just out of curiousity, seeing as how my buddy wants me to come back to this game.....

back when i quit, there was talk of SE doing there own form of windower or at least giving us a windowed option or whatever. Did that ever come about?

Hehe, unless they have increased its quality... you might still desire the more streamlined Azaril windower. The one from SE is very much a resource hog.

Azaril was the origional creator of windower iirc. current is windower 3.3
 
The ones with the mandragoras right? lol
 
Yes, Azaril's now has a Mandragora splash page instead of the initialization console screen.

It is a much more efficient window mode vs. SE's 'playable' version.
 
I'm still amazed at the fact that someone, who in no way is affiliated with the making of FF11, is able to make a better, less resource consuming version of windower then the people who made the game and have their hands on the source code and whatnot. SE seriously needs to hire these people. Hell while they're at it, they can hire the people who make new concepts for the .dat files. Maybe we can get some gear that isnt just a reskinned version of 5 year old gear, wouldnt that be nice.

That is a conflict in DX control of fullscreen and windowed mode. Both versions have the problem.

Ahhh shows how long it's been since I ran full screen mode. Actually it was the first two months I got the game so April/May 05. I quit the game because of it and only came back when Xephon said there was a way to play windowed mode.
 
I've never used windower before, I wish I could when I played on a PC. Looks so useful

Official windower works fine for me. No brightness, no lag, no ressource heavy .. The only thing that sucks is that when you alt-tab windows you don't hear the sound from the game. You however can hear the sound from another application when playing ..

I don't know what you are talking about. When I do the SE windower on my laptop I can still hear the sounds from the game in the background. It actually makes me angry cause I hear stupid crap from the game while trying to watch YouTube stuff.

if you don't fully minimize, it should. The other windower does the same.

I would agree outside contract would be best, I think it all come down to money. Hell they could most likely still the concept from windower 3.3 without even employing them, because it is there software.

Actually if i remeber theres a contrast setting under start>FFXI>FFXI config that brightens that. Also... the current people who update windower do play the game. the origional creator of windower does not.
