Hi everyone!
I've been using ML on my 60D and now I've moved to a 6D.
I know I need original 1.1.6 Firmware to do a clean install before aplying ML but I can only get the 1.1.7 from Canon's webpage, because they updated it.

Where can I download the original 1.1.6 firmware?
(Camera is now running 1.1.3)

Thank you so much!

Thank you, It worked.
As the link on the Nightly Build page drives you to Canon lastest firmware (1.1.7) maybe that should be corrected. Anyone can follow that link by mistake and end trying to ML over the 1.1.7 firmware (or just feel lost, like I was).

Somethink like this on each Nightly Build page would be nice:
Quote*If the provided link to Canon's original firmware download shows a later version than needed, look for the needed version 'here'

Just as a suggestion.
Thanks!

Here's what it says on that link:

EOS 6D Firmware Version 1.1.6 for Windows

File version: 1.1.8
File name: eos6d-v118-win.zip
Release date: 20 November 2017
Download
File Size: 22.01 MB

Do you recognize the problem?

Top of page -> Downloads -> Download Nightly Builds -> 6D -> Installation
and use linked firmware file.

Looks to me that the link is pointing to the right file and working properly:

Doh!

Ok--that page says it is "EOS 6D Firmware Version 1.1.6 for Windows" but the download link is for 1.1.8. Yeah, confusing.

I found it can be very difficult to locate a firmware 1.1.6 download. This video is a great tutorial for downloading Magic Lantern for specifically the 6D. A link to a 1.1.6 firmware download is also provided in the description of the video.

i don't get it. Just access Downloads -> Nightly Builds -> 6D
and you have it linked in Installation and Useful Links.

Please explain how this is complicated and we can try to make it more user friendly.
Do we have to create videos for every single camera ported and to become ported?
