Client "Modding" TUT EN

[Graphicscore]

Hello , today I want to show you how to modifie the Game ressources of PoE.
Please excuse my English.

Instruction

 Spoiler

Wir beschäftigen uns heute mit dem Extrahieren und ändern der Spieldateien.
Wer schon einmal in das Hauptverzeichnis von Path of Exil geschaut hat wird wissen das es da eine "Content.ggpk" gibt. In dieser Datei werden alle Dateien gespeichert.

Today we work with the extraction and modifying from Game Ressources.
If you look in the Main Directory you will see a "Content.ggpk" in thise file all information and ressources are stored

Tools

 Spoiler

First we need a tool called "VisualGGPK"
Download :
Virus Total :

In some cases we need a tool to convert the .dds files into editable Image files.
I use the tool "x2y"
Download :

Let's begin

 Spoiler

First we start the VisualGGPK.exe
You have to select a file , the "Content.ggpk" in the Main directory of PoE.
(C:\Program Files (x86)\Grinding Gear Games\Path of Exile) If you haven't changed that.
After open the file we see this :



With clicks we can open different Points and surf through the File-Structur of PoE in a Tree Style.

There are following sections :

Art - All Images , Texturen, Models etc.

Audio - Everything with sound , Music etc.

Data - Alle information, Questnames , Descriptions, NPC-Texts etc.
Strings, Errors.

Metadata - Interface, Items, Character , Logical Stuff , Alot of Scripts

minimap - Minimap -Scripts etc.

Scripts - Scripts

Shaders - Shaders

How you can see it's seperated in different sections.


Alot of files you can edit are a kind of database and you can edit them in Visualggpk or export them in the CSV file format. After editing don't forget to save.

It's also possible to export a section like "Data" etc.
Rightclick the Item -> Export

For example you can export the data first edit them with a editor of your choice and replace the original files with the new one's , simply drag n' drop the files/Directorys on the Tree.

Paths

 Spoiler

Here are a list of some quite interesting stuff to edit.
If you found some interesting stuff or other stuff. Feel free to post them.

Art -> Textures -> Environment |
Data -> Worldareas | Names of all Instances/Dungeons like Terrace etc.
Data -> BackendErrors | All/A lot of Errors(Login etc.)
Data -> Quest | All Questnames
Metadata -> UI | The Interface (Texts, Positions etc.)
Metadata -> UI -> BaseColor | Change effect of Items if their drop
Shaders -> |Shaders/Render

Examples How to use

 Spoiler

In this example I will show you how to create a speedhack.
First open the file -> Characters -> Character.ot
Then you will see this :

Here you can see alot of stuff , mana reg. life reg. shield and alot more..
Right click on the file (Character.ot) -> Export , and save the file somewhere on your computer.
After you saved the file you have to open it with a texteditor , I use notepad++.
Now search the following lines :



And Change them to :

Pathfinding
{
	base_speed = NEW_SPEED
}

Now save the file and go back to the VisualGGPK.
Now rightclick on the file (Character.ot) -> Replace -> Select the changed file or simply "drop" the file in the Tree.

Finished.

Always make a backup of your Content.gppk and it's not my fault if you get banned.

Have Fun

Don't know , I think so , I look it up. Give me some time.

At the moment I can't see a opportunity to change the attack speed.

Pretty sure anything done here is client side only. So you increase run speed you move fast then desync and rubberband back making it orthless. Same with HP MP etc you can getit to display 100% and never go down but thats not gonna keep alive.

Yeah I know , but u can change stuff like the UI or the Textures.

I changed the color of rares and uniques so I could see them easier when they dropped.
Under /Metadata/UI is a file called BaseColor .. you can change them there.

Added this to the Paths

Is it possible to change where the buffs/debuffs icons appear? Like move from the top left to the center above EXP bar

also, will this get people banned?

I think just to move the position is possible , you can get banned because it's against their terms of use but I don't think that they detect that and I think they won't ban you because of moving the position.

Hey I wanted to correct my reply that you put in the "Paths" and add a new one I am using..
The file name to change the color of rares and uniques etc, is MetaData/UI/named_colours.txt
Here are the values I use
----
uniqueitem rgb(0,255,0) ----> bright green
rareitem rgb(255,0,255) ----> pink
----
Also, another useful edit is to remove client side the fact you can't stand on top of another toon. I find this useful when I am using ISBoxer to help re-sync my chars..sometimes I can get it to look like just one char running around..
Metadata/Characters/character.ot
----
Under "Positioning" change to "blocking = false"
----
I went ahead and added "blocking = false" to all the .ot files under ../Characters (ie dex/int, dex,str.etc) which pertain to individual classes but I am not sure you have to do that. If you find you can't stack them after changing the character.ot file then you will have to change all the ones for the classes you play.

Cool , I will add that as fast as possible
