Release ED-Intelligent Boardcomputer Extension

Okay, little problem. RN about 40% of the time thinks 'MED' means 'LOW'. I've tried changing (ever so slightly each time) the OCR Calibration, tried changing the 'UI Color Cutoff Level' and also changed the TesseractOCR 'traineddata' file to 'eng'.

But a lot of the time, I get this:

Low_for_Med.JPG

For instance, all these 5 (five) 'LOWS' in RN, are actually all 'MEDS' in the OCR data and in the screenshots:

All_Lows_Should_Be_Meds.JPG

It only ever happens with 'MEDS', no mistakes with 'HIGH' or 'LOW'.

I'm sure this is just my ignorance showing, but....

RN's mostly working great, OCR works great, everything is running smooth except it can't determine my "Current Location"
I assume current location is the station? It just says "scanning...."

I have verbose logging on, so I don;t know what else to try.

What am I missing here?
 
I think one of the recent ED updates removed the station and/or position being recorded in the ED log file. Don't think it's an issue with RN.

RN still works for me though :)

Yeah, as Antrys wrote, that piece of information no longer appears in the logs, so there's no longer any way for RN to retrieve that data. I just use one of the dropdown and select the station in RN - that's the only way at the moment.
 
@Rapster: RN has a Low/MED weakness. But you can ignore it. These
values are never evaluated.

@"scanning..." issue:
yes, since 1.3 there's no more a station information in the logs. So RN remains in "Scanning...."

lol

You have no idea what I've been through trying to eliminate these LOW/MED errors. xD

Okay, good to know I can now officially give up with trying thousands of different settings.

Thanks Duke!
 
new version out : v1.84_0.27

  • changed EDDN receiving routine to v2/v1 schema
  • changed EDDN sending routine to v2 schema
  • cleaned up a little bit the involved codes
  • added a list of "trusted senders" (in settings-file) for programs who are expected so send correct market data to negotiate the plausibility filter
  • fixed the behaviour for ocr when location is still "scanning..."
  • fixed the behaviour for "Market Data Collected Event" when location is still "scanning..."
  • system location will be set if market data is scanned, and will be reset if leaving the location
  • added "SAP 8 CORE CONTAINER" to the base commodities
  • added latest EDDB files
  • added a icon (thanks to SpyMaster356)
  • cleaned up a little bit the involved codes
 
Hi Duke,

first of all, amazing Tool, I love it.
Is there a "correct" way to Update your Releases? Since every time i update i need to recalibrate, my Logs are gone, and all the Prices i had.

Cheers

You only have to overwrite the existing files with the new files from the zip

Painful...just hope you haven't deleted your old folder...
 
Hi Duke!

I would like to revisit this issue of 'MED' being seen as 'LOW', as I don't know whether you have spotted this pattern...

The 'MED being seen as 'LOW' happens predominantly in the 'Supply Level' column and very rarely in the 'Demand Level' column and I mean very rarely, maybe 1 instance out of every 5-6 Stations OCR'ed.

I'm not sure whether that helps you, it just seemed a bit strange where at least half of the 'MED' in my results are 'LOW' in the 'Supply Level' column and hardly ever in the 'Demand Level' column.

As you say, they're not taken into account for any calculations, it's just that my OCD won't allow me NOT correct them. lol

But, on a slightly more serious note, the levels give me a quick indication as to whether it's a decent price for a particular commodity.

Thanks for listening...you can now tell me to shut up and to stop going on about 'MED', 'LOW, 'MED', 'LOW, 'Med', 'Low', 'Med', 'Low', 'med', 'low', 'med', 'low'........... :D

P.S. This hasn't been one of my 'HIGH' points, has it? ;)

P.P.S. Just wanted to let you know that you surely have made a few improvements in the last update, I particularly like the auto-population of Station name, which is a very pleasant addition - thank you, Duke!

Duke, one other thing, whilst I remember, aren't the columns 'Buy Price' and 'Sell Price' the wrong way round in 'Price Analysis' --> 'Station-To-Station'?

For instance, in this snip you can see that 'Sell Price' is lower than the 'Buy Price' in a profitable trade run. Surely the column names should be swapped?

That always confuses me for a second every time I see it! :D

Well, it worked yesterday.....

I upgraded to the latest version yesterday and it worked great. Today, the program hangs and I have to kill it in task manager.
The splash screen stays up for a very long time and I get the "waiting/working" spinning windows cursor. The Task manager show it using a constant 25% CPU on my machine.

Eventually, minutes later, I get this screen. (Notice the "label 92")
RN2.jpg
At this point I can poke around in the program until I get into price analysis tab, then it locks.

Here's my log file:

UPDATE: I overwrote the program with that from the zip and used all the bak files in \data just in case it was corrupted data. No effect. Same problem.
Update 2: Well I guess it's kind of working. Everything I click on gives me the spinning "working" cursor, and if I wait for like 5-10 minutes it does eventually switch the screen/do it's thing. But this isn't right.

Something has gone very wrong with your post too, Antrys. :D

First of all, get another copy (or the original download) of 'RegulatedNoise_v1.84_DukeJ_027.zip', unpack it and see if that freshly unpacked copy works. If it does, then you know something got messed up in your existing copy. If this too doesn't work, then you know the problem's with your PC.

P.S. Antrys, you may want to use 'spoiler' tags and pop your images in them in the future. It'll keep your posts neat and tidy and much, much easier to read and understand.

Spoiler tags:
[ SPOILER]<Your Image>[ /SPOILER] - Juts get rid of the spaces after both opening square brackets, like such; "[S..."

The above sentence in a spoiler would look like this:
[ SPOILER]<Your Image>[ /SPOILER] - Juts get rid of the spaces after both opening square brackets, like such; "[S..."

You can put logs and other text heavy items in spoiler tags, too.

P.P.S. Is your Windows version usually black, that is, have you customised it to have a black interface? That *usually* denotes an 'unlicensed' version of Windows and could be the reason why RN isn't working as certain elements of Windows get disabled...

P.P.P.S I get the 'Label 92' in my install too, but it doesn't stop it from working. It looks like it's only a misplaced/missing string which shouldn't stop the program from working. That's not your problem, I don't think.

No, it seems a few people have problems with the new versions - but not all.
I have to investigate this. If you get too much trouble go back to a older version
until there's a new release.

sorry


@Antrys:
can you send me your lastest "Elite Dangerous" logfile, please (in the game path)

Ah, okay! Good evening Duke!

P.S. The frog says 'Hi!' too...

Edit: You haven't changed to a different version of Visual Studio, have you?

Edit 2: Maybe some people haven't got all the VS updates installed?

I know you mean well, but I find it kind of offensive to say a black windows interface "usually" denotes my windows version is somehow unlicensed. Seriously? It's called: Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Personalization.
I did the same to RN. It's right there on the home screen. wow. just wow. As to your other suggestions, I already did them.

And what's gone "very wrong" with my post? There was an uncropped image I uploaded by mistake that the interface wouldn't let me delete.
Also, why why isn't the spoiler tag on by default then, if it's so important.

Sorry if I sound aggravated, but your post rubbed me that way.

I meant no insult whatsoever! I didn't realise I even managed to write anything insulting in my comment, it was just a question, asking whether you had customised your interface, which you have. I too have a very dark Windows UI, but the vast majority of times I have seen a predominantly or completely black UI has been down to the questionable legality of the product concerned. It was only a comment made in passing, I wasn't judging/implying/insinuating anything - I apologise that my post was construed that way and for upsetting you. :)

Your previous post - oh well, I suppose the big laughing green thing at the end of the sentence didn't work - sorry mate, for this also, I really, really did not mean to offend.

As for posting 'instructions' for spoilers, well, I did that because a lot of people don't know about them. They are 'hidden' in the advanced section and I've seen a lot of posts including DXDiags just popped into them, usually rendering the post/thread difficult to read and a chore and it gets ignored. Apologies for this also..

Wow, I haven't apologised this much since I was late on my wedding day! :D

P.S. Just delete the attached items if you want to get rid of unwanted images in the edit panel. (This is just a tip for the future, I'm not being nit-picky or having a go or anything like that.)
