DISCLAIMER: THIS OVERVIEW IS TAILORED TOWARDS EXPLORATION, IT WILL PERFORM WELL IN OTHER SCENARIOS SUCH AS PVE OR PVP BUT DOES NOT FEATURE AS MANY PRESETS AS SOME OF THE MORE SPECIALIZED OVERVIEWS AVAILABLE ELSEWHERE! THIS OVERVIEW PACK IS MEANT AS A LIGHT, USER-FRIENDLY, NO-NONSENSE ALTERNATIVE FOR VETERANS AND NEWBROS ALIKE!
The Signal Cartel Overview Pack was created by Bernard Lachapelle.
General Instructions
But first, another disclaimer:
IMPORTANT: MAKE SURE TO EXPORT YOUR CURRENT OVERVIEW SETTINGS BEFORE DOING ANYTHING ELSE, OR YOU WILL LOSE YOUR OLD SETTINGS!
How to Export Your Current Overview Settings
(if the animated GIF does not load, please click here.)
How to Install The Signal Cartel Overview Pack
There are two main ways to install the overview:
Option 1: For the General Public
- Download the .yaml file at this location
- Copy the .yaml file into your Overview folder located at
C:\Users\YourUserName\Documents\EVE - Login to EVE Online
- Open your overview settings
- Go to 'Misc'
- Click import and select the Signal Cartel Overview
- Don't forget to tick 'Check All' before importing.
(if the animated GIF does not load, please click here.)
Option 2: For Signal Cartel Members Only
- Check Signal Cartel's description.
- Check the corporation bulletin.
- Check the welcome mail.
Layout and Presets
Now it's time to take a look at the preset tabs and discuss the scenarios in which they'll work best!
- Your overview should now look similar to this:
- to change the tab order, please click here
Note: Unless overruled by a specific preset (e.g: ">FRIENDS" or ">FOES"), all players will appear on all tabs, ensuring you can see spot potentially hostile players from any tab you might be on at the time.
Tab Overview
TRAVEL
- ">TRAVEL" PRESET & BRACKETS
- Rather self-explanatory, when you are moving about going from Point A to Point B and need quick access to stations, stargates, citadels, ... that's the tab you'll want to use.
EXPLORATION
- ">EXPLORATION" PRESET & BRACKETS
- Only the essential when out exploring, containers, the sun, wormholes and plenty of room to instantly spot anything that shouldn't be on grid with you. (be it NPCs or players)
COMBAT
- '">COMBAT" PRESET & BRACKETS
- Again, it's all in the name. Got something that needs fighting, this is the tab you need.
EVERYTHING ELSE
- Now that's where it gets interesting, this tab is the dedicated preset tab. Need to see wrecks? Load ">LOOT", fancy a bit of mining for the day? Load ">MINING", so on so forth.
Here is the list of all the presets that come with the overview:
- ">COLLIDABLES" - will display all nearby collidable items, useful when sneaking around a site with your cloak on.
- ">COMBAT" - should be loaded by default in the "COMBAT" tab, includes drones and fighters.
- ">COMBAT - DRONES" - combat variant without drones and fighters
- ">COMBAT + DRONES" - combat variant with drones but without fighters
- ">EXPLORATION" - should be loaded by default in the "EXPLORATION" tab.
- ">FOES" - will only show hostile players
- ">FRIENDS" - will show only friendly players
- ">GTFO" - displays just about anything you can warp to in your current system (the "F" stand stands for "Frick")
- ">LITERALLY EVERYTHING" - I don't think I need to explain that one.
- ">LOOT" - will show wrecks, cargo containers, MTUs, ... the loot stuff.
- ">MINING" - Rock & Stone, to the bone!
- ">TRAVEL" - should be loaded by default in the "TRAVEL" tab.
And here is how it all works!
(if the animated GIF does not load, please click here.)
Nice and easy, nothing confusing. If you ever need something specific for say abyssal running, just create a new preset with everything you need and plonk it in that tab, you'll get to enjoy all the features without having to mess with the tabs or anything!
If you ever want to tweak the already existing presets, please click here
Will This Overview Be Kept Up to Date?
Bernard Lachapelle has pledged to keep this overview up-to-date until otherwise noted.
Bernard states, "As long as I remain within Signal Cartel, I will ensure that this overview remains as up-to-date as it gets, no more funny business getting blapped by invisible triangles; and if I ever were to 'win EVE', I'm sure you can figure out how to do all that stuff on your own, it's not that hard!"
