Did you install them or just download them?

 

I downloaded the framework but not the program. Once I downloaded the program, it came up. All good now.

 

Done downloading and install.

Two points. When I tried to download the 4.6 .net app, my Windows 10 said that I already have it. I did a search and can't find it, but it must be buried in there, because everything worked as flsdiver said it would.

Next, fls, am I correct in assuming that I need to buy that Amazon dongle or some alternative, to transfer settings data to/from the truck?

Remember, I'm a little slow.

 

1). Installer for as built Hacker should download .net framework for you if needed, then install itself. No need for you to get it separately. Seems to be some confusion on this, tried to make it easy.

2) Reading and writing to the vehicle is not handled by this program. Hardware that is compatible with forscan software would be required for that. Covered in other threads.

 

I have made some changes with the forscan program on my truck. I am trying to understand what the ASbuilt hacker actually does? I know you have taken your time to create I just want to know what it does? If I was guessing it is a program that stores all of your .ABT files and you can sort them by VIN?

 

1) For most users, it will compare AsBuilt fro m ford to the abt files from forscan and show changes done to that one vehicle.

2) For most users again it is easy way to apply what I call known options. Especially once I map a lot more of those. The many special editors make I simple to change text data like vin or country, or power point time. Program will also remember your changes, no more wondering what you did.

3). For advanced users, multiple vins can be compared and it will highlight the differences in bytes and bits for each line of each module. This was hugely important when I was looking for ambient lighting enable in BCM, before that was known.

3). Very advanced users can create their own known options file for other models simply from within the program (add new known option context menu.

All of the configuration files are external to the app and can be supported/downloadable without me releases required.

 

flsdiver....Thank you so much

Is there a print option to keep or refer to a hard copy?

 

OP Thanks alot for supporting the community. I installed your program and was just checking my VIN, it says I do not have locking rear differential but my truck has a locking rear end. Otherwise I love the app a lot. I can't wait for FORD to fix a problem in my FCIM module so I can start modding.

 

OK, enhancement request noted for future release.

 

Just got a peek at this on a Windows 7 computer at my office. This is pretty cool. Plug in your vin and it automatically loads the data. My question is: Is the data more complete than the data you can grab from Asbuilt web site? Seems so at a quick glance.
