[Tool] Grim Internals

Hi @GlockenGerda.

I found a way to add GI into steam (via non-steam game) but for Linux. Would you mind if you could add the technique under the “add GI to steam-library” section?

Technique:

  1. Fetching Grim Dawn launch Script.
    • Override launch options of Grim Dawn (vanilla) to “PROTON_DUMP_DEBUG_COMMANDS=1 %command%
    • Launch Grim dawn (don’t exit yet) and navigate to /tmp/proton_ folder.
    • Copy the run script in there to any location you like (now you may close Grim dawn after copy).
  2. Setting up launching via GI
    • Edit this run script’s DEF_CMD variable to point to Grim Internals exe you’ve extracted in Grim Dawn installation folder. [Same path, only executable file name will change]
    • Remove any trailing options in that variable.
    • Add env before the PATH variable of that run script
  3. Setting up GI desktop file
    • Make a copy of the Grim Dawn .desktop file in the same location with a different name (I use Grim Dawn+.desktop)
    • Use an absolute path to the edited run script as value of Exec.
  4. Adding GI to steam library
    • Go to Games -> Add non-steam game to library from steam UI.
    • Select the recently created .desktop file (Grim Dawn+.desktop in my case) and click on “Add selected programs”
  5. Migrating GD options to GI
    • Simply add the launch option overrides done for Grim Dawn to our non-steam game.

I just updated Grimdawn and Griminternals, but now i get:

grafik

Its missing some accesspoint/dll and if i press “ok” another window appears saying “cant find Grimdawn”.

All i did was updating Grimdawn per Steam and unzip the griminternal files into the grimdawn folder like before.

Another Question: Can i downgrade grim internals? V1.1.7.1 seems to be removed. Maybe someone can provide me with this version, so i can fix it for now? Would be much apreciated.

It looks like you have different versions of Grim Dawn.exe and Engine.dll installed.
I suggest to verify the game files through Steam.

Thanks for taking the time to wrote all the steps down!
I added it to my first post!

Exactly.

You can add AvgDamageMeasurement=xx to the GrimInternals.ini file under [Settings]
where xx (integer value) can go from 2 - 30.
But I don’t recommend to change it, because the display of how the average damage is presented is insufficient.

The default value of 5 secs is good enough to have a quick DPS comparison, imo.

For dps comparison over a longer period of time just measure dummy kill time :sunglasses:

@GlockenGerda Thanks a lot, verifying fixed it. Great Tool btw, can play the normal game speed anymore :wink: also auto loot is great!

ah while i am at it: the option to “only show double rare items” from GD itself has no effect on the “always pick up green items” from GrimInternals. Meaning, if “only show double rare” is selected but normal rares is not, GrimInternals still picks up every rare item even if they are hidden.

I mean it is only quality of life, just asking if there is a worthwhile solution to it.

I’m glad you fixed it!

Yeah, GI picks up all rare items even if they are hidden, because this feature was a user
request long time ago to make quick money (iron bits) by selling those items.
I left this feature in, although Crate increased the drop rate of iron bits in the meantime.

Is there a way to download Grim Internals for V1.1.7.1? I don’t want to update the game as I have custom mods installed that aren’t compatible. @GlockenGerda would you be so kind to provide a download link? Thanks.

I don’t keep old versions because every update of GI contains bug fixes and possibly code improvements.

What kind of mods could that be? V1.1.7.2 was only a hotfix.

Can i get some help, im a bit confused, was recomended this mod and as im trying to get it to work it keeps giving me “Grim Dawn not found” when steam is running and it is in the right folder.

even put it as a non-steam game

GI looks for a “x64” folder containing the Grim Dawn.exe file.
If it cannot be found, your above mentioned error message will be displayed.

When you start Grim Dawn, what version number is shown in the lower right corner of the main menu?

I recommend to verify your game files.

I believe im fully updated at v1.1.7.2
though the x64 might be my issue since i install my games on a separate sdd from my boot drive.
Is it worth saying it worked once, after that is gave me the message, i shall try verifying though thanks.

verifying did the trick, it found 1 file that needed reinstalling, and now it works wonderfully. Thank you for the advice, really appreciate it

Thank you; I wish you the same! :slight_smile:

GrimCam is a tool specially designed for Grim Dawn.
It is not possible to simply transfer its functionality to other games.

I’m not the author of GrimCam either.
That’s why I can’t help you with your request. Sorry!

Hey all,

Not sure if this is the right forum, but logging in yesterday roughly half of my equipped items and a ton of stashed items have disappeared off of my main (and only) character!

I’m using Grim Internals and GD Item Assistant. When I first started the game, the home screen background was completely black and after clicking start none of the background assets loaded save for stuff like barrels and tents. Upon exiting and logging back in, the above-mentioned items have now vanished.

Any help greatly appreciated!

I downloaded and installed the latest version of GDIA and tried to reproduce the problem but to no avail.

Hence my question to all GI users:
Have you ever experienced similar problems, did you also have items disappeared and if so, did you use GI alone or also used GDIA at the same time?
Also please state here whether you were using the Steam version and if Cloud Save was enabled or not when the problem occured.

The more information I get about this problem, the easier it could be to isolate the problem.
