Im going to hold of on using the new installer a bit ... I need to add some to it and its not a major advantage. Its just going to cut the installer to about half the size and be a lot faster installing. Just got to get that tested first. Ohh and did I mention its easier on me building a release

I started off using just a .NET setup project. I found out in the next version of Visual Studio they are doing away with those so I had to find an alternative. I started using InstallShield and people were complaining of write permission issues on the installation directory. So I went to using Nullsofts (NSIS). I have a beta of the installer built with it but its not released yet. Its fairly simple and VERY customizable. It is probably the most customizable of the three. Ive still got some things to add to it but I think its going to be the simplest install for the user and the quickest, and it has the smallest footprint (611k vs 1500k).

DSMLink (and now ECMLink) log in a binary format that I don't believe Tom and Dave ever formally documented anywhere. You can peruse the source code for DSMLink v2, which might give you an idea of the V2 format:

http://www.ecmtuning.com/downloads/i...s_2_5_full.exe

(Once unzipped, you'll want to look in dsmlinksrc.jar; you'll probably want to start with com.ecmtuning.dsmlink.data.Dataset and friends.)

I believe they changed the format with V3, however, and I don't believe they have any plans to release the source for V3 after all the work they put into it.

ehh the way I view it is if they want to leave their logs in their own format thats their business. If they want to their users to be able to use software like mine they can easily add an export function to save it in CSV or just plain text format. every other logger does.

RPM, Time, TPS

If you want to graph Boost you can log it and it if you want to graph AFR you can log it. But these two arent required.
