Elite Dangerous Odyssey | Minor Update 08.09.2022

Every time i click on the Upgrade Button in the Launcher the Launcher crashes and doesnt repond anymore. Have tried to wait for 15 minutes, have tried to relog, have tried to uninstall and reinstall the launcher nothing helps....
This happening to me too, did it work in the end?
 
I watched Malics stream earlier and on his stream he made some comments and observations about visuals and sounds.
Both resonated with me, as both color blindness and hearing deficits are real game changing issues and do affect a large number of people.
It does seem appropriate in this thread to mention that ED as far as I know have not given space (pun intended) to those who are visually impaired and also an obvious 'easter void egg' ;) is now invisible except through sound.
Would it possible to have a color blind mode and some form of gain within the game to assist those who have these impairments?

TL;DR I have a special request for the background in VR.

Hi everyone and Sally. Sorry to hijack this forum thread. Delete or redirect me where you think I could have a good chance to be heard. I’m back to ED after having taken a couple weeks pause. I usually do this once a year to play other game, mostly MSFS which also demand a lot of investment like Elite.

A long time ago, in the Elite Dangerous Issue Report - 16/11/2021, I was asking you if it was possible to change the background from grey to black in VR.

Your answer was:

'' Hello! Haw... We were only talking about the "can it be black around the edge" for VR at Dinner with the Devs on Saturday, funny enough I didn't have the notebook there with me but I've kept it for resurfacing in chats! Thank you for your thoughts. You fly safe too o7 ''

So, I was wondering if you could please give us the option to change the color. It would be so much more immersive, since we are often on the surface of a planet with the blackness of it above us. When it’s grey, it really make it feel like we are in a box. The only reason I feel the they have chosen grey is because (maybe) the god’s ray that are introduced in VR when there is high level of contrast. But, honestly, I would rather have a tiny bit of god ray than having a obvious gray boring, immersion breaking grey background.

If you ever see this message, I would be honored. I’m so excited for the new things to come. Thank you for all your dedication Sally, and for all the CM and Devs at Frontier.

Fly safe. 🖤

Big Thanks. The downloads for the client updates has been massively improved, I was able to get it @ Approx 100 mps. Cheers, this used to be an area of large frustration
 
i´ve seen worse bugs being left untouched for months because they would only be fixed with the next scheduled patch.
should have really said something like "fix a problem with the arx shop" or such to make it belieavable.

so, did they sneak in the clipper or cockpit cats?
my cat tobi loves olives, and since salvation olives, i´m sure it is cats.
 
I left school in 1972 long before Computers were in general use so I had no IT or programming training whatsoever and I only ever messed about with the Basic Language starting with the Sinclair ZX80 , hexadecimal and all of that stuff goes right over my head ......
Well I left school in 1971 and understood I also taught myself to build computers, its just a matter of learning
 
Lucky you. For some of us, despite having decent Internet connections, the Elite installer insists on downloading at a crawl. I dread patch days.

I'm curious to experiment this soon (by getting a frontier account with the console transfers).
Till now, both my Steam and Epic installs are getting updated at about 90-95MB/s - yea, that mega bytes, not mega bits,
 
Lucky you. For some of us, despite having decent Internet connections, the Elite installer insists on downloading at a crawl. I dread patch day if I came across as condescending, strange how some players have such slow downloads from the Elite installer

I apologise if I came across as condescending, I find it strange why there is such a large time discrepancy in update speeds

yea, i would expect that direct-from-Frontier updates to be way slower than dedicated services from Steam/Epic which may also use localized fast caches
 
any one better with photo shop than i am, this is changing the chorma on the image, it actually changes when you adjust the colour filter,

Fiddled a little and got a little more definition…

Can’t confirm as this may/may not have already been resolved but the pattern looks familiar…

(Not my image).

If the pattern above is the same mechanism (and hasn’t been resolved) does this identify another code? It's pretty old and probably related to a different event!

If rotated can it be resolved…apologies if this is an obviously old clue already resolved.
