Retainer App

Sitting at work wondering if my retainer is having any luck.

I sure wish I had an app to check and manage my retainer. Is it possible? I don't know. I'm not a programmer.

I just wonder how she is doing.

Too bad SE themselves stated they're perfectly fine with this because they even have ideas for apps on certain features come 2.0

Living in the wrong era man lol.

Nice find Felis. I'm glad it is at least on their minds....whether or not it actually happens.

I was just thinking how nice it would be to check prices on my phone/tablet while I'm crafting or even while waiting around for a party to form.

Exact opposite with me. I crash a lot more when I run windowed (even with desktop themes/composition and UAC disabled). But the game runs nearly flawlessly in full screen. It still crashes occasionally when I try to craft in a crowded area.

game crashes no matter what mode i play in.full screen i get the directx error when i tab out.windowed it randomly crashes

and the app would have to be written by SE since we would need to hack into server data to update the app

very weird could be a bug in yours have you tried to do an uninstall reinstall? I remember when I was playing 11 I would keep crashing no matter what mode I was in turned out it was a bad sector on my hard drive and that's where 11 was installed on. I had to uninstall and reinstall to get it to work finally.

but on topic that would be an interesting app as long it was a free download >.< though if se makes it i almost can see them charging you for it.

Eeyup. I also installed a new SSD recently, so it was not only a new install of FFXIV, but a fresh install of Windows.

Unfortunately only the handful of people who managed to put retainers in the wards could use such an app.

I never find any space so I would have no use for it >_>

The answer is "shoddy client".

The crashes are rare enough that they don't bother me, and I expect the 2.0 client to resolve them.

LOL, good point mine crashes as well but i know it's nothing on my end but it's very few and far in between but yeah maybe the new client will fix it. Here's to hoping ^_^

I'm sure if it happened it would be post 2.0. So hopefully that would not be an issue.

Exactly. It's different from person to person, yet we all have one thing in common: FFXIV is the only thing that crashes consistently.

Android has plenty of apps for FFXIV.
