Windower 4 - Discussion and Support

[JSHidaka]

After you use stratagems, if you type //reload timers, the stratagems will begin working as normal, just saying.

working as intended... either way it doesn't really bother me

[Darkmagi]

I'm too scared to reload timers, it crashes me like 50% of the time. Mind you, not attempted since latest update.

[chichicha]

Pointwatch :

I tried this in static.lua
default = "sparks.current..'/'..sparks.maximum'sparks 'xp.current..'/'..xp.tnl..'XP '..lp.current..'/'..lp.tnm..'LP ['..lp.number_of_merits..'] XP/hr:'..string.format('%.1f',math.floor(xp.rate/100)/10)..'k '..cp.current..'/'..cp.tnjp..'CP ['..cp.number_of_job_points..'] CP/hr:'..string.format('%.1f',math.floor(cp.rate/100)/10)..'k'",

or this in setting.xml

<default>sparks.current..&apos;/&apos;..sparks.maximum&apos;sparks &apos;xp.current..&apos;/&apos;..xp.tnl..&apos;XP &apos;..lp.current..&apos;/&apos;..lp.tnm..&apos;LP [&apos;..lp.number_of_merits..&apos;] XP/hr:&apos;..string.format(&apos;%.1f&apos;,math.flo or(xp.rate/100)/10)..&apos;k &apos;..cp.current..&apos;/&apos;..cp.tnjp..&apos;CP [&apos;..cp.number_of_job_points..&apos;] CP/hr:&apos;..string.format(&apos;%.1f&apos;,math.flo or(cp.rate/100)/10)..&apos;k&apos;</default>

When I reload or restart POL
I get error message,
Static.lua:143: bad argument...

Did I do something wrong?

Interesting... that means it breaks at some point during usage. Thanks for this, this may help find the bug.

Definitely not intended.

[Trumpy]

The other day i tried to change what shows on pointwatch in settings file and when i reloaded it it kept erroring on one character but the other reloaded it fine but nothing changed. and pos and size doesnt seem to save anymore.

[Ophannus]

Resources have been updated. If they're still not being recognized they must be in new DAT files which we have yet to map. Can you name an item which isn't being recognized?

New Sparks rings/earrings:
Influx Earring
Upsurge Earring
Allegro Earring
Impregnable Earring
Flashward Earring
Spellbreaker Earring
Enlivened Ring
Vehemence Ring
Longshot Ring
Fistmele Ring

[Arcon]

These are all in the resources (can check in Windower/res/). If you find an item that isn't in Windower/res/items.lua let me know.

[Alvinho]

Unless I'm missing something (have never used the addons), how do you WS or use job abilities with AutoRa and/or Makeshot are active (and shooting, obviously)?

[JSHidaka]

Alt D, to stop shooting

On my mule I have a GS code so it use decoy and DS whenever it tries to shoot and the ja is up, same for ws, as soon it have 100+ tp. and with variables I decide what I want to be used "automatic"

Spoiler: show

-- Auto JA's	
	if spell.name == 'Ranged' then
		if player.tp > 100 and autows == 1 then
			cancel_spell()
			send_command('')send_command('input /ws "Coronach" <t>; wait 4; input /shoot <t>;')
		elseif player.tp > 100 and autows == 2 then
			cancel_spell()
			send_command('')send_command('input /ws "Last Stand" <t>; wait 4; input /shoot <t>;')
		elseif player.tp > 100 and autows == 3 then
			cancel_spell()
			send_command('')send_command('input /ws "Wildfire" <t>; wait 4; input /shoot <t>;')
		elseif windower.ffxi.get_ability_recasts()[52] < 1 and not buffactive.amnesia and auto == 1  then
			cancel_spell()
			send_command('@input /ja "Decoy Shot" <me>; wait 1; input /shoot <t>;')
			return
		elseif windower.ffxi.get_ability_recasts()[126] < 1 and not buffactive.amnesia and auto == 1 then
			cancel_spell()
			send_command('@input /ja "Double Shot" <me>; wait 1; input /shoot <t>;')
			return
		end
	end

Windower is all of a sudden crashing me a few seconds after I log on, every time. It still crashes me even if I unload all plugins and addons first, and logging in without windower does not crash me.

[Trumpy]

you will prolly need a crash dump for anyone to help ya Fwahm

[Fwahm]

How do you make a crash dump?

Edit: I found https://github.com/Windower/Issues/w...ps-with-Windbg, which says to get WinDbg, but I can't find it on the CodeMachine link the page gives.

[Fwahm]

Okay, here's my crash dump, I think. I've never shared a file before, so I hope this works.

[Ophannus]

These are all in the resources (can check in Windower/res/). If you find an item that isn't in Windower/res/items.lua let me know.

So maybe the reason I can't find it is because Spellcast support was dropped and spellcast resources haven't been updated? Those rings are not in Windower/plugins/resources/items_armor.xml and thus gearcollector/spellcast won't pull them up or recognize them.

[Sechs]

Interesting... that means it breaks at some point during usage. Thanks for this, this may help find the bug.

It works, but I also get a strange situation where I get TWO timers.
One on the background with a "[1] xx: xx" number that stay FIXED and never go away.
Another, on top of this one, that works as intended and correctly counts my stratagems.
The "fake" one doesn't go away even if I unload timers, it stays there.

[JSHidaka]

where to report items that GS says are not in resources?..

I was trying to export, and was getting an error saying that I'm wearing a item that is not in resources... started to remove 1 by 1.. and the winner was Witful belt

Not using -dev

@Byrth .... GS Export doesn't work, something in export.lua line 80.... tried to post in github but forgot my password and got locked... -_-

[Prothescar]

Pointwatch doesn't seem to be using the text box pos data from the settings xml. Every time I open the game, the box is reset to the upper left corner of the screen even though it has the correct pos coordinates in the xml. Anything I can do to fix that?

[Raelia]

For a while it was saving position on click-drag but broke again on or before patch day.

[Trumpy]

for now i have ffxidb and pointwatch just gettin their settings they dont keep whenever i zone via autoexec. pointwatch doestn keep pos (sometimes size, i like it at 10) and ffxidb doesnt seem to care what zoom i set it at last time it jsut picks whatever it wants, usually too zoomed in, so i jsut have it set to 25 each zone in. Probably not ideal but better than fussing with it anymore.

Bump.
