Some interesting changes, talk, etc
Yesterday I also installed EDFX and started using it. It's great and all, except for the whole steam overlay getting force disabled. I checked steam's logs and yeah EDFX forces it to be disabled. A bit shit if you ask me.

Yeah, I think EDFX (or the like) really changes the sense of immersion you get and just makes your experience that much more awe inspiring. It's just a pity it now forces the overlay off, never used to. Besides, when the screenshot function did work it never captured with the post FX, which was fine I guess. Though you can still take screenshots, using EDFX built in functionality.
Not too bothered with whether it does take a screenshot with the overlay on or not. I just want to be able to use the Steam overlay with it. I checked the steam service, gave it administrative rights and it now uses my administrator account with full rights. Soon as I set Elite to run in Administrative mode it just outputs errors. So stopped trying to do that, not really sure what else to try. I'll read up on it today though, perhaps and older version of EDFX might work better.

I feel like they need to create a "lite" version which only implements the GFX overlay. And doesn't add all those other unneeded info. But that's the French for you I guess.
I'm actually considering trying out a different overlay just because of this. I hate it when an app changes parameters for other applications without my explicit approval.
