*** For 10.6 users and below. PLEASE BE PATIENT WHEN EDD FIRST RUNS - If your upgrading from 10.6 and below, then it's going to update your system database to make it smaller. This will take a while (dependent on the performance of the drive where the star database is being stored). Also beware as the upgrade proceeds, its best not to use any features which use the database (route planner, looking up stars etc) as it can cause problems and crash EDD. If it does, just rerun EDD. It's best just to leave the program to do the upgrade on the first run.

If you have a slow HDD or a hybrid, it may be better to delete the system DB and let it rebuild it completely. Hold down shift, run EDD, and select Delete System DB. Then run and it will prompt you for what sectors to download and then rebuild the DB.

The upgrade on a SSD should take < 1 hour and result in a EDDsystem.sqlite file of about 3.XGB. If its takes longer than this, or its much bigger than this, delete the system DB and start it afresh.


The voice pack has had minor updates to 12.3.2.0. Please update.


Release 11.2.2:

  • 3dMap has been given love.
    • The information given on hover has been removed as this was causing most of the hang ups as it clashed with the loading of the star grid. The grid should be responsive from the start now, and keep on being responsive as it loads the stars.
    • You can now get the same tip information if you click on a star or galaxy object. It will pop up the information in a hover tip.
    • Star naming has been checked - if its slow, its because its being blocked by the star grid load.
    • The keys E/Q has been swapped to make it more natural, E turns you left, Q right
    • Zoom slewing made to work again properly
    • Position slewing checked
    • Double click to go to selected object checked.
  • Other parts blocking due to system db congestion have been addressed - sysinfo
  • You can still stall the UI when loading the 3dmap, such as the expedition panel which requests lots of system db data. This cannot be avoided - yet.
  • Material type/rarity added to output of journal events when collecting/discovering materials

Release 11.2.1:

  • Star distance panel - now auto adapts to location so it does not ask for too many stars. This should improve performance of the whole program around the bubble if you've asked for 1000 ly distance in search.

  • Webserver (Roccat Power grid)

    • fixed issues with needless redisplay of grid/status
    • added tooltip text to show what each button means
    • fixed hide/show of some of the buttons in each mode (srv/landed/docked/space etc) to better match what you can do
    • Added full screen button - thanks to phwoelfel for that!
  • Fixed more places where time is displayed so it works with the new game time

    • Captains log - changing time display resets the time selectors
    • Visited stars
    • Bookmark form
    • Set note form
    • Stats
    • Expedition
    • Excel outputs from various panels
  • Fixed issue in formatting in bookmark form for region areas

  • Fixed issue in EDD disappearing behind another window when using the filter drop down

  • Fixed apa vietii not being rare.

  • Lat/Long is now 4 digit decimal instead of seconds/minutes, to match ED

Major new features for 11.2.0:

  • You can now show Game time (3306) UTC or local time as your preferred time display
  • Updated all commodities/materials to ED 3.6 standard
  • The issue with the DB not being updated properly from 10.6, causing a crash, has been fixed. It proactively checks the DB table involved and makes sure its the new one
  • Galmap/Journal systems are cached to system cache so you have more systems available if the EDSM database is being updated
  • Fix action menus - some of them were not rendering right due to changes made for the HDPI font changes.
  • Synthesis/Engineering dialog shows your current mat/data totals in parenthesis in the recipe description - helps you see how many of each got vs the recipe.
  • Visited stars - the value scan total is now properly sortable
  • On first run, or if the eddsystem.sqlite file is removed, it will not download the EDSM data until you have made the selection of what galaxy data to download. This prevents a wasted download
  • When enabling EDDB/EDSM in settings, and you have no grids selected to download, it pops up the grid dialog to remind you to set them.

Trapmine (which always faults) is from Estonia. I've not idea what algorithm they use but if your using them I would say, very good luck to you. Egambit is new to virus total.
