Hi, I had a search but can’t seem to find a request thread for access to what I guess is a development area to be able to view https://bmw.spoolstreet.com/threads/setting-up-development-environment.2076/ - I just get “You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action.” When I try to open it. This was the closest I could find but if I've posted in the wrong place please move it.

I really need to build the script in the https://bmw.spoolstreet.com/threads/create-cic-script-from-a-to-z.2364/ thread, sadly even if I could access the https://bmw.spoolstreet.com/threads/setting-up-development-environment.2076/ thread to get that setup I’m not sure I really follow all the steps on the https://bmw.spoolstreet.com/threads/create-cic-script-from-a-to-z.2364/ thread ☹

I have a friend I’m trying to help out to update maps but usual 1b script just pulls a file with 1234567 at the front so not working, I’ve been looking for a script that can pull generalPersistencyData_DiagnosticSWTController file from car using USB stick to I can manually chop up at the right point instead, this thread looks to do exactly that as well as the 1b.hex part (which will of course fail for this car). I sold my car with CIC pro so even if I try and run through this I don’t have anything to test with to know if my (probably failed) attempt even does anything. My friend is really no good with this sort of thing, difficult enough to guide them through if I knew it worked and a nightmare if I’m trying to guide them through with a script I’ve made that likely wouldn’t even work at all! I really just need a script that can pull the generalPersistencyData_DiagnosticSWTController file from car using USB stick and then I can have a go at chopping it up myself to work OK.

Trying to help my friend out to put a smile on his face as this coronavirus situation has really messed him up, he’s miles away though and I’m still in lockdown so travelling all the way over just to grab this tiny file just isn’t feasible nor is posting him some cables etc, they don’t even have a laptop, just a fixed PC that’s at least 15 metres from the driveway.

Really hope someone can help me out, would be extremely helpful and much appreciated. Happy to send some beer money over for anyone who can help me out and hopefully send me a working version of the script from this thread (or any script that can save full generalPersistencyData_DiagnosticSWTController file from car using USB stick would be of interest). I’m sure this would be a really easy 2 minute job for someone who knows what they’re doing.

Hope you can help us out.

Thanks
