Managed to get on top of a drop-Vulture during a ground CZ. Not very useful but it put a smile on my face nonetheless.

SakashiroI've uninstalled Odyssey and won't install it again until I hear reports that the issue of collapsing frame rates in settlements is fixed. It's utterly ridiculous that they weren't able to do that in eight major updates.


I'm not sure they can fix it. FDev doesn't pay their devs that much, so it's unlikely they have the technical expertise, especially with society and the labour market unravelling as we speak. After 8 updates they managed to get it working on my system, but I have no clue how or why that is. I'm using Nvidia drivers from March 2021 461.92.

I guess that's the downside of using an in-house engine instead of popular choices such as Unreal, CryEngine/Lumberyard, or Unity: you need to employ experienced developers to maintain your engine, and these don't come cheap.

I think those aren't getting unlocked, but are being bought directly. Check your module storage at the station, to be sure.

I'm bit afraid that you need to put some cushion under your knees... You can spend some time in that pose... God make me wrong, please!


That is what the cushioned kneed pads are for on your suit.

ok I am moron. but they really need to list the landing pad size on the mission before you take it.

At one point they would just not allow you to take any missions where your ship was too large for the destination. I guess they don't do that anymore? Been a while since I've done those.

yeah I can always take the mission but once you get there they won't let you land because your ship is too big, have to read destination chart to see if it has a pad to fit your ship or not before leaving dock.

Aside from the Directional Shadows and Spot Shadows settings, I find the Terrain Quality setting has by far the biggest impact on FPS for me. Adjusting the other various settings only made a minor difference if any at all.

My biggest issue with Odyssey at the moment is that the game crashes basically every time i open the system map. Anyone else having this and know of a fix?

  • If you installed third party shaders, delete them.
  • Perform a "Verify File Integrity" from the launcher.
  • Update your videocard drivers
  • When the game is loaded again first time do not task switch away during the Planet Generation and Shader Cache generation phases. If you don't know what I'm talking about, there's an option in the Launcher that allows you to pregenerate shaders and what not (I can't remember the exact name). I'd recommend enabling it if it isn't.
  • Ensure your OS has enough memory. If you're running on 8Gb or whatever you need to have plenty of Virtual Memory available though this assumes you're running it on a potato.

Regardless, whenever the game crashes send the crash report to FDev and put "repeatable" and a description of what you did before it crashes. (every time)
