Windower 4 - Discussion and Support

[Maurauc]

Just an FYI for anyone who needs it:
Slips.lua is missing the Silver Fox Earring for slip 03. POLUtils doesn't play nice with my laptop so I can't get the item ID for it, but if anyone could update it, it'd be much appreciated.
Bear that in mind if you're using the porter addon, looking at slip 03. All items are offset by one after Fourth Schuhs.

Other than that, loving the porter addon!

So we can alter the on screen maps or compression in the settings file or no? If so what do i need to add to it cause i do not see anything other than launcher options. Im interested in gettin rid of pixelly skies and things i have been seeing for years if possible.

Zohno fixed it just now.

It hasn't been added to the launcher yet, but it won't overwrite those settings, so you can set them with the regular FFXI config tool.

In fracture for some reason ALL my plugins and addons spontaneously crash simultaneously and cannot be reloaded. Says

Plugin DeleteThis method failed. Error:Access violation in IncomingChunk method

When i try to reload a plugin or addon or lua, it unloads instantly with these errors. I think it may be related to plasmod or azuresets because never encountered this problem before I installed these addons,

[Taim Meich]

Battlemod update removed the number counting the people that got hit by an AoE... I relied on that a lot! ;_;

[Byrthnoth]

Derp! It did? Oh, I suppose it would! I can fix that tonight.

What is the trick to getting a controller working while dualboxing with windower v4? When I open the second instance it seems to turbo push the down button.

Switching out of the window then back usually fixes that.

You have to move to the screen of the other character specifically. Just moving to firefox browser doesn't work.

[blasphemy]

anyone else crashing while do delve? i am constantly crashing now for no reason. its like when there is to much battle spam on screen i crash.

Something broke my luacore just now. Had 2 instances open, opened launcher to download plasm addon, it went to update something on its own and wound up crashing luacore, and now luacore wont load: "Failed to find GetGUID"

[Kohan]

I haven't experienced any crashes, but I did immediately receive errors upon logging in. They were related to the Reive and Plasmon addons. Specifically, they were (abbreviated):

...\plasmon.lua:243: attempt to compare number with string
...\reive.lua:286: attempt to compare number with string

How can I stop the timers plugin from showing perpetuance/accession/etc. as their own cooldowns?

Huh!?
I don't have that.
Only I have is Strat : number.
Is this just a pushed update happened like an hour ago?

There was a very short-lived bug out there, this should have been fixed within 5 minutes, you must have logged in during that time. Some internals were changed but a new LuaCore was pushed before the actual Hook update. Unfortunately if you're seeing this, you will need to download a new Hook, i.e. restart the game.

I'd like to point out again that while someone may have experienced it here and could answer, the best way to get an answer (and that goes to everyone with addon bugs and questions) should either get an IRC client or load the FFOChat plugin and join #lua. It's the best way to get in touch with some of the addon creators, who are usually the best qualified to answer those questions.

In this particular case it appears in a check if it's the first time the addon is loaded. Was it your first time for those two? Does it happen again on reload?

I would not be able to do this while at work; however, I can use BG. Mainly, I wanted to notate the problem before my game was closed and my console's contents lost. I'm not personally worried about it, but thought that you would want to know.

I've used these addons since they were released, and I have never had this happen before. I unfortunately was not in-game long enough to determine whether these addons would ultimately work or not.

If it happens again, I'll append the information I've supplied by posting again here.

that's probably yarnball functionality. it's showing you when the strat will wear off i presume. does it start at 1min and countdown or does it start at ~48 seconds?

[Afrohatch]

Anyone else having problems opening windower 4? Or does my life suck?

[fantasticdan]

Oh yeah you're right, it is the buff duration. The problem is their timers don't disappear when they're consumed, so they're constantly taking up a lot of space in my buff timers.

[grevenilvec75]

i think you can blacklist them in the settings xml. I dont use the yarnball functionality so i couldn't say for sure.
