Release ED-Intelligent Boardcomputer Extension

I've found the problem. In the next version this will be fixed :)

Your tool is not broken, DUKE one of the best around, but the 'FIX' if allowing me too do this below would be great , thus having your tool ED-IBE for information sorting and ED Toolbox for detail information, maybe even importing , between them :) and the best part is I can access the information via my tablet , so stay in game only have too Alt TAB , when accessing ED-IBE for "Best Trades"

With these three tools ED-IBE, ED TOOLBOX and EDDI: A(nother) Voice Attack Plugin, I have all I need to stay in game & get information

With VR , becoming more mainstream for ED, having Voice Attack access these tools is the next step, :)



From Walter Harriman...ED TOOLBOX

If you want to use the EDTB MySQL server, you'll need to do a couple of things from ED-IBE (ask the developer how to do them):

  • Export the database of ED-IBE
  • Configure ED-IBE MySQL server to use EDTB's username and password (username is root, password is in the data/server_config.inc.php file)


And on EDTB:



  • Import the ED-IBE database to the EDTB MySQL server:
    • Gear icon->Database Management
    • Log-in using the username and password from earlier
    • Choose Import from the left panel and choose the file you exported from ED-IBE


Thanks Duke

Hi sutex, check out the new version on github - on the settings tab there's now a port-field :)


concerning "EDToolbox":
I don't want to invest the work for integrating ED-IBE into the Toolbox-database.
It's simply too less advantage. If there's anyone who want to do this by hand on
his own server (not only ED Toolbox, every mySQL-Server should work )...
I can give tips - but to integrate a working und sure mechanism it's not worth.

'I can give tips'..............how too do the below


  • Export the database of ED-IBE
  • Configure ED-IBE MySQL server to use EDTB's username and password (username is root, password is in the data/server_config.inc.php file)

Edit , when using the ED-IBE v 5 , and changing the server ports , was then able to run ED Toolbox.

I did change the setting by hand , but as posted it had no affect

As both tools are up and running now, still pondering what the above suggested fix will do , but is seems to be not need now.

Excellent thanks Duke

rejoiced to hear :)

I recommend to let IBE run with it's own server. In general it should work
, but in future releases of IBE may come some changes that not working properly
on other servers
(e. g. because they have an older version of MySQL - as you may have seen the v5 has got the latest
v5.6 binaries of MySQL (v5.6.29) whereas ED Toolbox is still running on 5.6.6 or so)
...then the sh..'ll hit the fan. [where is it]
 
No worries , its working for now ..all good

Ok next thought :O

The market connector ...get market information ect , those buttons , can they be macro-ed to be able to use Voice attack ( keyboard ) too call them, to say "get market info' and IBE , fills it in
OR
EDDI , the voice attack plugin uses API to call the information , I believe it can be used to call system market data too.

It would be possible for them to bundle EDDI and/or set up their own VoiceAttack script that used EDDI variables, it's really up to them as how best to approach this however.

The dream, or mine at least, is an automatic information gathering system using VA. API, and maybe later be able too control other IBE functions ....with VA while running on my Tablet via the web server [big grin]


I'm trying to integrate Trade Dangerous with voice attack. I've got it working to some extent using EDDI but some additional information would be useful. Having the current available capacity instead of needing to calculate the total capacity minus the used capacity. Having the full and empty max jump distances for the current ship. Also differentiating between the current and last station name and having a spoken version of this. Trade dangerous will need to be modified to produce a little more speech friendly output though.

c:\tradedangerous\trade.py run --from "{TXT
confused.png
ystem name}/{TXT:Last station name}" --credits {DEC:Credits} --capacity {INT
confused.png
hip cargo capacity} --ly-per 8.56 --jumps 2 --hops 2

After the last ED update re run IBE , told verbose needs to be reset , but the Box is hidden behind the splash screen
splash screen is unmovable , so any box that's needs an input that pops up is hidden , on my pc win 10 , if I alt tab I see the input box, but it won't come 'to the front' only the splash screen stays on top

Re start a few times , Verbose box finally in front of the splash screen, then after clicking yes IBE crash , dump file made

*IBE, maybe thinks my logs or verbose is the (x86)version not 64bit horizon which I have and running

Edit IBE running, after a few starts, but minimize the splash screen, would be handy.

Hi Duke,

I'm trying to get ED-IBE up and running as I loved your version of regulated noise. it seems to install ok, the cmd window comes up and I think it creates the DB ok, but unfortunately it then won't run.
I've tried versions 0.1.5 and 0.1.4, and in different install locations, with the same result each time.

I've sent a link with the full dump file on Google Drive, but looking in the logs I wonder whether the problem is the path:

2016/03/29 18:15:19: ERROR: Unhandled Exception
2016/03/29 18:15:19: ERROR: System.Exception: Error in main-init-routine ---> System.Exception: could't verify productpath and/or gamepath ---> System.Exception: Error while creating the object ---> System.Exception: Error while loading ED-Appconfig from file <C:\Users\MyNameHere\AppData\Local\Frontier\_Developments\Products\elite-dangerous-64\AppConfig.xml> ---> System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\MyNameHere\AppData\Local\Frontier\_Developments\Products\elite-dangerous-64\AppConfig.xml'.

to my non-expert eye, it looks like there's an unwanted \ in the Frontier_Development folder name. But then, if that was the problem, wouldn't it fail for everyone? :S

You're doing great work, keep it up!

Hi, this is interesting. In my path is no "_" ("\_" is a escaped "_")

C:\Users\Duke\AppData\Local\Frontier Developments\...

but I'm also a little bit surprised: The path in the message ist your datapath.
Normally your installation (this is what ed-ibe wants in this moment)
should be somewhere else, e.g.
C:\Program Files\....
or
D:\Games\...

Are you sure you have installed the Elite Dangerous binaries in "C:\Users\MyNameHere\AppData\Local\Frontier_Developments\..." ?


Edit: I hope this helps - if not : I have to check this(seems to be an error in ED-IBE with paths and '_'),
but unfortunately I will be a few days on vacation.

Hi Duke - thanks for the ultra fast response! I've got paid support on software at work where I dream of a response that quick :p

That's where my ED exe is. I've also got the a "Frontier Developments" folder in the same Local folder, but then the "Frontier_Developments" has the exe.

I don't think I'm the only one with ED exe's there though. From memory, it was other posts on the internet that helped me find it originally (I'd have never looked in there for it, only other program I've ever known to install in the data folder was chrome).

Hang on..... (quick google) ....yep, there's people in this thread talking about the app data folder there as well: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/newreply.php?do=postreply&t=137732
 
Ok, so I have to check this - but as I said - it will take a time.
I will fix it in the coming v0.2.0.
In this version also the EDDN will work again.

PS: your link is not working. can you edit it ?

If you have a sql-frontend *) you can try following:

- start the database manually with the ".\ED-IBE\Database\script\start_server.cmd" script
(I hope this will work on your pc - I know some path constellations are problematic !!)

- connect to the database with the frontend and go to
the table "tbInitValue" . The path you're looking for can be found
if you do following select:

Code:
select * from tbInitValue where InitGroup = 'Settings' and (InitKey = 'ProductsPath' or InitKey = 'GamePath');

Remove the backslash from the path and save it.
It's possible working then.


*) I suggest the old mysqlcc 0.9.4 : https://sourceforge.net/projects/my...2/0.9.4-beta/mysqlcc-0.9.4-win32.zip/download
- it's very simple.

or the current MySQL-Workbench from the MySQL-Homepage (more complicated but more powerful too)

To connect to the database use following settings:
server : localhost
port: 3306
User: RN_User
Pass: Elite

.... or be patient ;)

Sorry about that, my previous link doesn't work for me now either.

Anyway, I found a much better link than the previous one : https://support.frontier.co.uk/kb/faq.php?id=108

FD Support said:
The Frontier Launcher default installation location will put files in the following locations:
  • NetLog -> C:\Program Files (x86)\Frontier\Products\elite-dangerous-64\logs\
  • AppConfig.xml -> C:\Program Files (x86)\Frontier\Products\elite-dangerous-64\
  • Game folder -> C:\Program Files (x86)\Frontier\Products\
  • TelemetryCache.log -> C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\
  • Client.log -> C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Frontier_Developments\logs\
  • Update.log -> C:\Program Files (x86)\Frontier\Products\elite-dangerous-64\
Alternatively depending on your local permissions, you may find these files here:

  • NetLog -> C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Frontier Developments\Products\elite-dangerous-64\logs\
  • AppConfig.xml -> C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Frontier_Developments\Products\elite-dangerous-64\
  • Game folder -> C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Frontier_Developments\
  • Client.log -> C:\Program Files (x86)\Frontier\EDLaunch\logs\
  • Update.log -> C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Frontier_Developments\Products\elite-dangerous-64\

Hope that helps, and again, thanks for all the hard work!

Edit: I should mention that the linked page gives different locations for steam installs though I suspect you're aware of those.

Sorry but what i written was just the experience i had.

btw Slopeys tool is doing it the right way for me except for the function to delete wrong entries.

IAM NO F...... TROLL!

maybe its just you give not enough description how to use it. but i was not able to find best trades around a specific system. was iam doing something wrong? or is it just not working the way i thought?

sorry, but after your comment I had to suppose, you are a troll :
Absolutley useless tool ever!
It doesnt allow me to search for best trades around the system iam currently in.
It doenst show me profit.
It doenst show me anything useful waste of my time.
This tool do just nothing else as download a whole bunch of market data and thats it.

You're spitting on this tool without taking in account that maybe the problem is sitting in front of your keyboard. [sour]


So, as you are asking now I will answer and help by your problem ! [yesnod]

First of all: the tool is working !!!

But the difference to many other tools is
it is primary designed to collect your own data without any enforcement
to share the data with others - whereby you can if you want !

When you start freshly you have no data ! Really "no"
(all the data which is imported by the fisrt start is only master data like systems, stations, coordinates, names etc )

Collect data with the integrated EDMC interface (OCR is not working again yet)
(define the path to the edmc exe in the settings).

For every station where you collect the data you will expand your
trading options. In minimum you need two, eh :cool:

To get quick a huge database you have diffrent options:
- activate the eddn interface
- get market data in csv-format and import it
- import your existing RegulatedNoise data, if you have worked with it
- fly to stations ... fly, flyyyy

Question : Have you read the starter-tipps "StarterTips_....txt"
There are a few good tipps and background infos.
- in special "9. consideration of the systems / stations !!!!!!!"

For the people who like to reduce the data strictly by the
self-visited systems (even only self-visited stations)
there is a datafilter active by default (this is also one of the
base ideas of this tool - in cause of this it is active by default - yet)

This means even if you get tons of data frome anywhere
you will not see them - until you have visit the systems
OR you deactivate the datafilter in the settings.

I hope this will explain a few things - if you still have problems feel free to ask...
.... but, please , don' t say again ... *read your comment above*

Duke
