Is it just this girls dream? I'd love to be able to tab out and not lag up/crash or anything. I remember with FFXI's, I could tab out and my controler let me still move/fight/macro's all that. Tab-play, basicly.

If not, I'll have to live with the normal windowed mode if I even do that :o

Google magic, ladies and gentlemen.

Actually, I have serious issues getting this to run myself, only works about 10% of the time but when it does, it's like sex.

I should have posted sooner, lol. I posted that windower in the beta thread a while back. It works with retail, and rather well might I add.

That was harsh considering you were the one who made the mistake in not reading it over twice btw... At least say sorry.

Yeah seems they shut down the website, lol. I'm guessing SE got their grubby little hands on it.

I can upload the files for WindowerXIV if people want it. I'll just need a few minutes.

For those that want it:

Eep.. I totally said the wrong word. I wasn't calling you a jackass.. I ment 'not being' not now ;_;

How I spent that wrong is beyond me, but I didn't mean 'now' D:


Edit: Btw, I DID find it after I looked around alittle and found a link off another site that actually took me to the site, I just dun get why this one didn't work that way v.v

Aikar also made a Windower for XIV:
http://aikar.co/ff14windower.html
All it does it make your window borderless. Make sure to set windowed mode to your native resolution.

(For people who may not trust the other windower or would prefer something from an established community such as Aikar's.)
I will attest to the fact that both work and are safe.

::EDIT::
Any chance I could have both links I provided stickied? Would make it a bit easier for people to find.

I just like windower, I feel it makes the game run smoother ^^

Also the things on ffxi were nice, being able to tab-play was my biggest thing I liked. (Able to tab off and still control my character, to keep going where ever I'm going while I lookup something was win!)

Not gonna happen. As far as they're concerned the Windower team has no intention of working with XIV.

I don't know who Aikar is aside just some random guy I just read on a forum to some ls/guild/something. Someone can inform me who this person is and why he/she should be significant to me o.o

I would play WoW but the art style just turns me off. Something about the way the characters look just doesn't appeal to me. Everything else about the game i like. Oh well, maybe he'll come back around should SE improve on what some players don't like about FFXIV. Of course we shouldn't hold our breath, right?

I agree, some of the UI designs in the game can't be justified by anyone not in the process of having a stroke.


Still, I love the core of the game enough to pick it up when all those tech issues are fleshed out, probably by the 30th, lol CE = 25Dollar Beta4.

I was actually looking to get the Windower for 14, because I can't stand the game in any other mode but fullscreen, but I also can't stand not being able to look up sweet pr0ns at the same time, infuriating!

That Aikar chick sounds no different than anyone else who play the beta and was disappointed. I guess she's special cz she went back to WoW, instead of... ya' know... GO OUTSIDE!

A - Aikar is a dude
B - Aikar knows more about the mechanics and software implementations of FFXi and FFXIV then pretty much anyone other than SE.
C - He's been playing MMO's since EQ

His comments are on a much deeper level implementation wise than i think most people would consider.
