Windower 3.3

[ircgeek]

One day the windower will be about a massive download, which includes it's own mmorpg that runs over ffxi, which will be what ffxi should of been like.

Triple Triad add-on gogogo.

[Dank]

I just noticed LightLuggage stacks crap when you buy it off the AH in singles, god is that awesome

It owns for mining too ^^

[tyraravenlocke]

Indeed.. thank you Starhawk and Taj and there rest of the unamed development team (well assuming that there is more)

That's all ^^

[Spekkio]

I would love ANYONE who made a plugin that was a simple timer, like in ffassist. I'm sick and tired of using ffassist, and I only use it for the timer.

Please, Taj, help me out Q_Q.

just a simple

.timer set 20:00 would set a 20 min timer Q_Q

That would be incredibly amazing to have. Something so I don't have to keep typing /clock or looking at a stop watch to see how much longer I have in Assault/Salvage/BCNM etc.

this sounds like a very advantageous tool to have. i can't count the number of times my dumb ass has failed to check a clock before entering nyzul and being shocked when 10 min comes up sooner than i'd expected. since virtually every timered event has a message before instantiating it (most even stating the time in the BC, which could set the timer if the notices are similar enough or *shudder* all hard coded) which could autostart the timer.

oh, one more thought that's probably WAY more work than it's worth: nyzul ordered lamp solver. i generally have no problem organizing my crew to pull it off, but i know a lot of other, newer groups still find those floors challenging. having a tool to automatically spit out trial combinations and accept back result sets may prove useful to them (and me when i'm lazy.) merely me throwing out ideas and talking out of my ass. idea's yours if you want it, piss on it if you don't, i don't care. if i'm not writing it, i don't have a right to bitch. ^^

use yarnball, eat food when you start nyzul, food counter is 30 minutes, subtract 30 seconds for misc stuff, grats on nyzul timer (thats what I did)

Yarnball has a lot of excellent features, but you dont have to use them all, just use what you want, it will remember the others.

[Linsivi]

Taj had a really simple, nice timer but lost it when his hdd wiped. I'm sure he can whip up another when he isn't busy with the rest of the release stuff.

Was kind of cool for bio macro since it can't be resisted time wise.

And Sono, does yarnball still not account for troub. or +3/4 instruments? Last time I used it, it just set a timer, wasn't dynamic at all.

[Meian]

Not sure if it was mentioned yet but every Maneuver I put up for PUP it comes out as Fire Maneuver. Nothing serious but still there.

Wish I could get a timer to know when Maneuver is about to wear off ;;

new 3.3 windower and the plugins are great. Timestamp is nice for ToD. Even though its xx:10 off but good never the less. :D Thanks to Cliff and the reset of the crew. ^.^b

I play on console, and always have, not sure if I am understanding this, and I havent had much free time to play since.


1. Does passing worthless items give you a better chance at getting items of worth? (I assume no, but we are talking about SE's programmers after all..)


And one more comment... since I am console player.

Thanks for making me have to work with 10 free inventory spots or more entertainingly.. camp the loot pool to avoid the flood of crystals, appreciate it.

Indirectly? If you keep getting Wind Crystals, there's a chance you'll end up 60/60 when that Kindred's Seal auto-sorts.

It also depends if the loot is sorted individually or as a group when the drop from a monster.

Just wanted to thank you guys for the continuing work with windower. It's really great and I love the new plugins.

While perusing this thread I came up with an idea for a very simple plugin that might make our lives a lot easier. We all have gear that's effective on certain days (like elemental obis) or effective at certain times (like NIN AF). Would there be a way to have a plugin such that my nin macro script could look something like:

if (night)
/equip hands "Koga Tekko"
else
/equip hands "Dusk Gloves"

I think something like this would make situational gear a lot less of a pain to use! :D

all indications show individually. (that and doing it as a group is unnecessary extra overhead on the part of the programmers.)

shimozene, you can do this yourself (mostly) make two sets of macros, one for night, one for day

load the night set during the night (manually) load the day set during the day (manually.)

Ive always wanted something like this on BLM for weather bonuses, but was never sure if it was possible with just a windower plugin. My guess it would be more on the windower macro side..

[Ganzar]

would the autoexec plugin be able to script those?

[Evelyn]

as it stands the windower macros can't support it, it would require nested commands which i don't believe it can do. I'm sure it could be modified to do such a thing. there were other non-windower programs that could do it (there was an equipment changer a few months back that supported such things) but atm I don't know of anything that does.

That's exactly what I do right now. I have two sets of scripts with the same text file names. So when the time changes I copy/paste them over the base set which my macros actually call. This works fine but it's still a bit of a pain and during a fast paced XP party I always forget to swap sets. I'd notice the clock says 2:00 and then go to swap to my night macros, instead of swapping at 18:00. lol

Ah of course, I'd forgotten the Aphmau incident.

he did a naughty during bg madness

I believe further explanation is needed for those who missed this. <.<;

I made a script that did this using FFACT, but it's not being developed anymore. It was awesome for a while, did day effects too, and low HP and MP.
You could probably put something like this into Windower macros though. Would be for a major release. Maybe 3.4? :D
