Hello, i am new at this forum and maby my question on this is allready asked.
Could the adding of sound to these pois as discribed here also be done when the MK4 is in dutch?
I have bought a X5 4.4 in germany and has the nav changed by someone in Holland. Its not possible now to see pois, could not find anything in the menu. maybe with a update including sound it could work????

like the forum, could help me to understand my Bimmer better.

Thanks, Roy (The Hague, Holland)

The POIsON modification works on all languages

1. It modifies the OS, which is language independent
2. You choose your desired warning per language - eg: the German warning can be different to English or Dutch. If you want, you can add the warning to only one language and leave the others without warnings, if so desired.

Hi guys,
I'm back after a few practical tests with poisoned maps as already written before.
Well this i s the result:
1 old 2009-1 poisoned with POIsON = WORKS GOOD
2 new 2009-2 poisoned with POIsON = DOES NOT WORK (DOES NOT SHOW SPEED CAMERAS BUT IT SHOWS POI LOADED AS MILITARY BASES)

Any suggestion????

No, Mine works, (2009-2), the tank icon is changed in the OS (navboot) so not sure why you would see that with a modded map disc.

It miust be one of 3 things.

1: navboot not patched
2: map disc not POIsoned.

3:The only other thing I can think of is, you have kept the "/TPD/NCCBEUFNM_EU_20090216/ITA" dir yes? if you delete this then the mk4 will use the built in icons from the carindb (not good) and not the navboot loaded camer (tank) icon.

HTH

Dearest CCFJ1,

despite the damn hot climate here in Rome, my brain still keeps working
(low speed BTW )...still fighting with POIs on HIGH-2 DVD. Here we are with facts...
I did several tests modding map (high 2009-2) with different procedures, STILL NO ICONs displayed... the strange thing is that with the same procedures I have icons displayed when modding HIGH 2009-1.
I see that there are differencies between 2009-1 and 2009-2, but still do not understand where the problem is.
The OS that I have is a V32 modded by myself just for night vision. I mean, I took an original copy of V32 and I modded colours nothing else. But again this OS is showing POIs with modded 2009-1 maps and not with 2009-2 maps...what should I do before trying woodoo??

Grazie mille
.

Me neither, I've POIson modded my 2009-2 disc in the exact same way as the dvd-2009-1, cd-2008 and cd-2009/2010 and all have been perfect. All work with the correct icon and audio alert.

You did patch it though yes?

Not sure,
1: do the camera.csv files have an error or something that stops them loading via poison.exe,
2; can you see the DB being loaded with the new locations, when you import,
3:the new db is being saved?
4:you are coping the new db back into the map image?

Not sure what else to suggest mate

Easy, use the patch but don't edit the language.csf file.

The patch just setups up the navboot.

Just out of interest, why bother, the whole point of the POIson hack is to have an audio alert??

If you just want the icon, use PMN or the POI menu hack.

Sometimes it seems we "loop"...

YES, indeed, this is what I was trying to achieve BUT, as mentioned earlier, it did work with 2009-1 but it did/does NOT work with DAMN 2009-2 !!!!

I know PMN and I'm trying to get a copy. Do u refer to a specific procedure when u say POI menu hack?...maybe I am missing something...
