Release Trade Computer Extension Mk.II

hello

I have installed TCE without problem, but when I start it all the icons do not appear.
Only the central and visible icon and the 3 of the bottom of the window.
My elitesOCR is in versions 8.0.2
The TCE launcher does not indicate anything special.

thank you in advance

I'm also having this problem - don't have EliteOCR installed, but do have EDMC v2.32

In the TCE.config file edit ClassicUI="false" to ClassicUI="True"

this way you you atleast have text buttons instead of "no icons"

Thanks for this :)
 
Maybe can you post a screenshot, how it looks? Is it like this: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/223056-RELEASE-Trade-Computer-Extension-Mk-II?p=5463621&viewfull=1#post5463621
What language you have set for TCE?

Language is set to English

Login Error ?

Hi,
I'm new to this program, thanks for sharing, it looks like a ripper, and is the main reason I joined the forum. I've installed it twice now, and the associated bits n bobs, but upon startup I get "Login Error" down the bottom in the starting black area, and can't do anything further.
It also just amps up the cpu cycles and needs to be closed from task manager .. clearly I've missed something blatantly critical, but have no idea what that is :)
I've read through most of this thread and now I'm stumped. Any Ideas what I've done wrong ? win 10 64. I've run as admin, installed in D drive, ..

As I'm typing this I realise I can't seem to get to the settings screen so maybe I mucked that up ? Which file stores the initial setup info ? perhaps I can edit that or delete to regenerate, as it hasn't asked me for input settings since the initial install... or did I dream that that even happened :)

Cheers,
al.
 
I can confirm, I have found an issue, when scanning a star, so the Camera panel appears, if Auto Camera option is active ofc, but no picture was taken and therefore the Camera panel stood open until scanning a planet.
In this case, the picture, that was taken from a planet, is replacing the star picture.

A fix will be released with the next update. Until then, please hide the Camera panel or take a shot, before scanning a new stellar object.
Thanks for reporting.

Awesome! Thanks!
 
HI,
On the first page under FAQ there is a section on Verbose Logging which may be what you are looking for.
Cheers,
al.

Hi yes thank you.
It seems it was the Local version of the appconfig that had verboselogin at 0.
I altered that and all seems good now.
Its going through the 900 logs atm.

Once again, Thank you.

Hi @Eventure,
Firstly, thanks for sharing a great tool ! This may pop up as a double post as my first post went off to moderation as my very first post, but doesn't appear to have come back.
Anyway, I've got an issue with starting up the program and it saying login error in the status area at the bottom.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled a couple of times, and can't seem to get past that point. Nothing else in the starting screen then continues to function, so I can't even get in to change any parameters etc ? and the cpu cycles up to pretty full so I need to task manager to quit the program. I'm obviously not doing something right, but I'm stumped and don't know what it is. I've tried on C: and on D: installs, I've not seen the setup page though which I think I saw the very first time I installed ? Is there an ini file somewhere I can delete to get it to ask to reconfigure or something like that ? Win10 everything else is bog standard.
I'll keep mucking about, but do you have any ideas ?
Cheers,
al.
 
Please download the V1.5.5 update and copy the content into your TCE folder to fix the issue.
@To be sure, what is shown at your TCE.config file under 'UI_Settings' Button1 - 10?

Same problem and I have the latest version installed.
Under UI settings it looks like:

Button1=""

Etc, etc, all the way to 10.
Switching to the temp fix mentioned above. Thanks diOxin!

The LOGIN ERROR message comes from the EDMC app, you may have installed, but not properly setup.
Please read this guide here from punkerich, that shows, what you have to do to use EDMC with TCE.

That's the issue, TCE will have a fix for it with the next update tomorrow, but until then, you can fix it yourself by removing all 'Button' (1-10) entries from the TCE.config, so TCE can rewrite the entries on the next start of the launcher.

Downloaded update [again] and copied across - Still no icons
UI_Settings Buttons all set to ""

Tried removing all the Button entries from TCE.config, on launching it rewrote them all back in as ""

Also not only do the icons not appear the buttons do not work either

Thanks, thought it should work. Anyway, please stick to the classic UI (set it to True) until the fix arrives.
 
So I'm not sure what happened or whats going on. I recently went on a short exploration trip and everything seemed fine while out.

In that time there was about 2 or 3 updates to TCE and now when I got back to the bubble and go to any station Auto connect does not work, and many times the connect button will not update the base.

What happens is this. With Auto Connect enabled I land at the base and I see the 10 second or whatever wait period before connection as normal and then it doesn't even try to connect at all. The button just stays saying connect so no attempt is made.

When I go to some bases I haven't been to in a while It says in the upper right corner of the current location box "update required" and many times/most times even after I hit Connect it still says that instead of showing the last date visited there. When hitting the connect button it goes through its things, connects/success/updating, or whatever it all says, I get the 1 min cool down yet it appears not to update the station. Sometimes logging out to menu and back in will help, but usually it will never update any station saying update required.

I have even reinstalled a new version on the latest 1.5.5 full and transferred over my database and still neither scenario works at all.

I the base doesn't say update required in the current location box then as far as I can tell the connect button will update it as the date changes (that is the only way I can tell, if the date is the same day/before a new day in game then I cant really tell how often connect works/doesn't work)

New stations seem to work fine as well, I can add them and connect and it seems to work.

So I'm kind of at a loss here and have no idea what happened or what is going on. I liked having it just auto connect whenever I went to a station to be sure its all as up to date as possible. I am also not getting any error messages of any kind either so idk lol.

Hopefully this message doesn't take almost a week to post like my others.

As always thanks for all the work you do on the TCE. [up]

If you have loaded any rare commodity, TCE stops auto-connect, because of a bug at the game.

Code:
[U][I]Changelog[1.5.4.1]:
[/I][/U]- Added suppression of auto-connect, if a rare commodity is in cargo.

Thanks for the response.

I have no cargo, certainly no rares but possibly at times I have some mission rewards junk I have forgotten about. But still even with no cargo its not working.

Though I did recently unlock some engineers and had to get rares for that, is it possible something got bugged and it has stayed that way?

I have tried disabling auto connect and exiting everything then re-launching and renabling the feature. And even went so far as to completely reinstall TCE.

Also what about the stations that say require update in current location window and wont apparently update even after hitting connect button myself?
 
I had a problem adding a planetary port today. Video /journal file sent. It was around 2300 game time / 7pm local.

I restarted TCE while still docked at the port, and everything worked fine. It detected where I was and added all the data like it normally does.
