Thread: What's new in iGO? (FDS files)

????
You didn't came today on this forum. We are talking about fds files almost a year.
Worthless without license.
Not a single license yet.
And nobody knows if, when (or ever) there 'll be.

It will work ONLY with certain proggy (so far the only one is in demo video) This thread is strictly info only for now.

ON SHORT:
.fds files are the files that alerts your device/car about dangerous curves and sharp turns.

Spoiler: a quote of an original text

” when HERE fully maps a road, we’re not just recording its shape and where it goes. We’re also recording the slope, height, curvature, relevant traffic signs and lane information. “A fully mapped road has more than 20 recorded attributes that can be used by ADAS applications,”

First you should know that you don`t really need these files:

As the Vehicles are getting better and safer, HERE a company co-owned by Audi, BMW and Daimler made these curve alert files, with FDS extension.

On modern cars, these files modify the car`s powertrain, lightning curve, suspension and alerts car about the road autonomy. In conclusion, on regular GPS devices, YOU DON`T NEED THESE FILES to make the maps work, they work fine without them. In adtition, the files are good if they are installed on modern GPS systems installed in cars.

Supported in Igo 9.15 and above , in particular Becker, Falk, Nextgen (and analogues (revision)). To activate the content must present a license

FDS files work exclusively with individual licenses valid for 6 months. After that period a new subscription must be paid.
This files automatically control the transmission in some models of modern cars on dangerous turns and sharp turns.
They work only with the appropriate software, based on Nextgen
Currently are used for "decoration" and unnecessarily occupy space
Stop looking for explanations
Stop looking for their licenses
Ignore them completely

The theme will be unlocked if and when they occur some really useful news
