As a secondary thought, the Unlimited plugin has caused crashes on zone for me when used to entire uncap FPS.

1. Start up however many instances of Windower/POL you need.
2. Once you are in the POL Login screen, navigate to the Windower4 Plugins directory (Program_Files_(x86)/Windower4/plugins).
3. Paste in the new LuaCore.dll file.
4. Login to POL/FFXI.

I know the Windower team shys away from out right botting, but is there a plugin/addon that I'm unaware of that can repeat bids on the AH? Even just a way to macro "input last bid" or something would be great. Been buying skirmish stones up, but stacks are a rarity.

[Arcon]

The LuaCore issues should be fixed. Sorry it took so long, I had to leave right after I pushed it.

There's the bidder plugin which allows you to bid on things through the command line. Then you can just loop it.

Where can I get bidder? I don't see it under the GUI's addons or plugins, just goes AutoExec > Binder, and googling ffxi windower bidder plugin turns up zilch.

[Sechs]

Use the Konami code, iir, and you'll see it
I thought Bidder had some issues atm tho?

[Arcon]

Does it? I'm not aware of anything because I don't use it and no one has reported it. If it does let me know and I can fix it.

And yes, Bidder is an officially unsupported plugin, you can enable those by entering the Konami code in the plugin selection screen.

I've seen that said, always thought it was just an lol thing though. XD So next dumb question, syntax to bid? See nothing other than the bidder.dll and //bidder gets me nothing in game.

[Arcon]

//bidder bid "<Item name>" 0|1 <price>

The 0|1 thing means 0 for a single item, 1 for a stack. Example:
//bidder bid "Holy Water" 1 2000

This would bid 2,000 on a stack of holy water.

[Sechs]

Something is still not working.
JAs now work but WSs do not work
If Input //resolution <t> or even /ws "Resolution" <t> nothing happens.
I need to use /raw for the command to work.

Where is the issue? Gearswap? Shortcuts? Luacore?

[JSHidaka]

well on live, it does work

[Sechs]

woot? How? I'm on live, just updated after Arcon's post and it doesn't work for me. No WS works unless I go //raw
It's not shortcuts, it's gearswap, if I unload it it works.

Edit:
Nvm it's some sort of error in my lua but it was working until before the Luacore mess happened, I don't get where is the problem >.>

Edit2:
Can't be sure but what I think happened is that the "Casting" boolean (remember the Lua lines you suggested me?) got stuck on "True" even if it wasn't really true. Either the Aftercast didn't get processed becuase of packet loss or something else, no clue.
Wonder how that happened tbf, maybe I should think of a fail-safe mechanism that resets the Casting boolean under certain circumstances to avoid stuff like that to happen again.

Nothing happening with that format with the plugin loaded. The specific line I'm using is:

//bidder bid "Snoworb Stone +1" 0 3000

If it matters, this is at the AH with the AH window open or closed.

[Arcon]

Shouldn't matter as long as you're in an AH zone. I haven't actually used it before, this was just from glancing over the code. I can look into it better when I get home, or someone who knows about it can jump in and clarify things.

Btw, if you just type "//bidder bid" it should tell you the correct syntax.

It's bidder buy i think? or do they both work? I would try //bidder buy "snoworb stone +1" 0 3000

[Trumpy]

i was recently told bout this command and was told //buy "Item Name" 0/1 cost

Both of these work, thanks much. ^^/ Bid, buy, close enough Arcon, thanks regardless for making Windower awesome.

As an aside, is there any technical reason why SE's AH system is so slow to place bids, while this completes a purchase within 1 second? Or is this a "just cause" kinda thing, like how they said on the oforums that equipset swaps happen as fast as possible currently?

[Draylo]

Every time I get to the login just before I select my character, windower crashes when all the plugins start loading. I have to try 2~3 times before I'm able to stay in. Any ideas?
