Needing to clear your inventory manually first before having organizer clear your inventory for you is a catch-22.

Whole point, for me, is to not have to manually put things away from inventory.

Not being able to understand the instructions is how we got here in the first place. I just wanted to explain what needed to be done to create the file via command. I think it was also important to include going to the trouble of setting up your inventory to stress the idea that freeze needs to be thought of differently here.


I didn't empty my inventory to create these files. I have full faith that anyone else who tried to solve this problem could do so if they wanted to.

If you understand the logic behind a premade one go for it. Eventually you will customize more than just sets if you want specific functionality, but no reason to start entirely from scratch unless you want to.

I personally had a pretty low ceiling for fancy gearswap stuff so I stuck to Bokura's luas, in case you don't want all the bloat of a Selindrile or Arislan one. https://pastebin.com/u/bokura

Anyone able to provide me with some explanation to why my Gearswap has stopped working when using macros to cast spells? But works fine when casting the same spells using the menu. Also a way to fix it if there is one.

Do your macros include equipsets? A friend had GS and equipsets and it *** his ***up.

No they do not they are just single line macros "/ma "Haste II" <t>" for exmaple

You're going to have to post the file

and define "stop working"

Using gearswaps that automate literally everything when you understand literally nothing is bad mkay (assuming it's a selindrile file, filled with rules and application you don't even know exist)

When I say stop working I mean at no point is my pre-cast or mid-cast changing, I am remaining in idle but only when using a macro to cast a spell. Using the spell list everything is working as intended. Has been working perfectly fine for like 5 years, up until this point.

You're going to have to post both the file and any errors you see.

"Why is this not working" is not a way to ask for help.

When using in game macros with gearswap, it depends on how it's written.

using your example
1. /ma "Haste II"<t>
2. /ma "Haste II" <t>

do you see the difference? #1 won't fire Gearswap
#2 will

that 1 space between " and < will make or break your macro
hope that helps

I see the difference, my macro is not wrong because the spell is still being cast, but gearswap doesn’t kick in. If I cast haste II using the spell list, works just fine.

I don't know the details of WHY he said what he did, but to be clear, he didn't say the spell wouldn't cast, he said GS wouldn't fire.

Maybe your macro is correct, idk, but the fact that the spell is casting isn't refuting his point at all. With ***like shortcuts etc, you don't actually have to use proper in game syntax to get a spell to fire.

How would one go about updating addons\libs\packets\fields.lua so the 3 new currencies in currencies 2 can be usable with this addon?

https://gist.github.com/Ivaar/a95d9e565bd9a0e2036179c0c8cdee58

It would be under fields.incoming[0x118] = L{



found it here:

Lol the jp page seems to be down so I can't read more on how they work

But I never knew there was gear that had the stealth trait

https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Stealth

Would be funny if there was more and you could just throw this on instead of sneak invis

The wiki says it just decreases a roll not the distance of detection

Relevant augments in 2025 are
- Alluvion Skirmish Armors and Weapons
- Unity Rewards
- Oseem augments

Than there's also Divergence Weapons, and JSE necks and Capes, but those slots are so specialized that normally it's the above three that you're looking into.

It's definitely a bit annoying to have to scour the pages manually, but at least they're setup in a way that they're decently searchable for the most part - tho I sure wish Unity items had searchable descriptions alongside searchable augments.
First Page 2 3 ... 898 899 900 ... 904 905 906
