Is it the one in your avatar?
Love snakes, used to be heavily into herpetology in my teens. Always wanted a pet python. Will never forget meeting an anaconda in Costa Rica, damn those things are big!

You guys ever hear about how miners would take canaries with them deep into a mine shaft so that, if the canary died, they knew the air was foul and could evacuate?
Well ... call me a canary.
I flew to the edge of the "Forbidden Zone" on Eafots LZ-H b10-0 D 1. Took me a few tries to get close enough without CTD. I landed, hopped into my SRV, and drove into the zone. Now every time I launch the game I get an immediate CTD.
As soon as I can get into the game without crashing ... I'll let you guys know. Meanwhile, I'll be flying the second account. There's a new CG calling me to Colonia.
Launch the game in non-Horizons mode and you'll appear in orbit, no crashes

Dear Canary, load non horizons ED if you wish to become a phoenix...

Here we have an example of another fool who doesnt read the forums, for the past week commanders have been trying to get into the CTD area, theres a reason why it CTD your client it isnt because were special its because that part of the map isnt there no matter what tricks you think you can try a thousand commanders have already tried. it will not load sorry pal. If your really that bored, head to another beacon waypoint and search for the settlements there. if theres one of them according to a dumpfile i bet a lot of dollars theres more on those planets were the rally beacons point. A lot of commanders have reported Non POI's so far, i have gone through every planet a poi was reported to find none in its location leaving me to surmise that there must be something else on these planets.

Well I've spent a couple of days driving around on the surface no with now CTDs (apart from the initial attempt to de-orbit). Maybe I'm in the wrong place, but I'd like to try.

No, no. I'm here quite on purpose. I deliberately WANT to be in a spot where I get the CTD as soon as I launch the game. Loading non-horizons would be counter productive to my purpose. The day I can log in and NOT get the CTD then I'll know that the bug has been fixed (or the content has been removed).
Meanwhile I'll keep playing via the 2nd account.

I'm near +9, -140
Oh you poor naive fool.
You'll know it's been fixed when you read about it on the forums whilst you're at work
Thanks. If I find anything I will write your name in the dust with SRV.

I think we should get FDev to create a "I went to the Formidine Rift and all I found was this lousy t-shirt." T-shirt.
Cheers,
Drew.
If you can produce that on some underpants worthy of an explorer I'll buy some
Also it wasn't a "mis-jump" as the message inferred the ship lacked hyper-space technology.
I understand what you're doing, and I am parked at the velvety red rope of the CTD queue.
BTW, is it just me or has the FZ expanded since it was discovered? I used to be able to fly in almost on top of -15, -169 but now 9N seems to demark the CTD.

That's not a Rift in the foreground, it's a Gap!
The Rift is just over a third of the way across from the right, a little indentation!

Ok Canary!
Quick everyone, sneak in and build a couple of CoR & Alliance bases on Eafots LZ-H b10-0 D1!

I think Drew should have a hand in the design!

So ... you're saying that as soon as it gets 'unbugged' I'm going to login and be surrounded by hostile skimmers?

Murphy's law predicts that to be the case

OACAAC! (*).
But don't believe the Federation & Imperial black propaganda about Salome & CoR. Two major powers' terrorists are an Independent's Resistance Movement fighting for truth & justice for all! Also for freedom of the press, widespread knowledge of state secrets, & free Lavian brandy mince pies at Christmas!
The skimmers wouldn't be hostile, they'd just be there to protect you from hostile forces, for your own protection, to stop you doing something you shouldn't, like claim the settlement for INRA.

Canary in the coal mine, what CoR can do now is continue to expand their minor faction presense in the bubble and see how that works out
Anyone seen any feedback on the bug?

expecting at least after xmas before it is patched, it would require a patch to fix it to
I just checked the bug report: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...CTD-on-drop-to-normal-space-after-orbit/page2
QA Mitch needs copies of dxdiag and netlogs. I'll upload mine when I get home.
I think we should get FDev to create a "I went to the Formidine Rift and all I found was this lousy t-shirt." T-shirt.
On the planet surface when people can finally land without crashing to desktop, they need to find a single cannister of T-shirts with that in the description.
