In this guide you will learn how to make your RGB gaming setup react to your PoE 2 gameplay exactly like in the video shown below.
You can also view this page which lists all of the effects you should see with this integration.
The application that you will be using for the game integration is called SignalRGB, it controls thousands of products from hundreds of different brands. Follow this guide to ensure you configure the application correctly.
Go into your Path of Exile 2 video settings and make sure that your display mode is set to Fullscreen or Windowed Fullscreen. Disable any color filters such as color blind mode if applicable. Reset your game interface settings to default to ensure that the integration will function properly because SignalRGB scans the game interface in order to trigger effects, it was designed to work only for the default game interface but that may change in the future.
If you have any mods installed that modify the game interface then you need to disable them as they will prevent the game integration from functioning correctly. You can still keep any mods including shaders that do not change the game interface.
In Windows go to System > Display and make sure your resolution is set to its normal monitor resolution, if it's a 3440x1440 monitor then it needs to be set to that resolution in the 'Display resolution' dropdown menu.
If you have multiple displays then go to 'Video Settings' in SignalRGB and make sure that the monitor you'll be playing the game on is selected in the 'Monitor Select' dropdown.
Use the search bar in the top right corner of the SignalRGB dashboard and type 'Path of Exile 2', then hover over Path of Exile 2 and click 'Get'.
Now you can go to 'Customize' on the left side of the window and you will see a bunch of settings associated with the Path of Exile 2 integration. By default, every integration starts with screen ambience as the background and it will look like the image below.
You can select a different background mode if you don't want to use screen ambience or even make the background brightness 0 if you don't want to have a background at all.
You can enable and disable which game effects will display on top of the background.
At this point if you are not interested in configuring the health and mana bars in Step 7 then disable the toggle labeled 'HUD Effecst'. You can now minimize SignalRGB and play Path of Exile 2, your RGB setup should start reacting to your gameplay.
The SignalRGB Path of Exile 2 integration allows you to display your health bar and mana bar anywhere on your device(s). Make sure the toggle labeled 'HUD Effects' is enabled.
If you want to properly utilize this feature then you need to position the health and mana bars to fit on your device(s). Enable the 'HUD Adjust Toggle' which will make the bars visible and then set 'Ambience Brightness' to 0 so that only the bars are on the screen.
Your effect canvas should show two bars, the red bar is health and the blue bar is mana.
There are many settings to configure the health and mana bar. You can adjust the bar colors, the x and y positions of the bars, and the height and width of the bars.
You may need to create a new device layout if you want the bars only on specific devices. In the image below, the keyboard is positioned in the bottom left corner while the rest of the devices are positioned normally. This way the bars can be positioned over the keyboard without overlapping onto other devices. Only the keyboard will display the health and mana bar while the rest of the devices will be displaying the other effects.
Now you can adjust the x and y positions, and the height and width of the bars until they are in the desired location as shown in the example video below.
You can go between the effects tab and the layouts tab to verify the positioning. In the image below with the Minecraft integration it shows that the health bar is covering the top half of the keyboard and the hunger bar is covering the bottom half of the keyboard.
You can also verify bar positioning by looking at your device which should match the layout.
Remember to disable the 'Adjustment Toggle' once you are done positioning the bars.
The video below is the finished result where the keyboard is displaying the health and hunger bar in Minecraft and the surrounding devices are displaying other effects.
This is the end of the tutorial. Send an email to [email protected] if you are experiencing issues with the integration.
