Just got 2.1

[97rs4life]

Well I was just recently informed that HP tuners now has free updates for life so I was able to dl the 2.1 version finally. Quite a jump from 1.7, lol. Originally my update period was over when 2.0 came out.

Time to learn the ins/outs of this new version.

So if you still only have 1.7, get onto hp tuners and get the update!

Version 2.0.0

This is our second generation of software and our first major software upgrade. VCM Suite 2.0 is a complete rewrite taking over a years worth of feedback and experience from our 1.x line of software.

VCM Suite 2.0 uses a more graphical user interface than our previous version. It is also designed to be as functional as possible for the most advanced tuners while still remaining easy to use and user friendly for those just starting out. We believe that the new software build can cater to almost any tuner skill level.

VCM Editor
The new VCM Editor is now a combined edit utility as well as flash utility. Using the same piece of software you will be able to read the vehicle, make changes, and then write your changes back without ever having to open up any other applications. There are also many feature improvements including a full graphical color representation of parameters and very functional file compare.

VCM Scanner
The software now has a much more configurable interface. The interface and displays are fully configurable. One major feature of the VCM Scanner software is the ability to change your config file on the fly! While you're scanning you can load up various config files to adjust your chart, histogram and gauge layouts without even having to stop logging the vehicle.

Right Click Functionality
We have added even more right click functionality into our software. All parameters in VCM Editor can now be right clicked for quick modification and configuration. Items in VCM Scanner can also be right clicked for quick access to configuration screens.

Multi-Manufacturer Support
The software engine has been designed to allow the addition of other vehicle manufacturers. In the future we will be releasing more tuning products for other manufacturers using the same VCM Suite interface you have become so used to.

New User Interface
VCM Suite has received a major facelift in this version. The look and feel of the software is much more modern and full of color.
