WARNING with new UpRev update, you loose your tune!

flashgordon · 03-08-2017, 12:20 PM

I am not criticizing the technical improvement of ROM Editor.

At begin I was very happy to know that Uprev finally starts to use degrees instead milliseconds in TA maps (like Ecutek)

I am in complete disagreement to the marketing strategy !!

The upgrade is a good features IF IT DOES NOT DESTROY your work (..and money..)

So, if automatic update proposes an upgrade, it's mandatory that old maps are fully compatible!

In another way, is it not technically possible?
Well Uprev must release the ROMEditor v2.0 and specify that IT IS NOT COMPATIBLE !

My tuner says me that dyno it's necessary.... ....it is not safe to adjust TA using the sentiment....

Dang that's kinda shitty. They should warn before updating that you will lose all previous work. I guess it isn't totally uncommon for some updates to no longer be compatible, my friend uses hondata and I guess there is a similar thing with his too so he didn't update as he didn't want to lose all his work but would also like to have latest tech. Good to know for new users that it looks like uprev will be competing again (competition is always good for the consumer) just sucks for previous users.
