Windower 4 - Discussion and Support

[joso33]

I was reading about Unlimited plugin to remove the fps cap, but is unable to find under Add-on or Plugins. Is it no longer supported?

It's part of the config plugin now.

I noticed something with Distance (addon).
If I have a target selected and then I select a subtarget, Distance will keep displaying my distance to the target, not the subtarget.
Has it always been like this?
I seemed to recall it was displaying subtarget distance...


Oh and about Timers now.
I can confirm the old "bug" of displaying debuffs in the Buffs window is back, once again.
It now displays unaccurate or sometimes completely wrong timers for my debuffs, even though it should not display them at all (after all it's a "buff" window! Not a "debuff" one )

Find doesn't look into mog safe 2, ignore if it was mentioned already.

So I been duoboxing daily for a long time with no problems on same computer (the computer is newer and not cheap so its not a computer issue). Yesterday I dc on game like 2x with pol crashes and random r0ing without totally dcing. Then today I play and no dcing just random r0ing for awhile. As the day got later I started getting pol crashes with both char when I take waypoints or hp (it is not just hp or waypoints doing it btw, had both character in Yorcia zone and one crashed just standing in zone). I have never had this issue before this last update, and it is kinda weird how it is all of a sudden starting up. Anyone else duoboxing having this issue? I even tried installing windower again, replacing luacore.dll file etc thinking maybe it was a corrupt file on my computer. Did not help still having same issue. When I signed off one char it seemed ok with no crashes. Sandbox on or off not affecting it btw. Tried it off and on and it still crashes.

Like I said I normally duobox daily with no crashes. Just tonight been super bad, and I have no clue as to why. Any ideas or anyone else having this issue?

This is the crash info I keep getting for this issue...

Nothing like a reinstall to make you feel dumb as hell with FFXI/Windower.

I've gotten everything set back up how I like it, but I'm running into an awkward problem I've never experienced with Windower. It's set to launch at my native resolution, but upon loading the game it diverts the background graphics to 512x512. I've got an annoying workaround that's worked so far, opening FFXI Config after launching Windower and changing the background resolution back to 1920x1080, but what can I change within Windower so this behavior is done away with?

Seems to of fixed itself after a dozen or so restarts.

Is it possible to check an enchanted item's remaining charges and recast via luacore? I'd think it should be, I'm just not sure is that's exposed or not.

[Kanriel]

So I did a fresh OS install last month while I was inactive and came back for the free period. Everything is working great except for SubTarget. I can hit my macro to say cast haste on the target I choose, I get the choice in game, I go to hit that target and then in the console I get:

Last sub target does not exist.
Setting last sub to the recipient of the send command.

And obviously, the spell doesn't go off.

[Trumpy]

Hmm Kanriel posted bout what i was about to post about lol. Been meanin to all day and finally got here to do so.

It is using the extdata library. Should work something like this:

extdata = require('extdata')

var data = extdata.decode(item)

print(data.charges_remaining, data.next_use_time)

^ in addition to this.
Timers doesn't handles SMN BP ward timers anymore. Nothing happens when I use a BP Ward.

Is there a way to export my currently equipped items to a .txt for use as a script?

[dlsmd]

Is there a way to export my currently equipped items to a .txt for use as a script?

sort-of if you use gearswap (with a little editing)
but if your using gearswap why would you need to do this??

[Martel]

It is using the extdata library. Should work something like this:

extdata = require('extdata')

var data = extdata.decode(item)

print(data.charges_remaining, data.next_use_time)

So I did actually manage to get this to return some data. But it's kind of hard to use. Two issues.

1: extdata.decode(item) Where you have item, I couldn't get the item name, ID or anything to work. I ended up having to put a enchanted item as the only item in safe2 and use windower.ffxi.get_items(9,1) to get it to return data. Is there a simpler, more flexible way of pointing it to the desired item?

2: The returned data for warp ring looked like this.

1 1431903686

The 1 is simple enough, number of uses. But 1431903686? I can't figure out what kinda format/conversion it's using. If I was only going to use this for one item, I could just use that value, and compare it to the current value. But I was looking to make something that could check if any enchanted item recast was ready. Anyway, before I try analyzing that I thought I'd ask if anyone knew already.

1431903686 should be the time that is usable again (its probably server time)
as far as making the item grab eaiser its not so easy but can be done

[Warusha]

When will the new spells be added to resources? Should I just do it on my own?

Edit: I guess it was in resources but gearswap isn't picking up on it...

Aspir I/II work fine. Aspir III does not equip fastcast gear or midcast gear.

[Byrthnoth]

That is likely a problem in the function that handles job point spells. If I can still log in for free tonight, I'll give it a shot.

Edit: Actually, I found the problem. This probably fixes it:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/vzum8rq9lv...tions.lua?dl=0

Someone confirmed that it still doesn't fix it (with Drain III), but this is because the new job points haven't been added to the LuaCore API yet. When LuaCore is updated, it will start working. Until then, you can use filtered_action(spell) with handling for these spells.

Does anyone know what happened to the indicator dots on FFXIDB's minimap? If it's no longer a thing, I can deal, but if there's a way to get them back I'd really prefer that.

Thanks in advance for the help.

[Trumpy]

Check your settings folder for ffxidbs settings file. if makin sure those are turned on doesnt work it might be an issue with the plugin itself

Thanks for the quick reply. Now, I've never looked in there; is it clearly labeled or am I going to have to go prospecting? It's only been missing since the update.
