D2stats Reader Dropfilter Editing

[Traphomet]

Hey, is it easy/possible/against the rules to edit dropfilter.dll to change what is shown?

It's easy if you are familiar with C/C++. You can use the source code from MXL Utility, Slashdiablo BH or D2BS to get some valuable information about D2 structures, function pointers, variable pointers, etc. Phrozen keep and Blizzhackers are also a good source of information. I guess that's not prohibited if you are doing it for yourself, but if you decided to distribute your advanced drop filter it's better if you ask MXL devs before.

Thanks for your reply. I'm about as savvy with these things as a shoe, so with it seeming as tough as it is, I'm just going to opt for playing more Median
Once again, thanks for this information, since it lets me know that such a filter is beyond my skillset and patience

Actually it's not that bad if you only want to modify the list of showing items and add a few new rules. Just compare the source code of Whist's and Kyromyr's drop filters and read about D2 structures, that would be more than enough.

Well, if you say so, I suppose I'll at least give it a look. Where might I find Whist's and Kyromyr's filters?

Editing the source code of a drop filter is simple
Here is some information:
1.Hide rare jewel(or any other item) use this:

► Show Spoiler

if (dwQuality == 6 && (dwCode == 'jew ')) //dwQuality is what quality of item we want to hide
here is the list:
;1 -> Low Quality
;2 -> Normal
;3 -> Superior
;4 -> Magic
;5 -> Set
;6 -> Rare
;7 -> Unique
;8 -> Crafted
;9 -> Honorific

Dwcode is responsible for items code(Remember all codes in diablo has 4 character most codes require a blank space at the end)

2.Hide the item quality :

► Show Spoiler

DWORD dwQuality = pItem->pItemData->dwQuality;
//hide low quality and normal items
if (dwQuality == 1 || dwQuality == 2)
return FALSE;

3.Median 2017 item codes

If you have any questions just ask

Could we get banned If we edit by ourselves?
