Alec's best of the forum (and elsewhere) thread

Thread Closed: Not open for further replies.
Attention all 26yr old, male, Open mode playing, CQC hating, PC owning, explorer types (and the rest of you) - the mega-survey results are trending now!
 
Added new "Other 3rd party sites" link for the "hozbase" Elite Dangerous Utilities site (which lists all sorts of interesting things that are near to your current location).
 
Just to let you know that jgm has handed over maintenance of the Keyboard and HOTAS reference card generator to me and it is now hosted at https://edrefcard.info. jgm will be setting his site to redirect shortly. It can now list the saved configs https://edrefcard.info/list and I have populated it with the game's default settings for various controllers plus a couple of my own favourites.
Thanks for letting me know. I've updated the OP with the new link (but also kept the original forum link in case anyone wants to ask questions or report issues). Nice work!
 
Thanks. Yes, the original forum link is still the designated place for questions and issues.

Oh and it does all kinds of controllers, not just HOTAS, hence the renaming to EDRefCard.

Hi Alec,

I've probably already posted in this thread on how great it is and here I am again.

Your original post is pretty much my goto after I quickly scan the top 10 or so posts in the Dangerous and Engineering threads.

Because your post is so big and comprehensive, and because you're updating it almost every single day, it'd be great to have a date of last update for each section (not just the trending one). I know that's probably a little more extra work for you, but it would make finding new, interesting content so much easier for your regular viewers.

Keep up the great work!

Cheers

p.s. OR, {face-palm} you can ignore me and I'll read the last posts in this thread each time I visit.

Thanks and yeah ... I always post a new comment whenever I add something new to the OP so the whole thread reads a bit like a changelog hopefully.
 
No mention of the free Elite-a-likes/remakes Alec? :(
This lot kept the Elite embers glowing in the dark days. ;)
Alite. A bit like Oolite but on Android.
Oolite <<this needs to be unlocked pretty please you mods as I need to update the links.

Trending: the 2.4 changelog is out!

Also - the forum "New Posts" list is practically unreadable thanks to all the 2.4 beta bug reports being included so I'm currently finding it nearly impossible to spot anything new apart from bug reports. This combined with the fact that I'm heading up to the Edinburgh Fringe for a weekend of debauchery means I probably won't be getting back up to speed on what's been happening on the forum until next week now.

Have a good weekend y'all.

Click the link to the forum in question, click Forum Tools dropdown, click Ignore this Forum.

Assuming you don't want to follow 2.4 beta stuff.

Tyrany, Tyrany - they've got it in-famy (errr, nope, that doesn't work). Lave Radio cause a BGS ruckus.

Also, who would win in a fight between Dave Braben and Gabe Newell.

Yeah, I know, sorry, it's a slow news week.
 
Cleaned up some links in the "Stuff for new players" section and added a link to the "What have you achieved in the last 24 hours?" thread.
