Mark & Phil,

This one works! It is the same as the other one except that you need to change 3A in 03.

Autoroute then updates between 1 and 2 seconds.

Thanks for all you help.

Regards,

Paul

Paul, try this version of the hack.

"to increase the gps sensor update rate in MS Autoroute 2002 the same
string of bytes as used for the patch for 2001 can be used : with a hex
editor search the autorout.exe file for the hex string : BF983A0000
the 983A is the value 0x3A98 (15 seconds)
change 983A into E803 (value 0x3E8)
the update rate will then be 2 seconds"

I have not tried this as I still haven't got a GPS yet.

Mark

I haven't tried running the software with the GPS receiver attached yet...

Guys,

Have any of you managed to get this to work. I have Autoroute 2001, which came as part of MS Works. I have changed the hex code in the exe file but it hasn’t changed the update speed.

Any ideas ?

Regards,

Paul

I found the hack for Autoroute 2001 to update quicker. The details are here

http://sprysgi.sghms.ac.uk/~cspry/links/maps.html#GPS software:

there are different codes for Autoroute 2002 that I have seen posted.

Hope this helps.

My only real gripes with Autoroute 2001 and the GPS in the car are that if you have the map zoomed in quite tight then the update speed can be a drag - especially if you are getting close to the edge of the screen and your exit is just on the next page however I find that zooming out of the map does actually help that a lot.

Of course if in 2002 they had made the update delay configurable and had restricted the GPS location indicator to - say - the central third of the screen only before redrawing then that would be a reason for me to buy the new version.

Following on from this, what version of auto route are you guys using. I have 2000 and 2001, GPS support in 2000 leaves a black line where you have been. In 2001 it just has the car image thing and with an update of 15 seconds it no good for travelling.

If any one knows of any fixes for this I would be grateful.

Regards

Paul

Hmmm ... so someone has found a way to make Autoroute update from the GPS more frequently? If you find out how then I'd love to know...
