things that are currently unsupported

external graphical filters (e.g. ReShade, GeForce Experience Filters, etc.)

  • the tool frequently uses screen-checks to adapt the omni-key's behavior

  • this usually doesn't work with most graphical filters, resulting in certain features not being accessible

  • if you want to use this tool, you'll have to disable filters


workarounds for special use-cases

using the tool with a different Windows user-account than the one currently logged in

  • the tool reads the PoE config-file to check which window-mode is currently in use

  • to make it read an alternative user's config-file, open the ini\config.ini file:

    • under the [settings] section, add & edit the following line with an alternative file-path: PoE config-file="X:\some file path\Path of Exile\production_Config.ini

potential fixes for various symptoms/errors

"unable to locate the appropriate interpreter to run this script"

  • make sure you have AutoHotkey v1.1.36 or newer installed on your system

  • AutoHotkey V2 is a completely separate branch, do not install that



omni-key doesn't work correctly
screen flashes when pressing omni-key
screen-check testing always returns negative

  • if you're running Windows 11, switch to DX12 in game


"error at line X"

  • solution 1:

    • make sure to correctly extract the tool from the ZIP-file
  • solution 2:

    • update your AutoHotkey installation
    • don't install v2 of AutoHotkey


"The game-client is set to exclusive fullscreen. Please set it to windowed fullscreen."

  • solution 1:

    • set the game to windowed mode, click save
    • set the game to windowed fullscreen mode, click save
    • restart the script
  • solution 2:

    • open the Production_config.ini file (in the same folder as loot-filters)
    • edit these lines to: fullscreen=false and borderless_windowed_fullscreen=true
    • save the file, restart the script


"write-permission issues"

  • use the write-permissions test in the general section of the settings menu to troubleshoot this issue after:
    • clicking restart as admin
    • moving the script-folder to a different location


omni-key on items doesn't work correctly

  • if the in-game action show advanced item descriptions is not bound to ALT, you'll have to configure the omni-key in the hotkeys section of the script-settings


pressing the omni-key to use a skill also triggers something else in game

  • if something other than character screen is bound to C, you'll have to configure the omni-key in the hotkeys section of the script-settings


"resolution is not supported"

  • due to compatibility, vertical resolution support is limited to 2160p, 1800p, 1600p, 1440p, 1200p, 1080p, 900p, 720p

  • you can force a custom resolution in the general section of the settings menu (choose whichever vertical resolution is closest to the desired one)



variable refresh-rate (G-Sync, FreeSync) doesn't work
game locks its FPS to half the native refresh-rate

  • VRR will not work as long as any overlay is on screen because they are basically separate windows on top of the game-client

    • EDIT: from my testing, this can be fixed by running the game in a non-maximized window (i.e. windowed mode or custom resolution) and setting up your driver to apply VRR in windowed mode
  • I will reduce the number of overlays that are permanently active as much as I can on a release-by-release basis

  • to fix the FPS lock, disable Vsync both in game and in the PoE profile in your graphics driver
