Thanks! I'm a bit of a ship collector anyway, so might get a Chieftain AND a Challenger.

If you have the cash, do it. You won't be disappointed. In fact, I jumped on the new "invasion stripes" paint job for the Chieftain the instant it came out. It's named the USS Laffey after the WWII Cruiser of the same name.Thanks! I'm a bit of a ship collector anyway, so might get a Chieftain AND a Challenger.
I totally disagree with the martian (I won't bother linking people that ignore me). To me it seems stupid to head towards a swarm and also risk the shutdown field. What @aRJay says is what I do and it has never failed me.
BTW - I have a Krait MkII with the ax multicannons and it works fine against scouts in a CZ - I just jump out when an interceptor appears.
Damn. Two in a row. Is this a feature of 14.02?
That's three for three, oh deary me, time to move away from this dismay.
Ahhhhh...
You're a poet and didn't know it. Make a rhyme every time.
I'll show myself out.

What's up with CZ's atm?
Just had a virus upload that failed - even though it had uploaded... on relog i had no virus to upload ;p
Think there might be a new bug, with the Apex service - seems one can't select an in-system target for a long-range booking... unless you go out & try again - much like the FC bug in 14.01 ...is this a new server-side "whack-a-mole" mini game i wonder ;]

Is this an on-foot CZ you're talking about Tyres? Or another kind of CZ?
It's just that I did several on-foot CZs when I was in Deciat yesterday and the day before but didn't get any bugs.
On foot. All in one system, all medium.
Ah, ok. I was going to suggest giving Deciat a try but I just checked that system again and there's no longer any CZs there according to its system map. Didn't last long - only a couple of days at most as there were none there when I first arrived and only appeared a few hours afterwards.
So back to the ring rendering conversation we were having I don't remember how long ago; I'm doing some Robigo Mine runs to replenish some materials and get used to flying with a HOTAS.
Here's the rings leaving Robigo Mines:
And here's the rings when I get back:
That's not an Nvidia thing. That's an Odyssey / FDev thing.

Just FYI, you can't see the on-foot CZs on your system map unless you are actually in the system. So checking from afar doesn't work.
Ah ok cheers. I might go back there then and do some more.
Where are our journal files, anyway? I use Steam and it's installed on my G: drive, G:\Promgram Files (x86)\Steam, after that I don't know where to look.
%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\
I found them, I guess Steam puts them in a different place, C:\Users\Your Name\Saved Games\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous. Lots of stuff in there.
That's exactly what the %USERPROFILE% address that I gave you does. The %USERPROFILE% saves you typing the C:\Users\Your Name\ ...
Similarly %LOCALAPPDATA% makes the address for %LOCALAPPDATA%\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\Options\Binding easier to pass on to people as one doesn't need to give a path which needs "yourname" to be changed.

The Type 6 seems to be a capable ship for material collecting. It is nimble enough to scoop up materials floating in space if you run out of Limpets and quite good for precise planetary landings. And on top of that, this:
I had to recall the ship after accidentially sending it away and it landed right behind me. This was the closest one, but any recall landing was around and mostly below 500m in a flat, easy to reach spot. My Cobra would usually land about 1,000+m away, even in a place like the one above. And it would usually require some serious rock crawling to get there.

Yes, I thought that's what I did, I must have screwed up coping it, I dug around a bit and located them, thanks for you're help.
