Elite Dangerous Odyssey | Minor Update 08.09.2022

I think removing the visual tracking of the anomaly was wrong I used to enjoy logging in everyday to visualyly track it, A big step back for fdev in my book

What do you mean by "removing the visual tracking?


BTW Epic was reporting a 6,95GB download on my PC

I'm totally computer illiterate and new to trying to decode things. Probably a stupid question but what does PNG mean. I'll scuttle off now and go back to my own knuckle dragging kind.

.png is Microsoft Windows stupid way of declaring that this specific bunch of data should be read as an image file in the "png" format. Probably MS's idea of a three-letter-abbreviation for the word "PaiNtinG".

I would not expect one for an Odyssey update (it's in the title.)

Just because we cannot see it, doesn't mean it isn't there. Or at least one can hope.

Thank you, said I was computer illiterate. If you don't ask you don't learn

Greetings Commanders///

Let me complain a little: the message is barely readable if forum theme is set to "Frontier Development" in account preferences.
Please consider that users can use differently colored themes.
Thank you!

PNG stands for Portable Network Graphics and has nothing to do with Microsoft.

actually png stands for portable network graphic and ìt provides lossless compression while supporting transparency - as opposed to jpg which does compress better but at the cost of losing information.

Expect it to vary, peoples. You're all attacking a limited source pipe. One bottle of ketchup gonna take a lot of patience if y'all want it at once!

And we wait for it with wild anti. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .pation.

Regarding the star of Thargslehem, people say it is invisible. Did anyone consider that it's just the range at which it is visible has changed?

Pretty much confirmed by Sally on twitter.

Of course, that's literally what the update notes said:

• Adjustment to lens flares so that they are now appearing on all quality settings and are visible at the correct ranges.

Indicating that it was not intended to be seen from far away before. That said, it is a bit surprising that it is only intended to be visible from virtually point blank.

To all the non Brits who are wondering, "Numberwang" is a reference to a UK show called "That Mitchell and Webb Look". According to Google, in this show, there's a fictional television series (inception time !) in which the two contestants (Simon and Julie) call out seemingly random numbers which are occasionally told to be "Numberwang". The rules of the game are left completely unexplained to the viewer, and appear to follow no logic whatsoever.

Man, I love googling UK oddities while waiting for the servers to restart.

That aged badly
