  • This took me forever... I'm sorry its so long there just so much to cover, I could have surely made it a few more hours... but I hope I covered everything between these two guides for the user interface and how I use it in FFXI. I also go over what I know of every official Windower add on and Plugin.
    If you make it thru this whole one you are amazing! and I think it could really help you enjoy the game and play much better. Some of the vets on FFXI may already know all of these things.

    Use caution as some repositories have tools that I think may fall into real high risk stuff. And a large amount of the player base frowns on publicly.

    I've really enjoyed these guides, thank you so much. I'm brand new to FFXI, I dipped my toes in for the first time last year and keep trying to get into the game but it's been really difficult for me with all the mountains of information, let alone all the outdated or outright broken links to things. Just wanted to let you know I've found your guides the easiest to digest for me, I appreciate your pacing and thoroughness, while keeping it concise and not meandering into nuanced use case scenario examples.

    • @sakuradestros

      So there are watermarks checks in 2 tabs, a dgvoodo one, and a 3dfx one. Also each time you modify the settings, be sure the play online folder is up. It tends to load on the dgvoodo folder and that won't change your ffxi

      there is a watermark check on 2 different tabs, the 3dfx one, and the third tab for dgvoodoo. Make sure both are unchecked then save. While the playonline folder is on the top. I still mess this up sometimes on reinstalls.

    The concept of “cheating”
    Is impossible in a PvE game.. it would be more accurate to say “break the rules”.
    Nobody would say you “cheated” the speed limit by driving fast to get home quicker.
