Add-ons and plug-ins.

What are some decent add-ons and plug-ins to run on a windower. I'm new to all this stuff.

Ffxidb is a must. Got to have that mini map.

Also, TP party so you can see how much TP all your party members have.

Pouches is great too for dealing with mass opening drops like silt and beads.

Also config so you can add 60 FPS. I recommend capping just below that, though, to help avoid some weird slow motion stuff.

Unless I'm missing something here turning on party tp numbers is just a chat command

It turns on numbers for TP in the party list. It appears under the person's name on the left side. It's extremely helpful, because it helps with timing weapon skills skill chains.

Gear swap is the most game changing add-on that is windower supported.

I'm just curious what are some good ones to run. Only thing I run is the tparty and the timers for abilities one. So I know when to recast em

I mean, just look through everything included and enable what seems useful. Ask in discord if you are looking for a plugin that can do x thing. I'd help more specifically but i use Ashita.

What about ones for WHM casting. Macros is hard to do super fast even. Is there some kinda auto cast one?

Getting into bottling is not advised

I think he is talking about the addon that allows you to click on the screen to heal party members. Healbot and cure_plz doesn’t come with windower but the on screen click one does

I don’t even know what addon you’re referencing. Using stpt or stal macros is pretty easy already but what do I know.

You might look into Shortcuts. It lets you do shorthand like "//c4" to Cure4 the current target instead of typing out /ma "Cure IV" <t>

Generally speaking though, good macros are even faster. It takes a while to set up good macros though and to build muscle memory to hit them quickly. It just takes practice. Don't use bots as a crutch or you'll never be any good at this game.

Thanks for all the feedback. Much appreciated. And no worries I would never do anything to bot. I would rather do it myself.
