Third party software , need more clarification
|
Hello :)
Im trying to understand what is legal or not in this game. Path of exile is a really complex game. Let me explain my concern. Im watching twitch, youtube etc.. they are using logout macro, trade macro, price software and filter. Also on this forum (poe official forum, we have info about alternative filter, software like awakened poe etc..) Im playing standard, so a ban for me is really bad and i try to avoid it but at the same time if something is legal, i want to use it. I dont find a clear answer anywhere and i find it disturbing. If its illegal, why those info are on officiel poe forum, i can easily find info about third party software ? How can i know something is consider illegal ? while something is ok ? From what i understand, having a program to calculate price is wrong, to help trading, macro etc.., but having a special filter is ok? I think it need clarification from GGG no? caus having those info on forum and also on youtube/twitch make alot of confusion. If on this top website it said : All third party software are illegal, using them at your own risk. follow this link with an exemple of third party software Filter are legal and can be use , using generic filter and non buildin filter is legal.. ?

" Can you show mere where GGG states that 3 party software is allowed on their web site ? It does't count that "players" themself make threads on the forum about 3 party tools.... Basicly only 2 things is confirmed allowed from GGG --> 1. Item filters (offline or online). 2. Manual logout macro. There were also Yolo mouse but unsure how the status of that is now that GGG is offering it themself. Everything else can get your account banned. However I would advice you to contact GGG support directly about this because they don't reply publicly for requests like this on the forum... |

From what I understand, trade apps are ok to use as long as they don't fully automate the whole thing. Like you go sleep and the app still makes trade for you.
You can safely use awakened trade app or PoE overlay, or others if there's another one I don't know about, as long as it doesn't fully automate bot-like the whole trade as mentioned above. Last edited by Silverpelt#6095 on Feb 18, 2022, 11:08:29 AM

I didn't saw its allowed, maybee the reason is my bad english.
But i dont see any clear message thats its NOT ALLOWED. Im not here to caus trouble, mainley to understand what i can use and what i can't. and i think this underfull game will gain to make it clear. Combinaison of "not clear message" with poeple telling you to use those program on youtube, twitch, forum, wiki etc. Poeple told me that there a "wiki" for this game, then at this place, they put link about "good program" you should know for poe. https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/List_of_Path_of_Exile_related_applications https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2785363 May 26, 2021, 8:11:04 AM lot of reply ... talk about how to configure it ... why its still there if its not allow ?? why moderation allow it ? for me its confusing as hell no? https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3129523 ------------------------------------------------ Even this answer is not clear for me ... how is a third pary filter legal ? ------ Hey there, QYNGaming. In general, we do not encourage the creation or use of third-party tools because they provide advantages for players that use them. I'm afraid, due to the dynamics of our policies, we're unable to guarantee if a tool is allowed or would remain allowed in the future. I would recommend refraining from creating or using any program that automates gameplay or does more than one action with a keystroke or mouse click as well as anything that interacts with the game client to provide an advantage over other players or provide information that isn't normally visible. |

" it's super simple so let me explain it this way --> So I make a good price checking, show it to GGG that post publicly that it's allowed. I then update it with functions that is not allowed and people start getting banned. Now these people will be very upset because why did they get banned from using a tool GGG told was ok. This is why GGG will NOT confirm or deny if a 3 party program is allowed or not. The only time we came close to this, was when a player make a small PoE defrag program to shrink files that got very big with lots of empty space in them. He then presented it to GGG that publicly told him that he did a very good job and that tool was safe to use to shrink your PoE files...... |

Thanks for the clarification, really appreciate :)
What is consider a third party software in that poe case ? I mean, using a website to create a filter ... it modify what is show on the screen, is not technically legit too? Its a little obscur for me why they dont put more moderation into what is post in forum if its not allow in game. Thats just my thought :) |

" well yes, because GGG made the ITEM filter system to be used like that --> both online and offline. Last edited by HanSoloDK#4843 on Feb 18, 2022, 3:39:41 PM
