bootmod3 New Feature Release - DME Read (Backup) ***

Hey guys just wanted to let you know about a new feature released over the weekend. We've finalized work updating our DME Read feature available on the Diagnostics screen. Its a neat way to back up (read out) the DME and make the contents into a re-flashable map in the list of your maps, making it behave just like any BM3 OTS map or custom map.

Who needs this?
If you invested in a flash tune before, a custom tune or OTS, and you'd like to to go with bootmod3 to use its features you'll be able to back up the current tune as a map and be able to flash back to it at a later point if you choose to do so.

Our User Adjustables screen that's in the works will also apply to these maps just like any other map in the account, more on that here: http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1480183

Previous tune data that is backed up will not be editable or viewable and is simply a backup of your previous tune.

Cheers

Will you be able to customize those maps once they have been read? So say I have a flash tune from elsewhere and convert to BM3 and you read that flash and add it into my maps, can I then customize it further in the map editor?

No, as said in the OP.

Will you still be able to backup maps that have been protected, or locked?
