Release Elite Dangerous HUD Mod (EDHM)

Update on problem: It has started working again but I fear on reuse it will not work, as it's erratic nature is consistant, if you get me.

Im still having all the issues I was having except for when it's crashing and stalls.

One small thing: Is everyone else getting a half cresent of another colour in the outer ring of the shield indicator? I never had it in vanilla.

Im out in the black for a few months and this mod is fantastic, I love tinkering with it. Is there a patreon page or the likes, I'd be happy to contribute.
 
I have a favourite theme, if you look in the theme section there are no themes to select. Turing favourites on/offf does nothing.

Pressing the Apply button under theses conditions stalls/crashes the mod. It is the only thing that crashes the mod.

This mod worked for me last night. There have been no changes to my pc. I have reinstalled and updated the mod numerous times. My current version is 2.1.4.1

I'm awaiting verification of new phone on Discord.
There was a game update today. try reinstalling the mod.
Main menu - uninstall edhm mod. then close the game completely, and close the mod app, then start the EDHM app, the mod will install again

Thanks, I believe that's version 2.1.4.1 which I have from my reinstal today. EDIT: I tried it again and I have the latest update.

Alas, the mod failed again. I got in a few changes, but none of this makes sense. Not sure how the same program can fail when it was working a minute ago, and no changes have been made. I checked in my firewall but it isn't even listed.

Hiya, Blue Mystic and his new comrade Evertiro are making frequent updates to the UI at the moment. And because Elite is especially difficult to mod and configure, as new things are added sometimes other stuff breaks. But eventually a balance is found and everything starts working without bugs. Well, that’s what happens on the modding side anyways.

Come over to the discord and chat with the guys if you can’t work out why something isn’t doing what it should (in the UI .. but if you spot a bug in the actual mod / graphics then tell me)

Yeah one of FDev’s updates broke the tri-shield for resolutions below 2560x1440. But try this, go to the main menu (it’s important), set your Upscaling to Normal, and Supersampling to 1.25, apply those settings then go back into the game and check if the tri-shield is working

All sorted and working now. All I needed was the detailed install and user instructions on Discord.

Loving the mod, I'll take the fps hit any day!
 
Hello guys, it the tool can change colors ONLY, right?
Yep, that's what it's supposed to do.

did not understand how to return the original interface of the game ?
You have to remove the whole tool files & folders.
if you read the PDF manual you'll see this :
EDHM-v1.52-Manual.pdf page 8 said:
Extracting the contents of the zip file will create the following 10 files in the "elite-dangerous-64" folder:
  • d3dx.ini (the main configuration file)
  • d3d11.dll
  • d3dcompiler_46.dll
  • nvapi64.dll
  • EDHM-v1.5-Manual.pdf
  • EDHM-v1.5-Catalogue.pdf
  • EDHM-Keybinds-Essential.bat
  • EDHM-Keybinds-Full.bat
  • EDHM-RemoveDemos.bat
  • EDHM-Uninstall.bat
And 2 folders:
  • ShaderFixes (contains all the modified graphics shaders)
  • EDHM-ini (contains extra .ini files for Key Binds and Player Profiles)

And this :
EDHM-v1.52-Manual.pdf page 9 said:
3. Uninstalling EDHM​
  • An uninstall file is included that deletes all mod files (EDHM-Uninstall.bat)
    Please note: Elite must not be running when you uninstall EDHM.
    If Elite is running when you uninstall, some mod files might be left behind.
  • To uninstall EDHM:
    Double click EDHM-Uninstall.bat
    Alternatively, in the Elite Launcher:
    Selecting 'Validate Game Files' in the Options menu will delete all mod files.
  • Please note, when Elite receives an official update, all mod files are automatically deleted.
    If you added custom code to Custom.ini, or added new keybinds or profiles then please
    backup your ini files before updating Elite.

Greetings, could you provide loose files too for v2.1.5.0 as you did on previous version?
 
Hello I love using EDMI_UI, and I saw that there is an option to have different themes on ships at the same time but I don't know how to make it work can someone help me because I would love to have different themes on my ships for example a theme on my Type 9 and another on my Diamondback Explorer.

o7 CMDR,
I suggest you using English for quicker help, even google translate if needed :)
(Sugiro que você use o inglês para obter ajuda mais rápida, até mesmo o google translate, se necessário) <= google translated it (sorry for mistakes)
No idea on your request though, not using since EDO as I'm barely at 25fps on foot...

To completely uninstall EDHM:

Always exit Elite before uninstalling, otherwise files will get left behind. If that happens, use Method 3 below.

==========================================
Method 1:
If you uninstall EDHM UI via the Windows Control Panel / Programs & Features / right-click on the file / select uninstall, then it should also uninstall the EDHM mod

If for some reason that didn't work, try Method 2

==========================================
Method 2:
Go into the "elite-dangerous-odyssey-64" folder (or the "elite-dangerous-64" folder for Horizons) and double click the file "EDHM-Uninstall.bat". All done, now it's gone in 2 seconds

Use Method 3 if there are still some files left behind (for example, if you forgot to Exit Elite before uninstalling)

==========================================
Method 3:
Load the Elite Launcher, select Odyssey or Horizons (whichever version you want to erase all EDHM files), then in the Options menu, select "Validate Game Files". That will remove anything that isn't made by FDev

That's it, you've successfully nuked EDHM :)

Hiya, the UI is made by a separate developer (Blue Mystic) who doesn't visit these forums. For support with the UI, please join the EDHM Discord and post in the channel #ui-app

There is also a general support channel for non-English speakers, but Google translate does a pretty good job

Thank you

Hi, do you mean for the UI app? That's made by a separate developer (Blue Mystic)

The UI app includes the mod files

The mod files (without the UI app) are available on my Github

But I've just released v10 of EDHM for Odyssey about an hour ago, so it won't be on my Github until Blue Mystic incorporates it into the UI app (probably 1 or 2 days from now)

Hello, I wrote in English, I don't know why it's in Portuguese, what I said was:

But I already spoke with BlueMystic and everything is fine, thanks. :)
 
::EDHM ODYSSEY v10.1::

Hi CMDRs, this update is all about the text around the landing & SRV reticle

You can download the non-UI version of the update from the EDHM Discord, or my GitHub (but the 10.1 update will be installed automatically if you use the UI)

Changelog

Most changes are Landing Reticle text elements

- Latitude / Longitude Coordinates, & Gravity Text Colour
Note (mainly for CMDRs who manage the mod without the UI): Key y97 previously controlled Brightness of this text block, but had to be changed (so a colour slot could be allocated to this text block)
Key w185 now controls the brightness of this text block, along with colour keys RGB(x185,y185,z185)
Key y97 now controls Text Shadow/ Glow Boost, see below
As a result, you may need to adjust the brightness of this text block to your preferences.
I don't like to swap keys as it breaks an element in profiles, but had to be done in this case

- Text Along the Altitude Bar
- Added a few colour options (not fully custom - either match the main text, or match the Lat/Long text colour)

- Text Background: Shadows / Glow
Is applied to:
Text in reticle boxes
Text on the altitude bar
Lat / Long & Gravity text

- Text Background Mode
Black (shadow) or Text colour glow (default Elite)

- Text Background Shadow / Glow Boost

key y97 has changed to Shadow/Glow Boost, was previously Lat/Long text brightness. Basically, you can make your text shadows darker.

- CHUD / AHUD Red Text
Alpha boost to improve readability

- Planetary Landing Text (bright cyan) "Ship Landed" paragraph
Increased the size of the text block mod to include non-English languages

Note: Elite uses two fonts around the HUD. One font has shadows (a separate background glow), but unfortunately the other doesn't. So I can't add shadows to text around the AHUD/CHUD, I wish I could but that's the way the cookie crumbles

Note: If you use the 3rd Party 'CockpitLights mod', and receive a red 'duplicate hash' warning - firstly, don't worry, it's nothing terrible (it just means the cockpit lights shader is referenced in both CockpitLights.ini and d3dx.ini). Second, please uninstall your current CockpitLights mod, and install the new version 3.1 from the EDHM Discord, or from my GitHub

Please report any mod bugs here, however I cannot provide support for the UI (as it is developed by another CMDR). If you need help with the UI please contact Blue Mystic on the EDHM Discord, thank you

I hope you enjoy the new update! o7
