Hi Pinocchio I like join the forum but I see you have "yahoo.co.uk on your black list.(too many spambots from there?.)

I will have to see if I can sort out another e-mail address

Hi Pinocchio I like join the forum but I see you have "yahoo.co.uk on your black list.(too many spambots from there?.)

Yesterday while checking registration I met the same problem To solve it I used Google mail.

tell Dreamzzz and the guys there done a fantastic job on the game hope to see some updates in the future.

Certainly I will, thanks But I still hope you'll have possibility to do it yourself.

Its a great site Elite game only wish we had some thing similar in English.

We discuss right now if we can do something in this direction...

 

[Pinocchio]

Would it be possible to have a mirror of the forum, where all the controls are in English, but where we all post to the same thread?

As I said above we are thinking about it at the moment.

I'm still finding it impossible getting on, because it asks me something after i log on, and i've no idea what that is, and google translator won't show that page.

Could you please copy here the text you've seen after log on? I will translate it for everyone.

Well i'm pretty sure that's what my pilot's name and password was.

I've tried to register a new account but just more cyrillic.

I'm going mad and am going to have to give up for now.

I've tried this and Buffet doesn't recognise the FFE D3D exe as a genuine FFE program, probably because it's been changed so much.
Fortunately the savegame files are compatible between JJFFE/GLFFE and FFE D3D so if there's something you want Buffet to do, you could save the game via FFE D3D, load it into GLFFE, change whatever with Buffet, save the game again and load it back into FFE D3D. Sounds a bit complicated but in practice it should be quite simple

thanks for that steve i'll give it a try, ps frontierastro is a great site i've been really enjoying looking around it, keep up the good work

I'll remind the wife of that; I'm in trouble for breaking one of her favourite champagne glasses
Thanks for the kind comments regarding FrontierAstro

Have you received e-mail after registration? To compete the registration you should visit an url in e-mail received from our site. The procedure is the same as at this site.

I've tried to register a new account but just more cyrillic.

Does my nickname look in a Cyrillic way? I suppose there is only one step for you now to get an account at our site

 

[Spacegamer]

Turwhitt
you have to do the whole thing in russian, only use the translator to see what you are doing."as they do not work on the site for reg/login ect"
you will get a comformation e-mail from elite games click on the link to activate as normal.
then you can post.

 

[Steve]

Thanks Steve and Vortex - yeah, switching off Aero solved it.

**Fix for mouse bug in FFE D3D**


1. Right click on the FFE D3D exe file and select "Properties"
2. Click the compatibility tag
3. Check the "Disable visual themes" tick box
4. Click "Apply" then "OK"

You should then get the mouse working properly in the game without all the hassle of coming in and out of Aero mode.

Has anyone managed to get on and register on the site yet? I tried last night and got the confirmation email but the wheels seemed to fall off after that.

What nick and e-mail address has you used? We will check our data base to see if something wrong with your account.

 

[turwhitt]

[Sir.Tj]

Yes, someone has.

Yes
inless you have some problem with the site here's what I have been doing

Use the link on page5 by Pinocchio.

look on the top of the page,click on the word "BXOA".

This should take you to the log in, log in as normal

look down to the "Kahan npoekta Elite 3 noa Direct 3d" thread click on it

Then click on for English speaking user.

Then post as normal click on the word "otnpabhtb" to send

 

[Darkman]

By the way, if you get bored switching Aero off and then on again every time you load up FFE D3D try the following:-

1. Right click on the FFE D3D exe file and select "Properties"
2. Click the compatibility tag
3. Check the "Disable visual themes" tick box
4. Click "Apply" then "OK"

You should then get the mouse working properly in the game without all the hassle of coming in and out of Aero mode.

Thank you - works perfectly !

I'm really looking forward to updates to this project, it's amazing what's been done so far.

 

[Captain Phatt]

Awsome, you guys rock.

This is just the most amazing thing I have seen in years.

I thank you all for your phantastic efforts in making this happen. I look forward to exploring the FFE galaxy again.
