Why use a calibration?
This section details the benefits of using a calibration file (.cal) instead of a .bin file for editing the ROM's parameters.
Note: Bin saving is only
possible in Tuner Version of eCtune
Calibration Benefits
- Calibration Holds all the
settings of the tune.
-Tables
-All settings
-Comments
-EVERYTHING - Calibraitons are universal
- Calibration are backwards compatible
- Calibration can be opened in eCtune, eCtune will use the baseRom stored in the program.
- File extention *.cal
- Tuner version can import/export calibrations
Example:
If you make a tune with rombase
0.0.35 and save a calibration.
Then, if you open the calibration with an updated ectune
version/rombase e.g. 0.0.37 -- Every setting will be in the new bin with rombase
0.0.37. New settings/options in 0.0.37 rom that are not in 0.0.35 will not be
overwritten. They will have the default values.
