    Still waiting on my tune. Not going to lie. I'm an upset customer.

    There is nothing moving at lightning speed yet. The 04B04 crew has had vF for over week now. No one is dropping tune bombs or new features. This is going to take months of learning before we can do much with vF as a collective.

    You're now on 04B04, right? How's that feeling? Enjoy that for a bit, see the differences, then deep dive into the Tune Pack when it gets delivered.

    Don't be the upset customer. We have had plenty of those. They do nothing but slow the progress.

    Search out @commbubba19 's (cumbubble's) posts in the Dev thread, for examples.

    My problem is that I was told that we wouldn't have to wait this long. Directly from OVTunes Facebook to me personally. Now what I was told is not valid and I feel lied to. With no update at all. Even a "hey guys it's going to be a few more days or a week before we can get to everyone sorry for the inconvenience!" Is better than checking my email nonstop.

    I never received a tune. Is the tune out for mine yet?

    Everyone from the start of TW has worn out the F5 key. Don't take it personally. You were not lied to. There's just a shitton going on behind the scenes and this is a brand new product.

    You will love the Tune Pack when you get it. We are all waiting, just like you.

    Yes. You can unlock 04B04 in vF with your Master Key. There are example tunes in there to learn with.

    I'll be waiting but I still believe that a 10 worded FB post would put a lot of minds at ease including mine.

    It is a two person company. How many posts do you see here and on FB. Would you rather that Mat and Rafael sit and spend at least a minute replying to every post? Not me.

    This is the exact reason why we are here with vF. Flash Kit peeps couldn't wait for tunes to develop, kept demanding changes, and kept expecting individual attention every second of the day.


    Don't be that guy. Don't derail vF.

    Not to sound like a bigger dummy than I am... buuutttt are there example tunes in there that'll work on my 2020 MT? I did not know those were in there. I've just held off doing anything until the tune pack is out!

    On these example tunes, are they better than the factory tune?

    In reference to factory, great question. It says that they are stock tunes.

    The example tunes are better than Stock, but not full OVT versions. That is where the Tune Pack comes in.

    I am doing the vF update now.

    I just updated. It looks like all MT Stock tunes are in there. No example tunes.

    I did unlock 04B14 in hope of some update fun when it happens.

    I thought the tunes in there are stock tunes, not modified.

    Yes. It looks like just Stock tunes for now. Only Lexus got a couple examples.

    The Example tunes are supposed to be light versions of the OVT full versions.

    Looking forward to the tune packs, but I assume they will be sent out after the release of corresponding ecu 2.0 final for flash manager.

    So if I have a 2018 MT with 04A70 is that outdated? Should I try to update it before I unlock my Ecu on VF?
