HUD layout

Theres no ingame or launcher interface to do this, but the manual way is to check this folder:

C:\Users\<user>\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn
To shorten explanation lets call this folder the GameDoc folder

There will be folders with the name "FFXIV_CHR000000000000000" These are character settings. Each char has a unique ID.

0. Logout of the game and sit at the character select screen.

1. To start, make a backup copy of each of these character folders in a separate folder on your desktop. Do Not delete this backup folder until you feel you've successfully completed your task.

2. Now we need to identify which CHR### belongs to what character, to do this we need to wipe out all the CHR### folders in the GameDoc folder, don't worry you made a backup with step 1.

3. Login the character you wish to copy the UI for. Now look inside the GameDoc folder and you will see that the game created a new CHR### folder. write down that number, that is the unique and permanent ID assigned to that char across all JP/NA/EU servers.

4. From the backup folder, copy the CHR### folder that corresponds to the number you just written down.

5. Make multiple copies of this CHR### folder in the GameDoc folder, modify the name of each folder according to each char's unique ID.

6. Repeat step 3 for each of your chars to find out each of their unique ID's, and rename each copy of the Master CHR### folder accordingly.

This will copy, chat settings, UI layout, inventory settings, character settings, and hotbar layouts and settings.

This doesn't break the game in any way as i've been doing this ever since i started creating alts.
