Question regarding using the EDProfiler I've installed it but when I click on it to run it nothing happens, or do you need to be running ED at the same time?

Downloaded Profiler last night and am enjoying tooling about with it. Seems to work fine so far for me.Thank you.

Regarding scanner colours, I'm trying out some green HUDs which i like but does anyone have a suggestion how to set up so you can differentiate targets into friendlies and neutrals? I'm guessing with a green base colour that will be tricky?

I have the same problem. Nothing happens when I run EDProfiler whether or not I have ED open.

Thanks for the new version Dr Kai, nice one!

Is it possible to de-clutter the test screen a little, it's a mess ;) and include an NPC face in there, so we can see what effect our profile has on the faces in game please? Would greatly appreciate. Thanks!

Not sure guys, no reason why it shouldn't run. Try reinstalling (which involves uninstalling, and renaming the %localappdata%\apps\2.0 folder before reinstalling via INTERNET EXPLORER (not chrome or firefox)

Well the image I have included has all 3 security levels, so you can compare and just learn it. If you are hell bent on keeping it green/orange/red then you really have to get the exact right combination. I might include some tool that helps create the right settings to keep those one day.

De-clutter? hehe no, the whole point is to give every possible HUD element to the user so they know exactly what they are getting. Only downside is it might annoy some neat-oriented people, but I prefer utility over aesthetics. I have tried to make it fairly neat, despite all the clutter.

And as for your second question. Yes. In case you haven't been following, Avatars work differently, and so I had to work out how to transform them the same way the game does. I've cracked it, and will be including them in a very imminent update. Stay tuned.

There is now an avatar tester in the HUD editor. It is functional but sometimes there are some colour splotches on the avatars that don't actually show up in the game, and I've also started to notice other inconsistencies - although it seems to be mostly accurate. You can still tell them apart from real colour combinations that don't work, especially if you use the DR. KAII SUPER HAIR TEST. If his hair is green, it works in game. End of.

Still, I'd like to perfect it (if possible) so this is still considered beta.

My old "ED Profiler" shortcut has now disappeared so I can't run this or get to my old profiles at the moment.

I tried turning off all my virus protection and re-installing it again but to no avail. I also went to uninstall it (prior to re-installing again) but I can't find it to uninstall (i.e. it doesn't appear in the Windows 10 programs and features list). Oh, and I tried downloading with IE aswell.

Help! (please)

Hi, you're not the only one. However, I don't know what caused it. I just cleared the FTP folder and uploaded again and tested and it worked fine for me. Please try again and lmk

Cheers, I'll try again tonight. Had the other person done the Windows 10 Creators update by any chance? I've had a few problems since then. Also can't install ED Toolbox. I'm wondering if Windows 10 is blocking things.

I found a small bug which occurs when the app is running and a setting in the Elite graphics is changed:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.IO.IOException' occurred in System.Windows.Forms.dll

Additional information: The process cannot access the file 'C:\Users\Camu\AppData\Local\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\Options\Graphics\custom.fxcfg' because it is being used by another process.

Windows shows a "application stopped working" dialog and then it closes. Maybe you should catch it, ignore it and then re-read the file? :)

Yep, that's been on my mind for a long time, but keep forgetting about it. Will sort it out now!

Not sure. I think it was probably an ftp thing

Ok updated with the above fix, as well as removed the text about how Avatars work. I think that's a little too cocky for now. I have found a few that really don't. Need to keep working on this.

FYI that was an all nighter, and still didn't quite get there. So don't think this beer supply is redundant ;)

As I said in the NO2O thread, update now works.

But here is a issue. Your Avatar images are doing strange things. Example in Point:

There is a whole lotta pink going on :p

Yep, that's what I said. Going to work on that. Really need to figure out what FD are doing with their inverse matrixing :)

EDIT: Noticed things really aren't the right size for you. Are you using desktop scaling or something?

@drkaii, thank you very much for this great tool!

EDProfiler worked fine for a few days (Windows 10), but then didn't. I fixed it. Followed several steps from this thread, putting my steps here for future reference.

Problem:
EDProfiler would run, appear in win10 taskbar, and the EDProfiler window appeared in the Alt+Tab menu... but I could not summon the window to my desktop to click or manipulate. Could not change any settings!

Possible culprit?
I had installed with desktop scaling to 125% by default. Changing my resolution up and down did nothing. Maybe I'm missing something about how Win10 works.

Steps I took to fix:
1. Used Windows-uninstall to remove EDProfiler
2. Deleted Documents/EDprofiler settings/config directory
3. Deleted Elite settings for Graphics
4. Started Elite, changed a graphics setting to regenerate graphics settings
5. Reduced desktop scaling to 100%
6. Re-installed using IE
7. Works again!

Thanks for that. Just for everyone - try only steps 1 and 6, and even a few times. If that doesn't work, go for steps 2-5 as well :)
