Overview

Version 3.0 includes a visual redesign, a new central settings window, localization, and several new features and improvements.

New Features

  • Price Tracker - This tool allows you to continuously track/view the Highest Buy Order and Lowest Sell Listings for items without having to open the Trading Post window or visit a separate website. It includes various sort options and a basic historical data graph for viewing the change in prices for an item.
  • Tasks Tracker - The Tasks Tracker is a new tool for keeping track of your own personal in-game tasks. Tasks can include anything from daily crafting to gathering nodes, and include customization of icon, name, description, daily reset, and location. Tasks are stored in xml format and can be exported or loaded in order to share with others.
  • Dungeon Timer - The Dungeon Timer is a tool that is designed to help time your dungeon runs. While not designed to be a timer for "official" speed runs, it can be used for practice or as a tool to challenge yourself. Alternatively, you can use the timer to time anything else.
  • Updated Visual Design - Designed to be less of an obstruction and to get out of the way of the game, this version includes a redesigned visual style. Overlay windows have been condensed and no longer include an opaque background. Additionally, a new setting is available to automatically show/hide window borders, further reducing the visual obstruction of the overlay.
  • New Settings Window - A new settings window has been added to the application to support more complicated customization with additional settings for each tool. This includes General Settings, Hotkey Customization, Event Tracker/Notification Settings, Dungeon Tracker/Timer Settings, Price Tracker/Notification Settings, and WvW Tracker/Notification Settings.
  • Hotkeys - Hotkeys are now available for opening/closing each overlay window and for toggling various settings, such as the non-interactive windows option. You can even toggle display of all overlay windows with a single hotkey.
  • Localization - Configured via the new Settings window, the Personal Assistant Overlay is now available in English, French, German, and Spanish. Thanks go out to Vacendak for German translations and a huge thanks to Shawni Roux for the French.

Updates and Improvements

  • Events Tracker
    • Added new Auto Completion Detection feature. Based on location information retrieved via the Mumble interface, if an event is detected as Active and you are at the event when this option is enabled, the world boss event will automatically be marked as completed for you.
    • Added new "shift+click" feature to quickly copy information about world boss events, including waypoint code and time until the event is active.
  • Event Notifications
    • Added options to configure the notification time for each individual event. For example, you can now configure the Event Notifications to show a notification 20 minutes before Tequatl starts instead of 1 minute before.
    • Added option to configure how long notifications are shown.
  • Dungeon Tracker
    • Added new Auto Completion Detection feature. Based on location information retrieved via the Mumble interface, if enabled, dungeons are automatically detected as completed at the end of the dungeon path.
  • WvW Tracker
    • Added new sorting options to sort objectives by Type, Name, Owner, Location, and Distance.
    • Added new "shift+click" feature to quickly copy information about an objective, including owner and RI timer information.
  • WvW Notifications
    • Added additional options to further customize what notifications are shown. In addition to the previous options, you can now configure notifications based on objective type, map, and based on who captured the objective from what world.
    • WvW notification backgrounds now match the map that the capture event occured on.
    • Added option to configure how long notifications are shown.
  • Trading Post Notifications

    • Added ability to view a list of clients in the same channel.
    • Refactored the visual style of text messages such that they now match the text of the in-game chat.
    • Replaced the various chat/enter/exit icons with new, improved versions.
    • Fixed several stability issues.
  • Web Browser
    • Added new Bookmarks feature to allow a user to add/remove bookmarks.
