    Default Help with the IGO blue arrow

    Hi, I have a Chinese 7" HD gps running iGo8.3.2.96054, and WertVRV v 1.1.45 or diMkaspecter v 1.1.26 skin. The gps runs fine and I only run in 2d mode, with the big blue arrow. Is there anyway to make this arrow smaller maybe half as big? Any help would be appreciated?

    The following 5 lines in sys.txt has an influence on the size of the 3d arrow (and 3d car).

    [map]
    3d_scale_carmodel=
    3dcarsizemin=
    3dcarsizemax=
    3dcarsizemul=

    To Remove Arrow below Car Icon (when using Skin)

    Add this to sys.txt:

    [map]
    3d_scale_carmodel=1
    3dcarsizemin=1800
    3dcarsizemax=2400
    3dcarsizemul=1200


    To change it into a circle with an arrow inside

    [3d]
    show_guidance_arrows=1
    show_guidance_strips=0
    car_day = "car_blaupunkt.mdl"
    car_night = "car_blaupunkt.mdl"

    Thanks Bazzie. I have seen that info before but I only use my gps in 2d mode. I have just tried adding the following, but the arrow is just the same:-
    [2d]
    minguidancearrowsize=20
    maxguidancearrowsize=45

    Idea... change the viewing angle in 3d mode to the same. and try the fix?

    or


    [2d]
    maxcarsize = 137
    mincarsize = 110

    Default How to REMOVE the 3D Car icon and leave only the arrow?

    I just register and signed in. Many Thanks to Receiving me.

    I just updated my MULTILASER GPS Tracker TV 7 Inchs to iGo8 and I'm loving it.


    I would like to remove the 3D Car Icon and leave only one arrow in its place.

    Thanks a lot,
