Abandoned [RELEASE] Trade Computer Extension

Thread Closed: Not open for further replies.
Sorry to say that, but there is nothing planned. To be honest, i didnt like powerplay at all, so dont count on any expansion regarding powerplay.
All your required infos can be entered into the note section of the star system or trade station.

Ignoring powerplay can you at least do the other features as they are background simulation features?

Current system/station does not update in compact or classic mode. I have version 1.44.

Probably a silly question. Came back to the game a couple of weeks ago and fell in love with this tool. Got it working using the suggestions offered. Now its time to upgrade to 1.44a. I am currently running 1.43. What is the recommended way to do this? Uninstall or clean install. I am assuming that I will need to backup the DB's (those in the DB folder)?

just install the full 1.44 to a new folder or rename the old, then use tdm.xls in the new folder.
point it to your old TCE folder and let TDM do the rest. then update to 1.44a.

that explains why you don't get results in the trade scout. tce is not crowd based. you have to gather the market / station data by yourself,
easy with eliteocr. i recommend reading yokais guide in the OP.
 
I understand that it is not crowd based :) The locking up was occurring even with a station in the destination. Being a Station i had visited and OCR'd
The Route planner still is a problem it is still causing a hard lock-up on my end. Even with 1.44a

Error im getting is
Microsoft Visual Basic
Run-Time error 13
Type Mismatch

and this from debug

Thank you for trying to help however I am still a little confused by pointing it to the old TDM folder. Where and how do you do this?
I have 2 folders now after installing 1.44

a. 1.43.old
b. 1.44

open tdm.xls in your new folder. you'll get a menu with a button to select your old folder.

eventure has a screenshot and explanation in the OP, at the bottom.

Awesome looking tool and I'd love to try - but my gaming PC has no office on it, as I'm using all my licenses on work machines. My workhorse laptop could do the trick, but I want to keep E:D on the gaming beast - so is it possible (perhaps by sharing the correct folders etc) I could run E:D on gaming beast PC, and run TCE on my laptop?

I'm guessing EliteOCR or other cross-machine permissions might be problematic. Advantage though to have the laptop next to gaming monitor and not use up any GPU/CPU...

Perhaps a future change...

Nice work on fixing that trade scout issue. I was on the verge of pulling what i have left of my hair out :)
Got another issue for you though.

The Position/destination panel
Is there a way to bring that up without having to open it via the panel/position ?

Regards

Click on the displays (left for your position, right for your destination).

Another error i think i have found. I can no longer save commodity after OCRing.

When OCRing, did the prices appear at the list? Please check with the OCR Debug window, if there is a problem with EliteOCR. Otherwise reset prices before scanning.

Some tried, but none said, that it will work. Check this post (under 3.).

Must be a problem with your database, did you run TDM for the transfer? Has TDM reported any error with the data and tried to correct it?

I did and it updated just fine. Only error I am seeing is the one I posted (up a few posts). I am also seeing the same behavior as above. I have tried to reset the prices and update but they don't seem to work. Also when it dose or I manually set the prices it does not save after. Sometimes after hitting the reset prices the dropdown goes blank and can not choose anything, this seems to be when I do hit the error mentioned, however I cant get to repro every time under this circumstance. I hope this helps?

tested and can't confirm this error, all working fine on my end. do you have the latest eliteocr installed (0.7)? but i really think it has to do with your database, something fubared in it.
or did you change your resolution, fov, or hud colours lately? but nothing out of this would generate a db error...

edit: i recommend testing a fresh db. TCE makes backups of your data, on a daily basis in the backup folder. so nothing to lose. just to iron it out.

I really really REALLY like this program.

I have one problem though. I get very many crashes whenever I go to my trade scout both in bidirectional and route planner (especially in the route planner)
Here are some screenshots:

Best regards and thanks for a great program :)

I'll give it a try tonight once I get off work. Thank you for the help.

Edit: Running 0.7 eliteOCR and have made no changes before trying to update 1.43 to 1.44.

I actually got it mostly working last night, it certainly followed my location well enough, but since I'm in bounty hunting mode right now I haven't pushed the database piece too far. It didn't pick up on my profile details though, so I'm going to look into that tonight. Since my laptop runs at a lower res, I've mostly just fiddled with the window layouts to get it looking right. Pretty damn cool though. I setup a share on local LAN from gaming machine and TCE had no problem with it (mapped a drive).

Since I'm using an X1 carbon touchscreen the experience of another panel right under my monitor makes it really immersive. Once I get a few more CR I'm going to get a new boat and set up shop for trading. I'll let you know how I get on.
