Stu,
I didnt know that as I stated above
I asked two moderators who told me they were going to refer it to yourself.
As I didnt hear anything and had already contacted site staff already, I just added it to a thread I knew you were watching as it was connected to the whole matter.
I hope that finally explains this !!! Thanks for taking time and changing it

2.) as much as i know about engines and software and dyno's etc i still wouldn't try and map a ecu myself so this version of the software would be useless
3.) i would always take my car / seak info about software chip ecu's etc from a reputable company anyway
so i really don't see why any more than a test version is needed of this software so as far as i can see the only real people to benefit from what simon is doing is the mappers / company's that do mapping but surely for the price the chip company's can supply software like this for it wouldn't be any use to them either because the software they use again will be tried and tested stuff not just something someone knocked up in his spare time lol
so imho this thread and all related articles should just be deleted and forgotten about and if simon whats to go ahead with this then let him set up website and advertise on a google search or even pay for an advert on here once he's finished the software and website etc
BUT that is just imho
thanx alain
Alain,
The point of the software is to include many things you need.
If there is something you dont need or want then dont use it ..simple !!
You have not understood the point of the trading issue.
The software, is 100% freeware, anyone can use it for personal and comercial use without any charge or reward back to myself.
I have said I will not or ever will sell this in any shape or form.
With this in mind, I should not need to nor can I afford to place any advertising anywhere.
It does have its own website now but thats just because the volume of information I have and the amount of discussion that will be created initially will probably not be in all users interests on this site so it made sense to start a new home.
There isnt any adverts on this site and there never will be !!!!
This software project is now as I first intended it to be, all free, and with the help and suggestions from anyone, I can improve it for the benfit of all that use it.
Some users like talking about how engines work, I like electronics and software on cars as do many others on here and I am being discriminated against IMO.
Its all enthusiasm, nothing else.
