-- Please note that until the project is out of beta stage, there will be functionality and design issues. I'll try to spell out the major problems with each release. As usual.....
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
Release 0.99e 12/7/08:
Features:
Add NEW tool to compare and manage different tuning groups. For example, this makes it easy to compare to very similar ROMs and find differences ST can manage. Please note that ST can only deal with dimensionally equivalent tables (size, type etc).
GUI coloring fixed. Table color is now self updating as max extents of table values are changed.
Many minor GUI fixes as I found them.
Should be marginally faster.
Issues:
Undo / Redo completely hosed. I'll fix it next release.
Not fully tested as said before. I have flashed ROMs edited by this program, but remember, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. I am a lone man doing this for fun in my spare time.
Release 0.99 Alpha 9/19/08:
Features:
Full support for RomRaider ECU def XML. Its a literal interpretation at that. Please note that the RomRaider ECU defs WONT work with SimpleTune without changes being made as RomRaider has bugs that force incorrect ECU def structure and data. Not a huge issue and I already informed TeaCups.
So what does the first bullet imply? You can edit WRX/STi roms that are defined in a RomRaider ECU def :)
Data smoothing tools. Some might remember my strange 3D map editing environment that was needed to smooth data in RomRaider. No more is that the case. A simple button is provided. Note that this is least squares polynomial interpolation. It ain't perfect. What happens is that a grid of equations are generated that approximate the landscape of a selected region. Any major data outliers are ignored, thus the map is smoothed. You will see artifacts where the curvature of a map in some areas is so great that the best fit polynomials are a little crazy.
One feature I've been wanting for a long time and finally have implemented is that of axis scaling. As my mod set grows my engine pushes more and more g/rev of air, requiring frequent map scalings. There is a scaling toggle button on each map that allows the user to modify axis values, and have the interpolated map values be generated in unison.
Issues:
GUI is a little wonky, for lack of a better word this time of night. Axis values take up only as much room as they need, leaving the rest for the table data. For sparse tables this can look strange.
Not fully tested as said before. I have flashed ROMs edited by this program, but remember, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Requirements:
At LEAST Java 1.6 Runtime for Linux and Windows. LINK For JRE 1.6
Mac OSX needs the latest Java 1.6 Runtime to work. You'll need to alter your .profile to point to the new Java 1.6. Java 1.6 Mac OSX Link
