Calendar  
I'm using Rainlendar for the calendar, The Calendar (already configured) and all Alpine skins for it is available for download in the Alpine thread. Just make sure you get the one for your screen resolution and place the "Rainlendar-0.22 folder inside your Road Runner Folder. When you run the calendar program right click the calendar and go to skins and choose the one you want.

Car Care  
Actually the button points to "C:\Program Files\Road Runner\Vehicle Maintenance\Vehicle Maintenance.exe" 
there just wasn't enough room on the button for Vehicle Maintenance. It's a flash program by lostreception, and you can download and read more about it at http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=63817.

Games  
  1. The Games button is mapped for Mobile Emulator.
  2.  There's a skin included in the zip file it should be placed in
    "C:\Program Files\Mobile Impact\Emuskins".
  3. Edit The skindir.ini located at "C:\Program Files\Mobile Impact" to use the skin.

Lyrics  
If you have minilyrics installed and you click on the music note icon (just above the eject button) in the Audio player, another player will be loaded. It looks the same except that the vis button doesn't work and the lyrics are displayed in the area just above the player controls. Click exit to return to the Audio player. I am using the "Have Nothing On" skin. You can also change the font, font size, font color to match the skin.

Setup

  • Add startcommand=CLOSELYRICS to your rr.ini
  • Download and install miniLyrics available here http://www.philocode.com/minilyrics/
  • Place the Scripts folder inside your Road Runner Folder @ C:\Program Files\Road Runner
  • Run winamp (not Road Runner) right click on the mini lyrics window, go to Preference>Preference>Options and check always on top. Font, font color, size and many more options are available also. (try the have nothing on skin)
  • Visit http://www.philocode.com/minilyrics/ for more info and to download.
