!! Pioneer Question Time !! - Ask them here

[Geraldine]

Yep, sorry about the crashes, most of them were more or less my fault. However, I *think* most of the bugs have either been fixed already on master, or their patches are awaiting review on GitHub, so I'd say everything should get back to relative normalcy in a couple of days.Not to worry laarmen, these things happen from time to time, expected even. In fact the most surprising thing, to me at least, is that this sort of thing does not happen more often. Its a credit that is down to you folks and your dedication to the project. :girlsmile:

I downloaded it and when i tried to run it nothing happened as it wanted me to tell it what Program to use. as I said im a bit of a duffer on the tech side. Any help gratefully recieved

Hi1. Unfortunatelly not yet.2. Hydrogen for both flight and hyperspace. Military fuel for hyperspace if you have military drive. You can refuel your flight tanks, but you3. I didn't hade any full spaceports anywhere recently. Rarely even meet any npc. Which version are you using? Usually they fly away after a few days, depending on their cargo capacity. Try landing on the ground near the station and wait a couple of days on timeaccel.

Hey@alll Today I have downloaded the latest version of Pioneer (pioneer-20140926-win32) but it wont work for me, because the Game freezes after two minutes .The older Version (pioneer-20140924-win32) works very well. My System:Intel Core i7 2,80 Ghz8 GB RAMNvidia GTX 480 Win7 64 Bit P.s. I love the new 3D Cockpit, it's amazing!!! :maninlove:

Hey Icon, when you say it "freezes" can you give more information?Does it crash to desktop, or does a red message box appear with an error in it?Also there should be a file called "output.txt" in your "My Documents/Pioneer" folder, could you post that here or on PasteBin[/url] so we can see if it's got information about the crash in it? Thanks.

[Icon]

Thx for your answer, and no there is no CtD, the Mouse-cursor from Pioneer stutters and stops , than the normal bilnking Windows loading circle pops up, and i can hear that the Fan from my Graphic Card slow down and than nothing happens, the Game freezes and that happened repeatedly after 1 or 2 Minutes.When i press Strg+alt+enf the Windows Task Manager show me that Pioneer gives no more feedback .So i posted the Text from the Output file on"Pastbin". And thank you again for your Support and this wonderful Game and sorry for my bad English

[lwho]

So i posted the Text from the Output file on"Pastbin". Umm, you should probably give us the link, since at least my crystal ball broke in a rough landing

Ups, sorry :banghead: forget to copy the Link. [/url]

Hi ,five days ago i downloaded a 7z-Pioneer-file that is named :pioneer-20141120-win32.7z after unpacking i tried to run the executable ... now i am wondering if there is a 64bit version because XP comptibility mode won't work properly with that Pioneer32 executable and there is no installation menue openingbut just a white window named "Pioneer" and a quite small 2nd window named : "Pioneer warning" that says : "openGL error(s) during frame: GL_INVALID_VALUE" ... it has an "OK"-Button in the lower right corner. Well, i never made anything work with that ... XP-"compatibility-mode" anyway on that 64 bit machine with that 64bit win7 version. Systeminfo:CPU i7-2670QM 2.2GHz but win-cmd says 1.9 GHzGeForce GTX 560 M with 3 GBRam 8 GB Thanks and Greetingsiion

Hi.There's no 64bit version for windows.There were some issues with openGL in some recent versions, but a fixed one will come in a day or so. For me, 20141128 is already working.Why are you using XP compatibility mode? Pioneer 32bit should run fine on a 64 bit win7 (it does for me). (also: nice nick )

[fluffyfreak]

Pioneer runs just fine as a 32-bit exe on 64 bit Windows machines, I develop on 64-bit Windows and build a 32-bit exe. As Nozmajner says there was a bug with the OpenGL work but that fixed now and there is a new version available to download. Andy

[iionTichy]

thx a lot , you two !20141128 works on my notebook too :)i played it last 2 days and it makes me happy.iion

How do I get my hyperdrive to work again please? Gettig it serviced makes no difference, neither does selling it and buying another one. Also, how do I uninstall the progam? I'd like to install the latest release but I can't. I have Revo Uninstaller Pro but it can't find it either. Any help/advice greatly appreciated, Thanks.

[fluffyfreak]

You need to have enough fuel for the hyperdrive to work, there's two types of drives: One uses the hydrogen, the "military drive" uses "military fuel". You can buy it from the commodities market.You don't need to uninstall Pioneer, just delete the games folder, it doesn't "install" in the first place.

[sbarrumba]

question... (and sorry for my english ) there isn't the possibility to buysell in the market fastly.Now i must click many time with left mouse botton. This is not a problem if i buysell small quantity of products.... but if I buy/sell many articles in the market is not really a nice method... anyone have a solution? 

[Arrakkh]

I just downloaded the last build, time acceleration doesn't work anymore! I can't run 32 AU in real time as it takes some days, too much realism hurts a bit

[fluffyfreak]

Arrakkh what OS are you using? I've just tried the latest win32 build and time acceleration works fine.

[Arrakkh]

wi Arrakkh what OS are you using? I've just tried the latest win32 build and time acceleration works fine.windows 7 ultimate 64 bit

[nozmajner]

It works for me too (win7 64bit, 20150205).Isn't there any other ship around you? They won't let you time-accelerate.
