Acquisition

Acquisition is an inventory management tool for Path of Exile.

You can download all of your stash tabs and character inventories for offline search.

You can list items for trade using forum shop threads. These threads are indexed by the official trade site. This allows you to list items in remove-only tabs as well as character invetories, which are not normally listed on the official trade site.

Acquisition runs on Windows, macOS, Linux.

NOTE: macOS builds will be unavailable until I have new Apple hardware to build and test on --gerwaric

You can download setup packages from the releases page.

Building Acquisition

Acquisition is written in C++ and the Qt widget toolkit. It was original a qmake project, but it now uses cmake.

Qt

Acquisition should be buildable with Qt Creator (Community) on any platform that supports Qt 6.5.3 LTS.

Acquisition depends on the following Qt modules, which should be installed from the Qt Maintenance Tool:

• Qt HTTP Server
• Qt WebSockets

Microsoft Windows

On Windows you can also build Acquisition with Visual Studio 2019 and the Qt Visual Studio Tools extension.

Windows releases are currently built with:

• Windows 11
• Qt Creator 13.0.0 (Community) with Qt 6.5.3 LTS and MSVC 2019 64-bit (for release builds)
• Visual Studio 2022 with Qt Visual Studio Tools 3.0.2 (for editing, debugging, and testing) and Qt Vs CMake 1.1
• Inno Setup 6.2.2 (for installer creation)

NOTE: v0.9.9 is the last version of Acquisition that runs on Windows 7 and 8.

Apple macOS

NOTE: macOS builds are unavailable because I don't have Apple hardware to build on right now --gerwaric

macOS releases are currently built with:

• macOS Ventura 13.6.1 on Apple M1 silicon
• Qt Creator 11.0.3 (Community) with Qt 6.5.3 for macOS
• XCode 15.0.1

Linux

Linux releases are currently built with:

• Linut Mint 20 Cinnamon (based on Ubuntu Focal) running in a VirtualBox VM
• Qt Creator 13.0.0 (Community) with Qt 6.5.3 GCC 64bit
• OpenSSL 3.1.5 (manually built and installed from source)
• linuxdeploy (for AppImage creation)

You will need to have OpenSSL installed and available on your LD_LIBRARY_PATH to use the Linux AppImage. This is because linuxdeploy blacklists OpenSSL, which blocks the libraries from being included.

Command line
