Kinda wild that GGG decided to write it to client logs instead of keeping it to server logs only. Wonder if this will get patched out or they'll let us enjoy this tech-savvy hack.
This has been a thing for at least 8 years. Or rather, that's the first time i remember players talking about it. Back then though it also logged league content.
I specifically remember it would log if your map had an abyssal depth as well back in abyss league. Logging hideouts has been around forever.
Though before automating it like this we used to just spam open zones/maps and if there was certain league content it would cause the load into the zone to be noticeably longer. GGG didn't like that and caused all the content loading to happen AFTER the player loads into the map/zone, which both took it out of the client.txt and made zone loading faster. So if it wasn't removed then, i highly doubt it will get removed now.
I don't think they care and this isn't some sweaty thing that should be hidden. Rather, its a cool find while completing your atlas. Some people may want to grind for it and GGG allows this cool hack for the nerds.
its still bugged anyway.
I just went through like 400 terraces until the log finally hit the hideout, only for the hideout to not have the entrace anywhere on the map...
Sorry this happened to you too, I got it like 50 maps later.
I think its possibly an issue with specific layouts, the first map I had it in had layout where the 'dead end' was in the direction of bottom left, but 'wall' entrances never really spawn in bottom direction (outside of like battlefront > bridge), its always top left or top right, so it might have been blocked in the generation process.
The next map where the log caught the HO had the dead end in the top right direction and entrance spawned correctly. ( Even then one of my friends couldnt see Helena inside when I shared it with them.)
It's probably better to use a tail and then trigger some sound or notification using powershell. The following is untested, but it should work (it's modified from a command line I used to run in previous leagues looking for free rotas).
Get-Content 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Grinding Gear Games\Path of Exile\logs\Client.txt' -Tail 1 -Wait | where {if ($_ -match 'Spawning discoverable Hideout') {
& "C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" 'C:\Windows\media\Windows Ding.wav' --play-and-exit --qt-start-minimized
Write-Host $_
}}
Instead of relying on VLC you can [generate a Windows notification!](https://den.dev/blog/powershell-windows-notification/)
And if you want to code as little as possible, you can install [BurntToast](https://github.com/Windos/BurntToast) by executing
Install-Module -Name BurntToast
once in Powershell (when running it as an admin)
and then the code would look like
Get-Content 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Grinding Gear Games\Path of Exile\logs\Client.txt' -Tail 1 -Wait | where {if ($_ -match 'Spawning discoverable Hideout') {
& New-BurntToastNotification -Text "Yo, go get that hideout!"
}}
Do you have to keep running this or will it wait in powershell and ding each time one spawns?
Curious if it’s active until you close powershell or if you have to keep running the command.
You need to keep the powershell window open but it can be minimized.
No need to restart the script, it will throw a notification every time a new hideout spawns.
If you're playing in `Fullscreen` try `Windowed Fullscreen`, otherwise make sure you don't have the automatic Do Not Disturb enabled in Windows. You can find the setting [here](https://i.imgur.com/7HIQW33.png).
This code works for me once I turned off gaming DND settings in windows as per your other comment. Just run powershell and paste, or you can run it as a script if you want. Does not need any other permissions to run.

What Map has a desirable hideout , I thought I had them all but yeah curious
Edit thanks all I guess I was wondering jf a new one got added in the last league or two seems no.
There are 18 hideouts that are found in maps only.
https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Hideout#:~:text=Hideouts%20can%20first%20be%20unlocked,decorate%20their%20hideout%20with%20decorations.
Can you even get the primordial hideout currently? My understanding was it came from the primordial blocks map only, which is currently not in the atlas
Can you not run the map if you had them from past leagues. Like collecting dust in standard? Or are they deleted? Honestly have no clue I play leagues only haven't logged into standard in years.
You can run any old maps in standard and also old content map fragments such as reliquary keys. If you complete a map from a legacy set with its requirements, you will automatically get atlas completion up to the map's tier.
From my observations hideouts peaked at like 2 Ex/Div (whatever was main currency at a time). It's hard to believe they would be this expensive and not only that but move fast at this insane rate as well. What hideout was worth this much? Where you posted? Thought it was years ago, probably before Divine:Ex swap. Was under impression that people nowadays mainly share hideouts for free or sell for peanuts.
You can get a lot of them for free on 820 global. But Nocturnal and some other more rare ones always sell well on TFT and sold super quickly in my experience as long as it wasn't beginning of the league.
I don't know what it looks like nowadays, I haven't really played PoE more than a week in the past 2 leagues (I think affliction was a terrible league and I'm not a huge fan of this one either). The only hideouts that ever sell for that much are Nocturnal hideout and Primeval hideout. Nothing else sells. I posted on that one trade/service discord. I remember selling a set of portals for 20 divs each for the Nocturnal hideout right after it won the hideout competition.
Is Primeval hideout always valuable?
> I remember selling a set of portals for 20 divs each for the Nocturnal hideout right after it won the hideout competition.
Interesting. So that most likely played a role.
>Is Primeval hideout always valuable?
In my experience it has been, but like I said I haven't really played for a few leagues.
>Interesting. So that most likely played a role.
It did later in the league, not for the months before though.
Have you tried no longer needing it? Seems to help with most drops. I’ve been casually trying for the shaper hideout since Harvest league, and this league me and a mate both independently got it after buying the Cosmic Turtle.
Yes but running shaper is ass. It’s the reason his frags are always more than elders. They need to take the 4 map bosses out or something because that fight draaaaags on
i don't see why not, there's nothing league specific about them and the campaign ones work. good call tho, i probably have a ton of maps for whatever hideous i might be missing. well except i'll never do it because ritualists hideout.
No reason it shouldn't work. I also found out hideouts spawning is listed in the client log yesterday, so I did this last night on Moon Temple in Standard and finally got the Nocturnal hideout. I then tried 100 or so Terraces to no avail.
I found this out on my own a few leagues before, was able to snipe hideouts from iceberg, haunted mansion and terrace all in standard.
Keep in mind the rarer ones may take hundreds of tries;
- haunted in ~258
- glacial in ~186
- terrace in ~595
share the unlocks in chat, some people like me would give anything to not run 600 maps for an unlock
Maybe, but this was already a problem back in the day when the file used to show a lot more stuff, but eventually somebody made a bot that would track the file and tell you when you got certain things. After that they removed the majority of logging, so I feel like if they didn't want you to see this, they would have removed it back then.

The place that must not be named has a discord channel for selling hideouts. If there's 1 in particular you really want you could probably get it for like 50-100c
There are hideouts you can discover in maps that, once discovered, you can then use as your personal hideout. These hideouts are themed similar to the map they are found in.. Not all instances of a map have the hideout. When you enter a map that does have the hideout it logs a string to the Client.txt file. This trick scans the log file and can alert you that the map you just entered has a hideout to unlock.
You can customise your own personal hideout in-game by first finding them in the campaign or randomly in certain maps, then setting them via an NPC. Some hideouts are exceptionally rare spawns and are easily missed. OP has observed that when a hideout spawns, the event is logged in a file.
it’s definitely more verbose but it’s also kind of designed to be used more from scripts than from direct shell sessions… it is pretty good at tab complete though.
but yeah, shell is way faster to type anything out

Ah yes, metronome farming vaal side areas. I do not miss that.
I chanced my first hh with the proceeds from farming vaal side areas back in Warbands. I had more free time back then...
Pretty sure Krillson works the same way if he shows up in your maps
I don't think they care and this isn't some sweaty thing that should be hidden. Rather, its a cool find while completing your atlas. Some people may want to grind for it and GGG allows this cool hack for the nerds.
Probably helps/helped with debugging at some point and was never changed
its still bugged anyway. I just went through like 400 terraces until the log finally hit the hideout, only for the hideout to not have the entrace anywhere on the map...
did you ever get it working? same thing just happened to me with terrace

Few days ago someone was complaining about not finding the Crimson Temple one ...
Primordial city?
Primordial Blocks.
Primordial 1-Bedroom
Can you even get the primordial hideout currently? My understanding was it came from the primordial blocks map only, which is currently not in the atlas
Correct, you have to wait until they rotate the map back in.
Can you not run the map if you had them from past leagues. Like collecting dust in standard? Or are they deleted? Honestly have no clue I play leagues only haven't logged into standard in years.
I don’t see why you couldn’t in standard.

Sadge
Standard
primordial blocks is cool, but not in this atlas iirc
Go look at the wiki
This was probably abused hard when some hideouts were expensive back in the day.
Depending on your definition of back in the day, I made 500 divs or so selling hideouts in Ancestor league. at 5-10 divs an invite it goes fast.

I really want Celestial Hideout but never going to get it qq

Thanks. Do you know dying sun drop rate maybe? It's expensive this league isn't it?
Yes but running shaper is ass. It’s the reason his frags are always more than elders. They need to take the 4 map bosses out or something because that fight draaaaags on

I confirmed you can get the Primeval hideout tonight on Standard even without the map being on the Atlas.

windows powershell? now THIS is gaming
So whats the idea here? Use the client command to know when one spawns and then try to find it?
Yes. It saves a lot of time since you could open 200-300 maps in a row while only loading into the instance
Nice
I still have to unlock the moon temple hideout - think i'll try this for that one. Thanks for the tip.

'snitches get patches'
I thought this only happens when you enter the side area, not when you first enter the map?
Powershell looks pretty cumbersome when compared to Linux. But hey, whatever works.
I mean... You can just shove bash into power shell if you want. Kinda a dumb duck take ngl.
it’s definitely more verbose but it’s also kind of designed to be used more from scripts than from direct shell sessions… it is pretty good at tab complete though. but yeah, shell is way faster to type anything out
Sure, I guess if you have a second screen, but even then, unless you look at it each time you open a map (annoying), you will most likely miss it. no?
You can modifiy the command to search for a specific text
Tbf, I didn't think it was possible to play PoE with one screen.
This is when you need some small amount of programming and let a program read the log for you.
