Antnee's Classy Item Filter for Distinguished Exiles - 3.0

Heh, "the loot filter for those who don't like loot filters". That's friggin excellent!

Hey OP, thanks for the filter! I'm a complete newbie so I have no idea whats going on, but I love me item filters! If I can learn the game then start tweaking this I'll probably spend more time tweaking than playing!


One question, can I play with this enabled with the default, out of the box, configuration without being afraid of "missing" things? I just noticed that, on my lvl 22 toon, it was hiding minor mana flasks unless I used the show loot hotkey, even when the "always highlight items" is turned on. Of course that flask is the basic flask and useless to use, but it is nice to pick up to sell for scroll parts b/c it takes up only two blocks. Or should I just be ignoring crap like that....as the filter hints at by hiding it? :D

Thanks a million!

You're welcome! Glad you're enjoying it!

You most certainly can play with it right out of the box without missing anything truly "valuable". In the case of flasks, yes, obsolete flasks will be hidden eventually. A minor flask is really not doing you any favors past, say, Brutus. This is why flask upgrades are shown in a brighter font.

The catalyst for that idea was just me playing a new character in beta, and noticing that I was hanging on to shitty flasks for far too long.

This is the default behavior. The obsolete flasks are hidden: if you want to show them anyway, use a text editor to search/replace every "Hide #Obsolete - Flasks" (w/ 4 spaces between Hide and hashtag) by "Show #Obsolete - Flasks" (w/ 4 spaces between Show and hashtag, it's in the section "# Section: Hide Obsolete Flasks - 001l"). If you use a 64bit Windows, you also may add the line "### Hide #Obsolete - Flasks" in the comment header, say, below the 79th line "### Hide #Obsolete" as shown at the end of this file:



After that, use my smartblock switcher, Loot Wizard @ https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1311603, to enable the obsolete flasks (and, say, to disable them again later if you don't need them).

Note: if you need scrolls of wisdom at the beginning of a league, sell blacksmith's whetstones.

v1.7

* Added Chaos Damage support gem added to Rare Gem block (with Empower, Portal, etc)
* Blessed Orb added to Uncommon Currency block
* Restructuring of quality/utility flask section. This is simply an under-the-hood adjustment, as there were some remnants of the old filter structure that weren't needed anymore.
* Almost every block now has a Text, Background, and Border line for colors. All of the added lines are just 0 0 0, so this is again an under-the-hood change only. The purpose is to greatly expand support for Filtration's theme editor, and to correct any items in the preview that were showing an incorrect color.
* Based on lots of feedback, all "junk" items with more than 0 quality are shown by default. You can disable this by clicking the last block in section 010f, and clicking "Disable Block" at the top of the Filtration menu.
* Added Smartblock tags for RGB items, based on feedback.
* Removed the itemlevel distinction from white/magic jewelry in the Smartblock tags. This is just for simplification.

Awesome, thanks! I dl'd that program which lets you edit it visually, which is super!

My buddy is using this as well (I convinced him) and swears that the script hid a wisdom scroll from him, we're level 30 in act 3 on normal. Does that sound possible or is he crazy? :D

Unless he specifically tinkered with the block that handles currency, no, that is not possible.

Edit: the reason is that all "hide" blocks have a specific class, or basetype tied to them. There is no generic "hide" at the end, so if something is not specified in the script, it will default to being shown.

I had a feeling that was the case, I was looking at the script and from what I can understand after reading up a little bit it is exactly like you said! The only stuff that is hidden is bracketed off by what I assume are ilvls and that apparently just scales up as you progress in tiers of about 5 ilvls, right?

Good to know he is kookoo for coacoa puffs. :o

Many thanks Antnee. First time using filter, and thought I'd better use the creation of someone I know. User-friendly so far. Love it. ☆ ～('▽^人)
