    Windower v4 Development - Which plugins are *required*?

    Quite a simple question, and I know you guys love to share your opinions with others.

    So tell me, in order for you to download Windower v4.0, uninstall 3.4x and use it for your daily day-to-day gameplay...

    - What features does it HAVE to have (either ones that v3 has or doesn't have)
    - What plugin functionality MUST it support (TParty, Recast etc)

    I'm not asking for pipe dreams, or "ideal world" scenarios. I'd like to know what are the minimum requirements for v4 to replace v3.

    Go!

    (thanks)

    G15 Binder is the big one for me.

    TParty
    Chatmon (complete with sound clips on being mentioned)
    Spellcast
    Cancel
    Recast
    Yarnball

    Those would be the bare minimums for me personally. Though I'd really also like to see:

    Expwatch
    Drawdistance
    CFHProtect
    Lightluggage
    Logger

    I would love if the damn thing wouldnt crash when shutting down.

    PS. No, unloading each plugin one by one doesnt work either, and it's no specific plugin, it's randomly one of the plugins that display text on the screen.

    This has been happening since 3.3, or maybe even 3.2. It's a known issue, many have this problem, and everyone keeps saying 'were working on it', but 1+ year later, no dice.

    This is using /shutdown, not console terminate, I dont like using it as it disorganizes my inventories.

    Yep! G11/G15 keyboard is the most amazing thing ever. I even made overlays with little icons on them for it. It's like the poor man's version of the Optimus Maximus keyboard.

    TParty, Distance, Recast

    It feels so strange to play on the original, barebones client after using those plugins for so long.

    Spellcast, while not essential in the strict sense of the word, is going to be included anyways regardless of my views. Everyone loves it.

    I guess ChatMon is nice if RMT tells piss you off, it's honestly not a problem I've experienced so far in Bahamut (lol closed server).

    Derp, forgot about windower's features: WindowerHelper support for 3rd party apps. :D

    Recast
    Timestamp
    Distance
    TParty

    Those would make me happy, and while not essential, I would like DrawDistance and Chatmon.

    Minimum requirements to get 4.0 to be the standard? Wouldn't it.. have to have everything 3.4 has now and.. more? <.<

    If I was going to unload 3.4 and download 4.0 it'd have to have all the features/plug-in support 3.4 has and then some ;x

    I've been waiting for a thread like this. With all the hype of v4 coming soon in full force to save us W7/dualbox users from dreaded 3.2.2 glitches.

    TParty
    Lightluggage
    Chatmon
    Expwatch
    Recast
    Yarnball
    Infobar
    Silence
    Clock
    Wincontrol (Should be integrated in the options of v4 imo, too simple)

    In that order for me.

    To be honest I'd use it over anything else if I could actually log to PlayOnline while still having Recast/TParty/Distance/LightLuggage/Cancel and scripted macros. Crash every time is annoying.
