Elite Dangerous Market Connector 4.2.3

What Is Elite Dangerous Market Connector?

Elite Dangerous Market Connector ("EDMC") is a third-party application for use with Frontier Developments' ("Frontier") game "Elite Dangerous" ("the game"). Its purpose is to facilitate supplying certain game data to, and in some cases retrieving it from, a number of websites and other tools.

To do this it utilises the Journal Files written by the game when played on a PC. It also makes use of Frontier's Companion API ("Frontier's CAPI"), accessible once you've authorised this application.

EDMC has a plugin system which many other developers have made use of to extend its functionality.

Release 4.2.3

This release mostly addresses an issue when Frontier Authorisation gets stuck on 'Logging in…' despite completing the authorisation on the Frontier website.

  • Allow edmc… argument to EDMarketConnector.exe. This should only be necessary when something has prevented your web browser from invoking the edmc protocol via DDE.
    If you were encountering the 'Logging in…' issue and still do with this release then please try running the application via the new "EDMarketConnector - localserver-auth.bat" file in the installation directory.
    This simply runs EDMarketConnector.exe with the --force-localserver-for-auth command-line argument. This forces the code to setup and use a webserver on a random port on localhost for the Frontier Authorisation callback, the same way it already works on non-Windows platforms.
  • Add Korean translation to both the application and the installer.
