I tried to modify the settings in order to see on that tab only drones and the sun, i deselected some tabs in filters but it doesn't work. Any suggestions please?
Open overview settings. Filters. Select Battle Drones filter. Deselect All Celestial -> Sun Rightclick Drone tab -> Select All Save current filter as 'Drones and Sun' In Overview Tabs select 'Drones and Sun' as Overview Profile. Apply
Only (enemy) Drones and the sun should show in that overview tab.
If you want to see all drones, before saving go to states and select all the Pilot is bla options.

Where is the Mining tab you talked about? I've just downloaded and imported the inferno version, which presumably is the latest one, and I thought there'd be a mining tab, but there isn't.
Is there a limit allowing no more than 5 Overview tabs?
If not, I suggest a couple more tabs added:
Fast Travel shows only stargates and the sun (because sometimes you may want to warp to the sun). That's to reduce the Overview clutter to an absolute minimum

You can't have more than 5 tabs, you need to switch the overview profiles on the desired tab and if you crave to modify the label, it can be done via the overview settings. The inferno settings might be the latest but CCP has already added salvages drones to the overview and it's not selected by default in Louis' settings, so it's somewhat ready to use, but you still have to do some tinkering at times to adjust the settings to your own taste.

There are mining filters which you can assign to any overview tab. The default filters under the 'travel' tab are indeed a bit cluttered in some instances like when a system has very many stations. I will include a 'fast travel' in the next release. There are 'friendly ships' filters included, but as I explained it has not been possible to exclude neutrals from them for 2 years now.

I did not realize that was already on Tranquility ? *Checks* You are right You can't actually buy them yet ofc Quess they are playing with it in Jove space. I will make another update after the next release comes out and all CCP changes are final as it is a lot of work. If I can find the time I will also try to make a first 'advanced' one with colour coded overview text.

I'd like a mission label, which shows mission rats as well as jetcans, because in many missions, the item you have to retrieve is jettisoned in a can when you kill the relevant rat ship.
Either the mission label should also show the kind of structure that you sometimes have to destroy (drone bunker, repair station, whatever), or else there should be a separate label to make that visible along with the usual mission stuff, because it's irrelevant for many missions.

You make good points. I recently did some missions again and spend some time looking for the mission objectives myself I will look into this very soon. FIRE FRIENDSHIP TORPEDOES ! Louis's epic skill guide v1.1 |

Hey Louis,
First off - great job and many thanks. Recently came back to EVE after about a 2 year hiatus (and losing all my old settings), so your setup has been a great help.
Would it be possible for you to upload updated screenshots of the overview settings, to account for the recent new additions?

For what it is worth, my recommendations for post-Retribution:
* No icons flash. * Flashing red background = immediate threat (war target, faction war target, limited engagement) * Flashing yellow background = no immediate threat but you can shoot (criminal, suspect) * Flashing orange background = no immediate threat but you can shoot in hisec (-5 standing) * Orange background + orange target icon = no immediate threat but you can shoot if you activate kill right * Dark Blue or Light Blue background = friendly (alliance, same faction, allies, excellent standing, good standing)

The overview settings have been updated and replaced by the Retribution version
Salpad asked to see mission items in missions. This has been added to battle pve filter. Some mission objectives might still not be visible, use the select all filter under default to find them. This is due to some mission objectives structures being in the 'random crap' categories which I don't show normally. He also asked for a 'fast travel' filter. This is the new travel fast highsec filter. If you use this outside of highsec you will die guaranteed. Only gates and the sun will be shown.
There are no perfect overview settings and mine are different than Tau Cabalander. Mine are not necessarily better and I've studied his for inspiration. A lot of this is personal preference but I have also striven to make the settings as simple to understand as possible, i.e. RED : You SHOULD shoot them everywhere as they will be or already are shooting at you. ORANGE : You CAN shoot them everywhere, but expect to be shot in return. YELLOW : DO NOT SHOOT THEM IN HIGHSEC OR CONCORD WILL KILL YOU. Expect sentry gun agression when you shoot them in lowsec. Kill them if you can tough.
I've tested this but as usual there are no guarantees that I've not made any mistakes. If you find glaring errors please let me know. The POS filters have not been tested but they should be ok.

Thanks for this Louis!
I made a few minor modifications but this was a priceless starting point for a new player to have an actually functional and useful overview.
One question though, what is the purpose of the "tag" column on the OV?? It's always blank. |

Glad you like it :) If you are in a fleet a fleet commander can tag things. It can be usefull especially when fighting many NPCs with the same name. Most FCs will use the broadcast system tough (from which you can also lock targets) so the tagging system is rarely used. |

Thanks for the file. However I have never been able to figure out what the difference is between a view that includes brackets and a view that doesn't.
Can you please explain what exactly brackets do to the overviewer. Thanks

Brackets are the representation of an element on the grid your ship is in, it's the term used to describe all the symbols floating around your own ship. The overview window has 2 different uses:
- Listing in a table the elements surrounding you,
- Displaying them on your screen.
When you configure an overview tab, there's a settings where you assign an overview conf and a bracket conf for a tab. That way you can display a restricted list of elements on the overview to reduce cluttering but still show important things in-space.

I can't explain it better than Sin Pew but sometimes a picture helps.
Used my finest paint skills
So the Brackets I see there are determined by the filter that I selected in the Bracket Profile for the Battle tab (that is the tab that is currently selected in the overview). What I see in the Overview is determined by the filter I selected in the Overview Profile for the Battle tab. The filters are set in the Overview Tabs tab in the Overview Settings menu.
P.S. This is an old screenshot using older version of these settings on the test server. |

You sir are really awesome and your overview settings are the best!
But will you be updating it to Retribution 1.1 and future expansions? I know Retribution 1.1 additions are very minor (just add Attack BC's) but I find it difficult to go through all the separate tabs by myself. |

Hey Louis!
I haven't checked your settings, shame on me, but I thought I'd mention that I've set agents in space to flashing blue background instead of black (I have to update the image I posted a few messages back).
I was doing Blood-Stained Stars the other day and noticed that an agent's bracket was right on top of another bracket, so a complete rookie wouldn't have seen him hiding there with my old settings.
Flashing blue goes along with my scheme: flashing = something you need to pay attention to, and blue = friendly. |
