Primo 2 Default zoom level

Fri Jan 20, 2012 2:27 pm

How to change, in 3D mode, the default zoom and angle level to show a closer map view and no sky view(without a route)
when the program starts? and can I zoom in and out while navigating (like garmin), I am using dimkawa skin,
Primo 2 international on a flyaudio 2 din 800x480 car navi. Thanks in advance for any help .

You could try this in sys.txt for a "permanent" setting:

[map]
minimum_zoom_amount="8"
3d_default_tiltlevel="8500"
3d_min_zoomlevel="10"

Play with the numbers until you find something you like.
In the first set, 5 or 8 is typical, in the second set, 7800 or 8500 is typical, in the 3rd set, 10, 15 or 20 is typical .

Since these settings/commands are for an older version of Primo, I am not certain they will have any affect in Primo 2.0.

Settings -> Map Settings -> Viewpoint

Will give you a choice of three viewpoints, Low, Normal and High.

With the Low setting you can see sky, and with the High setting you don't.

Many thanks to YT and fatboyfun for their response to my request.

Problem solved, I added the following line to the map section in sys.txt file:

3d_max_tiltlevel=7000
