The new /gpose is amazing!

This tool keeps getting better and better. I'm still amazed at what you can do with it, and two weeks later I'm still getting used to all the new features.

This screenshot I took today is completely unedited, save for a 90° rotation. Every effect was added through the /gpose, from custom colored lighting to color correction and FoV adjustment. I'm really impressed.

(the people I showed it to seemed to like it a lot, so I thought I'd share it here :D )

If there's one last thing I would like to see added is support for battle skills animation, on top of emotes; our options are still very limited if we want to stage anything involving weapons. And a time/weather slider wouldn't be bad either, if that's even technically possible.

Did you make anything cool with the new /gpose too? Go ahead and share it!

I like your screenshot and I agree, gpose is great :D .

How the heck did you do that, I tried to do something involved combat animation and everytime I entered, it canceled the animation.

I stopped editing pics after the last update, new stuff is even more amazing ^^

Here's a few I took while working on old BLM Relic stuff just using the /gpose 3.5 features.

Looks like he captured a still shot of the DRG /bstance. Well done shot!

Here's one of my first, playing with double lighting and some of the filters they provided

Totally with you in wanting Weapon and Job Skills added to /gpose. Even posted it as a question for the next Live Letter!

I've mentioned this multiple times around forum too.

Didn't realize ya'll were looking for battle screens... these are some old ones I tried before using /victory and /bstance emotes

How to use it?

Please tell me how to use emotes and battle skills while in gpose mode. This feature doesn't have any guide to tell the players how to use it. god sake.

Use the emote before entering /gpose-mode. For example:

1. /bow
2. /gpose

Now your character will perform the /bow emote while you are in /gpose-mode. ^^

I've been wanting skills in GPose for ever. I remember last patch I used Aelian Edge on a dummy and used GPose and the result was me staring angrily at the dummy while fight music played.

I agree with OP! I've been wanting all the features mentioned there. Knowing how innovative this game always is, I wouldn't be surprised if we eventually got them.

I remember back in the day, when I was amazed about other games having a flying camera mode (which was limited to just that, a flying camera without emotes or anything). I remember thinking that FFXIV needed such a thing too. And here we are now, with the best camera mode I've ever seen in any game. As a screenshotter, /gpose is one of the best things that has happened in my FFXIV life, haha. Thank you very much, SE!

I just managed to give the illusion I was in battle. It's a combination of dragoon's /battlestance paused mid twirl, orange light aligned with the dragon's mouth to make it look like it's about to breathe fire, and a small FoV to mess with depth perception and make the two entities look much closer to each other than they actually are.

I wanted an image for a website I've been putting together that gave a sense of "vastness" in one of the earlier zones and this is what i ended up with...

You can also use a facial expression beforehand to change your expression during the emote.

For example, this pic was taken with:
/wink
/shocked
/gpose

and this pic was taken with:
/ouch
/soothe
/gpose

As a /gpose enthusiast myself, I would also like to see actions working with the group pose feature.

We've heard whispers from the team in Japan that somebody has been taking a peek at the monitors of the devs. in charge of the group pose feature... and noticed something like that the other day!

Rumor has it they couldn't see all the details, so I can't say anything for certain, but I'm hoping that maybe, just maybe...!

Hatsune Miku and Gumi at a concert.
Nothing other than gpose options used for the picture. I used it in the idol contest SE recently had.

Good to hear they're looking into actions support!

Since certain skills like DRG's Jump or NIN's Mudras can happen so fast, would you pass along the suggestion for a slow motion setting please?

It does tell you, the last emote you use will be the one reflected in the /gpose. The rest is just experimentation! ^^

-rubs my nerdy little hands together-

I LOVE the new and improved /gpose. When I'm bored, I just play with it endlessly.

Some of my faves:

Though this one is probably my fav

What to do what to do! Should I trust this? This is too good to be true, and it is posted on April 1st...
But if it's true, oh man the possibilities!

In the future would it be possible to get some simple camera movement commands also to make it possible to make video and better .gifs? Tilt, pan, zoom, and dolly would be amazing!
