It actually works in both modes, although adjustable in just split screen

Right for fun of it, I tried one more experiment with the new v26_perspective image.

I installed the standard BMW release v26 by going back to v25 and then loading standard v26. By doing this I assumed all perspective features were removed.

I then went back (again) to v25 ....

Then I just loaded v26_perspective ... meaning no beta was loaded in the upgrade process. Sure enough, perspective view was selectable in split screen map view ....

So what did I learn by doing this ... well ... it appeared at least (in my case) that the v26.09a beta release is not required to enable perspective view using the V26_perspective image from Martin.

Hopefully you guys followed me :-)

I guess that this "upgrade" is trying to tell me something...
Does this mean Technic you're back in Euro mode again ....after you just got your car coded to USA ?

That's what I thought, but then again I never use split screen so I never saw it...

... so then this extra effort: http://www.xoutpost.com/navigation-sy...ing-north.html is redundant, because all three modes of map orientation are available in both split and full screen with this mod. No mode is eliminated...

Pointing North is available in Full Screen for selection and then it shows too in split screen if it was already selected. Perspective works the same but in reverse... selectable in split screen and present in full screen if already selected.

"Important: You can not simply do this procedure with the same version of the SW that's already on the NAV unit. If your NAV unit has V26 installed already and you create a new CD with V26 then it will not update the splash. You need to either upgrade or downgrade to a new or old unmodified version. Then re-install the newly modifed splash version of the SW. This is so the NAV unit thinks that there is a new update."

Does anyone have v25 for Alochol so I can downgrade before I upgrade?

@icemanjs4: There are several links to the V26.09A version to download. This file is smaller than a complete version, so easier to download. I use this version as a temporary version to do my updates.
