Videos for EDD are on Youtube
See release history for detailed information on EDD history.
Features:
EDD supports add on packs that can be installed individually and which expand ED Discovery. The add on packs themselves are customisable as they are written in a simple programming language.
The main pack is the voice pack, which reads out the journal entries as they happen in your chosen windows text to speech voice. Voice recognition pack is available, as above. Customisable keyboard shortcuts packs are also available if you wish to use tools such as voice attack to control ED. Other packs are available, check your in program add-on menu.
EDD now also supported 3rd party DLL integration for the adventurous programmers out there.
ED Discovery look is fully customisable, you choose the layout, you choose the colours. We include some default themes to get you going, the one shown here is Elite Veranda.
The User Interface featuring multiple information tabs, multiple panels per tab:
Customisable Pop outs, both transparent (so you can place them over ED and have them in game) and non transparent, covering information that you need for exploration:
Trading:
And for engineering/exploring:
11.0 introduces a web server, which allows your tablet to act as a Roccat style grid to control elite:
ED Discovery features a 3d star map of commanders visited systems, courtesy of EDSM. You can pan and zoom, click, see information on your trip and on each star:
ED Discovery integrates with EDSM, EDDN, EDDB, Inara. It can send your journey to EDSM and retrieve information from EDSM from your account. It can send your information (scans etc) to EDDN for upload to the tools which use this. It will update Inara on your current state of play. It will inform EGO about your amazing discoveries.
Over 50+ panels of data is available, giving you data on your ships, their loadouts, your commodities and materials. It has panels to allow you to plan an expedition, plan a exploration star set, plan a route through the galaxy.
It has panels which can be transparent and can be overlayed on top of your Elite Dangerous Borderless window to provide HUD like features.
A screenshot converter allows you to convert those pesky BMPs from ED or steam into a PNG and give them a decent name. Route planners allow you to plan your trip. Your history can be filtered for view, individually on each tab/pop out, showing only the events you want to see or using a advanced filter to remove events on a much more individual basis (npc chatter for instance).
ED Discovery can be downloaded from here. We support both stable builds, and beta builds, each individually installable. We also support portable builds where you can place the data where you want it.
This is an free open source project, you can inspect the code at github. No code is hidden. All is available for you to build or inspect.. We welcome contributions to the code base and user reports of any issues, either at our discord or via Github issues.
