Hi CMDR,

We were thinking about a configurable space dust mod a while ago, but couldn't get a consensus on whether increasing the dust size/opacity constituted an unfair advantage over other players without the mod. And I don't want to put anything in EDHM that risks its longevity or causes any controversy, even if it's really minor like that

I can certainly get you the new hash address of the dust, are you playing in Horizons or Odyssey now?

Odyssey, exclusively.

However, I'd almost certainly need some advice in how to tweak the density of the dust.

For what it's worth, I have little interest in PvP - it's extremely unusual for it to happen organically where I operate, and FD didn't seem to mind people tweaking the shader in Dustbuster.

Good afternoon, tell me, installed edhm, chose a theme, pressed aplly, started the game, press F11 and nothing happens. The game was restarted and nothing. I checked the program updates, the latest version is worth. Help.

Hiya, if you installed EDHM via the UI it's best to join the EDHM Discord so you can chat with Blue Mystic (the UI Dev). I can't run the UI as I don't have a standard installation of the mod, so I'm not the best person to provide advice about how to navigate the UI.

However, you might want to check you have pointed the UI to the correct game folders:

Code: 
Default Game Locations:
STEAM:
--------------------------------------------------
Horizons:  %PROGRAMFILES%\Steam\steamapps\common\Elite Dangerous\Products\elite-dangerous-64\
Odyssey:  %PROGRAMFILES%\Steam\steamapps\common\Elite Dangerous\Products\elite-dangerous-odyssey-64\   
Odyssey:  %PROGRAMFILES%\Steam\steamapps\common\Elite Dangerous\Products\FORC-FDEV-DO-1000\

EPIC GAMES:
--------------------------------------------------
Horizons: %PROGRAMFILES%\Epic Games\EliteDangerous\Products\elitedangerous-64\
Odyssey:  %PROGRAMFILES%\Epic Games\EliteDangerous\Products\elite-dangerous-odyssey-64\

FRONTIER:
--------------------------------------------------
Horizons: %PROGRAMFILES%\Frontier\Products\elite-dangerous-64\
Odyssey:  %PROGRAMFILES%\Frontier\Products\elite-dangerous-odyssey-64\

Some people only install the Horizons version and find it's not working in Odyssey, or vice versa. Also make sure the UI is fully updated, and there is an option to update within the app (but I'm not sure where it is)

For any other questions about the UI, please join the EDHM discord and post in the #ui-app channel, thanks

Hi CMDRs,

Big EDHM update this week!

Introducing the Suit HUD by CMDR Mystler

EDHM for Odyssey v8.3 brings the Suit (Foot) HUD mod by the very talented CMDR Mystler!

As promised, we delayed modding the Suit HUD by 6 months out of respect for the Devs who worked on the Odyssey HUD, who did a great job btw.

But now we can customise the cyan HUD to match your ship HUD, or design something completely different.

I recommend installing the new update via EDHM UI (you can update from within the UI, just make sure Elite isn't running), and if you run into any issues (we've noticed some anti-virus apps block the updates), then you can install the UI update manually.


Night Vision mod by CMDR Jessidhia

CMDR Jessidhia is another very talented modder, and brings to you the long-awaited Night Vision mod!

Jessidhia has added some great options that don't just look great, but are also very useful for CMDRs with colour blindness. For example, you can customise the standard night vision, the pulse from the Pulse Wave Analyser, and the colour of the glow from core asteroids.

Cockpit Lights mod

My favourite ship is the Krait Phantom, but one of my pet peeves are the bright lights at the front that shine in your face (see pic above)

The Cockpit Lights mod allows you to turn them off, and provides lighting options for a bunch of other ships, including the Krait Mk II, AspX and Scout, all Imperial ships, the Vette and the Conda. Full details are on my Github and the EDHM Discord.

Imp Courier with sexy lines

The Night Vision and Cockpit Lights mods are addons (not yet integrated into the main mod) but are very easy to install.

I hope you enjoy the updates,

PS. Special thanks to Blue Mystic for keeping EDHM UI up to date and user friendly, EDHM wouldn't be the same without it!

This all is awesome.
With the premise that i'm so grateful for all the efforts, may i ask if it could be the time to look at the (in)famous gray rhombus ?

Ahh I found the rhombus .. it will forever be called a rhombus now :)

Yes I agree, they can be difficult to see, especially in sunlight. The reason I didn't touch them is because there are 20 versions of the grey rhombus in the shader .. and to save space (in the shader texture), FDev have put mining elements in the middle of them (subsurface and core fissure symbols).

So we can probably colour them for Odyssey but it will mean the mining symbols will also take the colour as well. Or maybe we can just make them brighter? Either way, I'll definitely try to make them easier to see in the next update

Hi, yes I've been looking for the grey rhombus in Odyssey but I can't see them anywhere. I think because I never see minerals on planet surfaces anymore. If you show me or screenshot a place where the grey rhombus appears (in Odyssey) then I can travel there and see what I can do

Oh, if i remember well, you can see it at Jameson Crash Site: it should appear around the targettable Comms you have to scan to farm encoded data.
(I hope that it is just the same "stuff" used for "everything targettable"; i'll go hunting some rock to shoot at in the meanwhile).

BUT
We all are still farming RAWs in Horizons, so I'd ask to have it addressed also there, if possible.

Cool, I'll check out Jameson's, however I stopped modding Horizons in about March this year, and don't have time to work on both Odyssey and Horizons unfortunately. But I'll try and get something going for Ody

I am unable to select any themes when Odyssey is selected but Horizons seems fine, any idea?

Edit : I re-installed and it now changes the theme but the preview does not work in Odyssey, is this expected behaviour?

Hi, I didn't make the UI so I'm not too familiar with how it operates, but I don't think there's a preview for Odyssey. If I remember correctly, the UI dev (Blue Mystic) said to apply the colour and then press F11 to see the changes in-game. But if you'd like to chat with Blue Mystic then you're welcome to join us on the EDHM discord

Here it is, the grey Rhombus. It seems acting just like in Horizons.

Hi... I really love this tool! But I can't seem to get the automatic theme change to work when changing my ship :(

Everything else works just fine, and I've got the program running and ticked the box for auto-swapping, of course. But it won't work anyway.
