How to Get Esysx

I'm trying to get into coding my X5, but am having trouble tracking down a launcher. Launcher Pro seems impossible to get so I went with Esysx, shelling out $138. All I got was a confirmation that they have my money and no instructions on how to actually download it. This was on Christmas, but now it's Sunday and still nothing.

Does anyone know what the process is supposed to be? I'm just wondering if I need to get PayPal involved to cancel the transaction.

Unlike Launcher Pro, there is no process — you pay them, you get a key a few days later. Considering it's holidays, not everyone in the world takes just 1 day off away, and ESysX is also a 1 man operation, I'd give it a few more days.

I guess I'm jut too responsible to collect peoples' money with no one able to fill orders at the other end. I would have taken down the ability to collect money or at least not left the customer in the dark about what is going on. That's just piss poor customer service, pure and simple. If it was $5 maybe. Sorry for the rant, and thank you! I was just really hoping to do some coding on my off time and the cavalier attitude from the vendor about paying customers is a bit offputting.

I certainly agree, but just try to remind myself the theory stating "Don't ascribe malice to that which can more simply be explained by incompetence". Coding is a hobby for the community and the few vendors are far from business-savvy people, yet their work enables the hobby.

Will ESysX work with a 2020 G05 M50i?

The regular ESys Launcher does not.

Why do you mean esys doesn't work? You can't even VO code with that? You only need EsysX if you want to do FDL coding. I don't see why it won't work for the M50i since it works for all other G05 models. All the ECUs are the same.

I have the latest psdzdata files and with E-Sys 3.27.1 with E-Sys Launcher Premium 2.8.2 ( where you have to go and change your laptop clock back to 2018)

When trying to map the t he E-Sys cheat codes on the forum, you cannot find any of them, not even the ASS.

I was told I need Launcher Pro 3.x

Do you think I am doing something wrong? I never had a problem with my F15.

Yes, you need E-Sys 3.33+ and Launcher Pro 3.6+ or ESysX for G05.

OK bought E-sysX, got the link and downloaded. EsysX-9-01693-setup.7z
On a Lenovo laptop with Windows 10 64 bit.
Unpacking with Winopener
See the EsysX-9-01693-setup with 0KB ?

Click it and get the message "This app can't run on your PC. To find a version, check with the software publisher."

I don't think we're really PC tech support, but obviously 0KB is not right. Most likely your archiver or archive is corrupt. I would use real 7zip to unarchive, 7z archives have a history of not really being any kind of a "standard".
