You can still manually set screen resolutions.

Actually, setting 8:9 screen resolutions is a very poor workaround for the real problem. Currently 3D side-by-side view uses the aspect ratio of the full screen, so usully 16:9. That works fine for 3D TVs, but when using 3D goggles, e.g. Google Cardboard, you need the aspect ratio to be halved horizontally, since each eye only sees half the screen. So we need to be able to render to a 16:9 screen with a 8:9 aspect ratio (basically the same as the Oculus Rift). It is currently possible to use 8:9 aspect ratios as a workaround, but since this isn't the native resolution of our phones, we need to use absurdly high resolutions to get acceptable results. It's also very fiddly to set up 8:9 screen resolutions.

Anyway, that is definitely low priority to fix. (But please add 3D SBS view 8:9 aspect ratio to the todo list. )

For me, the game has improved massively the last few days, so thanks for all the work you've put it.

Windows crash when changing to Dk2 wirh crossfire HD6950

I hope this will fix the blue screen windows crash i had this mornig as well.
i didn't have had the time to report it.
Elite was was running normally but when i changed the graphics to rift with all settings low.
windows crashed with a windows dumpfile in bleucreen at the click "apply"

Got a problem with the spacestation screen after I docked...can't control any menu options any more.. running either in windowed mode or fullscreen. The mouse pointer is gone and nothing can be selected. I've closed it and reopened it, and its completely FUBARed.

Hopefully that's the Statue of Liberty region? Systems there cannot be searched because the names are too long. I ticketed it in the old system, and am not sure whether we should be recreating old tickets or if you're still working against that DB, or ported it to the new system.

Nope, max length of GalMap's Navigation panel text entry is still 32 characters, while Statue of Liberty Sector XX-X X#-## is 34 or 35 depending on the final suffix.

I'm very much a trader too and there's plenty of profit to be made. I find it better just to ignore the trade routes on the galaxy map. You'll find plenty of other profitable routes if you go out exploring. It'll be interesting to see how much the prices adjust and how long it takes after the last update.

Got to agree with you cedettmar, and while I am not primarily a trader a few things in ED will need time to grow and evolve, my experiences with trading have been mixed but over all not bad, I don't get many hrs a day to play but even so I reset my account one week ago and I have in about a week accumulated enough to upgrade my Trany van, oops I mean Sidey, my Freeagle, purchase a Viper now working building up cash in preparation to upgrading the Viper. next project will be a Cobra. intermixed with trading, have made creds exploring and mission running to get the ball rolling. and my efforts are most likely very lowly compared to some enterprising commanders, and that was before the Tweak this evening to help with trading issues that were inherent in the system.
I will branch out more as time progresses. So with some careful thought and a little "work" as in, in game work commanders can make credits steadily, like most business types would tell you its out there if you are prepared to go get it. Also there really is no rush to get anywhere super fast, its an open ended environment, unless you simply want to boast being a billionaire at the end of the first week.

Using the Station Services interface prevents any further input.

In short, if I bring up the Station interface, I have to exit the game, as nothing (except the Escape key) works after that. :mad:

same exact experience. The whole stations services menu (post selecting "Station Services") pop-up board is dulled out and non-functional. I can't move around it with joystick hats and mousing over changes the element focused, but neither mouse nor joystick can select anything. I have to esc quit out of the session.

this was because i was connecting and starting a game w/ old client version, upgrade hadn't finished but it let me hit Play anyway
