Windower: State of the Project Update! New Plugins!

[fantasticdan]

Sorry, should've shared ASAP

spells.xml of resources folder (breakga and blue magic 12/24 added) : http://pastebin.com/gyCrwuKB
resources.xml (just blue magic 12/24 added, breakga already exist) : http://pastebin.com/gC8DMXn0

Updating to these just made my pol crash on the first spell I casted.

Edit: Or rather "It encountered a problem and needs to close." FFXI/PoL is still running I guess, but the error box is there, and spellcast gear swaps/etc don't work.

OK, tried to open spells.xml and resources.xml again. I've been on BLU for couple hours now

Updated :
spells.xml : http://pastebin.com/ZR4A6eYG
resources.xml : http://pastebin.com/j62nDDjz

If it still not working then there's probably something wrong with the copy pasting the UTF-8 encoding.

Anyway we could get an update to yarnball to have it read all the new rolls and stuff?

Yes, soon

Taking screenshots seems to cause windower to crash.(among other things but the biggest nuisance is no screenshots without crashing) i did a full file check on xi. added back in xi view and xi vision and updated my plugins. Just retested and it's a complete crash. my windower is the latest version as well.

Is there a debug file anywhere i can send in to see what's wrong?

Open your console and type "about". Are you running 3.431? That bug was fixed in one of the last releases (if it's the same bug). If not, download hook.dll from windower.net. Otherwise I'll add it to the list to investigate.

Any way to fix the crash upon viewing chat log when dual boxing? Extremely annoying, especially given VW.

Launch the game with Aureus's XI-Utils sandbox plugin. Should fix it. We hope to include this functionality automatically in Windower 3.5.

Confirmed that it's the version you said. Downloading the new hook.dll since it's conceivable that I accidentally overwrite the current one with a 6 month + old one when I added in my old files. If I don't crash for a week then I should be ok. I cant force the non SS crashes so I wouldn't be able to tell if anything got fixed without simply playing and waiting for crashes. The SS issue got fixed by changing the SS into jpeg.

Any idea why mouse_blockinput doesnt work for me? (I put it in init.txt and no luck. When I type it in in-game the game crashes.)

bump!

Asked on windower forums and got no (satisfactory) answer.

Are you putting "mouse_blockinput" or "mouse_blockinput 1"? The latter is what you need.

This almost makes me want to play again.

The latter, i'm not retarded.

Yes, soon

Just had my 3rd crash since I installed the new hook.ddl. I'm gonna bug some freinds and see if they can pass along an up to date xi on my portable HD in the off chance there is some obscure .dat that's broken.

Hello just wanted to know if there was any decision made concerning gear collector plugin and a way to specify where the gear was going since a lot of people said they would like it.

Quick bump to plug SpoonyBard, a project Hyshio and I have been working on for a while now. Essentially you can make your own FFXI soundtrack, without having to go through the old file swapping method. Also includes support for playing music while fighting specific enemies, or when buffs are on.

Wait... Fuck-what-now? That is all kinds of balls-to-the-wall awesome.

We found the BLU and Break IDs if you want to edit the resources XML, btw.

This only works on Vista/7 I believe. Any fix planned/possible for XP users?

Your OS is over a decade old. Upgrade.

Noob question, but if i use the resources/spells xml posted earlier in the thread, will it update my job abilities that show up as unknown? Kinda sick of looking at them >_<.

This is pretty cool. I always used Vana'tunes to change DynaTav music to Awakening (because I'm ridiculous like that), and now I can make it all automated. :D
