Extra gauges and buff trackers for FFXIV

❗❗❗ Consider using the QuickLauncher plugin instead, as it has more features and is being more actively maintained ❗❗❗

Installation

1. ACT + FFXIV Plugin
2. NGLD's OverlayPlugin
3. For gauges, add a new Miniparse overlay, and point the url to https://mkaminsky11.github.io/Codex/index.html
4. For buff tracker, add a new Miniparse overlay, and point the url to https://mkaminsky11.github.io/Codex/buffs.html
5. After positioning the overlays, check "Lock Overlay" and "Enable Clickthrough" in ACT

(For Streamers)

1. In OBS, add new brower sources pointing to https://mkaminsky11.github.io/Codex/index.html?OVERLAY_WS=ws://127.0.0.1:10501/ws or https://mkaminsky11.github.io/Codex/buffs.html?OVERLAY_WS=ws://127.0.0.1:10501/ws

Job Gauges

Shows information such as how much time you have left on your DoT (Biolysis, Dia, etc.), how many gcds you have gotten under buffs (Inner release, Perfect Balance)

Buff Tracker

Shows which party buffs are currently active and how long until they are off cooldown. For Astrologian, also shows which personal buffs your party members are using so that you can give them cards.

Known Issues

• The overlay has problems in exploration zones (Eureka and Bozja), and will often not register actions correctly. I'm looking into it :/

FAQs

Do I need Cactbot for this to work?

No

How to I change the overlay settings?

Hover your cursor over the gauges and click on the cog icon. Make sure "Enable Clickthrough" is not checked in ACT.

Why aren't my party buffs showing up?

Make sure to add a new overlay pointing to https://mkaminsky11.github.io/Codex/buffs.html. Otherwise, open an Issue

Why does it say "UNLOCKED (LOCK BEFORE USING)"

Check "Lock Overlay" inside of ACT (see this image)
