They need to find a way to detect XIV Alexander and ban people

So it's not able to shave off 220ms of one way ping time and allow faster than light data transmission? Bah! OPs point is very hyperbolic then.

Unfortunately no it's not real magic lol. But it can allow you to double and triple weave even when you have poor latency (this is quite cool and handy for those with poor latency). If you modified the github code I imagine you could easily turn it into a cheat (though maybe the game would detect that and ban lol).

Not going to lie isn't moding just one of the many benefits if PC gaming? When did it become so vilified?

theres a difference between modding a single player game and an online game, a single player game only effects you so no one cares if you mod it (well some people care but those people are weird) modding an online game can lead to cheating. granted i dont see this mod adding any real advantage, like who cares how much MGP someone has all the gold saucer items are glamour anyways. mods like parsers on the other hand do not belong in this game

Yeah, double weave is incredibly tight, nigh on impossible. Interesting, thanks... I will wait for the OCE though and look for a static there, it's only a month off now! (Rebuilding another character to do it on will be a pain though)

I thought they were going to allow transfers?

What the title says. I just found out that it literally tells you things in the game that you shouldn't know prior. For example. WHen you do the Gold Saucer Mini Cactpot, it will LIGHT UP the ones you want to click for the highest reward... That's absurd.

Further. If any contest comes back like the Firmament, it will literally tell these people what to use each step to get the best quality. It can also adjust their ping to be near zero, allowing them to hit skills/nodes much faster than others. This doesn't need to be allowed and there has got to be a way to detect it. Clearly it's reading something in the game files to allow it to tell you what buttons on the mini cact you wanna click. Which is against ToS.

Yep, sadly things like this will happen with players using Mods and cheat engine. They dont have a way detecting 3.party software being used and checking if the game files are modified.

Gonna have to work with Windower First xD

Then maybe we shouldn't have any kind of animation lock.

[Airym]

There's an entire thread here in this very forum about why a tool like xivalexander needs to exist. Basically the game does some messed up reapplying of the animation lock based on your ping, which need not exist. It's just bad programming and the developers refuse to acknowledge it because in Japan everything works fine.

I am not giving up my FC, FC house, house, and friends on my primary server. He will stay there, and I will just make a new one for a static.

The fact that OP seems to know so much about this program or whatever it is, suggests to me that they use it or are close to someone that uses it alot. Just sayin....
That said, I can neither prove or disprove that but as mods are against the ToS and many are difficult to detect without outside help or reporting, the only real thing you can do is report the person(s) using them and move on. Regardless of what this tool does or doesnt do, its clearly in the area of "mods".
