Glad to hear but surprised the 2020 key worked unless you selected the lifetime code which would explain it.

Thumbs up Update Worked like a Charm

Thanks BadSeed for the 2021 NEXT maps. I updated my maps to the latest version with the FSC code.

I too want to say thank you. I finally took the time to sort out the FSC number as well as update the maps.

Could anyone help me to get a fsc code? I downloaded the maps, but I'm not familiar with the code generation process, even looking at the extremely well detailed process from @badseed.
My vin 0S17917
Map Next North America 2021-1

I don't have ENET OBD cable. Appreciate if anyone can help with more details for a dummy. Thanks everyone!

Update prompt not showing up?

I have an NBT with 2016 maps on it and I'm trying to update it. I have a 32GB flash drive with 2020-1 maps loaded in it. When putting in this flash drive, the prompt popped up right away. But once I try the 2021-1 maps, nothing happens.

This is using the same exact flash drive, nothing changed but me deleting the 2020 maps and replacing it with the 2021 maps downloaded from here. I unzipped everything properly. Any idea why this is happening?

Help please.

I downloaded the two sets of files onto a 32GB USB.
When I get to this step (part 5) , I fail...
1. Extract BMW_CIC_FSC_Generator.exe from the ZIP file
2. Open BMW_CIC_FSC_Generator.exe
3. Select OK to download Lookup.xml file (computer needs internet access)
4. Select OK then close and open the program again
5. Select NBT then use Browse button to select FSC file. I select CIC here (2013 X5), but where is this FSC file supposed to be located?

I’ve tried more than ten times in the last two days.
Where am I going wrong?

Would love the links to the maps and the FSC generator.
I have a NBT Evo system needing the Australia maps if that's possible.

Thanks in advance and love your work!

You do need a FSC file. Please make sure you have ENET cable and follow the instruction clearly.

I just finish upgrading my F25 2015 tonight.
It also spent 1 hour to load the 2021 map

Through trial and error, I found a solution why many USB drives don't work despite FAT32 formatting.

Many drives are seen by the PC as "Local Drive" in "My computer", as if they were backup hard drives, not portable memory sticks. After inserting
the USB drive into your car and getting a message to update it, an error message then says to insert the USB drive, and you can't get past it. The solution is actually to use a USB drive that is recognized as "USB Drive" in "My computer". If it shows up as Local Drive, your car won't see it as a USB drive either. The solution is to get another USB drive. I believe it has something to do with windows compliance standards, whether your memory stick shows up as USB Drive or Local Drive.
