------
This application shows some realtime stats of your automaton.
Currently it can show the following information:
- Automaton name
- HP, MP, TP
- Melee, Ranged, Magic skill
I made this so you don't have to go to the menu all the time to check your automaton HP/MP etc.
Full interface customization:
Requirements
- .NET Framework 2.0 or 3.x
- Windows XP, Vista 32/64 bit
Instructions
Run the application after you started FFXI (when you're ingame).
You can move the window by holding your right mouse button down and dragging it.
You can almost fully customize the look of the application. You can do this by
selecting the settings option in the menu. Currently the following settings are available:
Background
- Disable background: makes the background transparant.
-- Note: in this state you can only move the form by clicking on the letters. You can access the menu in the taskbar.
- Enable Background Image: Enable or disable the background image
-- Browse: Select a custom background image. Please only select .jpg or .gif images or the application may crash
- Select Color: When the background is disabled this background color will be shown.
Automaton stats
When you select a stat you can check or uncheck the checkbox to let the stat show or hide in the application.
Once a stat is selected you can change the following settings:
- Label color: The color of the label like: HP, MP, TP etc.
- Value color: the color of the value after the label like: 861/861, 0% etc.
- Enable critical color (only available for HP, TP, MP): Here you can select the color of which the value has to be when the
stat reaches the critical status (sorry for the bad explanation)
- Critical percentage (only available for HP and MP): The percentage which the critical color will be applied.
Advanced
FFXI Process
- Here you can select the FFXI instance. If you have 2 or more instances of FFXI running you can select
the correct instance here.
NOTE: - Start AutomatonInfo after all FFXI instances are started.
- AutomatonInfo will exit when one of the instances is closed.
Refresh Rate
- Here you can select the refresh rate of which the data on the screen is updated. Set the refresh rate lower for slower computers.
Reset settings
- Reset all the settings to their default values
To exit the application Right-click on the window and select "Exit".
Further notes
- Don't mess with the AutomatonInfo .config. This file is used to save all the settings.
- If the TP doesn't update after activation/zoning: Stand next to your pet a few seconds. It will be updated again.
Current known issues
- The application may crash when exiting an FFXI instance.
