Thread: Truck support in NG versions

I have problem with iGO NG World (iGO Navigation 9.18.27.705829 - 11.jul.2017) - no truck properties (dimensions, weight etc.) can be set.
Any solution?

Sorry buddy, but this is not true.

Avicsync 696728,
Basarsoft 689739 and 659452,
Track4Africa 704526,
NextGen 484935,
Gift 675083, ISRAEL 676280,
Primo NextGen 624842 (Pioneer),

This is for today's versions (personally tested and tested by me) which have a full - extended option to configure the vehicle profile.
Profile is taken into account when calculating the route

Look screen's - this is from Basarsoft

Spoiler: Screen's

So, discussion summary:

- for those interested in the recommendation goes for

1. Israel
2. PAL
3. Gift
3. Tracks 4 Africa

Indeed, it is advisable to read this topic to the end.

Sorry but I can't recommend no one apps from yours list. Some of them are old, some need licenses, some are slowly, some have only simple possibilities...

I recommend some of newest, on 1st place Israel, and on 2nd place Gift (and Gift only like reserved opinion).

Here are my test* for Truck profile

NextGen9.18.27.687519-Gift(26Jan2017) - can set extended settings**, gets restricted notification, have not see routing change based on truck settings
NextGen9.18.27.689739-Basarsoft(10Feb2017) - can NOT set extended settings
NextGen9.18.27.693527-World(14Mar2017) - can NOT set extended settings

Note that NextGen9.18.27.689739-Basarsoft(10Feb2017) is not slow, similar start up time*** for all three with pretty much same number of UX's

The Lorry profile is not available using default UX's of Basarsoft

* using HERE 2016.Q3 US .ftr file
** must have truck.zip ux (taken from World)
*** on 800x480 device running 4.4.2

Can you please point me to the truck.zip ux? Or better, upload it here?

TIA

Truck, Caravan and Lorry are things that uses "extended" settings. You can find a copy of trunk.zip UX at [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

The "extended" SETTINGS are provided in vehicle_selection.zip UX for SOME proggy, NextGen9.18.27.687519-Gift(26Jan2017) is one. The truck.zip UX provide additional capability like notification. Furthermore (as I have said) in addition to settings, the routing engine, licensing, truck data (.ftr) and truck capability must all be valid for proggy to "fully" worked. Case in point, try to use a copy of truck.zip UX for World* on NextGen9.18.27.693527-World(14Mar2017) will NOT work. Nuff said, bottom line is this, you get it working (FULLY) then post what works for what proggy; and look at the codes when it doesn't work to find out why.

* The problem is that when proggy are posted, they are seldom a complete post. UX's are often taken from previous version or another version and that doesn't always work

Sorry, Marx, but I can not completely agree with you eather
I just tested latest all NG versions available here. All have proper settings, all can be adjusted properly. All. To be honest, I am lazy to make screenshots of all of them.
Only problem is Avic (conditionally speaking), because it does not have the necessary licenses for the latest edition of maps. With older - no problems at all.

@Marx and Boki_Srb

Gentlemen - what are you arguing about?

Marx - not really know what he writes? - the first three apk in my post are the latest from this year !!!, the other end of 2016.

Licenses ~ for transport - always need! Therefore, the latest Q2-2017 maps are not supported for Truck's transport.

And as for speed - dear Marx - all in the hands of the installer!
I did not notice a special slowdown compared to these versions.
No - but if you have a truck - Lambrghini, or Ferrari - well I'm not surprised that for you these programs are slow

Seriously: In the Transport programs, the main feature is to show the correct and tailored to the Character of the vehicle.
All these programs will fulfill this task with excess.

For the future - I suggest you do not write in categorical statement - because you write untruth!

Write - "In my opinion ...." or according to me .... - then everyone will know what they decide - taking your mind into account.
Why is it important?
It's easy - there are many Novice users in the Forum - who are looking for gods to know what they are after (because they only work - that's it) - and they can actually reach out to other versions - and they will work!

regards wojpen

PS. Boki_Srb - Avic ( old or new) - WORK ok, but only for map's bofore Q2 2017. Last Lic. for transport is Q1 2017


PS2:
Dear Marx - what will you answer to iGO for WinCe?
The last and unmodified version of iGO for this platform - was created in September 2016.
Does this mean that the users of this platform have an old fashioned? ...
Certainly not!

PS3

Finally, little attention - especially for Novices:

Dear Users - speed of navigation programs depends on 3 factors:
1. Memory (the physical in the device and declared in the program)
2. Program installation area (SD or Inernal memory)
3. Program sizes

At 1 - the influence is small, but the 2 and 3 are very large.
Remember that the program installed in Internal memory always !!! Will work faster
The less unnecessary add-ons, unnecessary schemes, unused types of vehicles, unnecessary map changers, or unused skins - will cause memory usage and consequently a significant slowdown.
Example - please very much:
New Basar with 1 skin, 2 schemes (day and night), 1 car, maps - only one type (Herre), without changers and some other unnecessary (for me) ux - fix in 3-7 seconds, and route of 2500 km in 10-12 seconds. A lot?
The same program installed with all the possible add-ons is:
Fix - 25-40 seconds.
Route calculation - approx. 1- 1,5 Minutes

So seriously consider what to install - if the program is meant to work!

We are not arguing, we discuss, so serve the forum
You are wrong. Actually - you are not precise enough. What about if anyone use TT maps

In fact, my friend, as you know, Avic is limited by licences always.
Not only for ftr. Some other content also do not work with even older versions (poi's, routes, etc...). And not for all map providers.
I prefer TT maps and some local providers (Hungary and similar)...Unfortunately, not all licences presented, the question is whether it will be.
Until someone finds a way to make it completely cr**ed, on this side, it is not recommended to use it for dedicated purpose (trucks and similar), ie only conditional.

P.S.
What confuses many is next:
- By choice of trucks and profiles, it is necessary to enter the truck once again (Truck as a vehicle and truck as a profile!!!) and then get an option for its properties. Many people stop after the first selection and they think it is not working.
Stupid solution, but...
