    In windower the game will crash during the transition from POL to FFXI (after hitting

    I have installed the game without any problems so far on two laptops and one desktop all using Windows 10.
    I think this is a known problem that the Windower devs have not been able to isolate yet. I don't use Windows 10 myself, but I did see a post where a guy avoided the crash totally by accident, by clicking on another window during the transition from PoL to FFXI, right after clicking Play. Maybe try that, it's not a solution but at least it's a workaround.

    So no one knows the format to put in the timers settings file to black/white list buffs from showing up?

    What's your question exactely? Format is "spell 1|spell 2|spell 3"
    Sometimes it doesn't work, had it happen several times especially after patches. Not sure if Arcon fixed it last time I opened a ticket because it was broken (ignoring whatever you put into that field, wether it was Black List mode or White List mode).
    Not the first time it happens and not sure if fixed yet.

    Anyone experiencing crashing all of a sudden? I was logged in fine, now the game kicked me out. I tried loading the game from POL to check if it's windower, but i get the "error in direct 3d" error when I try to load the game. The crash resets FFXI's resolution as well. Odd.

    Send and Targeting

    Does anyone know if it is possible to send a target through the Send addon? Or if it's possible through lua to target by mob id?
    It'll make it much easier to select a target on one instance and pass that to my other instances when tri-boxing.

    Thanks!

    If your multibox are all following you, that will cause them to change target and lock on the assist, therefor follow it. You might be able to disable the auto-lockon via options -> gameplay -> controls: autotarget durring battle, I'm not sure on that part though.

    There was a addon someone made called AssistMe i think i found in this thread a while back. I use it alot. it makes your mules attack what you attack. the only problem is everytime u engage or disengage it makes the mule stop/start. so if mule has autotargeting on and switched to a mob and you didnt. when u engage it ur mule disengages. it also makes mule follow you after fighting and maybe one other thing I cant think of.

    Ok looked at the lua for it since I cant find it in the thread anymore. It was written by Arshesney (Bahamut) and its called AssistMe. I cant find it anywhere, i spose i could post the code later.

    Windows 10 user here. I was able to resolve the crash that happens on the POL > FFXI transition by disabling the opening movie.

    I also have been experiencing this, now windower for 4 days now. Seems common error lately from these forums.

    I have tried all this, no successs:

    1. reinstall windower completely
    2. reboot comp,
    3. rollback
    4. change resolution (will only allow official ffxi windower)
    5. Just now tried the movie thing, and still same BS.

    I also have the issue of everything getting setback to default when i try to get in through windower, which then does NOT allow me to get in from the official launcher UNTIL i change resolution.

    you can send command to stop following. then immediately send thee assist command

    Did you ever get it working? If so, would you be able to share how you did it? I'd like to hide the protect and shell recasts as well and can't figure out the scripting. Thanks!

    it is indeed "pipes" (i think they are called) the "|" straight up and down line on the "\" key. you have to put every version of protect though. protect 1 2 3 4 5 protectra 1 2 3 4 5 ect...

    so its like "protect|protect ii|protect iii|protect iv" wihtout quotes of course. within the <tag> I dont remember what tag is called im on different pc.

    The AssistMe addon someone posted somewhere I cant remember where, but here it is since I cant find it anywhere. The only thing I hate is if your mule is attacking when you arent or vice versa, When you engaged/stop fightin the mule will do the opposite of what he is doin currently Personally if my mule is already fighting and I start fightin Id like mule to keep fightin instead of stopping. But i dunno how to do that. Also that auto targettin stuff, when u kill a mob and switch to the next, the mule doesnt know u started fightin another one, I dont think there is anything to be done with that. .And of course full credit to the author (twas not me)

    You sure about that? Pretty sure you can just do Protect*|Shell* and it will blacklist all spells with Protect or Shell in them.

    I've been working (on and off) on a chat addon (TaruChat) which will let each server have a chat room. I believe it's ready to be released, but I was hoping to toss it out here first to see if there are any issues before I push it onto the windower github.

    I can release the server code if needed though I'd want to spend some time cleaning it up so I'm not too ashamed of it >_>;
    You can see everything the lua file sends anyways: character name, IP address, and server ID. I store character names and IP addresses in memory because I'm curious to see an estimate on how many unique users I get, but nothing is written to disk so if the app/computer restart all data is lost.

    ~Dropbox link to addon~

    Addon name: TaruChat
    "//taru help" for help
    "/a" or "/taru" to chat: "/a taru are the best!" or "/taru Galka are fat and smelly!!"
    "//taru chcount" to see how many users are in your chat channel (server) and the total number of people using TaruChat across all servers.
    "//taru who" lists the name of every user in your chat channel (server) one per line at the moment.

    Can use //a for commands instead, but //taru is better because taru.

    You can also create your own private channels which is supported but I'm not publicly releasing yet (you can probably figure out how if you poke at the Lua.) If it gets popular enough I'll add silly worthless features like private channel admins and login messages and crap or whatever you crazy people yell at me to do.

    TaruChat uses port 4242 to talk to the server.

    Finally a thank you to Byrth for helping with the Lua chat parsing. He helped me with the addon commands, outgoing text and handling the auto translate/jis in Lua. The server uses UTF8 so it should be able to handle whatever characters you can input into the FFXI chat.

    So, Im not too coding smart for luas, but an idea hit me that we could make an addon for summoning a random mount. I know addons like this exist for World of Warcraft so it should be possible. I just have no idea how to make it random. I figured you could make a setting file where people list what mounts they have unless there is a way to determine what people have automatically. I'm sure it wouldnt be too difficult to make, is anyone interested in such a thing?
