MIND YOU problems with Fastactivate
Unfortunately due to a firmware update of the server, a download of the file updated_meta.txt is temporarily impossible via the normal route within Fastactivate.
P33dro has since been informed about this via a PM
I temporarily created a tool to retrieve the file meta.txt for as long as the link in Fastactivate has not been modified, the link in A_F_Activate works normally.pe1agp Reviewed by pe1agp on .

Another way you can also active using Fast Activeate is to place the Meta file from me in meta.txt in the root directory, as it works as well. Sometimes it will be more uptodate, but see to see if I have updated the meta files. Or create your own meta text file yourself and place in the root director an called meta.txt, or Meta.txt. Both work.
Actually, there are a lot of things you can do, with your own Meta.txt file.
It certainly does not need to contain a lot of things that you find in my file, that contains all.
You may have is just contain your map and the countries you use for speedcams...perhaps a couple of voices, that you use. nothing else really
Hope that helps

If you are just in the UK. With FastActive. I hope you use it - it is certainly my best means to crack things
In the Meta file, all you need is the current map, and the speedcams for UK and Ireland, and the few voices that you what.
You only need to run this once, for each map change.
This creates the .dct files needed
From then on, all you then need to download are the radar files, and you can do all or, just the ones needed but I would suggest both ov2 and the .ver ones. You do not need the .ver ones really.
This is info is really meant for the poor users using OLD units, the rest, so as you do now.
I would really think, if you need this info, you should either get a new unit...or get a job and do not drive as technology has left you by
Sorry, that is not meant as an insult, but it is trueOne day, someone might make things work perfectly before release. Sadly not in my or your lifetime. At least by finding problems and sorting them, we are still alive.

I agree that FastActivate has been the best tool since TTusers original and (at the time, best) Easytools BUT, unless p33dro can (be bothered to) modify the "updated_meta.txt" to "meta.txt" then we will continue to have complaints from those we encourage to come here that "it's not working properly" and then having to tell them to rename the updated_meta.txt. Why should they have to do this when p33dro just needs to apply a few tweaks to his program?
I don't understand programming but I'm totally convinced IT AIN'T BLOODY ROCKET SCIENCE to change this FFS!

Thx Dave. I was going to say similar. Why not fix what is not broken. It works great, as it is. The only flaw is the meta file, and we have posted this ... A lot too many times.
They need to read more and complain less
There are many times which I mayme not say, but they really are morons
Since I could not read,write, count or hold a pen in 20015, I am struggling to see why they have problems, We post the solutions.
I had an IQ at 186, now it 158. and I feel crap.....but I am taking tests
I should add, that if it was not for you, Igor jsb yuri kilrory orni and my many friends that i have misspelled know who they are. They know me and are friends
Actually, it was Igor that helped me the most. Talked me through so much really. From nothing, to actually be back here
But we are friends, I make mistakes as you do, but we are a team...A very close team...A big hug to you, and those I did not mention that know
