Hi Commanders.
As per all of the tracker chatter in the following release schedule thread
here, I'm opening up this separate thread following the below statement:
IMPORTANT NEWS.
Update 14 will be available for LIVE (4.0) versions of Elite Dangerous only, at present.
Legacy servers will remain currently unavailable, whilst we continue to investigate an ongoing server issue.
We hope to resolve this as soon as possible o7
Known Issue with Launching the game:
- For some, there is an "endless loop" when attempting to follow a prompt to update their launcher.
- We're investigating why this is happening for some and not others by passing on reports at present.
- A helpful suggestion on a fix for this issue has been shared by Commander Buur, in that If you have trouble getting the launcher to update then download it again from the FDEV store.
- Another case regarding the above launcher issues is that of Commanders being unable to acquire a 'new version' of the launcher.
UPDATE ON LAUNCHER ISSUES:
- 'Re-install launcher' will hopefully now work for those who have been struggling. Please do try again when possible/prompted.
CONNECTION ISSUES:
- For others there is a persistent black screen occurring following entering game.
- Again, we're taking reports and discussing.
- Commanders experiencing a number of connection errors and crash/stability issues when loading into game. Connection error examples are currently:
- Scarlet Krait.
- Mauve Adder.
- Taupe Cobra.
- Orange Sidewinders.
Appreciate if you're hitting either of these, then they're very progress halting issues that you're facing right now but we're here with you, we'll help as readily as possible o7
As you can imagine, there's a lot to take in from the day so far and lots more to come so happy to open this thread and welcome you all in as we move.
Once again, progress on Legacy availability will be shared as soon as we have it.
Thank you (so much!) for your patience.
