Two words if you're on one of those he's in A/B/C bounty missions, or a long distance trade haul: Fuel Scoop!
Best 350Cr spent ever. And saved my arse a number of times already.

Yeah its nice but unfortunatly the cargo space is more valuable if you are a trader. I've learned to plan my jumps very carefully.
Stripped about everything except the pilot seat out of my hauler to make more room for cargo.
I've been running without shields or weapons for the last coulpe of days now. The shield compartment is used for my cargo of "freelance workers"
What setups are you guys running. Multiple screens, TrckIR, HOTAS or more simplistic?
Looking to get a decent(ish) joystick, but sadly can't afford the whole HOTAS system.
Damn this shit is expensive for HOTAS - but all the other systems are out of stock.
I also wanna try it on my 46" LED HDTV

On a different note, I had my first interdiction by a player last night. I am unfortunately still in my Sidewinder and shortly before this I had just swapped out my cargo holds for shields and a scanner to do some exploring. Thankfully, cos the idiot who interdicted me was Flying an eagle with a multi-canon but no shields (for whatever reason). Thankfully I won the battle and I gave him the chance after interdiction cos I didn't have any cargo but he still fired on me. At least I walked away with a bounty collection.
Found a sweet trading route and making ~130k per run with my trade fitted Cobra.
Interesting video.

To not derail the screenshot thread, what resolution you playing at Reavs?
Also, bought myself an Eagle last night and going to try my hand at some bounty hunting and assassination missions. I picked up one and have gone to the system but battling to find the person in question. Says I have to kill Gen. X. How do I find this person/NPC, just by scoping out those unknown signals ?
*Took me about an hour or so to figure out how fire groups worked.
1920x1080
Scan all ships in the system (target and point ship towards them until you have all the info). Also check out the Nav point in the system and the resources sites and scan any ships comming through there.
I suggest you load up a warrant scanner and Interdictor if you plan on doing more bounty hunting.
I see private group is now available, is this something new?
So anyone reach elite yet?
Probably not - https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=85102

I have the same one :D (as a word of caution Elite Dangerous does not properly detect my specific joystick so I need to edit a file to make it work - let me know if you need help with that).
Cool, shot. Strange that though, as it's on their officially supported devices.
I also want to change my HUD colors to something a little easier on the eyes.
They have support for some of the PID/VIDs, but not all of them. I have posted about it on their forum but it has been ignored. See https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showth...383&highlight=
Nevermind... game crashes on startup... every time!
This is something new. First time this is happening. Trying to figure it out... some say it may be related to key bindings being duplicate.
K, I've manually edited the config/binding file and removed all secondary bindings. Game loads now, but I need you to confirm if in game settings > controls > joystick - it just gives me options for the following;
keyboard mouse
keyboard only
generic joystick
I'm using customfly5.binds - copy this file ( http://textuploader.com/6dvj ) into Frontier\EDLaunch\Products\FORC-FDEV-D-1003\ControlSchemes
See page 171 of this guide https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=34437 for the actual bindings
ok, I've saved customfly5.binds - how do I tell the game to use this?
(sorry for noob questions)
