Player menu:

You can right-click any player window to get this menu

• Purple: opposite faction (must be set manually)
• Grey: not identified as part of a group or faction, could be anything

Main Menu

• Run new instance: launch a copy of the program to run in paralel. Portable one (/portable) will use a different folder to read the settings from, so it’s an easy way to keep a separate install if you play both in Euro and US servers and need different settings on each. so you don’t have to re-do them all the time.
• Load/Save session: you can store your current session to a file, including all the players data/skills/ap etc, and load it some other time with the same exact values it had. You can also share these files with other people to open on their end.
• Process another log file: process data from some older log file. Some data won’t be 100% accurate with this method.
• Save Chat..: export the text from the chat windows to files.
• Open folders: “Screenshots” folder refers to ARM’s own SS folder, not Aion’s (for screenshots you take with ARM)
• Freeze chat: stop adding chat text to the chat windows.

• Start Aion: launch Aion from ARM. You need to configure the path and server in the settings first. The 64-bit client will be selected automatically if available.
• Kill frozen.. : close Aion instantly
• Dps profiler: graphs with dmg/dps
• Players Database: keep your local small database of players you play with, and set them a score and comments. Bad score will give a warning when they join the group or dps nearby.
• AP Calc: simple calculator for AP relics
• Faction translator: translation text between both factions
•  Siege times: opens a table with European server siege times
• AP ranks table: (I think this is outdated),  ap gain/loss table at different ranks
• Capture raw log: very useful tool to find stuff in the log and re-process small portions
• Item library: Find and copy data for any Aion item to link in-game
• Set alarm: explained later

• Remove pve damage: removes all hits not considered “pvp”

• Main S: opens main settings window
• * Register only pvp: only hits considered “pvp” will be counted towards dmg/dps and registered
• ** Register only me/grp/ally: players not in your group etc won’t be registered. You must add player names manually for this via Data/Add..
• Register dmg from mobs: mobs will also be included in the parsing.

Stuff on the status bar

The small panel on the bottom of the window shows a few things. Click it to alternate between 3 different views:

Ap/kills: AP gain from quests/pvp and number of PVP kills.
Exp/Mobs
Kinah (gained)/Spent

The panel right above this also shows some data when you hover the mouse over, from all the players combined:

 

Skills Window

This feature shows very detailed info about all your skill usage, timing, mobs/players you hit etc. You can also search/filter by time/mob/skill/dmg by typing on the search bar. Click on the skills on the left pane to filter by skill.

You can also copy portions of the data with right-click:

 

Players DB

Maintain a player database where you can set scores, and get warnings when bad scored players join the group or dps nearby

 

Raw log capture window

This is a very powerful area where you can load and reprocess portions of the previous log, as well as filtering by specific terms.

 

AP Relic sharing

You can have the AP relics looted counted automatically and displayed in each player box. This is completely automatic, when a relic is looted, the counter will be updated. (this feature is disabled for players on bad score or deemed as hackers/scammers)

To show the current amount, simply type “.ap” in the chat, or select/cut it from the textbox, and ARM will copy the AP amount to the clipboard ready to paste.

 

Item library and Alarms

 

G15/510 LCD

 

In-game faction translation

Simply type “.tr this is the text to be translate” and press enter (the text must appear on-screen/in the log), OR select/cut it, then ARM will catch it and translate it, then put it back in the clipboard ready to paste.
