Mercenary Edition Extras now available to download!

Wait, what? Wasn't the Cobra Nest Pack given free last year on Black Friday? IIRC that was a one time offer (which, sadly, I missed) and not related to any pre-orders or backer levels. I'm a PB backer.

Oops, my bad. You are correct. I meant the Mercenary paint job! Post edited.
 
I have the Mercenary Edition and have the items listed. All I'm missing now is the Digital Players Guide and the Art Book. The Art Book has been promised soontm.

On a related note, has anyone installed the screensavers as they came in an exe format rather than a .scr? Ditto with the windows 'theme pack'?
 
You can rename m4r files to m4a, if that's what your phone wants. No need to convert them with a program. I dropped the ringtones into my phone and it worked, but had to move the text notifications to a folder named "Notifications". Thanks Frontier!

I think more phones are Android than Iphone, and it's easier to convert from m4r/m4a to mp3 than it is to convert them back. Quit your whining, Apple fan boys!
 
Beta backer (Aug 2014) and nada in my account. I was under the impression I would get the same as the merc edition, gawd knows.
 
Wallpapers are 'meh'
Ringtones are 'meh' (tho a more universal format would have been better but FD like their Imperial Clippers)
Sound Theme is 'ok' (tho it doesn't by default create the correct folder name which should be 'EliteDangerous_ThemeSoundSet_v1' not 'ED_ThemeSounds' which extraction automatically creates).
Screensavers are 'quite good' (especailly like the Starport and Hyperspace ones)

Can you please explain what the Sound Theme is exactly? Windows Sounds Theme or what? :)

Yes it's a Windows south theme,

To Install :-
Extract the ED_ThemeSounds.zip file put all it's contents in a folder called 'EliteDangerous_ThemeSoundSet_v1'
copy that folder to your 'C:\Windows\Media\' folder
inside the 'EliteDangerous_ThemeSoundSet_v1' folder double click and run the file 'EliteDangerous_ThemeSoundSet_v1.reg' click 'ok' 'agree' etc.
Right click on windows desktop select 'Personalise' and then click on 'Sounds'
In the pull-down 'Sound Scheme' should be 'EliteDangerous_SoundSet_v1' select it and click apply
Your windows default sounds should be Elite themed now

Cool, thanks. I'll try that as soon as I get them in my account... :)
 
I don't have mine either, I'm a Premium Beta Backer. I do however have links for the Dark Wheel Sequel E book and links for the Elite soundtrack in FLAC and MP3. These were apparently added yesterday.

Cheers.

I'd agree with this!
 
Love the screensavers but does anyone else find that the "Display each image for ... seconds" option seems not to work (i.e. whatever I choose it still seems to cycle through the different scenes at the rate of 1 every 5 seconds)?
