stuff is left on by default


Have you figured out how to fix this? I have it too. I have a Radeon Pro 455. Maybe it could be our graphics card

This is amazing, closest I've got to being able to play on Win10 so far.

I ended up dualbooting windows 7 to be able to play, and I'm assuming because of the Direct X issues it runs well on win7 up to quadbox. Fan goes nuts but no slowdown on gameplay.

Laptop - Windows 10.
CPU: i7-4700qm 2.4ghz.
GPU: Geforce GTX 870M. (According to dxdiag; Approx total memory: 10167mb. VRAM: 6108mb. Shared: 4058mb.)
8gb RAM.

The game runs and boots up well, looks nice but noticable drops in FPS which I didn't get from my Win7 version (although much much better than using integrated GPU)

I'll run at 29.1fps then drop to 22-24 for a second or so then back to 29.1. But it's quite frequently. I don't know a great deal about AA, MSAA, supersampling etc. It also sends my GPU fans into an absolute frenzy when dualboxing.

I'm not too fussed about graphic quality, happy with just 1920x1080, tried changing multiple settings to see if I can sort it out but no luck so far.

Current settings:
Windower: 1080x1040. Supersampling on. Bump mapping off. MIP mapping 0. UI Scale x1.
dgVoodoo: Output API - Best available. Adapters to use - All. VRAM - 512mb. Filtering - AAx4. MSAA - App Driven. No Mipmapping ticked.
NVIDIA Control Panel: AA Filtering/Mode - App Controlled. everything else using global settings.

I hope this is enough information, hoping someone can point to why it's not running smoothly. Thanks in advance!

Just have to say the response to get this working for everyone has been amazing. I was very easily able to follow steps and get this working on windows 10, with Windower without any issues.

Currently running 1920x1080 and on a 1070 Card. All graphics turned up and there are very little hiccups aside from a few sections of town.

Shadows off was a huge help as well.

The only thing is the text is a little squished. I have the test set to uncompressed. will upload a screenshot later.

But a big thank you to everyone that has previously posted, you made this a very fun and pain free process.

It's due to draw distance.
In Ashita:
/drawdistance setworld #
/drawdistance setmob #
(higher # value, the further out it draws)

In Windower:

Windower doesn't use the drawdistance plugin anymore, it's built into config.

//config DrawDistance 10

Lol, all is working fine except now I dont see any character

Then you failed to follow instructions and downloaded the wrong version of dgVoodoo2. Read the first page as it plainly has a link and directions.

I do it
C:\Windows\SYSWOW64\ <=== Put D3Dcompiler_47.dll here

D:\STEAM\steamapps\common\FFXIPAL\SquareEnix\PlayOnlineViewer <=== put D3D8.dll inside here along with the config program (since i have it from steam maybe its this ?)

Go reread the instructions don't skim, don't paraphrase, actually read them. Start at page one of this thread.

Been a busy month for me, started a new account after 7 years. Finally finished all the storylines so i have finally time to post this.

Windower and 4k 60FPS/tweaks was already good, whit voodoo + reshade? Basically FFXI Hd remake.

INSANELY good, graphics and performance. No more fps drops in towns.

I have uploaded a little sample on Vimeo, lost quality but still better than uploading on youtube.

I've been randomnly crashing while just standing idle in Mhaura. Started about 1~ week after setting up dgvoodoo. Works great except for this. I've since removed the DX file from the playonline folder, no issues. I'm wondering what could be causing this.

I'm running an i5-4590 and an AMD R9 390 on Win10.

I ran as admin and that allowed the changes to be applied in the control panel,however,when i play the game there is no change.Someone said something about optimus preventing it.I dont know anything about optimus,im no computer wizard ;).

Memory setting and do you have shadows on? What graphics card are you using this with and what settings are inside the GPU drivers control panel.

In case anyone else has this problem, changing textures to high in ffxiconfig fixed this. Also changed the map option to compressed with uncertainty of what it would change since having these settings at uncompressed don't work. Guess some people can have uncompressed but others compressed.

Everything was set to default, for the memory I had 1024 set, using a GTX980, graphic drivers are up to date but as far as settings inside the program I haven't messed with anything in it.also I have shadows and weather turned off I normally multi box but for this one I only had one logged in
