Personally, I don't think a block of black X3/X5 as an icon will look as good as the transparant circle - however here's the main icon you'll need based on my black X3. Take pictures whilst car is under blue sky standing on step-ladders to get angle right, then use tool like iconworkshop from Axilas to import, reduce, touch-up and set background to transparent. You only need do 12 pictures at varying angles, then copy (flip) left to right to create full set of 24.

Hi Guys,

I would like to share with you a new version for the main icon.
I call it angle wing - it will grant you a perfect view on all things in front of you. :)

I already tested / joined it the last thousand km.
The shown 3 icons are suficient to cover all possible cases, if you are using mode perspective not pointing north.


Just use navtweak to exchange the original icons and join. :thumbup:

Kind regards,

Matthias

Hi Guys!

Big thanks to everyone on here with all this BMW nav stuff!
Got a mini myself, and I have updated the software hopefully will have Chris-H's speed cam dvd working later aswell.

I'm now having a go at this navtweak to try and change the driving icon, I've made a little mini (http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c2...er/ccp_000.png), and changed it for the orignal icon but when I save the new file the output is a 11.5mb file instead of something similar to the one before at 295.4mb mdf file..

Do I need some software to convert it because Alcohol 120% wont pick up the 11.5mb new file...?

Thanks to Matt I think I've got it sorted now, will post a pic tomorrow if it works :)

M1tch - very cool, you might want to adjust the angle though - looks like you're pulling wheelies .... !!!

gonna try this one on the normal view with map in travel direction, then I'll try taking a pic at a different angle for the perspective view. Is that the new sky that you have put on yours, I added it on navtweak but the file size was a lot bigger so didnt know if it could handle it.

well it worked :) mini on the nav screen, well chuffed with it.

Uh, thats a big mini.

Hi M1TCH,

I too have a MINI and would love to replace the vehicle icon in my own system with the one you're using. Thus, would you be willing to provide a bit more details on how you went about doing this using NavTweak? Also, did you create MINI vehicle icons for all of the different cusor positions/rotations? If so, would you care to share them with everyone (as that would save me the time of having to do it when someone else already took the initiative)?

Thanks!
