I tried hardly to go back to my ship in hangar... but didn't found how... sorry, I found one : self destruct :) :) really, can someone explain me how to get back to my ship in hangar ? thanks a lot !

Request docking. Follow your compass to the correct hangar. Your ship will be there.

Or drive about 2km away from the outpost and call your ship.

To my utter disappointment I have not found the presence of chlorophyll on the surface of Europa, but I did find a wreaked SRV and a canister of coffee yippee :D
AWSOME keep up the great work frontier developments!
 
i selected the option to install horizons and it is downloading now.
the notice on the launcher says that only people with the horizons SKU will have access.
WHAT is an SKU ?
 
as I understand it it means stock keeping unit which translates to an operating system capable of running said content
(please corret me if I am wrong) in other words a 64 bit operating system ect ect.........

ok thanks. it has downloaded and i have entered the game. so i guess i have an SKU.
 
SKU is a unique product number (kind of like the serial number)

the SKU has nothing to do with any operating system... if you take a look at your frontierstore owned products you will see each game you own has it's own sku (serial).

What they are saying is if you see the Elite Horizons SKU in your dashboard than you own the game and can (or should be able to) download the game via launcher.

I just wanted to say Horizon looks great and I will be excited to play it on the xbox1 when it is available. I stream Elite dangerous almost daily under the twitch name grinchiness38, and I was wondering if there was any word to when it would be coming to xbox1? Thank you in advance and fly safe from grinchiness38 (Twitch) XGN Grinch38 (Xbox1)

One of the devs posted yesterday that Horizons for Xbox is coming in "2016". That's as much as we know (so I would assume December 2016 until told otherwise ;) )
 
I am liking the new horizons and here are some pictures , I would like a keyboard and mouse layout for Svc controls as I had to find out my random pressing buttons

Hi!
For some reason I can not access Horizon Beta, it does not even appear on my launcher at all (just Betas for ships).

I am Alpha-backer with 200£ package that included access to all Beta´s, just came from a break to Horizon I so much waited, so is it something about this in launcher:

"Only customers who purchased the Horizons beta SKU will be eligible for the Horizons beta"

What is SKU?

And does Horizon Beta run in 32-bit operating system at all?

Thanks in advance!




E: I downloaded and installed launcher from support site, just can´t seem to find it anywhere, just same launcher opens with ships Beta.

Horizons is 64 Bit OS only! Contact the support for this problem!

Ships 1.5 is 32 bit and 64 bit available, do you see both in your launcher?

Anyone have good but cheap 64-bit to sell? Seems like I need one :)





E: I assume finalized Horizon is 64 bit too, right?

Yes ships Beta seem to work just fine in 32 bit, and launcher offers me both 32 and 64 bit ships Beta.

Yes HORIZONS will be released ONLY on 64-Bit OS that supports DX11, right now thats MICROSOFT WIN7, WIN8, WIN10 (64-Bit versions)!

Will Horizons support SLI? It seems pretty stable in normal mode but in SLI, it's like being inside a surreal painting with clipping everywhere and strange lines/slabs of solid colour all over the sky - but worst of all, what you're looking at directly, simply disappears... I have a pair of old 550's in SLI mode. (but, I have to sat, the game just about runs acceptably in normal mode too...

Elite should totally support SLI, I guess this is why they call it Beta, file a support ticket :)
