companion app

not sure how to get that to work pls help

[Luckfish3]

I too just encountered this problem this morning.

[SmithNuggets]

Holy cow you have a lot more tabs than I do

[Luckfish3]

That's odd....I didn't notice until you said something. I'm curious as to what the difference is. As far as I know I've got the most recent EDDI version running.

After booting up EDDI and re-inputting my password on the 'Companion App' tab (and authenticating with the code that Frontier emailed me), my Companion App is now connected once again. Give it a shot, perhaps it will work for you too.

downloaded new eddi 2 still couldnt get that to work. but no voices. VA recognizes the commands but no sound. also for some reasom i cant reopen eddi?

[Luckfish3]

I don't use VA, so I have zero experience with how the two programs interface. The Frontier Forum for EDDI is pretty long, but there is quite a few posts from people working out the details of getting EDDI and VA working together.

@SmithNuggets Luckfish3 is running the latest beta. You can enable beta updates via the EDDI app, and doing so may resolve the issue.

If that fails then you may have a corrupted file. Close EDDI (and VoiceAttack as applicable), then open %APPDATA%/EDDI and delete the "credentials.json" file. Restart EDDI and refill your credentials.

[Luckfish3]

@Tkael On the EDDI 'Home' tab, the box for 'Access beta versions of EDDI' is unchecked. In the lower right hand corner it says it's version 2.2.3.

[SmithNuggets]

I can not open the Eddi app. I've removed it 3 times and retired, each time has been the same issue companion app tab has that issue. Then after closed can't reaccess it

[Tkael]

@Luckfish3 Huh. I suppose you're right. You don't have the "Material monitor" tab. The same advice still applies.

@SmithNuggets If the prior advice doesn't work, I suggest you delete the entire folder at %APPDATA%/EDDI then reinstall. That should give you a clean install.

[SmithNuggets]

Ok I will try that when I get home. How is the compatibility with a HCS voice pack in voiceattack?

[SmithNuggets]

ok i deleted that credentials.json was able to open configuration. same thing with the companion now the netlog monitor couldnt find the logs, i put the directory in hi obtain and nothing

[Tkael]

It's good, but there is overlap. You'll need to disable responses from one or the other for some events or they'll be talking over one another.

[SmithNuggets]

Ok how do I get the companion app to work

[AndySpawn]

Same issue here (v2.2.3)

I've tried reinstalling, rebooting, ticking "Access beta versions of EDDI", running as admin, and deleting the credentials.json. Still can't get a response.

[SmithNuggets]

At least I'm not the only one, but what the heck is going on

[AndySpawn]

Got a prompt, today, to update to the latest beta. Hasn't helped any though.

[AndySpawn]

Started working tonight (v2.3.0-b8) I didn't change any settings, the verification came through to my spam folder after a minute or so.

[Luckfish3]

Now I'm confused...I'm seeing places where it states that the latest version of EDDI is 2.3.0, yet the link I download and install says it's 2.2.3.

[AndySpawn]

@Luckfish3 - I ticked the box on the main tab that says "Access the beta versions of EDDI" (hence the -b8 part) the other day while following suggestions in the other issue threads. The beta is for 2.3, while the release is 2.2.3.

I don't know if that contributed to it now working for me, or not. I didn't do anything new, or change anything, today. I just noticed a verification email in my Spam folder. So I started EDDI, went to the API tab, clicked reset, and re-entered my credentials. Minute, or so, later the verification came through (again, to my Spam folder).

[Luckfish3]

I just updated to the beta, and things are working smoothly for me. I had previously had problems with the script I was using to report fuel levels after jumping always listing "zero" fuel, and now it works correctly, although I didn't change anything except upgrade to the beta.
