Thanks for posting this. I got the iPod overlay working without the preload manager, just to let you know. But I needed the onMinimapScript, that was the part I was missing ;)

You could do a Android overlay or any custom GPS. Youll have to make it in Photoshop. All you need to do is make your own Image overlay. Define it in the Description.ext and call the ipod function. You just need to know how the image is structured and what its alpha channels are so the map shows through the image.

I just wish you could control the zoom level in the GPS on screen.

I made one using my Droid, my camera, and GIMP.

It took a lot of tries to get it so the map would center correctly in the display. It's not great, but it works well enough.

Uses the same description setup as the pmc iPod. Put it in your mission folder and call it thusly:

["ui_gps_droid.paa",-0.05,0.16] call bis_fnc_customGPS;

I know ;)

I had been contemplating it for a few days, wanted to see if it could be done.
