This will hide all Spears except those with 6 sockets. So show 6 socket spears on Line 1 and hide all spears on Line 2. In this example, you would change their location within the file. One of the many strengths of Diablo II has always been its multitude of different item options, and the number of items. Besides advancing the story, much of the game focuses and revolves around finding better and better items to equip your character with. They are the driving force of Diablo II more than anything else. This means if on the first line of your item filter you choose to hide all Spears but then on Line 2 you choose to show Spears with 6 sockets then the result is no spear will ever show. Items are in-game objects that characters can carry in their inventory. The higher the rule in your filter file, the higher priority it will have. This tells the game to display Antidote potions as nothing, which hides the item. So for example if you want to hide Antidote potions (yps) you would type: ItemDisplay: When you want to hide an item, you simply leave the space behind the colon (:) empty.

The same thing can be done to show the item level Hiding Items If you want to show the selling price of an item using a dollar sign ($100) as a prefix you would type: ItemDisplay: ($%PRICE%) Choking Gas Potion Sometimes you want to call upon a value in the game to show the player. For example if you want the word 'Horadric' to be yellow and 'Cube' to be purple you would type: ItemDisplay: %YELLOW%Horadric %PURPLE%Cube Value References You can also use multiple colors within a single item. white is standard, blue is magic, yellow is rare, green is a set item (which you know) and gold is a unique item, which might look totally different to its standard version (as might a set item). If you would like to change the color of the Horadric Cube to purple then you would type: ItemDisplay: %PURPLE%Horadric Cube You can also change the color of the item name using color codes. If you want to remember which boss drops which uber key then you would type: ItemDisplay: Key of Terror (Countess) Color Codes If you would like to rename 'Scroll of Town Portal' to a much shorter 'TP' then you would type: ItemDisplay: TP
