v2.5.6 - Linux: price check in one press

Choose a tag to compare

@DrewBatcheller DrewBatcheller released this 28 Jul 11:40

Linux only. Nothing changes on Windows - every fix here sits behind a platform check.

  • Price check works on one press again, if you have xdotool installed. The app drives the game's copy through xdotool, which does reach it - unlike the input library the app uses everywhere else, which can't read the keyboard under XWayland and sends mistranslated keys. Without xdotool it still falls back to whatever you copied yourself.
  • Fixed: hiding the overlay took three seconds. That was the new window-focus code shelling out and blocking everything while it waited. My fault, introduced in 2.5.5.
  • Stash capture asks to share your screen once per launch and reads frames from that. Screen capture on a Wayland desktop has to go through the system's own share dialog; the shortcut around it returned a black picture, which is why calibration showed a black screen and F7 read nothing.

v2.5.5 - Linux batch

@DrewBatcheller DrewBatcheller released this 28 Jul 10:24

Linux only. Nothing changes on Windows - every fix here sits behind a platform check.

  • Esc hides the overlay without clicking it first. It was a keypress handled inside the window, and the window never holds keyboard focus on X11.
  • Install xdotool and the app can see which window is active and raise the game itself. Command hotkeys use it, so /hideout stops firing into whatever window you happen to be in. Without xdotool, nothing changes.
  • Stash capture (F7) gets a shot. The launcher now presents an X11 session to the app, which should put screen capture on the X11 path instead of the portal that can't show its dialog behind a fullscreen game. Untested - tell me if it comes back black.
  • Non-English client? Set gameWindowMatch in the config file to your window title.

v2.5.4 - Linux fixes, take two

Choose a tag to compare

@DrewBatcheller DrewBatcheller released this 28 Jul 10:12

Linux only. Nothing changes on Windows - every fix here sits behind a platform check.

  • You no longer need --ozone-platform=x11. The flag is baked into the packaged launcher itself. 2.5.3 claimed this and was wrong: the flag has to be on the real command line, and neither way the app tried to put it there actually reached it. Appending the switch in code only covers the browser process, so the GPU process still starts against Wayland and segfaults, which is why every hotkey then reported a false "taken by another app".
  • The price-check hotkey falls back to your clipboard. If the app can't drive the game's copy - it can't on a GNOME Wayland session, where libuiohook fails to read the keyboard and sends mistranslated keycodes - press Ctrl+C in game yourself, then the hotkey, and it prices what you copied.
  • Command hotkeys like /hideout fire again. They were asking "is the game focused", a question with no answer outside Windows, and treating no-answer as no.

Still not working on Linux: stash capture (F7). GNOME routes screen capture through the desktop portal regardless of the X11 backend, and that needs a dialog you can't reach behind a fullscreen game. It fails with an error after 8 seconds instead of hanging.

v2.5.3 - Linux fixes

Choose a tag to compare

@DrewBatcheller DrewBatcheller released this 28 Jul 08:54

Linux only. Nothing changes on Windows - every fix here sits behind a platform check.

  • CORRECTION: this build tries to force the X11 backend flag at launch and that attempt does NOT work. Keep passing --ozone-platform=x11 yourself on 2.5.3. Without it the GPU process segfaults and no hotkey registers at all, reporting a false "taken by another app".
  • The hide button actually hides the overlay. It was only turning it transparent, which does nothing without a compositor honouring it.
  • The overlay no longer appears at launch before you press the toggle (same cause).
  • Stash capture (F7) fails with an error after 8 seconds instead of sitting on "Scanning" forever. Capture on GNOME needs the desktop portal, which is separate work.
  • Update errors are logged instead of blocking the app behind an error dialog.

Still open on Linux: the price-check hotkey can't copy the item, because uiohook fails to initialise its keyboard mapping on at least some setups. Copy with Ctrl+C in game, click the overlay, paste with Ctrl+V.

v2.5.2 - Your feedback, shipped

Choose a tag to compare

@DrewBatcheller DrewBatcheller released this 28 Jul 06:01

Everything in this one came from the feedback form. Keep it coming.

  • Skill gems price check properly now. Gem level and quality drive the search, and a gem copied while socketed discounts your gear's +levels, so a level 20 gem searches as 20 instead of 32.
  • Suggested floor shows the other currencies too. 0.7 div now also reads in exalted and chaos, so you don't need the exchange rate memorized.
  • Currency buckets collapse with the chevron in their header, and you can drag whole cards into the order you want. A collapsed bucket still shows its cheapest payment.
  • Fixed: clicking Search, or another filter box, straight out of a filter field took two clicks.
  • Fixed: long prices overlapped the item name in the results list.

v2.5.1 - Tutorial covers the new tabs

Choose a tag to compare

@DrewBatcheller DrewBatcheller released this 28 Jul 04:58

Small one: the tutorial now covers the tabs 2.5.0 added.

  • The tutorial spotlights Net Worth, Regex and Grand Expedition, offered right after the Price Check + Desecrate run
  • Each of them has its own Replay chip in Settings → Help & About, so you can revisit one tab instead of the whole tour
  • Regex and Grand Expedition spotlight a demo build and a demo roster, so you see a real pattern and a real verdict instead of empty boxes. Your own picks come back when the tour ends
  • Command Hotkeys got a mention in the tutorial's Settings step

v2.4.1 - Hotfix (2.4.0 launch crash)

Choose a tag to compare

@DrewBatcheller DrewBatcheller released this 27 Jul 07:38

Hotfix - 2.4.0 launch crash

2.4.0 shipped with a packaging bug that left a data file out of the build, so it failed to launch with a "Cannot find module './cx-catalog.json'" error. Fixed.

If you installed 2.4.0: grab this installer and run it - it upgrades in place over the broken version and keeps your settings. No need to uninstall first.

Everything from 2.4.0 (the Net Worth stash auto-calculator) is here and working.

v2.3.5 - OpenDyslexic, Linux (experimental), Patch Notes

Choose a tag to compare

@DrewBatcheller DrewBatcheller released this 26 Jul 04:47

OpenDyslexic support, Linux (EXPERIMENTAL), Patch Notes Modal changes

  • Added OpenDyslexic, a dyslexia-friendly font. Toggle it on in Settings under the App section. Applies to the whole app.
  • Experimental Linux support (AppImage). It forces XWayland automatically, so the overlay, hotkey and item-copy work without you adding any command line flags. It's experimental - report anything that misbehaves.
  • The patch-notes popup now scrolls through the full history, with a version sidebar on the left. Click any version to jump to it.

Windows: POE2-Currency-Overlay-Setup.exe
Linux (experimental): POE2-Currency-Overlay.AppImage

v2.3.4 - API Rates & Small QoL Fixes

Choose a tag to compare

@DrewBatcheller DrewBatcheller released this 26 Jul 03:47

API Rates & Small QoL Fixes

  • Fixed API problems, which in some cases was causing artificial (local only) timeouts. Removed entirely. Any timeout you get is now real. Don't spam!
  • Listings now paginate at 10 and you can load more. This further improves API usage rates.
  • Currency API rate handling - 2 new settings inside the Currency settings let you control the rate the app pings GGG for currency pairs. At HIGH it refreshes all primary pairs every 2.5m, and scales down from there. Slider 1 is how it polls while you're viewing the Currency tab; Slider 2 is how it polls while the app is backgrounded or the tab isn't selected. These calls use the same bucket as your item searches, so if you hit rate limits often while ctrl+F'ing gear, tune down Slider 2.
  • Exceptional bases were searching with runes turned on, which threw off the results. Cleaned that up so they search like the game does (quality 20, no runes, uncorrupted). Should match what you'd expect now.
  • Added patch notes that pop up after an update so you can see what I'm up to.
  • Added a way to re-read the patch notes any time from the App Settings.
  • Fixed small dyslexic toggle bug, now (should) accurately swap all instances of currency names on the price check tab.
  • Drag-to-reorder on Currency Tab, as well as drag out of bucket and drop to delete.
  • Add more than one currency to a bucket at a time.
  • Added support for some missed Verisium stuff.
  • Pagination applied to Desecration tab + PC tab.
  • App now remembers what tab you closed it on and opens to that tab.
  • Tutorial updated.
