Update 14 is now available for Elite Dangerous Live (4.0) | Important release information

Just got home from work. Downloaded, patched, and installed the update through Steam in less than 15 minutes.

Haven't launched the game yet but so far no issues with the launcher. It updated smoothly, even the desktop icon, and all new options are there.

Dunno if anyone else experienced this but plotting a course to a planetside base correctly brings you there but it highlights a completely different planetside base with the selector. So visually it looks like you are gonna go somewhere else but following to your destination it's fine. Minor niggle.

Also graphics really seem to have improved.. dare I say it, they look almost .. Horizon-like!
Piglet could I be a pain and ask for a screenshot or two if you get a chance? No rush, I've made a note of course o7
 
Reposting since it seems quite game-breaking. Ships seem unable to jump more than a few LY's. On the other hand they use very little fuel even on long voyages since they draw fuel only from the small "local" fuel tank.
Please reset your Galmap route settings from "economical" to "fastest" as Update 14 reset it.

================================
Quick report: flashing when dropping to a FC is fixed as far as I can see. Flashing inside stations is very much reduced though some can be seen at times while in a large ship like a Corvette. I didn't see any at all while in my Cobra.

Maybe's just me but aliasing at longer distances, which previously was a terrible mess, is noticeably better now. Again, very noticeable when arriving at a carrier, and Ocellus or Orbis stations. Still can see the sizzling but it is clear enough that I can see details much farther back in Ocellus and Orbis stations.

Flashing part of the HUD when going in or coming out of FSD is still present, unfortunately.

All of the above is from a VR perspective.
 
well i am struggling with odd game behavior..

first i launch the epic launcher..
then i open ED to update it. it bites about 2.8gb of download
once download ends its updating and ends in success

now i try to launch the ED and fun begins.
i see button UPGRADE so i hit the button and then launcher hangs.
after half hour of freeze/hang i decided to close the ED and reopen
then it opens with WORKING on the greyed button and says something like update process in progress or similar
half hour later notthing. another half hour later no change. but freezes to death.
had to ctrl alt delete to close the dead ed launcher.
i login to frontierstore using epic credentials. success but downloadable product list is empty while epic store says i have Elite Dangerous. so cannot download new launcher.
i restarted computer and relaunched epic and it downloaded 2.8gb again. and whole process repeated. so update,update completed then whole fun with launcher hanging.
 
At the risk of sounding unpopular 🙂

The option to skip the cut scene would be lovely. I mean don't get me wrong. It's all very impressive and all that, but I've seen it quite a few times tonight (due to crashing etc) and I do now get the picture.
 
Was there only one upgrade to upgrade both Odyssey and Live Horizons? I was prompted to upgrade legacy horizons but not the live version.
