Patch Notes Update Gamma 2.01 incoming

[NoxIgnis]

Thanks for the update, always appreciated.

Any ETA on a launcher update to update the layout and fix some of the strange blocky colouring behaviour (possibly only affecting those with AMD cards)?

Yep. AMD Radeon 7970 Ghz and my launcher is U-gly

still game freeze @ ship spin loading screen

I unfortunately also have to report nothing except CTD on attempt at start-up. 5 or 6 times in a row now, but will keep trying for humour's sake

For me I even can get the firs screen it crashes as soon as I clik on play in launcher

Do you have AMD Gaming Evolved running in the background? This was causing my launcher to crash, killing the process for this fixed my issues with the launcher.

Nope, just tested it. Failed to communicate with server, unable to perform mission transaction (in OPEN, in SOLO, the mission doesn't even show up).

The best thing? Due to enforced failure of missions, several factions hate me now. Might as well delete my save data.

lets hope they fix the issue I have with the game client never shutting down properly, have to task manager shutdown every time.

Wondering why the launcher upgrade can't overwrite the game .exe and I see your post. I didn't even notice the game hadn't quit as I'd gone back to desktop.
The first time I've played Gamma 2 and it's the first time the game has failed to quit properly. All good now (task manager) so thanks for posting this.

 

[C0deBreak3r]

Just have to keep trying, it eventually lets you in.

pfffeeeew, i was getting boiled mildly trying to figure out why the crash happens after pressing the play button in the launcher. Seems to be ticketed already with Crash when accepting 'Play'. Looking forward to the update. Thx.

 

[MattBlaK]

Ditto, same here

 

[Longo65]

CTD after Elite-Icon.

This for me as well

 

[andrak]

So instead of fixing crash to desktop, for those of us that had the issue from gamma 2.0 they've "balanced" things so that everyone crashes to desktop - great work guys

Sadly I get a game crash while launching - never had that before - will raise a ticket

Same here, 2.00 was fine, 1.01 crashes to desktop, first time I've ever had that with ED.

 

[Karrzork]

Would a total reinstall of the game fix the launching issue - loathe to do it but if needs must!!

 

[gazzareth]

Managed to get in after disabling VSYNC, but mission transactions are failing to connect to server... ?? ..

[CatHellsky]

I have same issue Game crashes immediatly after launch

I'm getting this as well, have been since yesterday. D=

 

[EDbubba]

Ooo - missed this!

- Increase route planner spiderweb distance

I am happy now....

Useless unless they fix the bug that won't allow it to work with 20LY+ intermediate jumps! Been in the game since the Beta days!*

* Since the destination list in the Nav panel has an apparent "hard" limit on entries (35?), 20LY+ plus destinations can't "fit" into the nav-list, so you can't jump without using the Galaxy Map, ergo, the route planner bugs-out and fails.

2.01 updated and working here

2.01 updated and working here. Took about 3 or 4 mins on 12mbit.
Fingers crossed.

 

[Ludo Madrid]

New range?

Thanks a lot FDEV for the job!!

Confirmed: the new range for the route planner is now 100 LY. Great!

It didn't when I did it before the patch was announced, I doubt it would help now. Devs are looking into it I guess. =/
