TunerStudio and Vems V3

[Dylan@AM Racing]

Has anybody managed to get TunerStudio to work with Vems V3? I did search the topic but it goes back to 2008 and was left ope ended. I cannot get it to communinate with Vems ecu.

VEMSTune is the app of choice these days.

What makes you think it would work with VEMS?

VEMS is not MS

VEMS is not MS

Because VEMS used to use Megatune, bud. It "borrowed" the old megasquirt tuning software, it's not that unreasonable to wonder if it could "borrow" the new software as well, is it?

VEMStune is getting better and better but it's still no tunerstudio.

I hope it doesn't turn out to be like it either, neither program is perfect.  Having used Tunerstudio to tune a couple of engines I only really liked the live VE analyzer which I more or less felt forced to use because of the poor interface of tuning directly by editing the VE table in 3D, it didn't suit my style at all but I did like the coloured polygons.

Overall I felt like TunerStudio was a bit cumbersome to navigate (bring up a dialog, traverse dialogs, change settings) in comparison to VT and gave me too little live information to look at while tuning, compared to say VE tune main view in VT. It however felt more complete and bug free, something that can't be said about VT which is still very much in development. Just like the firmware, the latest VT versions are usually the best so it's all good, evolution is at a pace where a new VT  package comes every week or so.

Here is my comment. Author of Tuner studio is Phil Tobin. Same man who makes MLV.
He is extreme master of subject. I never remember situation when one solved bug creates tons of others. And there was so few bugs from beginning! It just works. You install it and it works! Dream of VT user.
IMHO this is why peoples ask about Tuner studio.

VT implements many very good ideas. But implementations itself still are imperfect in many cases.

Thanks bud but just because back in the day MT was modified and used because AFAIK it was open source and already existed so it was "easy" to offer a tuning software solution that way doesn't mean TS would work.  You cannot just take the MS version of MT and use it with VEMS either.
