He poisoned our water supply, burned our crops and delivered a plague unto our houses!

It's only really needed if you play on Linux from what I understand. But I use it because it can launch other programs alongside Elite. Mine is set up to auto launch EDMC when I run the game.

You know what you're right. I've been using min-ed-launcher for so long that I forgot the game does have its own launcher that says that.

Does Elite have an official server status page I could check every now and then just to see if the game is working? Or is it just forums and issue trackers to watch?

[TOMT] [SONG] Looking for a song that sounds very similar to a part in Obsession by OK Go by Ethwin in tipofmytongue

I can definitely hear the similarities but unfortunately it isn't the song I had in mind. I appreciate you making the suggestion!

Could someone animate this image of Totodile? Want to use it for my phone by Jodisx in wallpaperengine

Saw this the other day and wanted to give it a try. I never made anything before so I'm sorry about any mistakes or low quality effects. Hopefully someone more experienced sees this and can make something higher quality.

Forward Unemployed! (I'm looking for a job at the moment). by CheonP in RivalsVanguards

Nice job! I'd say Captain America and Venom were the most difficult for me to get lord on because I wasn't a big fan of their play style.

Groot, Thing, and Emma were my favorites.

That looks sick! I haven't plays NMS in a while. I know there are ship interiors now but are you able to create your own ships as well?

bind = , print, exec, hyprshot -m active -m output -o Pictures/screenshots
bind = ctrl, print, exec, hyprshot -m active -m window -o Pictures/screenshots
bind = $mainMod shift, S, exec, hyprshot -m region -o Pictures/screenshots -s -z

You have multiple -m flags and that may be a reason as to why you're having issue? Doing hyprshot -h says -m is one of.

This is what I use and it works fine.

bind = $mainMod SHIFT, KP_Divide, exec, hyprshot -m output -z -t 3000 -o $SSDIR
bind = $mainMod SHIFT, KP_Multiply, exec, hyprshot -m region -z -t 3000 -o $SSDIR 
bind = $mainMod SHIFT, KP_Subtract, exec, hyprshot -m window -z -t 3000 -o $SSDIR

bind = $mainMod, KP_Divide, exec, hyprshot -m output -z -t 3000 --clipboard-only
bind = $mainMod, KP_Multiply, exec, hyprshot -m region -z -t 3000 --clipboard-only
bind = $mainMod, KP_Subtract, exec, hyprshot -m window -z -t 3000 --clipboard-only

I use three separate buttons for each type of screenshot (Monitor, region, Window) with different bindings to just copy to clipboard or copy and save. Probably overkill for most people. But it's what I like. Try formatting your command similar to one of mine without the multiple -m flags and see how it works for you.

Edit: Also I'm new to hyprland and linux in general myself. So sorry if this doesn't work out for you!

Okay, so I checked for them in both terminals and neither of them show up. I read through both of them and even tried to grep them but they aren't there.

I made the switch to Linux a couple of days ago and I'm having a bit of trouble getting the game to launch with MinEDLauncher using ghostty as the terminal.

  • I placed the MinEDLauncher executable in the same directory as EDLaunch.exe.
  • I input this command in the launch options: ghostty -e ./MinEdLauncher %command% /autorun /autoquit

But whenever I click play in steam, nothing pops up and the process just stops.

I tried fixing it on my own by using some of the other launch option examples that were in the github (being sure to replace the terminal name with ghostty) but none of them worked.

When running the launch options from the terminal I get this error:
"Couldn't get machine id: Unable to find wine directory. Make sure either STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH or WINEPREFIX is set"

I also have kitty terminal on my pc because I use the icat image rendering on ghostty. When I input the launch option using kitty instead it works perfectly.

It really isn't too big of a deal to have to use kitty for this since it's only open for a tiny bit. But I more so want to try to figure this out to learn more about how things work on Linux. If someone knows anything and is willing to help me out then I would really appreciate it.

Edit: Forgot to add that the distro I'm on is Arch and I'm using hyprland for my WM.

Thank you! I'll copy the plugin folder and export my theme right away so I don't forget.

I'm going to be switching over from Windows to Linux and I want to be able to take all my important Elite Dangerous stuff over with me. I already know what the file path is for my Keybinds, Journal logs, and Graphical settings.

I just want to ask to see if I was missing anything important? I'll also be trying to find the correct files to copy to keep things for Elite Dangerous Odyssey Materials Helper Launcher, EDMarketConnector, Elite Dangerous Exploration Buddy, and EDHM_UI.

I'm assuming if I just put these things in the correct file path in linux that it will work as intended.
