Windower 4 - Discussion and Support

[Roland_J]

Probably this?

paralyna_command = "PPP"
example_command2 = "TESTTESTTEST"


windower.raw_register_event('incoming text',function(col,org,mod)
    if string.find(org,paralyna_command) then
        windower.send_command('input /ma "Paralyna" <me>')
    elseif string.find(org,example_command2) then
        windower.send_command('input /p The test worked!')
    end
end)

Thank you for the reply. I put that code by itself in an lua and tried it load it and it called a nil value on line 5, "raw_register_event".

I changed the code to windower.register_event and it loads and works ingame. Is the "raw" part to overcome battlemod's meddling? At this moment it's not working with battlemod loaded when trying to detect text that's modified by battlemod, such as pro/shell wearing off, which is what I've been testing it with just now. I've tried adding Arcon's code from here but I've not been able to get it to work correctly yet. If anyone manages to get it to work please let me know :D. oh and if you post arcon's code bg probably won't let you make the post for some reason, so just post the method in which you applied it instead.

Ah, I assumed this was the gearswap thread and you wanted it inside a gearswap file. raw_register_event is for gearswap user files and bypasses the normal user environment updates that gearswap does.

For Timers (sorry cant remembber who asked it last page) I could be wrong but i believe there is a settings file which has a line for 1 hours specifically. true or false.

Oh ok - neat, ty for posting how to get it working in a gearswap :D
I put it in one of mine and it loaded successfully. It's still not working on text that battlemod touches, however. Arcon seemed to be onto something earlier, here, as far as getting an onevent to work with battlemod. His was for a text function, though, and this is a col,org,mod function - I'm guessing his won't be compatible with this? Can I edit his to work here?
If anyone knows how to get this working with battlemod please post it

Gearswap's pet_midcast and pet_aftercast is broken.

Gearswap's pet_midcast and pet_aftercast is broken.

Noticed that shortcuts is slightly broken, I think. Atleast, I think it's shortcuts. If trying to use shortcuts with a trust (ex: //ha August) it doesn't recognize it, but it does when casting on PCs.

ha=Haste.

EDIT: Grammar.

[Byrthnoth]

I have to go to bed now, but we can look at this tomorrow afternoon and figure out what is wrong. Please keep posting problems.

Arcon is working on the new resources and they should be out shortly.

[Trumpy]

ooooh ha works for haste? here i been typing the whole word out!

[IceSylph]

It does if you edit the XML. You can make your own shortcut commands. I use "ha" for haste, "c1-6" for Cure I-VI, "cga1-5" for Curagas, pna for "Paralyna," etc. Just random shit like that.

[Ihina]

I hope everyone uses it something like that

I use s for stone1, s5 for stone5, sga2 for stonega2, sja for stoneja. Same with the rest of the elements.

Cures are all hotkeyed for me though. Those need to be as quick as possible and pressing that many number of keys is not to my liking.

[Trumpy]

Ahh I always thot you could make your own "aliases" but never knew what file to do it in or how exactly. I think I tried it a few years back and it didnt work so i guess i did it wrong

[Fwahm]

Edit: Nevermind, figured it out.

How do I get my icons/timers to look like these? I see them in a bunch of screenshots and I can't figure out how do it.

icons is xi view, google xi view, literally the first result. and if by timers you mean the number under the icons, there's a built-in one toggled in one of the config. menu.

You can, and the format is very self explanatory. Look for windower4/plugins/shortcuts/data/aliases.xml

Have fun.

getting an error in the console when i start the game and several plugins not working:

luacore - file appears to be corrupted. please re-download.

how do i update this file?

[theo]

Has anyone noticed Timers reporting weird values since the update? I think my Composure bonus is being applied to party members. Seeing 16 minute hastes and refreshes when it should be closer to 5.

For the life of me, I can't find this toggle. Can you paste what the line looks like?

I don't feel like releasing this as an addon that I have to support, but here's a code snippet that should display whether your synth NQ/HQ/Breaks pretty much as soon as it starts:

function event_incoming_chunk(id,data)
    if id == 0x030 then
        if get_player()['id'] == (data:byte(7,7)*256*256 + data:byte(6,6)*256 + data:byte(5,5)) then
            result = data:byte(13,13)
            if result == 0 then
                add_to_chat(8,'NQ Synthesis Q.Q')
            elseif result == 1 then
                add_to_chat(8,'Prepare your butt for the break.')
            elseif result == 2 then
                add_to_chat(8,'HQ Synthesis! >:D')
            else
                add_to_chat(8,'Unhandled result '..tostring(result))
            end
        end
    end
end

Did a search, couldn't find it: I see my game doing this and actually I don't want it to. I don't see which addon, if any, it belongs to or how to turn it off. Any ideas?
