    menu editing via dats?

    Jeryhn already told me it wasn't possible but i figured i would ask here anyway since i need to be flamed more.

    After CFH'ing on Cerberus tonite at 4% i'm begging to hate the disengage>call for help button on the menu bar. This really DOES NOT need to be there at all.

    Is there anyway, at all, via dat to remove this part of the menu?

    what happens is i am really into switching my angle's via the "swtich target" menu button. however sometimes in the lag the when you press "switch target" it doesnt always click into movement mode and instead using the arrows will navigate the menu instead of moving target angle.

    i have done this numerous times now, Tiamat, first Hydra kill(@3%) and now Cerberus (@5%).

    So again i ask, is there anyway to dat the menu so the Disengage/CFH button is not shown?

    Because it's obviously the game's fault for you calling for help at 3-5%.

    Press the * key to unlock 360degree movement around a NPC/mob. Clicking change target to move around is totally unnecessary... Using the HUD is totally unnecesary.

    It's probably easy to make a "bot" that intercept the call for help command. I'm sure someone could make a windower plugging for it.

    You're begging for smart-ass replies, so here's mine.

    Pay attention.

    It sounds like you're using the mouse&menu. Do people really use mouse to play FFXI? The usual thing to prevent bad CFH is to unmap the key that is bound to it. Then you have to type out /help if you really truly want CFH.

    BTW, yes, FFXI's UI is about the most poorly designed and implemented UI I've ever seen. Too bad SE shows zero interest in improving it. ; ;

    Going to quote myself because it's turned into that kind of thread.

    EDIT: Also, when lock-on is turned off you can change view with mouse or holding shift+arrow keys if you're that into seeing yourself from different directions.

    I have never called for help without wanting too... in fact there's plenty of damn times when i've tried to CFH and all I get is "you cannot call for help at the time" I mean why can't i??? i have a mob that is about to rape my ass in red and i can't CFH because i'm a damn mage and i strangely enough am not engaged? >_>

    SE hates us mages we want to CFH by mistake too then post on a forum and look like total retards.

    Can't believe someone hasn't this before.

    Also, I can't believe he didn't mention his ridill.


    Its your ridills fault you CFH'd


    And I doubt you can change the UI.

    I'd make a suggestion, but you'll just ignore it and continue to do what you like to do. Even if it causes you to CFH like a giant fucking n00b.

    Repeatedly.

    but w/e thx for the help for those that provided a semi-serious answer didn't expect to much out of the thread anyway i just needed to up my post count a bit
