Post by luftvagon »

Does megatunix support microsquirt (MSII v3.77)? I'm running 0.9.23. Thanks/

I think it will work if you use the more common MS2/Extra firmware on your Microsquirt.

Is it more common to run MS2/Extra firmware? I couldnt find any documentation showing the difference in firmware.

Thanks

From what I understand about 85% of users are on MS2/Extra.
There's an old feature comparison table here: http://www.msextra.com/doc/ms2extra/MS2 ... m#features but it is out dated for MS2/BG and MS2/Extra.

What version of MegaTunix do you need to drive the 3.2.4 MS2/Extra firmware?

For now, you need to be using a development version from Git. What OS are you on? I may be able to make you a package for testing purposes.
