Can confirm verifying my files with the launcher fixed my Orange Sidewinders! Thanks for working so hard ya'll.

Also Sally, while we got you here, an issue that doesnt seem to have gotten reported alot (a few people have, but its not getting alot of responses) is that it seems a major source of the FPS slowdowns in Odyssey seem to be caused by windows/glass objects/anything with transparency added with the expac (as high as 30 FPS loss). I dont like posting directly like this but I feel it might necessary because just looking away from glass in stations or the glass part of reactor cores (like at my feet) gets me stable 60 FPS.

I do that too lol but I look straight up into the sky so the settlements load quicker, at least in my mind I believe it does.

SOLUTION FOR STEAM USERS:
  • Start Launcher from Steam
  • Launcher Options-> ED Cache disabled!
  • Launcher Options -> Validate Game Files (NOT FROM STEAM, FROM ED LAUNCHER!)
  • Launch Oddyssey and play (y)

This worked for me - I validated via Steam earlier and that didn't work

Validating via the game launcher worked with as you've described above.

Thanks for this

Ever since Odyssey came out I've been completely unable to patch (this isn't just related to todays installer issues). Any attempt to patch just fills my client.log with:

20210617/111435: { "action" : "DownloadedDataMismatch", "Downloaded" : "484013a7dc50c830425cd39fb0127424737cf422", "Expected" : "8cbf5c71e526a5541a39aa47d7fa570a0f248dc6", "LocalFile" : "C:\Users\REDACTED\AppData\Local\Frontier_Developments\Products\elite-dangerous-odyssey-64\Win64\0d\d0146c614de6657f7a2f4854f1a621fa560e30a1", "RemoteFile" : "http://cdn.zaonce.net/elitedangerou...nal/8c/bf5c71e526a5541a39aa47d7fa570a0f248dc6", "date" : "20210617", "time" : "111435" } ;

And the patch never progresses. I've tried every solution listed elsewhere for this issues (different combinations of all the launcher options, deleting part files, resetting IE cache, excluding from AV monitoring etc.) and nothing works. The only way I can download a patch is to clean install the game every time. Sometimes that doesn't work first time either, I have had most luck using a VPN to download a clean install each patch via the USA.

Don't suppose anyone has any ideas how to fix this?

Hm, I had long conversation on it by email, second solution is prohibited to be posted on forums I think (unofficial launcher), workaround that worked with official - disable virtual cache and start launcher without steam without IPv6 enabled

Just as a separate update, verifying the files from the EDLauncher did not resolve the Purple Viper issue for me. So while I'm sure it is a partial issue, it's not the full fix.

Nice. Me skipping on Kit Fowler paid off.

What about smear campaigns tho? Any drops?

I'm able to get online without orange sidewinder now via steam (I didn't do anything except wait patiently). However, I crash to desktop if I touch the galaxy map. Hope this is the right place to post this? Thanks :)

Ooo..nono this is interesting and all adds to the helpfulness! Great that it's ticketed up too. Thank you so much!

I made a thread about it here after update 1 or 2, and I've been posting screenshots to it since

FPS - it seems to be the windows & glass, or the light reflections being rendered on them

After Update 8, I'm happy this is fixed (at least in my test station.) Yay! After Update 6, this behavior is still present in SOME cases. E.g. the glass front at the pioneer store still tanks the frame rate, but the red glass in the railings facing the hangar lifts no longer slows the fps...

Thanks for that. I have virtual cache off already and I use the standalone launcher (should have said that before) so that I can just have Odyssey installed without Horizons (to save disk space).

I think I had this problem before in EDH. You sure you go to Conflict Zones and you pick a side with whom you will fight for ? You know killing Wanted Pirates doesn't count as Combat Bonds, right ?

Yes, before I started engineering I didn't do very well in CZs, but after hardening up my ship I've been in numerous CZs. I pick a side and we win, then I return to a station, turn them in and get credits and I do also get combat rank for my kills, but there is no advancement in the combat statistics for combat bonds, still stuck on one, when I must be at 100-200+.

I don't know for sure, but I think this broke on odyssey release, at least judging from the numerous tickets raised for the issue.

Many thanks Sally Morgan-Moore, finally in, not sure if it's something you did, I did or a combination of the two but, fingers crossed (all 6 I'm from Norfolk) we are away again.
Great to know you had your eye on the ball, ear to the ground and finger on the pulse!
