GameHelper for POE 2

[GameHelper]

Introduction

GameHelper is an overlay created from scratch for league start scenario. It's not created to replace existing overlays (e.g. ExileCore2). Basically, every league it takes few hours to few days to fully update ExileCore2 and that's not good for anyone. Developers who are working on updating the overlay misses the league start economy advantage. Users, who are waiting for the overlay, have a wait until someone fixes the overlay. At-least, that's what I have felt in the past, it may be different for different people.

WARNING: Do not forget to use limited user method when running GameHelper. Otherwise your POE account will get banned. In order to validate that the method is working successfully, task manager should show your newly created user account against the POE game process (ref here). For steam users, run the whole steam on your limited user account.



NOTE: If you are having performance (or healthbar stuttering/rubber banding or maphack hanging) issues, please checkout F.A.Q 1.

Rules

Here are some rules

• GameHelper will always have limited number of features/plugins because it's very time consuming to create/maintain features
• Enhancing existing features/plugins will be top priority (e.g. there is a new flask in the game, please add that etc)
• Fixing bugs/Usability Issues will be top priority unless it requires more offsets in that case see first rule.

F.A.Qs

FAQs

F.A.Q-1: I am having performance/healthbar stuttering/maphack hanging issues. What should I do?
A: This is a complicated question to answer. Different users have seen different things working for them. As far as I know, GameHelper is very efficient. You shouldn't have these issues unless you are doing waypoints with 2000-3000 alive monster around you (or 50,000+ monsters in the whole map). Even in that case, POE game FPS will tank before gamehelper FPS. Normally when these issues happen it's 100% either GameHelper, Graphic Card or POE game setting issue. I have compiled this post which shows what people tried and what worked for them. Some of these things may work for you as well, some of them may not. So go through the post from top to buttom, trying one solution at a time and stop when your issue is fixed. If none of these solution work for you, I won't be able to help you since I have no clue why is it happening on your side and I not a graphic driver expert. However, I do assure you this is an issue on your side only. If you find a new method that fixes your issue, feel free to post and I will update my post. Also, GameHelper comes with performance stats window, which you can enable from Core setting window (under misc tools section), feel free to enable it and investigate why is it happening.

F.A.Q-2: Questions about limited user method.
A: I did not create that method. Method is not specific to GameHelper tool. There is a Forum thread with many comments, please go there and read the threads/comments and ask questions there. If you find an answer there, good, if you do not find an answer there maybe stop hacking and play the game legit way like millions of others do as well.

F.A.Q-3: Maphack has an offset/discrepancy, it's not 100% on top of in-game map.
A: Do you have a widescreen resolution/monitor? Play with GH setting -> Radar -> Large Map Fix bar. See what works for you.

F.A.Q-4: Will you add any more feature/hacks?
A: Read rule-number-1

F.A.Q-5: I want to share some cool AHK snippet.
A: Share it here (How to make advanced scripts - thought process framework with example). Just mention that its for poe2.

F.A.Q-6: I want to turn off healthbars/maphack since it's causing me issues seeing the game UI
A: Press F9 key to globally turn all GH plugins on/off. You can change this key from Core settings.

F.A.Q-7: I want to dump the status effects (buff/debuff) on me at the right movement.
A: F10 key can help you do that.

F.A.Q-8: Is there any default monster ignore list?
A: I will try to maintain this default list. Following is what you should ignore.
Metadata/Monsters/LeagueUltimatum/Turrets/
Metadata/Monsters/VaalConstructs/Golem/VaalConstructGolemSpawned

F.A.Q-9: what are some good misc objects to add?
A: maybe add following league mechanics?
Metadata/MiscellaneousObjects/Breach/BreachObject
Metadata/Terrain/Gallows/Leagues/Delirium/Objects/DeliriumInitiator
Metadata/MiscellaneousObjects/Expedition/ExpeditionDetonator
Metadata/Terrain/Leagues/Ritual/RitualRuneLight

i haven't done a lot of testing so use with care (prob don't use auto-flask for now).
Also, don't forget to use limited user method.


more details coming in following days...

[Shuyin_XIV]

Thank you very much.

I've adjusted the map for widescreen like in poe1, it adjust fine but kinda desyncs a bit as i move, not a big deal since it adjusts itself almost instantly, just to let you know.

Take care

OC folks, if you want to contribute please replay the campeign and find out all good important TGT files so we can see where exit/entry/checkpoint/quest items are.

[XORReverseEngineering]

here is the king, seems that for controller is not working

[LordMorpheuz]

Anyone else having performance issues with this? I get to a point after running into map density where the game becomes pixelated almost as if dynamic culling is trying to reduce the graphic detail (it's disabled in settings).
