Need to link the sources also
It’s linked here right? With that link you can see all past changes as well.
It’s better to link a commit if you can because those repos don’t use tags or releases or follow many conventions. This will become very difficult to find in no time at all.
Anybody known where I can find the Vesctool 3.00.apk for Android ? I don’t trust 3.01 and FW 5.3 .after it messed with my HFI settings.
I reverted to 5.2 firmware, and know 3.01 is supposed to be backwards compatible, but I’d prefer to have the 3.00 version.

did you find a solution for this?
Bad news. I received a request from Benjamin to remove binary releases from here:
I will do it on Monday.

That sucks the big one. Would you be prepared to upload the Mac versions to the original post here before you do so?

At this point the thing to do is make a user friendly build script that strips out the anything trademarked.
This should already have been in the repo, if standard practices were being followed.

Wait so where are we supposed to get old versions now?
Oh huh I didn’t actually realize they were locally hosted

Note that i will be keeping a copy of every version on my storage cluster.
Any files that the community wants to keep, i will store them.
Everyone can always pm me for the files

There is no need for older versions as the archive is built into VESC-Tool now.
Currently available in BETA only, but the next release will also have this feature.
You can load any old FW using BETA and then continue with stable if you like, or use BETA, as VESC-Tool will role back the UI when it finds old FW.
Oh perfect, I haven’t used the new vesc tool much so I didn’t know

There is because vesc tool still throws stones at you when using an older firmware with a newer tool.

I haven’t experienced that. Most things like motor detection are actually handled by the FW. VESC-Tool just tells the FW to perform the task. The FW then runs the detection routine and reports back the results.
So if you use an older FW, the detection for example differs from using a new FW.
Changing settings like Max Motor Current etc. can be done with the latest Tool and the settings will be stored on the ESC just the same way they would be stored with the old Tool.

Hate to play devils advocate but since 3.x I haven’t had issues configuring old firmware vescs
Most of the time I end up just updating to 5.2 tho

The App is up to date anyway and you can use it to configure anything from 3.55 onwards. So the desktop version is just the same. There is no need for old VESC-Tool releases.

I will help to compile and package new versions as before if needed, just won’t keep binary releases on GitHub.

The MAC version is available on www.vesc-project.com. Jeffrey Friesen is compiling it for Benjamin Vedder. It can be found in the purchased files folder. If it doesn’t show up, you have to checkout the VESC-Tool again, either the free version or any donation version.
