    Hollowman, your work is outstanding!!!!! ive been able to use the past threads to use sucessfully install iGO8 (Older Version Oct09 Release?), TomTom and Garmin. I actually prefer iGO.

    Anyway, im having a few issues with installing the newer core and maps above. Im using the following for the new install

    Nav N Go iGO 8 R3 series - v8.3.4.117940 (Nov 3 2009) - D/L from this thread
    Australia Sensis/Telestra R16.1 [090708] 2009 - - D/L from this thread

    Basemap.fbl - Australia.dem - Buildings.rar - TTS - All D/L from last version

    It now "hanging" on the splash screen at start up with "GEODB INITDBFILES" stuck in the bottom right hand corner. Ive googled for half the night, swapped out the POI's and speedcams also let it boot for about 1 hr as I thought there may be memory issue but it still hangs. Im not sure whats going on cos i dont get any errors as described in all the other threads on the net...

    Im using a chinese 4.7in Wince 5.0.

    Any suggestions?

    replace what you have on your sys.txt with this:

    [map]
    3d_max_tiltlevel=10000
    3d_max_zoomlevel=3000
    3d_min_zoomlevel=40
    3d_max_zfar=2000

    [smartzoom]
    minangle=0
    maxangle=80

    work_dir="\SD Card\iGO8.3"
    mortscript="\SD Card\iGO8.3\Themechanger0\MortScript.exe"

    [map]
    3dcarsizemin=700
    3dcarsizemax=7500
    3dcarsizemul=90000

    delete olso the [truck] [default] entry if your not using truck ...back up everything first..

    Did you download the data and branding zipped on this thread? if not download it and replace what you have...

    or open Data zipped - project_config - igo8_generic open with notepad and change the numbers to the size you like...let say change 0.5 then try it out...

    [3d]
    guidancearrow_first_size=1.1
    guidancearrow_first_alpha=24

    back up first

    If you don't see a difference after chaning your data.zip duke55 make sure your basemap.fbl file is intact (recopy it to the sd). You may want to try removing any Saved or logged (Track files) from the old install if you didn't do a clean install aswell.

    IGo8 is an excellent navigator program, up there with the best. Unfortunately it has become degraded by going over to the WhereIs/Sensis map data, which is OK in Melbourne and Sydney but hopeless anywhere else. It has a long way to go to get up to the standard of the former NavTeq data.

    Again thanks to HollowMan for his magnanimous work.

    Why would they do that, they are only icons made by me?

    The file you are trying to access is temporarily unavailable.

    I have setup the speed camera warning to go off on approach with an audible warning. The problem is that only the alert sound works (a ringing sound), if I select English male/female in the select speed camera language section no audible voices alert me. Is there a fix for this?

    How do I disable the No left/right turn arrow in the top left corner, options in Show turn restrictions are "off route only" & "always". Using Dimka skin.
    I don`t want it as I know not to turn left from the right hand lane.

    You can also change the typical alert sound for speed camera by rotating through the 5 alert sounds and picking it in the sys.txt somewhere. Mine is like a submarine periscope sound. Sorry I can't find the exact code atm.
