PoeSmoother - effects remover

[vmv]

Any way to remove elementalist conflux effects? ignite+shock+chill

Use this version of the poehud to find out what files are loaded when area has changed: Releases * vmv/qHUD * GitHub

I the hud folder you will find a file called "LoadedFileNames.txt",...open it and search for your skills (to refresh the area and rewrite the text file...press F5).
Take the path of the skills and with the tool, add them to a CustomEffects folder, for any changes you want to make.

It's fairly easy to do it if you look at other folders..and their structure.

Good luck,

edit:

I think this are the files you need to change, not sure if all of them, just try them one by one:

Metadata/Effects/StatusAilments/Ignited.epk
Metadata/Effects/Spells/supports/aurafy/fire.epk
Metadata/Effects/StatusAilments/Chilled.epk
Metadata/Effects/Spells/supports/aurafy/chilled.epk
Metadata/Effects/StatusAilments/Frozen.epk
Metadata/Effects/Spells/supports/aurafy/ice.epk
Metadata/Effects/StatusAilments/shocked.epk
Metadata/Effects/Spells/supports/aurafy/light.ao
Metadata/Effects/Spells/supports/aurafy/light.epk 

All .epk files can be empty for max effect.

edit 2:

If those files wont work...try this 3:

Metadata/Effects/Spells/monsters_effects/aura/burning_element/burning_element.epk
Metadata/Effects/Spells/monsters_effects/aura/shocked_element/shocked_element.epk
Metadata/Effects/Spells/monsters_effects/aura/chilled_element/chilled_element.epk 

Same as above, empty the .epk files and the effects are gone.

The lag for me wasnt coming from the elementalist conflux most likely

I tried with hud to find the skill location but i only got
Metadata/Effects/Spells/monsters_effects/vaal_sacrifice/ice_storm/icestorm_02.ao
Metadata/Effects/Spells/monsters_effects/vaal_sacrifice/ice_storm/icestorm_01.ao

So shortly i just want ice storm icicles to fall but leave ZERO effects on ground as i think thats where the lag is coming from since that still stacks and makes massive particles even after 2.4 multhithreading i think whispering ice chilled ground is the laggiest skill in the game picture below for example what i want to get rid of


Vt09qW7.jpg <- picture here to show what chilled ground im talking about, here i am using your zero effects whispering ice

Im sorry for asking i know you probably are busy and you get nothing out of this so i felt little bad asking

The lag comes only from ground effects, and that version is the minimal what i was able to get from chilled ground.
If you don't care about ground effects, but you should...you can just completely remove all effects from chilled ground:
Metadata/Effects/Spells/ground_effects/ice...ice.aoc:

version 2
extends "Metadata/Parent"

ClientAnimationController
{
    skeleton = "Art/Models/Effects/ground_effects/ice/rig.ast"
}

SkinMesh
{

}

SoundEvents
{
    animation = "loop"
}

BoneGroups
{
    bone_group = "cyl false root cyl "
}

ParticleEffects
{
    animation = "loop"
}

Lights
{
} 

This should remove any ice effects on ground. Whispering Ice/Arctic Breath also using this effects.
The thing is that whatever you try to remove, the ground effects for ICE particularly is broken...it's something hard-coded that we cannot see or modify.
I remember that i tried a lot to fix that shit and i couldn't.

It wooorks!!!!!!!! thank you sooo much, yes i know this is quite bad that i cant see chilled ground but when its over choosing 10 fps in mob packs vs smooth gameplay ill take the second option.

Thanks again so much, love you

Yep, only completely removal of ice ground effects can fix this, i remember now...
You should complain to GGG to fix it.

I emailed them yesterday hoping they would look at it, hopefully they will since we have to do this to get a playable game.

Thanks again.
