EDxDC uses a main.conf file to configure its behavior.

Default main.conf 

journalsfolder: "%USERPROFILE%\\Saved Games\\Frontier Developments\\Elite Dangerous"

pages:
  destination: true
  location: true
  cargo: true

checkforupdates: true
loglevel: info

Options

  • journalsfolder: Path to your Elite Dangerous journal files. Supports environment variables like %USERPROFILE%.
  • pages: Enable or disable pages by setting them to true or false.
    • destination: Show the Destination/FSD Target page.
    • location: Show the Current Location/Planet page.
    • cargo: Show the Cargo page.

INFO: If you disable a page, it will not appear on the MFD.

  • checkforupdates: When enabled, the application will automatically check for updates at startup and prompt you to install any available updates. If disabled, you can manually check for updates using the right-click menu on the system tray icon.

  • loglevel: Specifies the level of detail included in application logs. Choose from the following options, listed from least to most verbose:

    • panic: Logs only critical errors that cause the application to crash.
    • fatal: Logs severe errors that may require immediate attention.
    • error: Logs error events that might still allow the application to continue running.
    • warning: Logs potentially harmful situations.
    • info (default): Logs general information about application operations.
    • debug: Logs detailed information useful for debugging.
    • trace: Logs the most granular details, including internal operations and flow.

Select a log level based on your need for troubleshooting or monitoring. Lower levels (e.g., info, warning) are suitable for regular use, while higher levels (debug, trace) are recommended for diagnosing issues.
