Eorzea Companion : Character Progress Tracker

[sruon]

Hello BG,

I have created this application in an attempt to overcome some of FINAL FANTASY XIV limitations:
-Unable to check a character class if too far away (party invites...)
-Lack of Linkshell informations
-Terrible Friend List
-Lack of any kind of character tracking

This application parses the Lodestone and auto-refreshes characters you decide to follow. Every 15 minutes it will check for any kind of progression and let you know if there is anything new you should check!

3. Settings
4. Opacity setting

It is possible to have the application sitting in a corner (using Top/Borderless and Opacity setting) of your FINAL FANTASY 14 instance for quick-searches, the "Followed Characters" button will change to "Followed Characters (Update)" when new infos are available.

It is also possible to have the application reside in the tray, updating in the background without it taking space on your screen and taskbar.
This icon means that your followed characters data haven't changed.

Spoiler: show

Known bugs:
-Some texts aren't very well aligned
-Some characters aren't parsable (they don't show on Lodestone even if the character exists, very rare)
-Follow button isn't very well placed, but that's the best I had.

Planned additions:
-Real character face
-FFXIVPRO Rank/Bazaar/Wanted
-Auto refresh timer setting

Given the nature of the application, I may add a few things
-Guildleve timer
-Item/Recipe/NPC/Map look-up

Requirements:
Microsoft .NET Framework v3.5

Like the functionality, especially in lieu of a sort of search function. Definitely add a Guildleve timer asap.
