heLLo!
I'm sure you're a lil bored too with that plain old default TDU GPS. I was planing to do something about it for some time now, and this week I finally had some free time for myself and decided to give it a try.
Step by step, I came with this nice minimalistic design. I tried to keep it clean & sleek as much as possible, so there isn't too much details on it. It isn't based on any real GPS, it's purely fictional. It's a GPS I would love to buy, if it existed in real life, that is.

To be honest, I'm a bit disappointed. Don't get me wrong, I like the direction this GPS design went to, but because of hud limitation my GPS isn't exactly what I had in mind. If you look at my early concept you will notice small (to me it's huge) difference between that and this final product. Most noticeably white part.

That white part annoys me. I searched inside hud.bnk files, but didn't been able to find a file that have correlation to that white part. Maybe in near future someone with more experience in texture modding will be able to find that particular file. When that happens, I will re-edit this version of GPS with proper color.

On other note, I'm thinking of making another version of GPS, similar to this one, with only exception it would be in white color. That would solve that ''white part'' problem, but question remains - do we really need a white GPS? Sure we do. We got white iPods, we must have a white GPS too. :p
It's not 100% perfect, at least it's better than default one we all get bored to.
So that's all folks, thanks for your attention. Cya later. Now go and download it. ;)
