  • Added a filter for “Nothingburger” openpilot crashes
  • Decreased the ceiling for “Lead Detection Threshold” to 99%
  • Fixed a few bugs with the “Cinco De Mayo” theme
  • Fixed an issue where openpilot would think the lead is a bit farther than it really is
  • Fixed an issue where the default lane detection threshold was 9 feet as opposed to 2.75 meters if “Nudgeless Lane Change” was toggled off

  • May 1st, 2024 Update for FrogPilot v0.9.7: Highlight Features
  • Device Management – I’ve moved a handful of toggles to the new parent toggle “Device Management” that holds well, device management related toggles. You’ll find existing toggles such as “Device Shutdown Timer” and “Offline Mode” along with a new toggle to customize the battery level threshold. This shuts down the device when your car’s battery falls below a set voltage to help prevent draining your battery too low when your car is off!
  • Model Switcher V7 – New models are now available without having to update FrogPilot! Simply go to the “Controls” panel and “Model Selector” to manage your existing downloaded models, or to download new models! If a new model is released that doesn’t require any code changes, these will automatically populate under the “Download Model” option. If you just want to use the “recommended” model, just leave “Model Selector” toggled off and it’ll automatically select the model the community agrees is the “best” model. Feel free to assign yourself the “Model Maniac” role in ⁠role-assignments to stay up to date whenever a new model is added!

April 8th, 2024 Patch for FrogPilot v0.9.6:

  • Updated mapd from v1.8.1 to v1.9.0 which comes with quite a handful of fixes for MTSC. Feel free to disable the “Model Curvature Detection Failsafe” and “Speed Change Hard Cap” toggles and provide feedback in the ⁠map-turn-speed-controller channel if the latest version works for you! I plan on removing these toggles in the next update, so if you run into any false positives, please let me know!

March 1st, 2024 Update for FrogPilot v0.9.6: Highlight Features

  • Fleet Manager Refinements – Thanks to @Mike, “Fleet Manager” has received a handful of touch ups and refinements! You’ll find dashcam footage previews in the “Dashcam Routes” tab to be able to find your desired route with ease! The “Navigation” tab has also received a handful of bug fixes when working with the “MapBox” and “AMap” APIs, along with the new “Tools” tab to retrieve and modify your current toggle configuration so you can alter them from either your phone or desktop with ease!
  • Speed Limit Controller Refinements – With some help from @syncword (’21 Niro PHEV), I went through and cleaned up a handful of the logic for “Speed Limit Controller” to provide a more refined experience! On top of these refinements, you’ll find all of the “Speed Limit Controller” related toggles to be located within the “Speed Limit Controller” parent toggle as opposed to scattered in 4 different places and with an additional toggle to only change the desired speed limit upon confirmation. You can confirm the new speed limit by either taping on the screen or pressing the cruise increase/decrease button on your steering wheel to confirm/deny the new speed limit.

February 17th, 2024 Patch for FrogPilot v0.9.6: Model Switcher V6 – The model switcher has been completely rewritten from the ground up with many enhancements to suit!

  • Calibration reset is now optional when selecting a new model
  • Models are now precompiled on installation which allows you to switch models without requiring a reboot and completely resolves all issues when the selected model fails to compile
  • Reboots are now quicker when you have a custom model selected
  • Total download size is reduced
  • Your selected model doesn’t get reset when new models are added or removed, and is instead only reset when your selected model doesn’t exist anymore

February 16th, 2024 Update for FrogPilot v0.9.6: Highlight Features

  • Custom Alerts – This week I added a new parent toggle called “Custom Alerts”. I moved the “Green Light” alert here and added new alerts for when the lead vehicle starts to depart and you’re at a standstill, a louder “Car Detected in Blindspot” alert, and for when the current speed limit changes when using “Speed Limit Controller”. If you would like to see more alerts added to this section, feel free to request it in the ⁠feature-requests forum!
  • Map Turn Speed Controller Limiter – Do you ever run into issues where you’d get random brake slams on a straight road and wonder what the heck that was about? Well, this is due to “MTSC” reading road data from “OSM” and due to some of the road elements, it’s tricking it into thinking there’s a curve when there really isn’t. So this week’s includes 2 “failsafes” to help prevent that from happening. The first one is a simple curve detection similar to how the curve detection for “Conditional Experimental Mode” works, and hard cap for MTSC. If MTSC request a speed change greater than the cap set, MTSC wont activate.
