Patch Notes Update Gamma update 2.05 incoming

[cmdrjudas]

Col's new binary does not appear to work for me: trying launch Solo and all I get is a spinning Viper. X(

 

[mcfetti]

New .exe supplied worked for me also...

 

[ZENTRIERER]

Had the spinning ship 3x as long as it used to be pre-patch, BUT it worked without any problems (normal exe file).

Hi all,

We have a potential fix for this "spinning sidewinder" issue.
If you could confirm for me that this new executable fixes the problem for you that would be great!

Download from;

http://hosting.zaonce.net/elite/gamma205/EliteDangerous32.exe

and replace your EliteDangerous32.exe wherever the game is installed for you and try again.

Thanks,
Col

Still spinning!

New .EXE file does not work for me, my name is Commander Grant if you need to check anything out.

Hi,


- Rename slave category to 'slavery' to hopefully reduce confusion about slave legality

Michael

Huh ? Does not compute ! (for me any way)

Imperial slaves are sold on empire stations as a normal commodity while slaves fall under the prohibited category in trade data for stations controlled by empire affiliated groups

I keep getting the message "Data corrupted" after trying to scan/explore new objects.

Hi Colin,

this fixed it for me. I could start the game twice with open play.
My commander name is the same as my user name.

If Col or anyone actually running Release Engineering is reading this thread, any chance we could get this push rolled back whilst you guys figure out what's wrong?

No joy with the new executable.

Hi all,

Could those of you who are having a problem loading into game where you are getting stuck with a spinning ship change your AppConfig.xml from

upnpenabled="1"

to

upnpenabled="0"

and try again, and let me know if that works for you.

Your AppConfig.xml file can be found in the same place the Elitedangerous32.exe resides.

Thanks,
Col

This fixed it for me. Can play both Open Play and Solo with no problems.

Hi Colin,

Did as indicated. Simply made the ED launcher hang on clicking the Play button. No joy.

 

[Speccy]

No joy here with the new executable, still spinning after a few minutes.

 

[Granty]

I'll reboot just in case I have some weird client caching crap going on ..........

your technically still in beta. so your testing the release day patch as it were.

they wont roll it back unless they cant fix it within ~48 hours or believe they can not resolve within the time frame

Since 2.05 Ive gotten the endless spinning ship loading screen a few times already (got it working in windowed mode)
and Ive gotten the endless hyper jump twice now.. rather annoying..
