Thank you Rixxan for the explanation and the upcoming fix!
Hey there!
Probably more of a "me problem" but i switched Monitors around or this Multi Monitor Setup thing, i dont know
, and now most of the overlay is on not only on my second monitor but also out of bounds. Meaning i cant access the Options to change that back anymore. I tried to switch manually to Monitor 1 again by changing the cfg, but for some reason that changes back to 0 again on its own lol. Any way to simply reset the layout or something?
edit:
nvm - i forced windows to display everything on my main monitor and fixed it. I have a different problem now. The Panels are not centered anymore. Is there a way to bring that back?

You can reset the positions of all panels at any time by resetting the Panels database from the Launcher (Database tab). Select the database and click the DEFAULT button.Hey there!

To move the main UI, go to the CONTROLS menu and select PANEL. Drag the UI by clicking and holding the name in the center of the UI, then move it to the desired position. Other panels can be moved in a similar way by clicking and holding the panel name.

Anyone around that got TCE working under Steam for Linux / Proton? Installation went fine, I was able to configure everything but once I hit launch it will fizzle at 10% with the following error:
The VC Redistributable has been injected into the Proton prefix as well as .net 4.8. Am I missing a component?

Hello,
I have never tested TCE with Proton, so code incompatibilities are likely. But according to my research, this error has to do with how the images contained in TCE are loaded. I have now revised the routine and would like to provide you with a beta version so that you can test it. I invite you to a private conversation. There I will provide you with the link.
However, other problems or errors could probably arise, so I hope that this is the only one, because a complete revision of the code for Proton is not up for debate.

Hi, since the Ascendency update TCE-Relay hasn't worked for me. The app is stuck at 'Processing station file. 4%' and doesn't budge, even after hours. I tried to repair the registered market or unregistered market, in vain, then I reset the database to default and finally did a clean reinstall of TCE. No of these actions fixed the problem.

I have decided to come back to ED after a four-year hiatus, and I've discovered that my database will not update to the latest version of TCE without several error boxes and TCE closing automatically.
Are you by chance able to update old databases to versions compatible with the current release? I believe my .db files come from the 1.7.7.x era.

So I have tried to install the 1.9.4.9 version through both the link you posted and through updating the launcher on an older version.
If I click on the link and try to extract the zip, it tells me that the archive is corrupt, or I get an "unexpected error." This only happens with the zip for 1.9.4.9
If I update an older version to 1.9.4.9 on the launcher, it will show it's now up to date, but TCE-Relay still behaves as though before the update, getting hung up on "Processing station file" at a low percentage.

I need your database to check what is stopping you from continuing to use it. There have been some changes in the last few years, but none should allow you to continue using the database.
How did you update TCE? From the launcher or did you install the latest version and then transfer the old database using the launcher?
Thanks for the hint, the file was damaged in some way so I re-uploaded the file and checked it twice, that all is good.
The issue you encountered with TCE-Relay, I need your files to check, what the issue is. Please start the launcher and hit the "Report a Bug" button, attach the ErrorReportFiles archive, send it to me and I will try to find the problem.
Thanks in advance!

If I recall correctly, I tried starting TCE and it would not start without an unhandled exception, so I updated it by installing the latest version over it, but the database will not transfer without multiple popup errors.
The latest version of TCE will start fine if I install it into a new directory and use a blank database. I have uploaded my old CMDR and DB folders here.

Installing a new version over an old one is not an option. It is always required to select a new folder for the installation and from this version, you have to transfer your database from your old version to the new.
Your files provided not containing some vital files for the regular transfer, but as far as I could test it, everything worked. So please try again as described to transfer your old database to the new version.

Hi, Eventure
long time no see dude,
I have decided to return ED and of course still using this awesome program, glad to see its still going strong and the brilliant new additions to it aswell.
I think I've found a little bug
i am using 1.9.5.0 of TCE
the bug is small so not sure it's worth the report a bug Email thing.
pressing the Show/Hide Current Ship shortcut opens the panel correctly but pressing the shortcut again doesn't close it
once again, thanks for TCE dude, it's awesome

I can reproduce the problem and have seen another display issue in the Personal panel, which will be fixed with the next update.

Yes, that would be great, but I don't know of any public database where this data is made available so that it can be automatically entered into TCE as a location.
TCE already has a point of interest system, but so far it is necessary to find the point in space or on the planet yourself in order to then save the point with the corresponding coordinates. On a planet, TCE then leads back to the point again if it was selected as a destination. A point in space is only listed as a location, which TCE recognizes again as soon as you enter it.
