Hi all,

I've just got Primo 1.2 working all all is great.

However, I can't get it to skip the EULA.

I've added skip_eula=1 to the [debug] section of sys.txt (and the [interface] section) but it still comes up when it starts.
It's not a deal breaker as everything else seems to be working well.

Anyone got any ideas? Or can someone confirm that skip_eula is still the correct parameter for 1.2.

Cheers.

[debug]
skip_eula=1

Should work. It does not, however, belong in the [interface] section. Many times, repetition in sys.txt can have unpredictable results.
Maybe post the entire contents of your sys.txt file, so we can see if there are any other potential conflicts.

Thanks for that.

I did some more investigating and looking in the .ini file for my device (in data.zip) - myguide4228.ini - I found this parameter in the [interface] section:
drive_carefully=1

So I started off with a simple sys.txt of just a debug section with skip_eula=1. That worked.
As soon as I added
[device]
type="myguide4228"it asked me to accept the "drive carefully" screen.

So I added
[interface]
drive_carefully=0
and it went away again!

[edit] So I guess I was getting confused between the "Drive Carefully" screen, and the EULA screen.

So my full, working, sys.txt is

Spoiler: Show

[device]
type="myguide4228"

[debug]
skip_eula=1
cache=2048
disable_outlookpoi=1
show_performance=0
reserve_memory=2500000

[folders]
has_secondary_root=0

[interface]
show_exit=1
;extra_settings=1
drive_carefully=0

[other]
demo_enabled=0

[vr]
disabled=1

[tts]
tts_buffer=131072
announce_exit_directions=1
tts_logics=3
priority="HIGH"
always_say_road_names=1
announce_street_name=1
skip_exit_numbers=0
expected_engine_delay=1400

That is a very tidy and efficient sys.txt, so as long as everything works how you want it to, I would not suggest changing anything there.
However, unless your hardware device actually IS a "MyGuide Model 4228", you may not even need the [Device] section at all since it's only purpose is to load some pre-defined settings for any specific hardware that may also be in an ini file contained in the data.zip. Many devices (especially the more generic or unknown) work better without the [Device].

PS, The reason MyGuide (and others) now tend to 'force' the Drive Carefully start up message is only for their own company liability. So that if somebody drove off a cliff because "The GPS said to" they can't say they weren't warned first to watch the road once in a while. And their lawsuit would probably fail.

great post. Used this to get rid of the 'drive carefully' screen
on a myguide 3218
