Xmod, versions?

[garbageman705]

Does anybody have any information about the xmod software. I heard that one version of it had bad solenoid timing and the sear would chew up the bolt.

I would like to get xmod but not if it chews up the bolt. how many versions of xmod were there and where can a guy find it?

Thanks.

Are you the guy to talk to about getting xmod?

Xmod 1.8 is the final one released. The previous versions all had one minor bug or another in them, usually not relatted to working the gun, but to the software itself. There are also different versions of 1.8 with different start points for the ramping. (Since there isnt enough room on the chip to make it user-adjustable, Lornecash just made a few different versions)

To get the Xmod software you are supposed to purchase a programmer from Lornecash. Go to http://www.niedtech.com/ for more info.

BigE is right and he answered almost everything you asked. I just want to complement his answer with two more points:

- The thing about "chewing" the bolt happened in the earlier BETA versions (1.5 and maybe 1.6) but mostly with bad timed guns and only in Full auto
- The 1.7 and 1.8 versions are almost the same (I still use 1.7 on mine, since I got it so stable). The main difference are the inclusion of the Millenium mode on 1.8 and the ramping starting settings BigE mentioned.

Now, go to the site he pointed you and talk to LorneCash, who developed the whole thing. One thing I can tell you for sure: it will be your dream Mag. Go for it. That software makes miracles. Trully.

So I've seen a certain web site that claims to have an mag over haul program that will flash your marker with any version of AGD software or XMod... I take it from the above quote and the XMod manual guide06.pdf that they may be breaking a license agreement with Lornecash. Thats too bad, I am glad I bought my programmer from Lornecash.

All I can say is be and buy from Lornecash... It's just good Paintball Karma.

You are right indeed. That's the right thing to do, otherwise you are doing piracy. He owns that code and worked hard over it. He deserves the right to receive something back and, still, it's cheaper than any board from any other manufacturer (considering the programmer also costs over half of what he asks for it).
