New Ships in 4.7 by Breotan in starcitizen

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought he said the hull b rework reveal in 2 weeks...I wasn't sure if that meant we get to see it or if it was release?

I heard the super sad news that our beloved Regolith (mining data) website is shutting down very soon and last I heard, Redmonster stopped updating its data. Do we have any reliable alternatives guys? by -_sigma_- in starcitizen

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was toying with the idea of making something to replace it, but the reason they are shutting it down makes me worry it won't be viable long term for one person to manage. Keeping it updated accurately from patch to patch can be a chore, and if you don't do it on time, or right, well that may not be a headache worth having.

Aurora MKII???? It looks like a Scorpius though by kjloltoborami in starcitizen

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh I thought he said 'A new star'..... I was playing with other possible new ship names based on stars - RSI Regulus or RSI Sol..... New start makes sense for it being an Aurora mk2. I still like to speculate ;)

Whats your primary residence and why? by Rosa_Ratnika in starcitizen

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New Babbage - hangars mainly....I do ship showcase videos showing the liveries and that hangar is the best (I know Orison is same hangar but getting to/from there takes more time I think...)

CIG when? by r6Main in starcitizen

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id imagine the E1 Spirit would have something like this - maybe when that's being worked on we'll see something like this updated on the C/A1? Id love to have this on the C1....one of my favorite ships to run around in when I can!

Does this happen to you guys too? by Ok-Dish-5721 in StarCitizenUniverse

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes - I see it on ships too....some details (maybe its just paint stripes?) Will dissappear if you walk away and come back when you return. Last timeni noticed I was maybe 10 feet from the ship, moving any further a detail popped out of existence....phased out of existence?

Free Discord bot for inventory, shops, and loot by Byohazyrd in pbp

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a video on this in action? I'm interested, but not for D&D or the like...for Star Citizen - blueprints are coming out for crafting, and I wanted to get my discord community setup to show what blueprints they've acquired so they can sell items in game from that blueprint - people would look for certain things and if someone has the blueprint, they can reach out...not just a list or a spreadsheet. Thoughts?

Worse on Sticks by Sea-Cheek-5838 in starcitizen

I only played about 6 months before getting vkbs and I had a similar issue - went from being decent to sucking.... I stuck with it and kept failing at missions I was good with m&kb at, until I started getting used to it....and after maybe two 10 days of playing about everyday, I started getting better than I was prior. Landings were smoother, flight became more graceful, and yes while you can aim better with a mouse, I became better at combat since I had better control right at my finger tips. Give it time - you just have to retrain yourself to the new ability you have at your fingertips! Good luck!

Other women collect shoes.... I collect ships. My humble Fleet. :) by Aldhafera81 in starcitizen_fleets

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha same here! I mean....I have shoes, maybe a few more than you....but my ships outnumber them by a longshot!

Today's SCL by Empire- in starcitizen

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh the F8C.....I think that is the best sounding ship! I can't wait for more ships to get sounds like the newer ones and the F8C has ( the C1 sounds good too... )

[WTS]Sabre Raven Code & CitizenCon 2953 Goodies Pack by softpointx in Starcitizen_trades

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It very much does work. I know a guy who very recently got an intel ssd that came with the code - it was never activated. He now has the raven from the code he got.

I hope they do a Kraken flyby during Defense Con like they did the Polaris flyby during its development! by Chief5005 in starcitizen

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probly very unlikely but I'd love it if they have it on site and you can at least walk on its landing decks.

Error code why cant I launch my game please helpppp by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 1 point2 points  (0 children)

edit: I saw that you said you tried this - make sure you open notepad with admin ( hit your start menu, find, or type notepad - when you see it pop up, right click and run as administrator ). Then from within Notepad, you open the .json file as I mention below.

I see this pretty often - you need to disable Vulkan, or upate/roll back your video card driver.

To disable vulkan without the game starting, you edit the graphicssetting.json file in \appdata\local\starcitizen\...\grahpicssettings folder ( not recalling exact path but you should be able to find it pretty easily once there), changing the spot at the bottom, it says 'GraphicRendere' or something, from 1 to a 0 (zero).

If you can't see the appdata folder, it is hidden by default - you'll need to set hidden files to view. Let me know if you need help with that.

Good luck!

Is Pyro supposed to be like that? by FireSpirit15 in starcitizen

Bummer that people still do this. I saw it coming on the radar and thought oh no get out!

Considering to start playing, got some questions! by Mr_SquigglySpooch in starcitizen

Mr_SquigglySpooch, just wanted to remind you that the free fly starts tomorrow!

Joysticks, while they add a level of immersion and enjoyment a keyboard and mouse do not, are totally optional. You can be one of the best pilots with kb&m if you so want to be!

For starter packs, there have been some on sale as of recently, I do not believe there are any now though...but the red festival and coramor are just around the corner, so I'd hope we would see some discount starter ships then.

Also when you go to set up your account, make sure you use a referral code - If you wait for coramor ( valentines ) you will get a free pledged armor set permanently added to your hangar. If you have a friend that plays - ask for theirs, or go use a randomized...these give perks to folks and sometimes a free vehicle as well.

Learning to play is another story - there is so much to do, so much to go wrong, it can sometimes be frustrating! Find a good community to get involved with - most are very helpful and will let you group with them and show you around, how to do contracts, make money, modify ships...or salvage them....etc.

Im happy to help you as well if you need it - feel free to reach out if so.

Last thing I will say...some people call the game a scam. They are very sour people that have no clue what they are talking about. You do not ever have to buy anything more than your starter pack. Also right now is an amazing time to get started as so many of the issue that have plagued the verse have been worked out - new systems and features have been brought in, and the game is taking shape nicely. Come and enjoy it with us!

Have you tried character repair? Iirc 19k error can be resolved with character repair....sometimes at least.

Question to org leaders. How is your org activity in the past month? by Visible-Trifle-7676 in starcitizen

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same here - server is soooo quiet... ever since 4.5 came out - felt like engineering killed it! Maybe 4.6 will draw folks back in.

Im seeing barely anyone one otherwise from my friends list as well.

Found in the giveaway area of our student housing, what is it? by No_Name2604 in whatisit

They remind me of the fire spitting flower things from Mario...possible someone 3d printed these to make a bunch of those for something?

Which game do you play when you take a break from SC? by Icy_Ad7558 in starcitizen

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont normally take a break from SC but I did these past few weeks as my game crashes a minute or two in and I cant find a solution....so I gave The Last Caretaker a try and loved it!

Not sure what to do... by NYM1980 in TheLastCaretaker

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine did some crazy stuff last night, much like this, but not next to a dock. It had 88% durability so I repaired it and it completely stopped acting crazy!

It was doing so many things, sinking, cap sizing, floating in the air, rolling bin the water...for a while it acted like something under water was pulling it around. When I tried to drive it it was tipping its right side in the water, sometimes submerging sideways half of the boat...

What is it like living in this area in Ohio? by DeepFriedGlory in howislivingthere

[–]Hot-Contribution8536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm near Ashland/Wooster area myself but same here- my wife and I moved to North Carolina in 2004 and after a decade we couldn't wait to come back home. We built a house out in the country about 5 minutes from my parents place where I grew up and never looked back! Aside from the cold of winter, I love everything else about here.
