- Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:09 pm #4518 LuaLoader 0.6 is now availabe for download

The most important new feature is the ability to change the baud rate for communications.

It works perfectly at 921600 for me, which is very nice. YMMV. When the terminal rate is changed, a Lua command is sent to the ESP, so the change is totally transparent. (Requires current firmware bin).

More New Features:

0.60 Upload with no echo.
0.60 Set baud rate up to 921600.
0.58 Monitor firmware and API on github and notify of changes.
0.58 Added more examples to try.
0.55 Date stamp the log file each time [dofile] is clicked.
0.55 Tools menu - links to download latest firmware, flasher
0.55 Added 74880 to baud rate list.
0.55 Allow non-standard baud rates.
0.54 tmr.stop() - stops timers 0 and 1 on click and upload.
0.53 View Log menu item (file association must be set for .log).
0.53 Edit button for lua files (file association must be set for .lua).
0.52 Added support for pullup resistors in gpio.mode()
0.51 Checks for using latest LuaLoader and latest NodeMCU.
0.51 Logs to a file.
0.51 GPIO monitor shows on a single line.
0.51 Optionally hide garbage when doing node.restart().

0.5 Autorepeat GPIO read function for monitoring an input.
0.5 Sample code included in zip file.
0.5 Additional Help links to useful resources.

0.4 Set mode, read and write GPIO buttons.
0.4 Status Bar shows latest LuaLoader and NodeMCU version at start.

Enjoy!

If I understand you correctly, you are clicking [LOAD] when there is no init.lua to load from the Working directory folder.

That just gives "file not found" on 0.65, so I think it has been fixed.

If not, please let me know exactly how you got the error.

Thanks,

Peter

- Sat Dec 13, 2014 9:44 pm #4772 Under the same conditions and with the same module, the program LuaUploader is working properly.

I flashed the firmware module nodemcu_512k.bin 12/12/2014 using ESP8266Flaysher. When you start LuaLoader this message appears, and then closes LuaLoader (but still present in RAM - you can see in Task Manager). I have Windows 7 64-bit. Previous releases LuaLoader (up to 2014.12.12) worked fine.
So what happens when first launched the LuaLoader, and then turn on the power module.
