- The colour for the 'haze' is actually taken from the colour of the last line of the sky jpeg. I inverted a 'test' image - see attached.
- I still have no idea about the North N & arrow, text colour on the map itself...

That's the end to my modding (until someone else finds the location of the colours I can't change).

The dark brown scheme looks great at night and doesn't require me dimming the interior lights to be comfortable on the eyes. Of course when you do dim the interior lights it is very dark indeed.

Hi Paul,

Would you mind sharing the rom_col_2 & rom_col_3 modules with your really nice nighttime brown color set up with the rest of us here? I'd also like to have a nighttime color set and there's no point in me trying to reinvent the wheel since you've already done the work. The exported rom_col_2 & rom_col_3 modules would be very small in size and so they should be quite easy for you to share.

Thanks!

-- MIKE

Dont' know if this information is on topic but i've been working on how to listen the voice Data of the navi firmware on my PC.

I read the Sound Files in csf Format with a text editor. On the first Line you can read about oki MSM6585. I Found this is an sound device (IC) for Voice outputs. It's working with ADPCM Formats at various bit rates.

So i used my Sound Editor (Adobe Audition, other will work too if able to open ADPCM files) to open an renamed csf File. You'll have to rename it to*.vox instead of *.csf and open as *.vox File. Adobe Audition is asking about the sample format during opening of the file. If you select 16000 as sample frequency you can listen to the opened audio file like on your navi.

Perhaps it is possible to edit these sound files to get own voices. I will try to find out more an will post my results here.

As far as i can say there are two different alert sound signals in the files. I'm still dreaming on starting an sound when approaching to a speed trap ) If only i could trigger one of these two sounds somehow.

If it already knew, using 16000 can listen to the correct speed to the voice, but the commands that contain more than one word are cut and points cannot be listened, it can be due to the fact that when it calls to this command or to this minute and exact second in the one that is the command, a parameter passes to know that length has in time to reproduce it 2 seconds or 10 seconds according to the length of the sound to reproducing.
I think that to change the voices is something more complex and till now we do not have tools for it: (

Know someone answer?

I discovered special thing. If I change anything on navi_sw cd , that MK3 cd informal. I change something - logo in navboot for MK4 (MK4 will receive and everything OK) and MK3 CD informal. Only write " In navigation computer SW - CD ........etc." and then black screen, will go out red diode flashing and nothing. No message "CRC BAD" or"CD bad" or someother.( I changed only navboot for mk4!!) ) Unique. I Made attempt. MK3 - changed modul in usw_load, computed CRC, everything ok, insert to the MK4 - everything OK, insert to the MK3 - write " In navigation....etc....." and then black screen, go out red diode and nothing. I did more attempts - if I wherever anything changed and computed CRC on OK, that MK4 will accept and MK3 not. Knows somebody wherein can be problem?

This happens because of a critical error in Mk3 bootloader. It goes into an infinite loop, trying to read CD structure.
