found this old thread by you: http://www.navitotal.com/showthread.php?7786-Car-cursor-in-IGO8.

On the other site you are visiting and asking about kikker, don't they have alive links?
And do you really need a car shaped cursor? Eye candy? You should keep the eyes on the road :D

hi
yes i tried on the road . kikker stopped lomg time ago make skin last one was 3.2
i need a cursor because in kikker skin in 3D there is no cursor at all shown. hope full i will find a link to igo8 may 2011 build
thanks

There is no car change in the May Igo8 version. Cars do not work with the Kikker skin. Dimka only I believe. There is an old file [download] for cars without having to use a skin but I think that all the links everywhere are completely dead. My cursor in my March version works fine in 3D.

When you only need a cursor and the triangle is okay, but is missing, maybe it's because it is to small?
The size can be changed in sys.txt, maybe some lines in your sys.txt cause the wrong size

Please know that everything completely depends upon the speedcam txt that you have in content\speedcam. Most txts are set-up as 4-way. So, as you approach, you will probably receive information from your device even though you are not heading in that direction. If you take a look [open] the speedcam.txt, there should be a section regarding direction that can be edited. Remember though, that after editing it might be necessary to delete the save folder and re-create it with all your present options. So if you want to try editing, I suggest that you back-up your save folder to your computer or re-name your save folder to another name - saveold or something like that. Let us know how you make out.

EDIT: Found this elsewhere:

Downloaded iGO text file can be edited with Notepad (Windows users)
It has the following header line: X,Y,TYPE,SPEED,DIRTYPE,DIRECTION

Explanation:

X = longitude
Y = latitude
TYPE = type of speed camera ( 1 - fixed speed camera locations; 2 - combined red light and speed cameras; 3 - fixed red light camera locations; 4 - section camera positions; 5 - lasers, hand-held radars and other mobile speed camera locations; 6 - railway crossing; 7 - not constant mobile locations)
SPEED = speed limit in km/h
DIRTYPE = type of direction of the speedcam (0-all directions; 1-one direction; 2-both directions)
DIRECTION = direction in degrees (0-North; 90-East)

DIRTYPE and DIRECTION are optional fields

hi
thanks for reply
i got the latest european speedcam text. this is an example of the first lines:
X,Y,TYPE,SPEED,DIRTYPE,DIRECTION
1.5594400,42.5219400,1,60,0,0
1.5255600,42.5163900,1,60,0,0
1.5243100,42.5186100,2,60,0,0
1.5305600,42.5119400,1,60,0,0
so which number should i change to make them my direction only. also is there a way to identify the uk speedcam because i just want to change the uk. also the satnav shows a speedcam in some street with 100mile speed limits but i know that there are no speedcam there. does this depends od the speedcam text file and is there any way to correct i know that there are none
