Yes - Destinator 6 Is On PC Thanks To A Community Effort

Every thing you want to know is here http://www.digital-car.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=7114 .... how ever heres some basics...

"D6 works great for PC, What i mean is that the pc version (the one bundeled
with Centrafuse) works great..so here is what you will need to get it up and
running..

1. Find and download borrow or whatever...CF 1.12 and use the DestCore.dll
1.12 and you will be fine.

2. get what you need from CF folder to run D6

3. BUY a map (buy a working version for ppc and take the map)

4. The App is 99% skinable..but veery difficult as there is no skin editor
. I have spent a couple of days to mod the basic skin so as to create a better
one, with larger buttons and nicer colors..and i am happy to share it with
you..

5. Now let us see what an SDK has to offer (if there was any for D6 that WE
could use) variables could be used in RR-events could be triggered by values
etc-volume could be muted when directions are spoken.The first 2 are not that
important to me that is..but the third is a must..so found this little external
app called Indievolume that could do that in a better way than any SDK could
offer

6. So go to http://www.indievolume.com/ and download (then buy)
indievolume version 2.0.61.127, this is the only version that would work
successfully.

7. Just select the 2 programs, winamp and destinator, and put destinator on
exclusive mode. don't forget to uncheck "own volume" for winamp (you will
understand when you will run the app). You will find a setting in the "options"
tab where you can put a value in miliseconds for the delay of giving the volume
back to the muted application, the default is 1000 (which is OK)

8. Put the skin i made in the skin folder of D6..and you are
ready..

9. This skin has been designed with specific dimensions.. to fit my
modified MC2 RR skin, (with an area for embedding of 800x410) so it will fit
larger areas of a skin but will not fit nicely to smaller areas when embedded
(smaller than 800x410)

10. Select the path of D6 in RRconfig, and write Destinator in "Gps window
name)

11. The voices of D6 are in a the SPX format (not readable by my PC at
least..so replace with PN voices/wav files)12. you are ready..skin link : http://rapidshare.com/files/38076647/Nomaders_skin.rar"

Now - I take no responsibiilty for any of the above as its freely available and I do suggest you buy Centrafuse just to be legal how ever I do say that Powerlock should make it easier to actually buy their product rather than hidding it away.... this is some thing I have publically said before, to them and probably will again in the furture.
