I live in the US so I wouldn't know that. BUT, there is a separate Africa file so I don't understand why Europa would also be Africa and not Europe. It doesn't make sense to me.

Well chas, it's simple to me.
If you uploaded the correct file, that is the one called Europe, and that one is the file you downloaded somewhere as the Europe file, ....
1+1= ?
Maybe the Africa file is Europe? It could be a simple mistake renaming.

I don't think you downloaded my upload because it contains different files within it. One file for Africa and a separate one for Europe as well as the other countries. It is not a single file only for the world.

That is not different from what I am saying. Or is my English that bad?

@spudorange

I think that you should try putting the Europa file into your nav program. The numbers do show up as Africa but give it a try anyway. For some reason, I think it should work for you.

OR

This is definitely UK. Put only the .txt file into content\speedcam and let igo create the files it needs.

You will only get alerts when physically driving past a camera, not in simulation mode. Also you have to go into the settings and turn them on, and in some version's of igo they are called Alert points

Thanks

I believe my setting are correct

I drove past a camera just now and nothing happened other than it showing on map, however my talex system warned me of it so it is a valid speedcam.

also, now when I am following a route the verbal instructions come and go.

I did a hard reset the first time and voice came back, so I guess I must have something wrong in settings

can anyone advise what boxes to tick and what not to tick please

On the unit you can set the volume to be higher or lower than music you are listening to,
I have balance set as 0-0 so when I do hear the volume, it is the same level as the music I am playing

thanks again

Stuttering of a TTS voice can very well be a memory problem. Most memory problems are a result of the program trying to load too much content at the program's start. If this is your problem [content], do this: 1. delete the .dem files 2. reduce the speedcam area 3. delete the building files 4. reduce the number of maps and pois. Also make sure that you have the most possible memory allowable for your device. There might be a setting in the device's options. You'll have to check that out yourself.

AFTER you get a satellite lock, make sure that all the warning options for red-light cameras and alerts are selected. Also make sure they are all audio and visual. You may also need to delete the save folder in the program's root.

Thanks, will do

with regards to some files

I deleted everything not concerned with uk maps etc and bought a 16 gig class 10 sdcard.
will have a mooch around those other settings and maybe post up on a forum where the model I bought is heavily used.

cheers

Right, getting somewhere now.

Voice was not stuttering it was just not there, however I have had a play with volume and am getting voice through now, thanks.

What is incredibly irritating is the constant beep, beep, beep when approaching a camera and even for a while after passing that camera.
I am used to is verbal such as "warning speed camera 100 yards, speed camera 50 yards, slow down" etc

can it revert to voice and not those bleeping "bleeps"

cheers

You can remove the beeps, the procedure differs depends on whether you have iGO8 or Primo installed, I forget the procedure for iGO8 but in Primo you set the audio warning in alert points to voice only.
