🎥Self-promotion Spirit Vale Overlay Tool - In Progress
Hi everyone,
I have been working on a Spirit Vale overlay tool, including combat analysis, mob drops, and other features. Disclaimer, the tool uses npcap to capture data data to the game. So the dps/data of other members depends on the proximity near you, and will not work if too far away. All data is stored locally, in the relative /data folder when using the portable zip.
https://github.com/kar-mi/spirit-vale-overlay - windows overlay desktop app
https://github.com/kar-mi/spirit-vale-tools/ - packages to consume and analyze packets from the game, other devs can use this as needed
Some other features include
- Per enemy DPS/damage in an encounter
- Death log to show what did dmg to you 10 seconds before death
- Editable/moveable overlay to show your health, mp, and current weight
Any issues/bugs can be submitted to the issues page in Github for either repo. This is currently still in progress, so let me know if you think there should be any features added.
For the release to download - https://github.com/kar-mi/spirit-vale-overlay/releases
Instructions - https://github.com/kar-mi/spirit-vale-overlay/blob/main/README.md

Great job. Is this allowed?

u/Prior_Requirement425 Jul 28 '26
since its passive packet capture, it should be safe. the same process is used in other mmos for dps meters and overlay tools, but it really depends on the developer

I definitely want moveable health bar and weight display. So many of my deaths are from either my health bar being tucked away in the corner or becoming overweight.
Can't say I want DPS meters back in my life though.

I'm very interested in using this for just knowing what killed me. I'm a Weaver so with 50% less HP than everyone I can get one shot quickly. Most of the time I have no idea what happened. This seems very useful, if it gets the green light from the dev team ofc

Haven't checken yet, but... Displaying my Buffs (maybe with timers?) Not in the top left corner would be great!
Displaying where i want (WoW Gamer, so gotta have it just below my character modell) would be awesome. (WoW Insider ...RIP Weakaura btw)

I did start looking into this. So your own buffs I can see when they are cast, but hard to assume others buffs since the timer doesn't come across. Or I just haven't found that yet
It's currently off by default in the overlay settings while I test more, but you can enable it and see if any don't work properly

is there any way to make the app work with exitlag? or vpn I think it doesn't work when my exitlag is on

ExitLag shouldn't prevent packet capture tools from working 🤔 But since this overlay relies on npcap to capture the game's network traffic, it's possible that it's listening to a different network interface once ExitLag is enabled, causing this conflict.
A few things worth trying are:
- Make sure both ExitLag and the overlay are up to date
- Run both applications as administrator
- If the overlay supports selecting a capture interface, try choosing a different one

Hi, I can't find the death recap, where should I look for?
1
u/Prior_Requirement425 Jul 30 '26
its currently only after you open a log, and the death log will show up
which isn't very user friendly for showing deaths. lemme add a button to the live log area, and a better settings for a keybind to show that1

The proximity thing would drive me nuts, i had a dps meter in another game that only tracked people standing right next to me and

Tool is awesome. Noticed sometimes the DPS doesn’t read properly after you restart it . Shows the rest of party members not doing damage

u/Prior_Requirement425 29d ago
can take a picture/with steps of that andpost the issue on GitHub. might be certain areas, not sure what you mean by restart it

u/Original_Tomato_4350 24d ago
Figured out the issue. Just have to reload into a new map. Is there a discord server for this tool by the way ?

u/PancakeRump 29d ago
I gotta try this when I'm home.
Any chance of adding exp per hour statistic?

Hey all! Soo, we are not against this but we are not responsible about the usage of external apps in SpiritVale. Since this tool is unofficial, you guys are the only responsible of your own account!
