Please open the panel.mdb > PanelPosition table and look for the z-coord column. If there is any value under 10 or above 400, then change it to the default value of 100. In addition, please check also, if your Office version is up-to-date.

All values in panel.mdb for z-coords are already at 100. Just for the hell of it I re-entered 100 into all of them. Same errors. Tried setting all values between 10 and 400 for all columns, same problem. I've redownloaded multiple times just to make sure, and still same errors. I double checked updates for my Office version, no updates available. Copied the install files to my laptop which has Office 2013, and get the exact same errors.

But, GOOD NEWS! (sorta). I decided to download the non-installer file and give it a try for the hell of it. And, I get no errors. I added the beta3 update to it, and still no errors. Then I run the installer files, get the errors. Run the non-installer, no errors. So, I would say you have something messed up in your installer version files. But, for now I am just going to use the non-installer. Installer version probably just puts icons on the desktop anyway is all, I can add those :)

Eventure you may already have this planned for a future update.
I noticed there are more ranks in the Federal and Empire navies than are listed in the personal stats of the log book. Could you please add the missing ones.

Empire Navy: empire ranks.jpg

Thank you for a great add on for Elite. I find it impossible to play without this.

it's safe, they show up and can be used.
Personal.mdb looks like this (if anyone is interested in doing it by himself, too):

seems it has a problem with your selected picture(avatar) for your commander.
TCE only puts a shortcut to it, so if you move / delete the file afterwards, you get an error.
could it be this?

wait. it says cartoghraphy. must be something else then. ignore my post.

You got it right the 1st time. I just went to DB and remove the pic link, which fixed the issue. Thanks!

This is nearly the perfect trading computer, that it allows you to keep a journal of prices that you see on your travels is ideal.

the OCR is really good thought but really tedious ... are there any plans to use

https://github.com/Marginal/EDMarketConnector

instead?

This is not allowed by FD and can lead to a ban of users and TCE itself. So no way in using it. I will wait for the offical API of FD.

eventure, is there a chance you would sugar-top our weekend by releasing an update today?
i don't see more errors coming in that you didn't mentioned as fixed already.

hmmm .. It's not a scraper interfering with the local game install

I was under the impression that it used the official mobile API ... it even forces you to log in to your FD account so that their servers can send the data back to you ...

No, data scrapping through the mobile tool by FD is also not allowed. It is discussed internally by FD to open it for tools like you posted, but until we have the okay from the FD lead, i would not recommend it to use such tools.

I copied my last db folder over then rerun setup sorted out paths then started up tce and it just went berserk.
1st 3 error boxes keep repeating. then finaly once started I manage to pull up panel menu but tce just crashed after showing menu.
looks like a error in the position / destination not working correctly as boxes are empty?

Please check the V1.42 update note. All databases are no longer compatible with this version.

Did you use the TDM to transfer your database?
