Wow... I saw the 1st 3D exit ramp in Canada today!!! Here's a pic.. WOHOO! If you look at the left half, you can see that this 90 degree turn which is on a fairly steep hill kind of bends down

this is not exactly what 3D highway exit is
This is 3D view but not 3D zoomed view of HWY exit.

can someone take a pic of what a real 3d exit ramp looks like then?!

The 3D exit display is a really nice feature. The RNS-E really uses the nav data to great effect; on all the motorway exits I've seen in the UK, it knows whether a separate filter lane will appear at the junction/intersection ahead, or if the nearside lane becomes the slip road/off ramp, how many lanes in total etc. Extremely useful and intuitive.

what is your firmware number?

2007 firmware # 0150 and new maps should enable 3D views.

have 2007 maps and 0150.... where would i see one such ramp in canada?

It all depends on the map data - if the map doesn't have the data to enable the RNS-E to show a 3-D exit view then even if you have it enabled you won't seeany 3D exit ramp views.

So exits like this are able to be displayed on the UK version? I believe mine is the most upto date but cannot get these displays, I have TMC on mine my software is 0550 Hardware 50, what options do I need to enable to see exits like this



TIA

Almost every motorway junction is displayed like this in the UK, not only with SW0550 but for some time (might even be back as far as SW0330).

Can't remember the setup - I'll go out and check and post back...

 

[orinoco254]

Thanks that would be great

 

[PetrolDave]

Don't know if all these settings are needed to get 3D junctions displayed.

In NAV, Setup I have:

Map Type - Position 3D

Turn List ticked
Motorway Info ticked
Intersection Map ticked

 

[orinoco254]

Thanks will change my settings and report back

 

[orinoco254]

Thanks now working from those settings, didn't work initially, reset system and put settings in now working

So if I have the 2005 maps and the latest f/w I can't expect it to work

I gotta source a backup DVD with 2007 maps
