Its not in that column.
This is shown at the right side where you can see the info about the goods.

In this case I am blind. As I told, I can see the "imported from" and "exported to". These are to be found on the right side too. Has someone a screenshot for me, so it is more obvious for me where I can find These entries?
 
Since 1.04 the start button isn't lighting up.

Launcher logged in with no problem
Game started and switched from "unconnected" to "Server: 54.170.15.80:19364

I had that this morning (didn't make a note of which server). There was a lot of activity on my connection but something seemed wrong. Eventually I just quit the game and tried again, worked as normal then. Only thing I can think of was that I'd only just rebooted my router shortly before trying to play (1.04 worked fine for me yesterday); I've developed the habit of rebooting it every few days to try and prevent connection problems in ED, after having an issue at one point that was fixed by rebooting it (even though my connection still seemed fine apart from with ED).
 
I think there should be a fix for "police" attack on players. For instance if I'm firing at someone who has a bounty and one of the Federal Security ships decides to fly infront of me and one of my turrets or other guns hit them, and I get an instant bounty of 300 - okay I can understand that. But I think it shouldn't be a 300 bounty, it should be a fine. I don't think that a single accidental turret hit should warrant any person in the system to hunt you down because you have a small 300 bounty from a single turret clip.

So I think it should be a fine, and I also don't think the police should gang up on you if you accidentally hit them once. But rather make it a threshold so you have to hit them 3-4 times before they start firing on you.
 
Huh. Is it possible to have server lag when playing in solo mode? That might explain some of the stuttering I'm getting. But I don't know why internet connection would affect solo mode.
 
Just wondering if you could post the size of the update in this as my download rate is horrendous (right now its <100kB/s) and it would just be handy so I could plan when I would download it. Not complaining would just make some people lives a little easier. Keep up the good work!

It's about 85 MB
 
I translated the patch noted into thickonese as requested by a fellow forumite, I hope these are ok for all!

Hi everyone,

New number for the space shooty game is 1.04, flyer persons have to go play candy crush while the nice game people make the game shiny again just after they have had their packed lunch. Here's the stuff wot was fixerated :

- Stations have been informed to ask the nice security man if they lose sight of mummy
- If the big man is sitting in the seat the seat is definitely occupied, we now know this
- Some stuff was not the same when it should have been the same, it is now the same when it should be the same
- Police are nice when you go boom boom pew pew on a baddie
- When shooting baddies all the baddies now remember the baddie shooting you did do to them in space and also the people in the big station place for bringing them the letters from their grans and stuff
- If you have exploderated a baddie the game remembers it was you who did the exploderating better than it did before
- The have put some super strings onto the bits in the galaxy to keep it together better
- Rats are now not allowed into the planetarium because Miss Jenkins says so, and Miss Jenkins is in charge in the planetarium
- Some planets are now the proper planets that they should be now that Mr Johnson from the physix class has told them what they should be
- Tell us who eats cabbage and who doesn't at lunch, if it's red cabbage though we don't care about that
- When the computer has an argument with the filing lady we now try and see why it argued in a better way
- The Pareco place wanted more than everyone else, so we've now told it that it can't have any more pudding as it didn't eat it's greens
- Someone lost their crisps, we got them back for them!
- Some stuff about eating too many crisps and looking at the shiny things
- We only got 2/10 in last weeks spelling test, this week we got 7/10!

Mr Andy will tell us a story later if we are good!

Edit: You can play again in the time it takes to cook some oven chips and chicken nuggets.

Haha, that is really funny, very well translated :)

Sad thing is, it makes more sense than the original description of these very few and minor changes.

I am wondering, if Mr. Braben has sacked all the important members of his gang, and told the cleaning service company to do maintenance from now on. Or, if they all got their bonuses after game-release, and agreed to run off to a nice warm place without internet connection, until people forget about this buggy game.
 
after intedicting a felon and having a scrap for 10 mins, they spontaneously disappeared - no frame shift charge or escape, they just disappeared after a few secs of rapidly teleporting about on the scanner - I assume this isn't some new cloaking device..? maybe it is

Thos maybe someone quitting the game rather than letting you kill him ...

Cheating IMO
 
Since the update (1.04) its now been impossible to not be caught when interdicted. Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me? Before 1.04 I was interdicted probably 10 to 15 times since I started playing the game and I would say didn't escape maybe 2 times. Last night I was interdicted 4 times and never escaped once. One time I never let the escape vector out of the very centre of the screen and yet my blue bar never went up but the red did and I was still pulled out into normal space with damage. I have escaped may many times with far worse flying than that (I was also interdicted by the police one time which was new (for me anyway)).

There was also another issue I noticed that wasn't as before too but at this moment (early morning + late night) I cant quite remember what it was. I'm sure it will come back to me and I'll post it when it does.
 
Nearly every time this game has been updated, I get a the same validation error when ever I try to install the new files.

The game was working just fine, this morning while I have ben trying to get the Voice Attack configured from the game.

I'm so up to my neck with these problems.

I haven't played since Boxing Day morning just before I had to send the computer in the get fixed again and have only just got it back earlier this week.

I haven't played since then, because I like to record my game play.

My handy camera is not working anymore and I can only use Shadowplay on the machine.

I have spent some time early this morning assigning what I believe to be voice operated commands to the key binds I have chosen in my Elite Dangerous game.

Yet, I can't get them to work and these actually cause my computer to go haywire anytime I have those commands chosen while Voice Attack is switched on.

What ever I did with it seems to be the problem, because my keyboard's behavior goes back to normal when ever I close the Voice Attack window completely.

Anyway, I just want to get the thing that allows my voice to be heard (Using the head set with microphone!) while making Shadowplay videos.


I had it working months ago, when I first downloaded the Voice Attack software. I can't even locate the original registration key they gave me when I purchased it and have been using the 21 day demo!

Not sure if my voice over is possible suing this software or the voice recognition software that is part of Windows 8.

A quick fix for every problem I'm having with this would be welcome.

And HOW is frontier responsible for voice attack working or not ?

Does the game work normally without it .. yes then any issues arrising you go complain on the voice attack forums.
Most people have no issues whatsoever with voice attack, however voice attack can be very quirky with windows of wrong languages (non EN-US)
This has nothing to do with Elite.
Voice attack is nothing but an "voice activated" key macro system.
 
Since the update (1.04) its now been impossible to not be caught when interdicted. Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me?
Nah, got interdicted 3 times this morning while fuel scooping, escaped all 3.
By the way, iterdicted is a horrible long word, what's peoples preferred slang?
 
Has anyone noticed that its impossible to escape interdiction now the update has arrived? Before the update I must have been interdicted about 10 times and caught maybe 2 times at most. Last night I was interdicted 4 times and couldn't escape any of the times even though I kept the escape vector nailed to the center of the screen. Has anyone else had this?
 
has anyone still got problems with comms not properly working ie the select ship part of comms when trying to chat doesn't appear ?. (or the window pops up but there's no boarder and no ships are listed).

When killing ships the End kill goes to who ever steals the last kill now ?. Before i could get someone down to 0% and just before i shot them again and they blew up i would get the reward, it now seems a lot harder to collect a bounty from a kill.

Other ships that are not attacking a ship you have attacked if "Wanted" other ships will freely let you do all the hard work and steal the last kill if you are trying to re build your shields.

To those who said they saw more players well good luck cause i know i don't see more people or at least AI.

Hmmm thats odd then as I pride myself on my interdiction avoidance and tbh there was no way that I could have possibly flown any better last night. The escape was virtually dead center the whole time and yet the blue never rose up at all. In fact I was pulled out before the red even reached the top. I shall have to play a bit more and see what the crack is.
 
So has anyone else noticed any systems moving to a completely different location?

Can I get an official confirmation as to whether Ditibi is going to be permanently located at its new location, or whether or not it's a bug? As I said, the imported from/exported to info still shows the old surrounding systems. The change being permanent or not is gonna have a big impact on my career decisions going forward.

I'd also like to add that from further testing, I was unable to find my friend in private group either. I also found that sound stuttering became unbearable in gas giant belts during combat. I've always had stuttering during docking/leaving a station, but now it's also happening in belts, but is much, much worse. Oddly, it stops as soon as the ship I'm shooting explodes.

The game is broken for explorers.

Can you remove or prevent cartography data from being destroyed if you die in a populated system?
The click-here-and-wait-30-seconds-and-repeat-for-multiple-hours minigame when selling cartography data essentially prevents explorers from exploring.

That is on the list to improve in a future update.

Validation Error

Hi guys, hope someone can help.

So I am trying to upgrade to 1.04, but just a minute or two in I get a message saying "Validation Error". Is there something I am doing wrong at my end, or is there a server issue? Do I need to delete a file at my end or something. Please let me know, as I am keen to get back to my game ASAP.

Thanks in advance.

Yours,

Marcus.
