##How to use Autoexechack

Browse your hack, right-click the RAW button and save as in the root level of SD.

####Troubleshooting

If a hack does not work with your camera:

  • Make sure the file you saved in the SD is called 'autoexec.ash'
  • Make sure that the hack is supported by your camera.
  • Make sure the update files (HDXXXX.bin, update.cmd, settings.in and WXXX.bin) are not on the SD.
  • If you edited a autoexec.ash, make sure your editor saves the file as UNIX, otherwise it wont work.
  • If you edited a autoexec.ash, make sure you wrote the code correctly, head to chernowii.com to see a complete list of commands.
  • In Lock Exposure hacks, wait two seconds before pressing the shutter button.
  • Reformat SD card
  • Dont replace autoexecs!
  • Make sure you did not touch anything that is crutial
  • Try different SD/card reader
  • Make sure you are using one of the following SDs for your HERO3 Black / HERO3+ Black
  • SanDisk Extreme 32GB microSDHC (SDSDQXL-032G)
  • SanDisk Extreme 64GB microSDXC (SDSDQXL-064G)
  • Lexar 32GB SDHC 600x (LSDMI32GBSBNA600R)
  • Lexar 64GB SDXC 600x (LSDMI64GBSBNA600R)
  • Delkin 32GB SDHC (DDMICROSDPRO2-32GB)
  • Delkin 64GB SDXC (DDMICROSDPRO264GB)

Other SDs might not work.

Hi
I am using Hero 3 Black and i want to increase the exposure time. I have updated the firmware.
Please suggest me how i can increase the exposure time

For the firmware hack i am trying to modify the exposure time but i am failed to do so.. Please suggest me some possible recommendations. I am using this modified code and copying the file in the SD card of camera.
t app appmode photo
sleep 1
t ia2 -ae still_exp 100 1000 1000
sleep 1
t app button shutter PR
sleep 0.5
d:\autoexec.ash
REBOOT yes

Also for the file extension it is stated that i must change the file extension to .unix. Do i just need to rename the file name or i need it to open in linux and them change the extension to unix. For now, i am just changing the file extension after changing the variable values in notepad.

Thanks

Hi. How do you edit an autoexec.ash file and what program do you need? I want to customize the interval to 45 min (2700 seconds).

We are using the hack on Hero3+ and they are set to 30 min intervals(1800 seconds). It runs for 13 hours and then stops.
We are powering off of house power so the battery is not an issue. Any thoughts or suggestions of what might be wrong?

I have GP4 version 4.02.03 firmware. I cant get any script to work. I have tried San disk Ultra 32GB and San Disk Etreme plus 64GB....and saving as UNIX and different card readers. Is there any possibility to get this working?

Hi mawais102, i'd try this little variation instead:

t app appmode photo
sleep 2
t ia2 -ae still_exp 100 1000
t app button shutter PR
sleep 2
d:\autoexec.ash
REBOOT yes

Don't forget to include a line break after last line of code you write, if notm the script won't work (Still don't know why is it but it works for me)

Hi passegua! To use that code i use it like that:

t app appmode photo
sleep 1
t ia2 -ae still_exp 100 1/20
sleep 1
t app button shutter PR
sleep 4
d:\autoexec.ash
REBOOT yes

Where de first nuumber is the ISO, in my case i prefer always to set it on 100 that is the lowest value possible, and for de exposure time i choose to reference the values seen on cameras (obturation times, like 2, 1, 1/10, 1/100, 1/400, etc).

I'm not an expert, not at all, but i hope it helps.
