  • Well I reinstalled on another PC and it works fine. So I will leave it for now. On another topic, I am having some friends over this Friday to play a 4 man crew. I briefly saw the already loaded scenarios that come with the game. For an intermediat…
  • The new version of EE has an error in Windows of "Invalid Entry Point" for one of my friends. Any advice to overcome it? Also when I play the game and spawn a ship I click to add the main screen and the game crashes and the log says: Err…
  • I have some friends coming over to play EE this Friday. Any chance a new release could be made since the September version? I think there are some good updates since then on GitHub or is it fine using the latest release?
  • Just excited to know this is still alive. I'm not a coder so I can't help with programming, but if I can chime in on game play elements I will. For starters, I hope there will be some interface with the USB DMX controller in EE2. I know that's way d…
  • YES thank you! It is really a great enhancement to the experience to implement this. I am using a DMXking usb to DMX dongle and it works wonderfully. I need to learn more of the options available. For example I thought I read somewhere how to keep t…
  • Thank you daid for this game. I too had a first session albeit not as intense as James'. There were four of us and we did have a great time. It's interesting to hear about the wifi issues as we too encountered similar issues and once I got the serve…
  • Another update HOLY CRAP I GOT IT TO WORK! My problem was that I needed to use the Entec protocol instead of DMX512. AND IT WORKS!
  • Ok update again, A little stumped. I have the new DMXking usb to dmx dongle. It works great using their diagnostic software. I find COM4. When I launch a server I do not get any light activity ever. This is what the log says. From what I read it act…
  • I have successfully gotten the uDMX to communicate with the lights and can confirm as well that the light will not stay static. Ultimately for me the solution is to return my current USB to DMX converter and purchase one that uses a different protoc…
  • Further update: I got it to respond. I am using the ilutzmination uDMX driver. I dumped it into my game directory even though it was already in the windows/system32 directory. I got a pulse. But my log says: [ERROR] uDMX.dll reported device is not …
  • What is the parameter of the USB device in Windows that I can use for the "port" setting. I saw the example for Arduino. In this case it is a USB to DMX and has a USB port but I have no idea how to confirm what COM channel it is set to.
  • Ok I screwed up and had the file name wrong. Fixed that. Debug use works great. Now when I'm trying to get my USB to DMX dongle working I find these lines in the emptyepsilon.txt after trying: [ERROR] Failed to open registry key for serial port lis…
  • I made some directories and named them "home" and put hardware.ini in all of them. I can't figure it out. I can't make a directory named ".emptyepsilon" in windows. I re-downloaded the installer and unzipped everything to a new d…
  • I have put the hardware.ini in many folders. All of them. It still doesn't detect it. I don't understand why. Is it possible that it is being used but the log will still say that it is not found? Do you happen to have a screenshot of what it looks l…
  • Thank you. But I discovered the game won't even detect hardware.ini. So even when trying to use diagnostic mode it doesn't work at all. :(
  • Howdy from Texas. I am not a programmer. I am a computer science enthusiast and have networked computers and hosted LAN parties for decades. I am also a big TNG fan. Love my initial try with EE and have invited friends to try with a full bridge crew…
  • A few other notes on this. I have looked at the EmptyEpsilon text file and it states after running the game "hardware.ini not found. Not controlling external hardware." But I made the hardware.ini file and placed it in the same directory a…
  • I never did understand (I'm a super n00b) did this functionality always exist or did it make it into the windows compile released on September 7 2018? Was trying to decide whether to purchase more DMX gear or go the Hue route. THANKS FOR ALL OF THIS…
