Time to highlight another bunch of awesome videos that have been released over the last month or so.

First this fantastic bit of atmospheric storytelling from Juseppe’s World which evokes Ridley Scott's Alien to put a new spin on an existing piece of in-game lore.

And then two very recent videos which remind us of the fantastic community surrounding Elite and also how, as well as being fun, the game and its community can provide a very real "light in dark places when all other lights go out".

Brace yourselves ... I've only gone and done an actual update to my list. (I know right!)

So Jon from the Pixel Bandits got in touch and pointed out that a) the Pixel Bandits podcast is (currently) no more, b) they are however alive and well on twitch and c) they have a rather fabulous beginners guide (my words not his). So I've updated the OP accordingly.

In general on this thread ... although I am very much still around and enjoying Elite: Dangerous I obviously rather neglected my list post-Odyssey and certainly haven't been keeping up with all the wonderful new tools, guides, podcasts, etc that have been released in the last few years.

I wasn't entirely convinced that my thread was still that useful a resource (it's an awfully long and rather outdated list these days) BUT if there are any really glaring omissions or corrections to be made then do please let me know and I'll try my best to ensure that, if not definitive, this thread is at least still somewhat useful and vaguely accurate.

Vaguely thinking I might kick this thread back into life a bit ... at least the part where I pick out things that have caught my eye recently.

Starting with the ever brilliant Galnet News Digest review of the year (parts 1-3).

Also wanted to highlight this innocent little tweet from Frontier's Tom Kewell which understandably got me quite excited.

Nice one, thanks for these! In addition to Tom's, there's also this tweet from MoM (unrelated to racing, probably :D )

Many people might remember Cmdr Arithon's wonderful collection of ship blueprints. Sadly he's subsequently left and taken the blueprints with him. Luckily @Velko Vidich has been producing new ones and has just released a whole set of incredibly detailed Krait Phantom blueprints for our enjoyment.

o7 Commanders I didn`t get the chanse to upload my Krait Panton blueprints till now, but here They are. There are two pages missing the cover page and general display. You can fiend hi resolution on my Reddit profile and PDF on my Patreon account.

Thankfully someone saved the blueprints before Arithon's blog was taken down.

Couple more awesome video shoutouts.

First we have the definitive anti-Xeno tutorial from the AXI. It's half an hour long but is really well worth a watch and contains pretty much anything the budding caustic cauliflower combatant could possibly want to know.

And then there's the latest offering from Juseppe's World which is a really beautifully crafted 7 minute cinematic.

There's also some amazing stuff coming from the Buur Pit who hosted a mass instance canyon cruise this weekend (over 40 ships in a single instance) but I'll wait on the final edit for that.
