AngryDad, I should have used that name, but when I joined I only had one kid, now with 2, I'm always mad at one of em... But anyway congrats on the good work, let me know where to send the beer.

I agree Brandon. Constantly checking
Angrydad, I love you for hacking this (in a completely non-sexual way).
and I am soooooo excited to do this......
But why must you tease us with these details and video?!!??
The suspense is getting to great to handle

I'm down to support this for some $. I know back when I was unlocking phones on Nextel, people would always donate since they knew I was doing something on my free time for them. I think donations should be made for Angrydad once this is released. After looking at that video I can't wait to be able to do this!
Angrydad is this something you could burn and send to us? I have a Mac, so I'm not sure if I can do this stuff on my machine. I'd definately pay more for that!

1. It makes very hard for you to win a lawsuit against Acura for crashing while being distracted by navi screen.
2. It should go to sleep and won't spin your dvd until you hit the OK button (thus extending the life of the laser and the DVD drive). I haven't checked this, but if it doesn't do that, I retract my words in regards to "not stupid".

By chance have you seen the latest generation of Navi files? The TL is the last car to have this old generation. The new disc now contains the following files:
06Jog.bin
06Jog2.bin
06Touch.bin
06Touch2.bin
A0000_00.MNG
DCA0.reg
PRG_INFO.MNG
UPDATE_APL.exe
VRDB.bin
I would appreciate any help with those also and I am sure the TSX, Accord, and Civic guys would also. Let me know if you don't mind and I can get you anything you need.
06Jog.bin
06Jog2.bin
06Touch.bin
06Touch2.bin
A0000_00.MNG

VRDB.bin

Question for you AngryDad,
I am not sure exactly what these mods do to the computer code and the list of potentials is growing.
Will this "patch" work with other mods like the "enable trip computer natively" mod? What about those two and the bitmap mod?
I guess the answer may depend on each individual mod and what it does. Again, I don't really know though.
Oh, and I'm in for offering a few beers also.
Thanks

Could someone point me in the correct thread that describes the process to allow the nag text to be modified like Desert TL did in post #29 of this thread?
