I am not sure if I understood.
My skin does contain the igo8_generic.ini file, I have done it my self.
I think that I have to add someting else, which seems to be missing, to my skin, but I don't know what!!!!!

What is the skin.cfg file ? Where can I find it and where to put it?

Thanks again.

Thank you very much grijamor,

Now, I am trying to produce my own skin with a bigger fonts.

For this purpose, I have extracted the project_config (project_config/igo8_generic.ini & igo8_pda.xxx) from the data.zip into my skin (zip file, of course).
But it doesn't change the font size.

What am I doing wrong??!!

Thanks again.

As I guess to know zip skins does not contain the igo8_generic.ini file, doesn´t it? At least in Dymka skin is missed, anyway this parameter is used in order to increase or decrease the 3d font streets, if you want to vary the font of 2d streets into the screen map navigation you have to use this parameter;

[2d]
mapfontscale=140 (or whatever the value you want to...)

Apart from your zip skin you have to add this parameter (roadsign_lines_per_screen=15) into your data folder (project_config/igo8_generic.ini), for landscape mode try with 10 value (bigger font) and if needed add the same parameter with the same value into your sys.txt file. Realize that igo8 program obey the running files by this order;

1.skinzip folders
2.sys.txt file
3.datazip file
4.skincfg file

so be sure there is no contrary values in the same parameters that had been included before in any of these files.

Hope this was helpful for you,

I don´t know what to say, even if your zip skin does not contain these parameters, if you place them into your data folder or sys.txt file and run your skin at the same time these parameters do work but I do not know how can you get it to work in your zip skin without depending on datazip folder and sys.txt file.....................

Added a small but needed fix for 480x800, see main post. Stupid I never noticed it.

The same problems exist for 800X480. Could you please look at that also?

Why would you still want to use an obsolete version, just upgrade to 8.3

[dxdy]

thx.... but i not ask for this reason.... major reason is device with original iGO8 8.0.0....

[LZF]

Upgrade it to the cracked 8.3 version, it will work better for sure than the original version you got with your device. Not to mention recent map updates which NNG refuses to give to users who official bought 8.0.

[dxdy]

not my device and not my original version but i told this to guy...

Hi All,

I'm not one for major modding of skins, unless its radically different and looks utterly mind blowing.

Hence why I like this skin, this skin is basically the original, minus the annoying bits that NNG put in, like splash screen and so on....

However is there a way to make this original skin work with vocal speedcams like some of the mod skins do. I think this skin, with the vocal speedcams "Warning Gatso ahead, speed limit 50mph" like that would be ace...??

Whats the chances of making one like that...?? or maybe two... original skin like this, and original + skin, that has vocal alerts...??

Cheers,

Lister

The latest "b" version does not show the street numbers while navigating. Is there a way I can enable that? (I had an older data.zip which had this feature)

LZF please add 720x480 if it's possible thanks you in advance

Could someone please post a Sys.txt file for the Omnia?...Thanks

Hi friends!
I am a gj_5.x skin user and have this problem: by power management (backlight options) I prefer use always "Smart" powersave to achieve a longer battery life but I would like to have the screen light up by following events too:
1. Lane information (and signposts showing)
2. Speedcam alerts
TMC alerts work fine with screen light up by smart powersave setting. Is it necessary to put anything on the sys.txt file? Please help. Thanks a lot and best regards, pheco
