Hi guys. I've found Jacques Station (the one that moves around) and I've bought its rare goods. I think its called Jaques Distilled Wine or something similar. However, whenever I go to check my cargo after leaving the system the Wine disappears and my cargo shows up as empty. Has this happened to anyone else?

OK for me. I bought 1T of Jaques Quinentian Still this morning and it's still in my hold now (I'm in another system).

Perhaps you drank it and then blacked out?
 
Exactly the same thing has happened to me since 1.1 several times. I was flying a cobra with no cargo towards Yembo to try the community goal thing but each time I lost my jump target after being interdicted (which seems to be happening a lot more frequently now). Target system was more than 20Ly so wasn't showing up on left hand menu at all. I had to manually set the entire route again each time in the galaxy map. I got bored with this in the end and gave up on going to Yembo. I was thinking of ticketing this if it hasn't been fixed by next update.
Yes, this is the problem for me since version 1.1 too. My long jump targets frequently disappear from navigation menu if I was interdicted or even switch target to space objects for scanning. Route stays the same in the galaxy map.
 
Anyone having trouble selling rares? I have had Tarach spice in my hold for days now and can't sell it anywhere in any Black Market. Currently in Orrere and it is a normal sale there but it just won't go through! Also had a problem with another rare not being able to sell in a black market but that sold normally in Orrere last night. So is Black Market bugged?

AFAIK rares have never been a black market item - you just sell them on the regular commodities market.

There are a couple of items that are not legal in some systems and have to be sold in the Black Market but generally as you say they are in the normal commodities market. Never get any fines though if rares not legal in a system. have probably made 30+ million from trading rares so far. Started in a Cobra (stored & fully 'A'd) and now in an Asp and mostly B's & C's until I complete my next 'round'.
 
Last night during a trade grind I was in a station and hit the REFUEL pad on station services. The REFUEL button highlighted, then froze the screen. No inputs worked after that and I had to ESC out of the game back to main menu and reload to carry on. Refuel worked fine the second time.

Only happened once and I missed it on FRAPS. No ticket raised for one instance, but FYI to any other users who may see this.

At least you were able to open the station services window.

I can't even do that. (Or go to supercruise, or jump to another system, or...)
 
Exploring Bug.
...
I scanned system HIP 64522...................as it was my first time "out there", I only did one system "properly" then ran home...and made sure I scanned every "unexplored" contact....yes, even the asteroid belts....
...
4 Moons of HIP 64522 B 5 did not register, nor did the planet HIP 64522 B 6......all other contacts have the Sim Maker tag........
....

Still got a buzz out of finding a system though, will be going further out again, to escape the NPC hell........:cool:
 
Repairs bug lost 1.2 million
OK i went to the center of the galaxy and came back - my ASP had damaged hull and the integrity was at 4% - i docked at SOL and repaired my ship ... for a total of 1.2 million or more only the ship integrity was 850.000 thousand as I remember.

So i had 2 million before the trip then i came back and repaired my ship for 1.2+ at least. Then i starter selling my data but at a certain point the game crashed to desktop - i was around 2.9million by that time !
I logged in again to find my data gone and the ship unrepaired and 2.9million in my bank balance! What on earth ? Ten days of exploration go to the bin because of a bug.
The way i understand it the FD server saves money transactions and exploration data but not repair data at the same time ...
I filed a ticket . Beware don't explore for the time being ... !!! :mad:

Insight into stutter issue:

Can anyone who has encountered serious stuttering and is using a DVI monitor test my "solution".

https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showth...=1#post1787834

My 30" Dell is connected over a DVI connection, the other monitor over a VGA connection (analog).
The game stutters horribly since 1.06 on the dell, while on the VGA monitor does not cause stutter at all.
 
Irrelevant - vga monitors are ultra old school analogue signal outputs. I assume that if you play the game at 320x 240 as in the good old days the stuttering problem will be over. But the problem is with some sort on the fly texture generation as far as i am concerned, planet textures are generated on the fly and not soon enough apparently.

FIX INFLUENCE

Im not sure if this is a bug or not but influence doesnt seem to be working for many people including me. The influence in the systems faction im working for isnt changing the number it is just staying at the same percent I hope that someone can take this into account and fix the influence bug.

This is a really serious bug ... You need to patch it. Repairs should be logged at the same time as the transaction happens.
I crashed three times at ED one in the middle of the galaxy plotting a route and then i hyper jumped and crashed to desktop ( ED had a hard time plotting the route and when i start jumping it crashed , I was after eagle nebula but don't remember anything else. ...) after that i crashed selling exploration data which cost me 1.2 million which i expect to be refunded.
The first time that it crashed was while i was docked back in January but hasn't occurred again. Crashing 3 times only is considered a good thing but this last time it corrupted my data money and exploration data was saved correctly while repair wasn't.

.....erm.......after the small update yesterday I thought I would check to see if "my system" had changed.........and.....well........even more targets that I scanned are now showing up as not scanned.....so since yesterday, HIP 64522 B, all the B Belts, HIP 64522 B 1, HIP 64522 B 1, HIP 64522 B 1 A, HIP 64522 B 3, HIP 64522 B 4, can be added to the list........yesterday they showed as First Discovered by Sim Maker.......
...

I geuss I won't be rushing out exploring........

Next time try to be a little constructive when other players have issues that you do not suffer from. You offer nothing but arrogant mockery. Whats the point? The game works on VGA which scales to 1980x1080, comparing that to CGA is ridiculous.

You are lucky then, I got hit with a huge fine last night for carrying rare whiskey...
