Elite Dangerous Market Connector 5.4.1

What Is Elite Dangerous Market Connector?

Elite Dangerous Market Connector ("EDMC") is a third-party application for use with Frontier Developments' game "Elite Dangerous". 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 achieve 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.

Find out more on the EDMC Wiki.

NB: This application is of no use with a Console game account. We now test against, and package with Python 3.10.x. As a consequence of this we no longer support Windows 7, due to Python 3.10.x itself not supporting Windows 7.

As has become routine now, various anti-virus software are reporting a false positive on our installer and/or files it contains. I've pre-emptively uploaded the installer to VirusTotal if you want to check what it's saying. Please see our Troubleshooting/AV-false-positives FAQ for further information.

Release 5.4.1 (VirusTotal)

  • We now test against, and package with, Python 3.10.5.
  • If for any reason EDMarketConnector.exe fails to shutdown and exit when asked to by the upgrade process this should no longer result in a spontaneous system reboot.  Closes #1492.
    A manual reboot will still be required to complete the EDMarketConnector upgrade process and we make no guarantees about the stability of the application until this is done.
  • The new EDDN fsssignaldiscovered/1 schema has been implemented.
  • EDSM trace level logging will no longer log API credentials unless explicitly asked to, separately from other EDSM API trace logging.

Bug Fixes

  • EDDN: Ensure we always remove all _Localised suffix keys in data.  This was missed in some recent new schemas and turned out to be an issue for at least approachsettlement/1.
