Installing the EVE University Overview: Difference between revisions

There are three options for setting up your overview:

This option lets you click 3 links in the chat channel in-game to load the full E-UNI Overview with all presets.

3. (Optional) Join the '''<span style='color:aqua'>Overview.E-UNI</span>''' mailing list in game to receive messages when the E-UNI Overview is updated.

6. After this you should have the EVE University official overview installed; undock (as long as it's safe) and behold, you'll see your new Overview "in action". Please note that the Overview provided is as laid out on our [[Overview Guide]] for presets and global settings. We have provided the Overview Tab names as generic, but you are free to change the tab names to suit your own needs. All Overview tabs have "Show All Brackets" loaded by default. You may wish to load specific presets to be used for brackets in your tabs. If you have any problems ask the PO/SPO during your interview.

If you do not wish to download the overview pack and instead set up your overview manually, please follow our [[Overview Guide]] to set up your overview to EVE University standards. Some people prefer to set up the Overview manually, as it helps them to understand what all the buttons are for, but we do not mind which method you use.

These instructions are illustrated in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TY2scKcFnv4 - please note that with recent game updates this video may contain obsolete information

#In your overview settings, go to the '''Columns tab'''.  

#Make sure your overview is wide enough to easily see the information in all these columns.

#Go to the '''Ships tab'''.  

This removes irrelevant information - if you’re fighting against a Privateer, you want to know he’s in the Privateer Alliance, not which corp he’s in.  

#Go to the '''Misc Tab'''.  

#Check '''Move entries with broadcasts to top'''.

#Go to the '''Appearance tab''', and then the '''Colortag tab'''.  

     -o-animation-direction: alternate;

}

#Go into the '''Appearances tab''', then go to the '''Background tab'''.  

You have now set up all your general overview settings. It is a good idea to now export your work to [[#Saving_and_sharing_your_Overview_Profile|save a default EVE University overview]] (Misc Tab).  - we’ll move onto setting up individual presets now.  

#Go to your '''Tab Presets''' tab, and go to the '''States''' tab.  

'''Please note that this preset shows people with bad (orange minus) and horrible standing (red minus). These people CANNOT be attacked in high sec space. Only attack people flashing red (war targets), yellow (outlaws/criminals/suspects) or orange (in a limited engagement) on your overview.'''  

#In your '''Overview Settings''', in the '''Tab Presets''' tab , you should see '''"Preset in selected overview tab"''' with '''"(preset name) - not saved"''' just below with a '''Save''' button to the right. Please note that the save button is always available even once a preset is saved.

#You can also save a preset from the Overview itself by right clicking on the Overview tab and selecting '''"Save Current Selection Type As..."'''

#You can work from the saved preset '''"1 - PvP"''', or you can right click on an Overview tab and select "Load Preset to Tab" and select "1 - PvP".  

This preset is useful if you are being aggressed by drones and want to destroy them, or want to help out a fleetmate who is being attacked by drones.  

#You can work from the saved preset '''"1 - PvP"''', or you can right click on an Overview tab and select "Load Preset to Tab" and select "1 - PvP".  

Stations are not included because some systems have too many stations, which can clutter up the overview. Thus stations should be left unchecked. If you want to travel to a station, right click in empty space and just select the station from there.  

#You can work from the saved preset '''"2 - PvP Travel"''', or you can right click on an Overview tab and select "Load Preset to Tab" and select "2 - PvP Travel".  

Using this preset could prevent you from seeing neutral remote reppers that often need to be neuted, ecm jammed, and damped. It will also prevent you from seeing any pirates and other outlaws that have neutral status.  

#For setting up a missioning preset, you can load the '''Default > General''' preset, then run some missions. Remove things you don’t really need to see as you go - you can do this by right clicking on the item in the overview, then selecting '''Remove *item* from overview'''. Eventually you will have a preset that will suit your needs. Below are some suggestions on how to configure the mission preset.  

#In some missions the objectives have strange types, so you may want to load the '''Default > All''' preset. This can also help with cloaky ships who don't want to get within ~2000m of any objects.

#You can work from the saved preset '''"2 - PvP Travel"''', or you can right click on an Overview tab and select "Load Preset to Tab" and select "2 - PvP Travel".  

This is useful to loot the field after a PvP engagement. This preset is also useful after running a mission or combat site.  It is necessary to have all states selected to see all wrecks (except the '''Pilot is in your fleet''' state). Having fleetmates checked will clutter up your overview with your own fleet's ships.

A wormhole POS without a force field could possibly have been abandoned.
