Does the word HIEI means something meaningful to anyone of you? About Elite Universe lore, for example...
Found nothing on Google apart from a Manga character and a Japanese Battleship...
 
But, MOST IMPORTANT, the T9 arrives to an OUTPOST!

Actually yeah, not to fill the next 20 pages with whether events are scripted or no, but T9s can't land at outposts. =(

Probably the bodyguards having a tea break, flying in circles is tiring work.

I've checked walkthroughs of the Thargoid missions in FFE and it isn't mentioned anywhere. So, no.
 
Hey, the Lavecon has left very good news right? Now we know that there IS more to unveil and we are close to do it (and it is already in the game)
 
Picture say all: I stay at zero throttle and wait , next picture is a nice Python in front of me and then a nice blue cloud ...
I really, really don't belive it!

What we have learned:
1. Convoi has lost one wing, then after a few jumps stay's near Outpost here
2. Convoi chatter continus in SC!
3. far under 75% cargo hatch something came out : here with the UA, rest leaves in T9
__(so no need to engage the Anaconda or T9 in that case)
__(Edit: and please dont generalize that again)
4. Chatter continues after the UA was out of the T9 :D

Thanks to the brave CMDR LURIUS that I could join.
He is really hunting again. Real sportsmanship.

Enjoy the ride CMDR's.
I'm a little, little bit disappointed not to have maked the last 50 m ...

We salute you!

Sorry you missed it. You have been working hard for a long time now :-/

What kind of outpost was it? Sientific, military or sivilian?

Nice work nonetheless! Anything special about Breksta or Popper Dock (or the route they took) that we know of? Not in game so can't check map at the moment.

OK CMDRs, VERY IMPORTANT!

I've managed to almost completely ISOLATE the infamous background sound the UA is constantly emitting. Big thanks to Adobe Audition software.
I've learned so many things about the UA sound, and the fact that is very smartly composed from a lot of layers, at different frequencies and tones. Talking later about it.

By the way, please use HEADPHONES or you will miss the details:

Now, please, tell me that it's not MORSE.

I'm not good at all with MORSE but I'm hearing:

.... .. . .. ---.. = hiei8

that means absolutely nothing to me.

I'm asking for help from the experts.
After this I'm done, and I promise I will stop bothering you about it.

EDIT: remember what CMDRBacked's friend said: "it's easier than you think, but not everyone will get it". That sound is at a very particular frequency that only some people can ear, that's why a lot of you cannot ear it. Now I've isolated just that sound, cutting off all the "noise"

EDIT2: link to dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ym192axrnn5bsgn/UA_4th_sound_isolated.wav?dl=0

EDIT3: to clarify better, I'm hearing the MORSE code on the plain UA sound, without any editing at all. I've done the editing just for you CMDRs. So the sound is there, not for everybody it seems. I hope at least one of you can hear the lot of bips I'm hearing.

It's all just random I think.

Out of the three systems only Timocani is Federation, the others were Independent.

When we were looking at RedWizzard's UA ages ago, it degraded to 0% and blew up.
Then several commanders were able to pick it up because we had different degradation counts.
We ended up with some 5 copies of the UA.

Someone said this also works with regular containers.
Would it be useful to try to reproduce this systematically so we can manufacture UAs?

That duplication is a bug and not intended for the real game and I have reported it to recive a reply from frontier to not do it and try to avoid cases that would do it, which I agreed to do so you can go ahead and try with your own UA, however I will be staying far away from those who do as it is just cheating in my PERSONAL opinion. Right now that's out of the way it would be useful to have multiple UA's as then we can risk more tests with less worry along with doing a lot more tests, this in turn will make theories approved or disproved much faster and more possible.

Sorry but...I can't get the track to load.....or any track on soundcloud.....so something has changed with it as I've listened to some tracks on there before with no problems.....

EDIT: sorry it seems like my computer has just forgotten about my headset and says no devices are plugged in...

I now have reinstalled my sound driver manager and need to restart my computer however I'm downloading something so........waiting 3 hours......and I was listening to a podcast too.......

EDIT: So my £100+ 2 month old headset is pretty much dead as I plugged it into my laptop and got an extremely crackly sound which leads me to believe that the cables themselves had problems......gonna try and send them back and get refund or replacements but any suggestions for better headsets that are wireless? I'm on my old headset which still works but old and beaten, plus mic is bad.

I can't listen on my phone and I'm crap at Morse, but are you sure about the dashes and dots?

Hiei8 is quite close to SAP8 in Morse.

I'm sure about the fact that there is a sequence of "bip like" sounds with structure and in two different flavors.
I know... I've tried to force me to listen sap 8, but i think it's a little different.

sap 8 is: ... .- .--. ---.. and what I can hear is .... .. . .. ---.. but I'm crap too... the first "word" seems made of all dots...

Wishfull thinking i guess :)

Not able to get a set of cans strapped to my head right now - certainly through my phone speaker (right next my ear, ow!) I can hear a higher pitched sound but it doesn't sound staccato enough to be clear Morse.

But I'll see about getting my headies on and will do my best, certainly.

This thread's gone a bit quiet at the moment - how many golf and cricket fans are there (not) here!?
 
What I've learned from decomposing the UA sound:
First of all it's very well engineered, really!
There are different overlying layers, but most important, they occupy different frequencies. Just to make an example, isolating just the part between two particular frequencies, the sound become VERY similar to the sound of a jungle, with all the animal sounds, really, the puurs and howls change completely. I'll post some examples of that.
At the lowest frequency you can hear a sort of snoring, very clearly.

That made mi think:
Is the UA sleeping?!
With the Purrs being the snoring, and the Howls being the yawns and we have to wake her!

One last thing for the Purrs analyzers:
The Purrs and the Howls are NOT synced, I mean, they go each for its road, that's why they overlap sometimes: Imagine them as two different recordings with slightly different durations, put one over the other.

The 20x speeded recording is also very important, because it makes very clear that a count down is occurring, with the purrs rising in tone, and going slightly faster and faster, while the Howls remain constant. Would be very useful to record an UA until very close to its END: we should discover how the purrs tone and speed change near the END...

Hi All,

Back on the fringes of civilisation and have the following in my hold if it might be of use, although the SAP8 experiments seem to be yielding results and Experimental Chemicals are probably a "mission component" - let me know in game and I'll fly it to wherever needed.
