I didn't change the VATS setting in your bin. That is what both HPT and Tunercat OBD2 showed it to be.

that's fine, the truck starts with the file so I'll let it be. trying to figure out universal patcher keep getting an error msg

i just checked the original file that you posted with universal patcher, and it clearly shows P0443 as enabled:

if you used the correct XDF to edit this, the XDF has issues

i just posted on pcm hacking in the thread where this XDF lives. I think phoenix over there is pulse_gto over here, and as far as i can tell he's the brain behind the plethora of excellent P59 XDF's that we have

Yeah the XDF has issues. Still trying to get universal patcher to work I keep getting an error msg and can't load any bin. files idk what I'm doing wrong

**slow76_c10** · 07-11-2023

What does the error message actually say? Maybe it can point you in the right direction as to what's wrong?

**slow76_c10** · 07-11-2023

Error, frmTuner, line 0: C: \Users

**slow76_c10** · 07-11-2023

It will only open if copy to desktop, I must be doing something wrong but I'm not sure what

**NomakeWan** · 07-11-2023

It's probably less you and more that there's some bug in Universal Patcher related to file paths and/or permissions.

Try creating a folder in the root of a drive and put all your stuff in there instead. For example, if you only have a C:\ drive, then you'd make a folder called "Patcher" and so would be at C:\Patcher. Then put all your BINs in there, run the program from there, etc.

Alternatively you can try running the program as administrator in case it's an issue with NTFS permissions.

Lots of "indie" programs have issues when it comes to dealing with Windows directory structures and permissions. Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if Universal Patcher was one of them.

Can you post the errors you get. Also did you get the full zip folder, maybe some files are missing from the program.

Permissions is big problem for most programs, but not sure it applies to universal patcher.
