Brother Benthor FinFleet IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.03.15 00:34:00 - [1] Edited by: Brother Benthor on 15/03/2010 00:46:21 I have been doing this overview for the past year (since overview settings export are allowed) for the Finfleet Corporation / IT Alliance, but I decided to make it public to the community, so feel free to download and use as you see fit: The Overview is divided the following way: Mining (M): (Includes Minerals by this levels and hostiles) PVE - M - All PVE - M - HIGH PVE - M - MEDIUM PVE - M - LOW PVE - M - ICE Ratting (R): (Includes Ratting by this levels and hostiles) PVE - R - PLEX (includes destructible turrets and structures) PVE - R - BELTS Drones (D): (Includes either all non-fighters or all fighters) PVP - D - ALL PVP - D - FIGHT Empire (E): (Will remove all neutrals, and set only @ war with targets) PVP - E - ALL Friendly (F): (Will show only friendlies of the types specified) PVP - F - ALL PVP - F - CAPITALS PVP - F - BS PVP - F - DICTORS PVP - F - SUPPORT PVP - F - H.SUPPORT PVP - F - L.SUPPORT PVP - F - LOGISTICS Hostile (H): (Will show only hostiles of the types specified) PVP - H - ALL PVP - H - CAPITALS PVP - H - BS PVP - H - BC PVP - H - CRUISERS PVP - H - FRIGATES PVP - H - DICTORS PVP - H - SUPPORT PVP - H - H.SUPPORT PVP - H - L.SUPPORT PVP - H - LOGISTICS PVP - H - NONE POS (P): (Will show only player owned structures of the types specified) PVP - P - ALL PVP - P - EW PVP - P - EXTRAS PVP - P - GUNS PVP - P - RES Wrecks (W): (this is still beeing worked on, I don't have it exactly as I need it) PVP - W - ALL PVP - W - HOSTILES PVP - W - NON-ALLIED All overview settings also include: Sun Gates Stations Warp Gates Wormholes TCU Cyno Beacons HOW TO INSTALL: 1. Download the latest version here 2. Unzip the file 3. Copy the file to your User -> Documents -> EVE -> Overview folder 4. If the "Overview" folder doesn't exist, create one: "Overview" (capital O) 5. In game go to Overview Settings on your overview window, and select the last option "Import Overview Settings" 6. Select the file you just copied and check all the "view options" 7. Press Import and voilß 8. Note: Every time you import a overview file, game will turn on "Show All Brackets" in all tabs, make sure you press the "Stop Showing all Brackets" when you select one of the new tabs (you only have to do this once per tab) I will keep this overview settings updated as much as I can. If you think this might make your life a bit easier, any donations will be appreciated, enjoy :)

Brother Benthor FinFleet IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.03.23 15:35:00 - [4] Originally by: Stafen One suggestion, would it be a good idea to make some overview settings which work well as brackets only and some as regular overviews only. For example is is sometimes useful to have drones on your brackets so you know who they are attacking, but having them in your overview would clutter things too much. Same for things like asteroid belts and moons. Another useful overview setting I found is one with forcefields, control towers, jumpbridges and moons only. It's useful when trying to scan down a POS quickly. Thanks again. I have the same problem, and I keep using the ALT+Z and ALT+X shortcuts to show my drones in space, without flooding my Overview Window. But the problem here is that you cannot set a bracket view for every single filter you got, only for the 5 tabs displayed, so until CCP fix this little problem I am not sure how I can fix this in a single overview file. About the POS scan, that is a very good suggestion, will add a POS - Scan on my next update. In the meanwhile I would suggest using what I do atm: 1 Tab : PVP - H - All (adding moons manually to it while scanning); 2 Tab : PVP - POS - All Use the 1st Tab with moons to warp arround (as all my views show Control Towers by default), and the 2nd Tab to see the actual full setup of the POS.

I guess I was just suggesting making a few overview filters which are designed to be used as the filters for the brackets for each of the tabs. Could tailor them to high/low lag environments etc. got it :) Will add a new category called Filter to use for Brackets only. You will still be able to use the ones atm or use this "Filter" types as brackets ps: posted with the wrong **** above
Brother Benthor FinFleet IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.04.16 21:30:00 - [6] Originally by: Nazlia Menios Curious how you and or others have their overview colors and backgrounds setup. Any chance of a screen cap of those two tabs? Purple for Fleet, Light Blue for Corp (so I can see them in space when in Alliance ops) Dark Blue for Alliance (star) and Positive Standing (plus) Red for @ War (star) and Negative Standing (minus) Orange for all Neutrals Red Background for the Empire War Targets
Brother Benthor FinFleet IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.04.16 21:45:00 - [7] Originally by: Eelora would it be possible to post a couple of pics of the tabs? Just wanted to see it before i go changing everything. thanks Sure, I will take a couple to post here.
Brother Benthor FinFleet IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.11.30 00:38:00 - [8] I will be posting a new version this weekend after the new patch is deployed!
