Compatibility
The overlays will not work in full-screen Mode. They will only work in:
- Windowed Mode
- Full-screen Windowed Mode
The tool has been tested with Windows 10/11, we have no plans to officially support other operating systems at this time. If you'd like to contribute towards a MacOS or Linux-compatible version of the app, please let us know!
We can only guarantee the overlay will work with display scaling set to 100% in your Windows Settings. I'd say we're working on a fix, but it's relatively low priority. Some folks have reported it working at 125% scaling @ 1440p. Again, not guaranteed.
Main In-Game Overlay
The main in-game overlay shows each item type with its color and while fetching data it shows a loading bar. When you have enough items of a specific item type the image will grey out. If you have loot filter manipulation activated, this is the time to refresh your loot filter manually in-game. Also, if you have sound activated, it will play to remind to refresh your loot filter.
You can drag the main in-game overlay wherever you want, except in cases where you set the opacity to 0 (it's probably better to set it to 0.01 or some higher value).
- Show Button: shows/ hides the Stash Tab Overlay
- Fetch Button: starts fetching items from PoE servers periodically
There will be warning displayed in this overlay also:
- Warning if you have full sets, but need lower item level items (item levels 60-74)
- Warning if you have full sets and need to sell them
- Warning if you have full exalted shard recipe set
- Warning if you are temporarily banned from fetching from PoE servers
- Warning if you exceeded the rate limit (keep in mind rate-limits are enforced ACROSS ALL APPS AND WEBSITES for a given account; So if you query from PoE Trade Macro too many times, you will block your entire account for a fixed period, including this application)
- Note: We have a few restrictions built in to our app to keep it from fetching more often than is needed. If you run into any rate limit issues, please try and check for other sources of rate-limit including other PoE apps, your trade searches, etc.
Stash Tab Overlay
The stash tab Overlay highlights items in a specific order if you have full sets in a stash tab. No more wondering which piece of gear you are missing when selling. Another added bit is with this feature, you should be able to fit 2 full sets in one inventory. Leave it open when selling! Otherwise the highlighting will start from beginning with items you already sold.
If you want to change position or size of the stash tab overlay, you have to press the "Edit" button on the stash tab overlay. Then you can drag the stash tabs overlay around and resize it (bottom right corner), except if you set the opacity to 0 (better set it to 0.01). The TabHeader position and sizes can be modified in the settings page.
At the top of the stash tab overlay you can find the
- Edit Button: makes the Stash Tab Overlay clickable and draggable
Loot Filter
You can use any loot filter you want, but preferably an offline filter. If you don't have the recognition phrase in your loot filter, the recipe rules will be added to the top of your existing loot filter (which overwrites some rules, working on a fix). When the recognition phrase is added, the app will only change the styles in within the phrases. That means you can decide where the recipe rules should be modified.
Don't forget to refresh your loot filter in-game every time the item types change!
Make sure to back up any custom filters you want our program to interact with in case of any potentially unwanted behavior!. I've said this before but just want to make it very clear. Don't want anyone to lose hours of their hard work due to a nasty bug!
Notes on manipulation of Online Loot Filters
So some updates on the filter manipulation: Local works just fine! Woo! š„³
But... we're running into some limitations with the ONLINE Filter Manipulation.
Here's where we're at:
- Our program has no trouble manipulating the contents of the online filter
- Our program is successfully sending/saving those changes up to your profile (you can check for yourself after running a fetch)
Once your fetch is complete and your filter is updated on your profile (ONLINE, NOT in-game yet), you hit the reload filter button expecting the new filters to show up. They don't.
After hitting up the dev chat on TFT, I believe the cause is caching that is happening on the GGG side of things for your Loot Filters.
According to FilterBlade, they had to get special permission to implement their version of 'near real-time updates' for filters made on their site.
As a developer, I can completely understand their reasons for implementing a cache before hitting the database - it's faster and generally speaker easier a load on some of their services under the hood.
So, all that said, for the time being we won't be able to guarantee that ***ONLINE *** filter manipulation will work 100% with the new update. It may not even affect the lot of y'all unless you're hitting the set threshold you have set every couple of minutes.
Really sorry about this, y'all!
Recognition Phrases:
Chaos Recipe Start: "#Chaos Recipe Enhancer by kosace Chaos Recipe Start"
Chaos Recipe End: "#Chaos Recipe Enhancer by kosace Chaos Recipe End"
Exalted Recipe Start: "#Chaos Recipe Enhancer by kosace Exalted Recipe Start"
Exalted Recipe End: "#Chaos Recipe Enhancer by kosace Exalted Recipe End"
Don't "cross" them, meaning if you start one section end it before starting the other one.
You can change the look of the Chaos Recipe Section in "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\ChaosRecipeEnhancer\Styles\NormalItemsStyle.txt".
You can change the look of the Exalted Recipe Section in "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\ChaosRecipeEnhancer\Styles\InfluencedItemsStyle.txt"
Unfortunately there is no possibility to automatically refresh your loot filter in-game (that are legal), so you will have to do that manually (2 clicks).
Settings
Account Name
The name of your PoE account (not the character).
League
The league you are playing in; we pre-load all the GGG-hosted leagues into the drop down menu. If you are playing in a custom league, you can check the "Custom League" combo box and it will allow you to manually input your league name. Please be mindful of the spelling on those custom leagues.
Full Set Threshold
This is the amount of sets you want to gather. The loot filter will hide items depending on this setting. For example: if you want 5 sets and have 5 body armours already, the loot filter will hide body armours. If you have this number of sets full, you should sell, otherwise every item will be hidden (except for jewelery).
Refresh Rate
The time in seconds the tool waits between fetching the data. The tool will ask the servers every x seconds, no matter if you are in a map or in your hideout. The minimum time is 15 seconds, but I recommend setting it higher, especially if you have many stash tabs configured.
Fill Greedy
The tool tries to fit at least 1 item with item levels 60-74 in every set. Then it tries to fill the rest of the slots with higher item level items. When Fill Greedy is activated it will then fill the remaining slots with lower item level items again. When deactivated it will only allow 1 lower item level item in each set, that means it will save lower item level items for the next set. So you are more efficient when you are deactivating it while playing high tier maps.
Exalted Shard Recipe
When activated the tool will also look for influenced unidentified rare item sets, but it will never hide influenced items. When you have a full set, it will tell you in the Main Overlay.
Stash tab Mode
Switches the way how you configure your stash tabs.
- ID: let's you input a sequence of stash tab IDs.
- Prefix: let's you input a stash tab name prefix
Note: We cannot query specialty tabs - this includes Currency tabs, Fossil Tabs, Divination Card tabs, Unique tabs, etc.
We can ONLY query normal and quad tabs.
Stash tab Indices
Visible in ID Stash tab Mode. Enter all stash tab with their IDs that you want to fetch separated with a comma. Indexes start at 0.
For example: "0,1,3,4" fetches the first, second, 4th and the 5th stash tab.
Stash tab Prefix
Visible in Prefix Stash tab Mode. The tool will look for any stash tab that starts with that prefix and get the IDs automatically.
e.g. "Test" will fetch stash tabs named "Test" but also Stash tabs named "Testsldfjs"
Stash tab Suffix
Matches your given input and will look for any stash tab that ends with the provided suffix.
e.g. "CR" will match tabs named "Dump CR", "Test CR", "CR"
Opacity Overlay
The opacity of the Main Overlay from 0 to 1 which means 0% to 100%.
Close to Tray
When you close the Settings page it will minimize to the tray instead of terminating the tool.
Overlay Mode
Switches the Main Overlay modes.
Standard
Shows each item type and optionally their amounts.
Minified
Smaller version of the standard overlay. Click on the number of sets (left) to open Stash tab Overlay or click on "S" (right) to start/ stop fetching.
Red Border means it is not fetching.Green Border means it is fetching.
Only Buttons
Only shows each Button and the number of full sets.
Show Item Amounts
Only works in Standard Overlay Mode. Shows the amount of each item you have to fill full sets. Means if you have 5 helmets it shows you 5. But if you have 7 rings it shows you 3 because you can make 3 sets with 7 rings. Item levels will be ignored.
Hotkeys
Here you can set hotkeys for showing/ hiding the Main Overlay, Stash tab Overlay and for starting/ stopping the fetching to the servers.
Although the tool is fully usable with mouse only, too.
Opacity Stash Tab Overlay
The opacity of the Stash tab overlay in general. Although if you want the borders of the item cells visible, set it to 1 and modify the Stash tab Background Color. There you can set opacity of the background.
Stash tab Background Color
Advantage of this is, that you can set opacity here too. Means you can have fully visible borders and still see your items in your stash tab.
The opacity is the 'A' of the RGBA.
Highlight Color
The color of the highlighting in Stash tab Overlay while selling.
Highlight Mode
- Item by Item: shows you each item after another in the right order to fit 2 full sets in your inventory
- Set by Set: shows you whole sets after each other. The right order to fit 2 full sets in your inventory will still be marked.
- All Items: shows you every item in every full set. No order.
Tab Header Margin
The space from the left side of the window to your first tab header.
Tab Header Width
The width of each tab header.
Tab Header Gap
The space between each tab header.
Loot Filter Manipulation
Alters your loot filter every time you need to pick up other items. You still need to refresh your loot filter in-game manually. There is no legal way to do that for you.
Loot filter Location
Opens a file dialog. Pick any loot filter you want. Only shows .filter files. The standard location of PoE loot filters is:
"/Username/Documents/My Games/Path of Exile/"
Colors
The colors of each item type that are written in your loot filter.
Notification Sound
Play a sound when you have to manually refresh your loot filter in-game and when you picked up a whole set in the Stash tab Overlay.
Sound Volume
The sound volume...
