    Default Igo8 Skins

    Hi, I have just loaded Igo8 onto my new (DVD GSP wince 5 os screen res 800x480 ) unit as per Hollowmans posts ( Thanks Hollowman ). All is great accept I cannot open the skins file. Do I have the folder in the wrong place ? ( igo8/content/skin ).Is the high screen res a problem ? Any ideas would be much appreciated.
    Cheers

    is your problem you cannot change the skin? open setting then there is next page on the right... click on the MENU and from there you can change the skin....but make sure the skin you installed supported the resolution of your unit...you can check inside the skin zipped fine under ui_igo8..hope tis help

    I just had a look through the files. None of them support my screen res.I guess I'll have to do a search to see if there are any available that support 800x480. Thanks for the help KuKuK.

    You need to look in the igo folder in the skin to see if your res is ther.
    if so try adding the skin file name into save/sys.in

    That normally means they do not match your resolution.

    how you put skin on folder skin, do not unrar or extract it, if you extract or unrar, it won't activve.

    then add up sys.txt

    [interface]
    skin="ui_igo8_da" ( make sure check on data and skin same as " ui_igo8_da" or "ui_igo8"
    resolution_dir="480_234"
    vga=0
    maxzoom2d=6000000
    show_exit=1
    laneinfo_signpost_enabled=1
