New Windows Version User Interface

[Siviard]

The quote below is the one I am most intrigued with.

• Multiple Log Windows
  Users will be able to open multiple log windows and apply different filters for each one.

But I am wondering, will this give us the option to play multiple characters from the same account? Or will I still need to have a 2nd account in order to use the multiple windows?

Or am I mis-interpreting the "multiple windows" thing totally and it's in reference to the chat logs?

It says "log windows" so I assume chat log.

They mean the chat windows so you can do

one For Tells/Parties etcetera and another for the battle etcetera, I believe.

That's lame. I would have loved to have had the option to open up another FFXI window and log on another character from my 1 account so that I can PL myself, etc. etc., as I do not have the luxury of having a 2nd account.

That would be quite interesting <.< One could almost have a full alliance by themselves that way.

This.

Basically, think of two separate log windows, each with their own independent set of chat filters. Say, one log for battle info, one for everything else (a/k/a the current default XIV setup).

Seriously, someone with PhotoShop skillz just needs to make a mock-up of the XIV interface on XI, to hold people over until Vana'fest.
