Here's My Cozy HD/UI And Ingame Setup :)

Deleted and moved my original post here as I think it's more subject appropriate

Thanks everyone who helped me whenever I had questions trying to make this. The goa was to make a cozy yet functional way to play XI as both a single and dual boxer. Please let me know what you all think!

Thank you to RadialArcana, Nextlore, Amelia, and Ashenbub for making this game beautiful in 2024 :), as well as all the people who worked on performance optimization

Thank you Aliekbar for XIVCROSSBAR, Shadida for her edit to XIVCROSSBAR to allow this, and everyone involved in that thread

Thank you to the devs of XIVBAR/PARTY, Pointwatch, and enemybar2 for helping bring QoL to the game :)

Because I'm still waiting for YT verification, here all the links to what I mentioned. I've included a read me document on how i did some of this stuff with XIVCrossbar, but I will most likely just make a how-to video for it.

how do u set up xiv bar?

how do u set up xiv bar?

UPDATE FOR THE DUALBOX PORTION: I figured it out a little while after making the video, but I've removed the pause delay needed to select a target before cast a cast occurs. You can now open the selected menu, select your target, then select the spell to be cast. The spell cast is as fast as hitting a macro or selecting the spell from the ingame menu.

As such, the cure menu script is now:

xb bar Cures;
pause .05;
target <stal>;

That opens the cure menu you've made, allowing you to select a target. Once you have your target hovered over, you can select the spell to be cast:

//Cure IV
setkey enter down;
wait 0.1;
setkey enter up ;
xb bar Main;
sta go characternamehere Cure IV;

You can do this with all your friendly spells.

I haven't worked on this too much, but I'm tackling doing the same for enfeebling spells.

Update! It took some braining, but after much trial and error I have managed to get it where I can debuff subtargets without needing to be engaged or using <bt>.

This functions similar to how I got cures to work without any delay.

The script for the debuff page is now:

xb bar Enfeebles;
pause .05;
target <stnpc>;

This opens up the debuff menu, in my case: Enfeebles. You are are now free to pan through targets at this point.

The second script is for the spell:

xb bar Main;
sast youcommand yourcharacternamehere Silence;
wait 0.2;
setkey escape down;
wait 0.1;
setkey escape up;

This will have your alt cast a spell on your subtarget. After which, you are return to your locked target state.
