Official F10 Coding thread---Exploring Your F10

Team,

In my case, I am running E-Sys from a virtual Windows 7 (x86). The "psdzdata" folder in my case sits on the Mac side, and in E-sys, I just simply mapped it correctly to the network share folder where on the Mac side I have these files. The two screenshots show you what I have in E-Sys and what I have in the padzdata folder structure (park828, notice the duplicate copy of the SWE folder content)! In addition to the above, I have the the EST key sitting on the Mac side (see screenshot) as well.

So, the point I'm making here is that it doesn't matter where the files are stored. So long as you have the right folder structure (and duplicate SWE folder content) everything will work fine.

By the way, I'd like to express my gratitude to all who've dedicated their time and effort into "jailbreak/unlocking" these cars and in essence "finishing" the car's options. If I can be of any assistance, I am at your service!

there has to be something im doing wrong... i started fresh setup in xp mode and still no go... same issues.

@park828;
I am running Win7, 64 Bit with no problems.

E-Sys is acting like it can not find the PSDZdata files. That said, the E-Sys data path looks correctly set at C:\ESysData.

So, confirm that you have the following 2 folders (the exact full paths), and tell me the size of each swe folder?

C:\ESysData\psdzdata\swe
C:\ESysData\SWE

Also, make sure that there is a "Dist" folder in each of the Chassis (F01/F10/F25) folders etc.:
e.g. "C:\ESysData\psdzdata\mainseries\F010\F010_12_03_51 1\odx\dist"

i dont have those "dist" folders

OKOK! i created a newfolder called dist for the f10 and now i can see it. great! i can't wait to get off work and try it out! awesome guys! thank you so much

just as a btw... i download the 45.1 and 46.3 data files and both DID not have the dist folders... was that explained somewhere these folders were supposed to be manually created?

It's explained in my 16 step installation guide, that is included in the E-Sys 3.18.4 package I put together. I'm not sure where you got your E-Sys from though.

@nucleotide;
It's good to know you can virtualize and run this on a Mac, with out having an Ethernet port issues. If you could write up a How-To-Guide to be added to post one, that would be great for other MAC users.

Will do!

I dont remember where i downloaded it. i thought i got it from one of the many links on this thread.

Thank you and let me go play and hopefully be able to help others too!

Byong.

Instructions for setting this up on a Mac is attached.

Nucleodite,

thanks for the document added to the first post

Guys shall we move to our new home!

Let us move to the new location... we have more flexibility and dont have post everything in the same thread

@All,

42,313 views, 1,464 posts, and 59 pages, all in less than 30 days. All I can say is, .

The purpose of this thread was to basically bring coding of the F10, and by extension all the newer F-Series Chassis, out of the wilderness, and I have no doubt that was achieved. As evidenced, we had a meet here in Houston this Sunday, and 3 out of 8 of us were coding, and I think 4 others already had the software and were waiting on cables. Mission accomplished.

And while it has been a great run, with this thread growing far beyond anyone's imagination, sadly it has simply become too broad in focus and no longer manageable at this size.

As a result, we (Sean, DreamCar, and myself) petitioned the Bimmerfest Admins for our own BMW Coding and Programming section, and they were kind enough to oblige us. This will allow for threads geared around specific topics like E-Sys, F10, F30, BMW Apps, Speed Limit Info, M-Hud, etc., and make it easy for people to find specific information.

To that end, I am officially unsubscribing from here, and will now be monitoring the BMW Coding and Programming section via Feed Demon for specific topics of interest to me.

For those with an RSS News Reader, here is the news feed:

Thanks to all that contributed here, and I hope to see you there.

I would love to have this done to my car. Any body live in the midwest?

See the thread at http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=175

@Dreamcar: Yeah I posted in the old thread (in the F10 forums), it's the following: North America Premium 2012, v.112111.2.18

I have a question that might sound silly. What state is the car supposed to be in ? I know should not be off. Mine if is on, but without starting the engine, after a few minutes I am loosing the connection with it. I just want to make sure: the car should be on with the engine running ?

I got my question answered. The engine should be started.

Having had multiple requests for the FTP link, I am posting the link here itself.

ftp://guru.myDS.me/PSDZDatav461

There is no password, use anonymous/ guest if prompted.

Any chance This FTP goes back alive?

Apologies, guys.

When I put up the FTP site link, I just got hit by too many downloaders. (Good thing as many members did get the files - but bad news as my ISP did not like it).

I have tried to put it up a few times again, and the ISP always shuts it down.

My suggestion is to get a Rapidshare Pro account (its only about $10/ £7 or so), get the links from this forum and you should have your download in a couple of hours…

Once again, sorry that I cannot help further - I have received stern warnings from my ISP about hosting files that I do not own….

Hey guys, don't remember if we've covered this before or not, but I have a dumb question: can I use my 46.3 data files to code for people who have old software? or maybe pre-global software update? There are a couple people asking for my help in Chicago and I want to make sure I'm able to do it if they don't have the Global Update.

Thanks!

Yes..it's no problem. It's only a problem the other way, when the car has newer software than your E-Sys PSDZdata files.

thanks man, appreciate it!

Thanks to all the contributors to this thread, I will be doing my first coding this weekend on my 2012 535i, My question is I would like the steps how to backup all my car current coding before I make any changes, and also how would I restore my backup if my car is gonna be service by the dealer?. (Will be serviced for hesitation bug). Thanks
