Elite: Dangerous Dev Tracker

It's due to the galaxy being busy in general with Fleet Carrier jumps - it will return to normal eventually.

Thought I would put this as its own post as it may get lost and it's my birthday so hey may get special treatment lol cheers in anticipation [USER=266302]@Zac c*cken[/USER] [USER=249391]@Bruce G[/USER] [USER=255952]@Arthur Tolmie[/USER]

Apologies if this has already been mentioned or is in wrong area of the forum lets just say I'm not firing on all thrusters at the moment, I would just like to ask if there could be an official post identifying what exactly will be done with ED on consoles (I don't mean transfers) presently I'm unsure as to what the future is with regards to storylines Cg's etc. I've seen a lot of suppositions as to what may happen but nothing official, initially it wasn't very clear as to how "cut off" ED on consoles would be whether storylines would still progress whether we would still be included in cg's what exactly critical updates meant with the only clarification upcoming...

Hi all! Just to let you know you're seen and we're on the case o7
I'll update asap.

I've read that .... and the question I asked is not answered there. Hence asking it both on Twitter when I asked [USER=266302]@Zac c*cken[/USER] and here and as yet still have no answer to the question.

I can put the question another way if you prefer?

I already have a PC account can the xbox account stuff be transferred to the already existing PC account or do I need to create a NEW Account/CMDR on the PC for everything to be transferred to?

The account can merge in-terms of purchased cosmetics etc but you won't be able to merge your save data. If you want to transfer your Commander data on console to an already existing account on PC, you'll have to delete the Commander save data that already exists on that account on PC.

If you'd rather keep both, you can create a new Frontier account using a different email address during th... Read more

This is all very much intentional and there have been no errors in testing. The undersuit (and all parts) get their name from the entire pack they belong to, as is convention. I understand on this occasion they are harder to distinguish in the chest pieces but the suits are all correct.

Hi all,

The latest Discovery Scanner is now live: https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/discovery-scanner-13062022

Greetings Commanders.

Following very recent discussions had around modification issues with the latest Community Goal FSD reward (https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/elite-dangerous-fsd-reward-issues-remodifications-experimentals-follow-up.593785/page-22#post-9613457), I'm here to share the following update on developments since issues arose and imminent action to follow this evening:

Greetings Commanders.

Can you actually believe it’s the 9th of December and this is the 9th Update for Elite Dangerous: Odyssey? Does anyone else have any connections to the number 9? Not like I’m trying to distract you or anything.

So!
Let’s get ready to usher in Update 9…
Elite Dangerous: Odyssey servers will be offline from approximately 09:00 UTC
Servers are expected to come back online, with the update available at around 12:00 UTC (long one, ah? Lot of meat in this...).

Time to glide our way through some factual information and the annotations of a woman existing solely off of double espressos, Barry’s Tea (sponsor me) and only ever good intentions.

sorry ;)

It really doesn't bother me at all, don't you worry.
We're working all we can and to the best we can with what we have right now, so there's really nothing more I can do or any way I can feel other than keep working with everyone to get Commanders the best we can.

Greetings Commanders,

As we reach the end of the month, we are delighted to share our latest development update with you.

Issue Tracker

To kick things off we would like to update you on the key issues as voted for by our community on the Issue Tracker. Remember you can visit the Issue Tracker any time to vote for your top issues or make a report.

1. Lighting and Illumination in Odyssey

Since Odyssey’s launch we’ve made a large number of updates to in-game lighting to bring the experience more in line with Commander expectations. These changes included relighting ship c*ckpits, improving all materials and overhauling star light and station exteriors, to call out just a few.

Following the major changes in Update 6 we’ve now, ... Read more

Lol yeah. 🤦‍♂️
I was thinking of someone else as I was typing.

You really were!

Hey both - we're aware of this one. It's likely due to the servers being under a lot of pressure right now, but the team are looking into it.

Greetings Commanders,

A very warm and happy 3308 to you all - it's really great to be back in The Black with you all in another epic journey across our evolving Galaxy with another year set ahead of us.
We're taking time this week to gather our plans, catch up and prepare - so bear with us for a few days more on schedules and such as we get out stars aligned.

What I am happy to share is that the team have been working on a small hotfix this week for Elite Dangerous console players, to address the following:
[LIST]
[*]Cannot edit fire groups - menu navigation does not work.
[LIST]
[*]If your ship has modules that fall under the Utility category, you're unable to set your fire groups because navigation within the fire groups tab does not work.
[*]Further Reading: Commanders can become unable to set fire groups for such modules as the Detailed Surface Scanner (DSS), Data Link/Comp Scanner due to not being abl... Read more

Greetings Commanders!

Ah! Some very clear captures of shadowy situations in this video - very helpful with further investigations.
It'd be great to gather more contributions from Commanders who might be suffering shadow shuffles like this kind on the handy ticket there with examples! Thanks so, so much for making it.

We'll also of course look into any legacy investigations of shadow issues we might have on this side. It may be that some may have been exacerbated following an update and we need to revist. Lighting is a temperamental thing!

I'd also like to echo, for anyone concerned over the issue tracker table saying that lighting was fixed for Update 6, the bulk majority was addressed from previous investigations and major reports, however we are still absolutely taking on any serious issues still happening with it morving forward, as individual issues, if they're reported and poked o7

Greetings Commanders!

Welcome to another week! We've got more for you to look forward to in the coming days, so please check out the schedule:





Tuesday

Anything new since July 27th, regarding consoles [USER=188830]@sallymorganmoore[/USER]? I know it's only been a week, but console players (more so the PS5 players) have been put on the shelf for a long period of time, so please, do excuse the obvious curiosity.

Thank you, and have a nice day!

I like how you used a screenshot there! Very fancy. Don't worry, I wouldn't try and deny anything I said to you guys hehe ;)
As I keep going on about...gosh a horrible number of a times and I feel sorry for you - I wouldn't update anyone on big key developments like this in replies to threads and such. I have absolutely nothing until official u... Read more

Once again, this is Odyssey servers only.
Downtime should be no longer than 15 minutes.
