Windower 4 - Discussion and Support

[Draylo]

Looks cool, not like they would invite you anyway though, at least on my server lol.

[Byrthnoth]

It does not work with seacoms and likely will not ever work with seacoms on windower 4. Search comments are transferred from the lobby server (like most auction house information) and Windower v4 doesn't hook that server's packet handler. So the only way for me to handle that would be to try and identify them in the incoming text buffer, which would mean parsing every incoming text. I'll consider it for the future, but it would really be a much heavier addon if I did that.

I just got into a JP Shadow Lord shout (first attempt) that was entirely shouted in JP. They didn't seem to mind my presence.

byrth i DLed ur translate thingie put it in the translate folder and loaded it and immediately get:

translate: lua error (uknowwn: 1) - c program...translate.lua:1: unexpected symbol near '<'

EDIT nevermind i guess it downloaded a html version or soemthing, when i opened the lua it said doctype html at top or something. redownloading somehow fixed it

Timers is only keeping track of the number of songs you have on yourself at the time (I think? I can only have a max of 4 song timers) and overwrites duplicate songs. Is there anyway to turn this off? I'm assuming it came out of the earlier discussion of what "songcancel" did (was supposed to do?) but I don't see an option in the settings file to disable it.

If you're using the current "Live" version that's one of the (many) problems of timers.
If you're using the version Arcon linked in this thread some posts ago, that problem is gone, along with many others (alas not all).

Check THIS post and THIS other.

Well Byrth your translate addon seems to add words to normal english chat sometimes. I have it loaded on my main and not on my mule. I dont think there was much in the way of japanese yells last night that it seemed to do anything for except i did see several Darkness Kings for Shadow Lord fights and pups requested like you mentioned. There was one specific time that this LSmate was talking. What he said didnt make sense on either screen (Although it was english, other LSmates asked if he was talkin in engrish cause he usually speaks well) but i noticed on my main it had added the word "Prominent" I think it was before the word "NPC"

So not sure why but it was adding words to english sentences.

Using the link from Arcon's post (#3665) above (says 3.2.0.1 on load.) Is there a more recent link? Trying to get squared away before events tonight.

Was dual boxing today and had chat log from one char show up on my other char's screen. The 2nd char is just a sales mule and doesn't even have abyssea access, so there's no way it was there to see the others defeat rock grinders


Rly don't care, as it doesn't bother me, but figured devs maybe would want to know?

[Byrthnoth]

Do you use the sandbox plugin?

If not, use the sandbox plugin. You have to load it before you log in, but I've never seen this happen with it loaded.

[Cream Soda]

I don't, so that's probably what it is. Will give it a shot next time around

Following This post I'm still getting random crashes when I have Timers on.
Uually doesn't happen on jobs that do not have too much stuff to track, but when I'm on bard I always crash sooner or later.
This last time I noticed a blank line right before my POL crash, dunno if that helps.

here's my current Timers configuration, supposing it's an issue that only happens with some setting on:

I kinda have to play with Timers unloaded now ; ;

[Arcon]

Like I said in another post, you can just revert to the old Timers version for now (delete the file you have and let the Launcher download the old file again). I didn't push this live yet, as it's only a dev release until we fix the crashing issue, so Launcher won't download the same file again but the last stable version.

The only drawback is that that version requires the occasional reload if timers get too low because of spacing issues.

[Subadai]

Here's a link to a crashdump, maybe this will help, I dunno. Thanks for the hard work, I'm sticking with the dev version for now as it works well except for the very occasional crash. I didn't crash at all with it solo, it was only until I got in a party that I got a couple crashes within a hour or two.

[Arcon]

Can you check if it's still crashing you with this Hook?

If it does, can you use this Hook (different) to make a crash dump? That would help us out in finding the issue.

[Mafai]

For those of you on windows 8, you can re-enable sandbox if you multi-box. This has been fixed and pushed to dev / live.

[Subadai]

Can you check if it's still crashing you with this Hook?

If it does, can you use this Hook (different) to make a crash dump? That would help us out in finding the issue.

It takes me a long while to crash, so today I'll run the debug hook & debugger attached all day and post a crash dump if I get one.

[Subadai]

Been playing all day and no crash, but then again I didn't crash a whole lot before. Maybe others who crashed more can chime in.

[Sechs]

You tried the first one?
On the last days I've been playing SCH, DNC, PUP and BRD.
I never crashed on SCH, had some rare crash on DNC, quite some more on PUP and some console errors too (which I reported) and a LOT of crashes on BRD.
This kinda leads me to think that the crash is caused somehow by an event that happens when you buff (since I do a lot of buffs on BRD).

If you tried the first one I'll try to do the same today, I should have some time for testing.

[Subadai]

Yeah, I tried both hooks on BLM/RDM (sparks farming, mostly). No crashes on either, put in a few hours on each. Prot/Shell, Stoneskin, Refresh, Haste, Phalanx, Aquaveil, bars, the works. No crashes. Last Sunday I crashed on my PLD so I tried that for a short while (buffing/JAs in town) and still nothing.

[backstab]

Anyone experiancing any crashes while/shortly after zoning? been having this issue for a while now. i crash almost 100% if i stay in a Zone for a long time and then zone.
