Pack updates:

  • Voice pack 21 has been created

    This voice pack allows you to configure different voice effects for your co-pilot voice and for your NPC voices. Menu options in Add-Ons menu allow you to set up Co-Pilot voice and effects, Text message Voice and effects, and NPC voices and effects.

    It also allows you to turn on automatic selection of different voices for the Text messages (from other commanders) and NPC messages.

    Use the Voice Pack Configuration menu to determine if you want different voices for Text and NPC messages.

    It also Incorporates other fixes for events. Event DockingGranted has been fixed to say the docking position properly for all applicable types of station. ApproachBody now gives you a warning if your approaching a known body (one you've scanned) with a gravity >= 2G.

    Please see improved instructions on how to get more free voices for this pack here. Use the batch option at the bottom to import all compatible core voices.

Warning:

If you're using a laptop, with a built in APU and GPU, make sure you tell the system to use the GPU for EDD. See https://www.howtogeek.com/351522/how-to-choose-which-gpu-a-game-uses-on-windows-10/ Lots of APUs appear to have buggy or incomplete openGL implementations.

Major Features:

  • French and Spanish translations are on CrowdIn We have translators for German/Spanish, but of the major languages, we don't have any French translators. If you have some time, Please French commanders look at the French translation (at 62% done) and add a few more translations to help your fellow commanders! I'll add more languages later which need updates.

  • Bookmarks and surface features now have a Tag list against each entry. User definable tags can be created to categorise each entry. Filtering of entries shown by tags are supported.

  • Captains log now enables filtering of entries by tags

  • Market Data panel now includes a bar on supply and demand columns showing supply/demand level:

  • Factions panel now has Redeem Voucher, Pay Fines, Pay Bounty, Data link (3) columns. Note a bug in frontier journal output means that the values shown in bounty rewards is not the same as you get when you redeem the voucher.
    Add excel output to the panel

  • All multi selection dialogs (such as the travel history event filter) now uses a faster implementation which opens instantly, and scrolls nicely.

General Fixes:

  • Add on manager fixes display of some text in other languages which need more space to display
  • Add on manager you can cancel the github download of data done at the start - in case github is down or in problems. Previously the UI would get stuck waiting for github. Also will open more quickly if the files stored in temp folder matches github.
  • Fix 3dmap updating the bookmarks when another bookmark is added or removed
  • HTTP Downloads are more verbose in the logs, and are properly interruptable.
  • Fix rare issue with commander loading crashing on startup due to race conditions #3485
  • Screenshotter better at handling deleting files and detecting the next file using the same file name as the deleted file
  • CAPI now sends date time of server response, not local PC time, to EDDN. This is in case of some commanders not having their PC time set correctly (why?)
  • Action pack editing and action program editing dialogs improved and fixed - now scrolls faster, and a bug when expanding/collapsing categories has been fixed.
  • Action commands say/play have new option Para allows multiple voice variables to be held in one variable
  • Action command scan now can take a body name to report just on that body
  • Died event text fixed for events with only killership.
  • Interdiction fixed for thargoid interdictions to show its a thargoid who got ya.
  • EDDN send fix failure to send ApproachSettlement
  • Redeem voucher event fixed so it can read voucher faction arrays
  • Organics panel improve gravity presentation
  • Statistics panel fixed the last rank presentation if your time/date rate includes a late promotion but not another rank event
  • Fix sorting of Scan Grid panel which could cause a crash if it had a wrong mix of data on the panel
  • Friends event display fixed to show better summary of online and offline friends
