The Quest To Find Raxxla
- Thread starter Macros Black
- Start date
Anyhows back to some science... Seeing as Omphalos is just the centre of 2 different bodies or the naval point in some regards, it may take some calculating to figure out what the true Baricentre is of the Delphi system at any given moment. To be able to visit the location to shove it into yourd need to know which systems are even viable, imagine trying to dump something into the Roche Lobe exchange point between two bodies!
Ooh err, it’s the Khasi of Kalabar!
"They will die the death of a thousand cuts."
"Oh. But that's horrible."
"Not at all my little desert flower, the British are used to cuts."
Still so topical, even after 50 years!
Yes such a shame they never did Sci-fi…that too may had been relevant, sometimes it feels like a farce.Ooh err, it’s the Khasi of Kalabar!

Ah yes, when screenwriters and producers had an inkling about entertainment value and originality. Carry On was of its time, sadly long gone. I’m afraid I’m turning into a grumpy old man (no dammit! I’m there already!
)I find most stuff on TV and films nowadays to be so trite I can only stand to watch 5 or 10 minutes. Most of it seems to be just endless boring repetition of an initially promising theme. Particularly Marvel, but also recent scifi. I had hopes for Endor, but 10minutes was sufficient.
I’m just hoping they don't spoil the next instalment of Guardians of the Galaxy..but Dune was a good remake (though should have had the explanatory commentary/introduction that the previous version had).
Andor has its moments, yet a little dragged out, thankfully no space wizards with toaster knives. Dune was so-so, I’m actually more aligned with the Lynch version actually.
‘1899 / Dark’ were good, yet predictable. ‘Exception’ was rather imaginative… age and dotage does make us difficult to appease due to experience filters…
Didn’t someone propose a fan-film of Elite during the kickstarter (back on track)?

Think I want one of those bread knives for Christmas! I’ll put it on my list
Probably cancelled due to insufficient numbers of Thargoids, they’re too busy chomping on cheese-flavoured megaships...
Could it not also be the 6 clues in the toast. If you read it as it is punctuated.
1, To the jewel that burns on the brow of the mother of galaxies!
2, To the whisperer in witch-space
3, the siren of the deepest void!
4, The parent's grief,
5, the lover's woe
6, and the yearning of our vagabond hearts
I have long though that the toast was a map - a waypoint counter if you liked linked to the logo,
It was a path to create something in the centre - "To Raxxla!"
I guess like the address on a Stargate!!
Each phrase relates to a system, each system leads to the next and so on, this was a way to get to Raxxla or to trigger contact from the game / Dark Wheel.
But which systems.... I have tried many and got nothing, its difficult when you dont even know your on the right track.
Yes the 6 locations idea is another one, I’ve edited my post, that one’s an old / on one
but potentially still relevant, we simply don’t know do we.

Don’t be ridiculous. They are configuration files, the same as you can modify the key bindings file or the graphics settings file to get better visual settings than what is available via the GUI. Both of those have various, lengthy threads. None of those have been removed or blocked. FDEV will encrypt any files they don’t want you to mess with.
Please dont make yourself look silly, if you are:
A) Editing a game file,
For the purpose of,
B) Getting the game to reveal information otherwise not shown.
Then you are
C) Breaching the EULA by abusing a client to accept modified information for the purposes of obtaining information.
Not a problem I'll take it up with Fdev on the phone as its unacceptable to have people trying to handwaive through any forms of datamining... your claim is absurd as someone going "But I wasnt hacking anything in the game I was just inserting my own values into the memory addresses that the game shares". Again GUI and HUD mods have been publicly accepted by Fdev because they arnt remotely Datamining, All this idiotic behaviour does is call into question if Fdev should outright ban all modifications to files because stupid people given a inch of freedom decide they can take a mile and expand 'Yeh im just changing some graphical appearances of things' into 'Yeh lemme just manipulate this file so I can trick the game into loading my own values for the purpose of extracting information I didnt have otherwise, Datamining...'

Okay, did I say I’ve made any modifications to the files? No, I didn’t, and I haven’t. All I said was that it’s not against the rules to change config files. There are numerous threads published out there providing assistance with how to do it.
Looking at log files and modifying configuration files is not “inserting values into memory” the way you’re implying. You’re not editing the memory space. It’s not data mining.
Go ahead and call them. Drive over to the office and speak to them in person even.
Have a nice day.
Edit:
Also, your threatening reply to me is quite bordering on harassment.

Ill give you the benefit of the doubt and assume your misunderstanding the nature of what people are objecting to, it is not the editing of the files themselves that is a problem it is the editing of the files for the purpose of getting the game client to provide information you couldnt otherwise have... Im not sure how you could conflate legitimate usage like GUI changes and intentionally abusing this 'attack vector' in the manner they are suggesting in which like a miner hacking away at coal they can cycle through parameter's in a system above and beyond what the client would legitimately let you do for the purpose of finding "Secret" content.
What about the Winter Hexagon asterism ? Every idea I have seen ends up oddly somewhere in the Northern celestial sphere as viewed from Earth.Yes the 6 locations idea is another one, I’ve edited my post, that one’s an old / on one
What if they really are clue from each section of the saying but you have to say be at the location spoken of in the first section to even see in the sky what they are talking about.

Get a grip on reality theres no threat at all when someone points out wrong doing hiding behind "But ima pretend to be a victim" doesnt fly, Carry on throwing coal onto it though I dont really care about anything other than facts which from my perspective are simply:
People have put forth information that promotes behaviour that allows the person to extract information from the game not meant to be accessible by abusing the unsanitised nature of the input parameters in the loaded file, which I KNOW to be a bug as Inputs are supposed to be sanitised...
People promoting such behaviour should have it corrected when stated by them, there is a difference between accidental misunderstandings of a innocent nature and people doing things knowing what they are doing is abusing a bug and therefore, with intent, are exploiting additional data from the game.
Phoning Fdev lets me get clarification directly from them to the situation, the ability to report the unsanitised input bug exploitation going on and request that they put a little reminder out reminding people politely of what is allowed and not allowed modifications and various datamining-is-forbidden reminders.
Interesting you mentioned that because there is a game mechanic for that to work. In GalMap, there is an option to display constellation lines. It is a function that really only works in the core of the Bubble (~100 LY max from Sol). The big constellations are also part of the Frameshift Suite music for the game.
If you don't have the game's soundtrack, it is amazing and well worth the listen - playlist on YouTube is here: Elite Dangerous OST playlist.
Please, this thread is about Raxxla and the search for it and it's whereabouts. I like to come here to watch this thread and find out about the interesting things the experts here like to chat about.
I am beginning to find your replies to others off-topic for the purposes of this thread.
Either (A) speak to FD directly about your concerns, (B) open a new thread about 'editing game files/datamining/hacking/memory addresses' or whatever your claims are or (C) interact directly with other users via personal messages provided by this forum that you appear to have a problem with. Best of all, (D) just discuss the search for Raxxla.
1) I had already rediverted the thread numerous times do please read up
2) Weak attempts to support your friends cause are obvious but again, I dont care about people or feelings I will call out wrongdoing whenever I see it and dont care if others want to play 'see, hear and speak no evil..'
3) Correct this thread is about finding things ingame, within the rules and framework of the game.
4) Interesting your concern was with the thread matter yet you jumped in with some non-value-input post instead of doing as even myself and others have done numerous times attempted to actually post something back on topic... This glaring fact undoes the fake motive of your entire post and is offered as nothing more than proof of my 2nd point listed here....
Yeh the soundtrack is good it has to be said, Also I think people shouldnt put so much attention on Sol all the time we have no reason to think thats its important other than human vanity, take for example the clue of the Sirens deepest Void this could refer to many celestial objects including lack of objects in cases of actual voids...It could also refer to for example a Void or a Gap in a Signal...
Even if for example you find the 'Jewel that burns' even at that stage your now looking at a new skybox your perspective of the stars you can see will be different so unless you follow the steps in the right order you could never perceive the next true location.
Sailors in the old days who used Astrolabes would probably have had a easier time putting the links together and visualising it in their minds eye than the majority of people today who are unfamiliar with old technologies and sciences.
Same here. Northern celestial sphere!
