Hey guys, I have tried a few suggested overview packs such as Sarahs but I have found issues with hers such as NONE Show wrecks / containers etc eve nthe pve tabs and since im usally hi-sec or low-sec issues with attackable targets, i have ended up in some bad situations with blinking HOSTILE that was not hostile 0.o haha.

I focus on this mostly.

Pve - Sec Missions ( Need pve usual stuff with wrecks/containers )
Pvp - FactionWars and Small Gang And solo pirate stuff ( Need PVP targets / allies etc with WRECKS ON )
And a few other nifty tabs would be nice.

If anyone has an overview suggestion or even your own that has a nice color setup / really overall easy and functional and stuff I would appreciate if you could upload it for me , or point me in a direction of one that is nice. THanks guys !!!!

And this is what we call lazy...

Make your own overview.

If you don't know how...search for guides and just try stuff.

The worst thing that can happen is that you have to go back to the default one and start over.

^this.

It's not that hard, yes it takes a little bit of work, but you only need to do it ONCE. if you save it all properly you can just load whatever you need, when you need it!

FYI, the color tag and background settings are not even saved in the XML config file for overviews, so you can not import them anyway. If you want to contact me on skype at pilot_wpe I can walk you through how to set it up though (with a screen capture of all the settings and configs) and send you the xml config for the filter states I use.

PS, the background and color tag settings being incorrect is likely why you had a bug with people showing up as a state that they should not have.
