ExpWatch

[imk]

With the recent update of FFXI breaking the ExpWatch plugin for Windower I decided to create one in lua to work with Lunar.

The script and all newer versions can always be found at www.imk.cx/ffxi/ because I might not always update what I've posted here.

So far what I have working are TNL and XP/HR as well as a couple other things you'll see.

The code is below and it will follow the BSD license.

-- To use this you must have the Lunar plugin for windower loaded
-- Once Lunar is loaded, load the script from the console as shown below:
--   .Lunar load expwatch.lua

-- For the resolutions mentioned below, just comment out the one you don't
-- need and un-comment the one you need.

I've spoken with Starhawk he's got something in the works, kinda like Cliffs windower 3.3

[imk]

just couldn't wait

[nebula]

don't mean to hiijack, but this is what i've been working on, too

my version

i had planned on posting the code shortly

[imk]

thats cool, i just started working on mine yesterday

you gonna put your script up then?

[voltage]

use the code command for posting source please makes it easier to read. great work

[imk]

i would have except the code block doesn't keep pre-style formatting

[nebula]

heh, i see you got a few ideas from my code i'm done playing with it, so if you wanna extend it or try and come up with betters ways to do stuff feel free

[imk]

yeah, some ideas were useful... no code taken though... just the idea i'll give proper credit where due when i get everything going... TTL on mine seems to be whack a little still... and mines nowhere near finished... i really need to clean up the interface... i liked the drop shadow, but i may switch back to the way i had it before where the color would be on all side of the text so that its readable on all color screens in the game... cause there are still certain times when it gets difficult to read...
