Release v1.2.0 elgato stream deck button plugin for elite dangerous

[mhwlng]

I have no idea sorry.

OK - put me in the "lost" camp...

Attempted to upgrade and got nothing

Tried to recover backup - nothing

Can't seem to find/load plugin.

Where to start on road to recovery ???

 

[mhwlng]

I don't understand your question ?
The plugin is installed, you can see all the buttons on the right.

 

[GJ51]

I don't understand it either.

What do I need to do to get it to load and light up the buttons?

 

[mhwlng]

just drag the button from the right to the left ?
it's all described here:

Updated Neon Orange Chevron Button Images v1.1 for 'Stream Deck Button Plugin for Elite Dangerous'

View attachment 188787

Changelog v1.0 to v1.1:

- Power Alarm button images included, because... well... the Stream Deck for Elite Plugin dev, mhwlng, added these new buttons.
- Clarity / contrast improved for text labels atop chevrons by adding a slight drop shadow under the glow. No visible difference for VR users.
- 24-bit PNG output chosen rather than 8-bit. Much less banded / dithered gradients than before, not that you can really notice it.
- A wild .PSD appears!

Just want to say thanks for these images. I have been using them since you posted them.. Amazing job.

I had forgotten to restore the profiles from the backup.

Been too long since I had to do this.

All good now.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

WOW Just got a Stream Deck XL for Christmas. found you plugin while looking for Icons.
this plug in is so much more than i was expecting. I am going to look at the auto swap of the profiles soon. so the question is
Do all the profiles have to be read only or just the "main"one?
and dumb question that i am going to think ED your a muppet is what is profile SAAMode for?

So a big thank you to you mhwlng

 

[mhwlng]

All the profiles have to be read only. It's not very user friendly, but that's the only way the streamdeck api will allow profile switching...

SAA : Detailed Surface Scanner
FSS : Ful Spectrum System Scanner

Thank you
can i name the profile to DSSMode if i change it in the main profile to Elite Dangerous SAA XL, or do i have to leace it as SAAMode?

 

[mhwlng]

No you have to use the exact names as in the instructions on the wiki

Thanks again thought I’d just be using folders with my stream deck but now with this fantastic plugin. I am looking to set up the automatic profile switching, But I have a few questions I hope someone can help with.

With the profiles

• GalaxyMap, SystemMap, Orrery, FSSMode
• SAAMode, InFighter, SrvTurret, InSRV
• OnFoot (Odyssey), AnalysisMode, CargoScoop
• Hardpoints

I am wondering how to use them. I’m assuming

Hardpoints = combat Hud mode?

and AnalysisMode = general exploration/cargo flight?

Can’t understand why a full profile for

Cargo scoop, (is this not a ether/or choice - open/closed ?)

Detailed surface scanner (unless to use it for directing the probes rather than using the mouse)

SRV Turret (again unless to control more than just pips) and you would duplicate the enter/exit turret on both the SrvTurret and InSRV profiles?

One again thank you for the effort you have put in to this and the time to answer daft questions.

Sorry, I don't use this feature myself, so I can't answer your question.
These are all the available game states. You don't have to use or define all of them.

OK

First step is assign to the button the function type... i.e. "TOGGLE, ALARM BUTTON, etc" then assign the function.

I've attached some examples of my configuration.

Thanks but it was regard to the automatic changing of the streamdeck profiles to the game state I was trying to fathom out.
having lots of fun playing with the buttons as above.

Just bought a StreamDeck and wanted to say thank you for this plugin and all of the help this forum has been.

If you have time, can you add the ability to select a firegroup? Not sure if that's possible.

Thank you

 

[CobaltSteele]

For what it is worth, this does not appear to work in the Tutorial Demo. Don't do as I did and spend hours troubleshooting when there is really nothing wrong. This is a great plugin.

 

[mhwlng]

@CMDR Kurt Vonnegut for some reason I never got a notification when you posted your question?

anyway.... here you go :

version 2.4.0

added firegroup selection button
