Elite Nexus reads the game's journal as you play and brings together what commanders usually run side by side:
EDDiscovery, ED Market Connector, Odyssey Materials Helper, Observatory, Exploration Buddy, voice alerts, and the
websites you alt-tab to (Inara, Spansh, EDSM, EDSY, Coriolis, EDAstro). It works with Horizons and Odyssey on
Windows 10 and 11, on Linux with the game under Proton or Wine, and on a Mac with the game under NotProton,
CrossOver or Whisky.
It is one executable with no installer, no account and no ads. Written in Rust with a GPU-rendered interface, it
starts in about a second, loads years of journal history in well under one, and idles at a fraction of the memory
the older tools need.
What commanders are saying
Get started
- Download the latest release:
EliteNexus-…-windows-x64.zip, EliteNexus-…-linux-x64.tar.gz or EliteNexus-…-macos-arm64.zip (Apple Silicon;
on an Intel Mac, build the app from source as the user guide says).
- Unpack and run. Windows: unzip anywhere and run
EliteNexus.exe. Linux: unpack and run ./EliteNexus.
Mac: drag Elite Nexus.app to Applications; the first time, allow it once under System Settings › Privacy &
Security › Open Anyway (it isn't notarized).
- Fly. Elite Nexus finds the game's journal folder by itself and loads your commander. Start it before or after
the game. Community sync, the overlay, the AI co-pilot and the cockpit tools are optional and wait until you set
them up.
Everything it keeps (settings, the galaxy database, saved builds, logs) lives in a nexus-data folder next to the
program (on a Mac, in ~/Library/Application Support/EliteNexus; on Linux, in ~/.local/share/EliteNexus when the
program's folder can't be written to). Every page, and the Linux and macOS notes, are in the
user guide. Linux reports are collected in
discussion #17.
Support Elite Nexus
Elite Nexus is made by one commander, with no company behind it, no ads and no subscription. If it has saved you an
evening of alt-tabbing, found you a payday or kept hostile contacts red in your favourite HUD, you can sponsor it.
Nothing in the app depends on it. o7
Make the cockpit yours
- HUD colours: an editor built on the game's own setting, with community themes (credited to their authors), a
colour wheel, saturation and brightness, and a live cockpit preview that warns when friend and foe would look
alike. Applying writes only the three colour lines of
GraphicsConfigurationOverride.xml and keeps your original
file.
- Keep hostile red, friendly green and shield blue. The game's setting moves every HUD colour together, so a blue
theme turns hostile contacts blue too. Switch this on and your theme colours only the HUD's orange.
- Cockpit lights. The game has no setting for them: Elite Nexus dims the cockpit's own lamps and glow and nothing
else, with in-game keys for on/off (F9), how much light stays (F7) and reach (F8).
- Glare and exposure. Odyssey's auto-exposure darkens everything outside when the dashboard is bright; tame the
glare and lift the darks with the game's own tone-mapping values, starting from community presets.
HUD colours and glare use the game's own settings file. Keeping friend-and-foe colours and dimming the cockpit lights
need an optional graphics hook, 3Dmigoto (open source), downloaded from its
official release, checked against pinned checksums, and installed or removed in one click from the Cockpit lights
tab. You calibrate it once: start the game, get into your cockpit and quit, and Elite Nexus finds the light and HUD
shaders among those the game loaded and keeps a fix for exactly those. No game file is changed and Elite Nexus never
ships the game's code: the fixes are made on your PC from your own game and never leave it. The hook can't run
alongside EDHM, Frontier tolerates mods like this without having approved them, and it is untested under Proton and
on macOS so far.
