Hello!!!
i've seen some EVE online videos where after you lock a guy(another player) you see his name with orange for example,ship type,velocity etc...(Probably customizable,and no,not on the overview,on your screen for ex like when you are looking at his ship) and i've searched this forum trying to find out how do i make my own game to show that but i found nothing.Also none of my friends knew how to do it.
Anyone has any idea on how can I see those thingies?
Thanks a lot and sorry if this is the wrong place to post in :)

Noooooooooooo :D
not the bio,on your screen,like when you pvp

Its when you target someone,like lock and then click him,you see his name and corp ticker usually,
some people also add the ship type there somehow,change colors,size of the text etc..
thats what i meant :)

It is done with a tool that modifies some files on your harddrive.

See the forum section EVE Technology Lab.

And threads like:

☣ Client Manipulation: Overview Settings - Pre-Packaged Overviews! ☣.
☣ Client Manipulation: Master Client Settings - Global Between Alts ☣
☣ Client Manipulation: Overview Settings - Color Coding and More! ☣
☣ Client Manipulation: Master Client Settings - Pre-Packaged Settings Files ☣

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

I make labels with a label gun and stick em on my monitor... Usually only good for a few seconds though...

You need to fiddle with your overview XML files, here's one video guide:

Magnets work better than stickers, you can slide them around as the ships move.

SHIFT+Click is the combo for overloading a module!
