Just relogged in and thought you should know that if loading GI at the login screen, it fails to load:
GearInfo: Lua runtime error: gearinfo/Statics.lua:4: attempt to index global 'player' (a nil value). I don't know the fix, but just thought you should know incase this goes to global windower.
to be fair ive only ever had GI load once logged in automaticly, so never experienced it, will fix asap. ty for the heads up

Ah, new bug. If you have GearInfo on a job without a sub job you get:
GearInfor: Lua runtime error: gearinfo/Calculator.lua:282: attempt to index field 'sub_job' (a nil value)

Don't know how to, so just stuck with gear sets.
Should look into ashita, i found xml's to be much cleaner and easier to work with than using luas for gearswap and what not.
Ashita XML's are easy, yes. However you cannot do as complex things with XML's as Gearswap lua's. Not without basically writing a Gearswap equivalent for Ashita. I've talked with Comeatmebro about it in another thread before because Ashita has functions built into it that I have to mimic in Gearswap that sometimes get messed up.

the character im using to test doesnt have a mule without sub job lol, but i think i fixed it.
i assume if u dont have a sub job then windower.ffxi.get_player().sub_job returns NON

Don't know how to, so just stuck with gear sets.
I just spend this weekend setting it up and learning gearswap for the first time. In about 10hrs I was able to understand what I was looking at, replace all my gear in the lua and have it running. Its intimidating but if your computer savy its doable with a little bit of effort.
Its absolutely *** amazing. I wish I learned it day one it was released.

Looks like a handy addon. One thing I can't seem to figure out... the dual wield and dw needed values are not taking into account dw from main/sub jobs, and manually changing to dw value to account for job traits does not change the dw needed value. Not sure if it is intentional or mine's not communicating correctly. Otherwise solid features!

the DW shown is from gear, the calculation for DW needed does take main job sub job, job traits, job points and blue spells equipped into concideration

Is there a possibility to display DT/PDT/MDT values?
This would be cool as well. I concur.
how is this? worked on the dt stuff and also fixed / enhanced the accuracy tracker. This is just basic for now, i havnt added caps and Aegis' cap breaking ability.

That's what I was looking for!
Once the caps are in place it will be better, obviously, but it's still handy.

yes and also redo a //gi parse command, to reflash all your gear to file, due to changes i possibly made.

Thanks for the quick reply. I may not be looking at it correctly.
Here's what I have... /nin SJ (25DW) and 16 in DW from gear, maxed magic and gear haste. I believe I should be capped on delay but the program says 11 DW is needed:
(link if the above doesn't work) Link
I'm not the best mathologist so I may not be calculating correctly though. The DW needed value also does not change when I change support jobs from NIN to DNC, which I believe it should based on DNC having low DW natively. Edit: DW needed does change, must have bugged out when I first checked.

the DW from gear is not taken away from the DW needed value. the only way for u to drop the DW needed further is for u to go /dnc pop haste samba and go poke a mob. GI will tetect that u are hitting the mob giving u haste spikes and will adjust the value. it just so happens that even if u are /dnc or /nin u need the same amount of DW with capped magic haste.
here is an example 1st is /nin with same gear equipped but 300 magic haste and second is /dnc with 300 magic haste again
 
so in essence u need the DW to match the DW needed value, and you are golden, anything over and your tp/hit will start to drop pointlessly as you are at attack speed cap and DW lowers your tp per hit

OK, thank you. I guess I misunderstood. So if my DW values is = or > than "DW needed", I should be at delay cap. Is that correct?
Thanks again!

Hello, this looks great!
I just wanted to point something out. When the haste values on my equipped pieces are 8, 4, 4, 6, and 3, I shouldn't be getting 256/1024 for gear haste, since a rounding down to the closest value out of 1024 occurs per piece. I think in the Gear_Processing.lua, the haste values stated on the pieces are being summed first, then rounded to a fraction out of 1024, when the rounding needs to happen before summing.
Unless I am doing something completely wrong here, with the above example, I should only be at 252/1024.

Exact haste values for equipment have always varied by piece. ._.;; There is no hard/fast rule to go by, so it's only safer to round down. The old rule of thumb to aim for 26% was just to account for not knowing every piece of equipment's precise haste values. In other words, it's entirely possible that with your exact gear, rather than 252/1024, you could just as easily be at 250/1024 or 260/1024+.. It just depends on the gear.
For the purposes of this addon, I think it's fine to go with the 25% = 256/1024 assumption. Maybe change the cappped value color change to over 26% to compensate?

Thanks for that and i have fixed it, will push update shortly with all the above fixes and additions

Ah, thanks for the reply, Nyarlko.
I was under the impression that the exact values were just int([stated value]*1024/100) out of 1024, so each piece was always missing a small fraction. I think most of us already just go to 26%~ in gear, so it shouldn't be an issue. I just wasn't entirely sure if the proposed calculation would affect the required DW values if someone was sitting at 24, or 25%, for instance, so I wanted to bring it up.

ok i pushed the new update 'v1.6.4.0'. you can find it here. I also updated the link in the original post. I'm goin to bed now, its 1am, and wife is prob super pissed lol. Any more bugs / Requests will be delt with another time.
Only bug i didnt fix was error when loading addon at loading screen. just load it once character is fully in game. if the acc parser isnt accurate then open equip screen (its a packet issue).
new command also added //gi show dt to show the new displays with cap calculatiosn based on what u have equipped.
dont forget to //gi parse after getting the new files or some of the new stuff wont work.
edit: found a funny bug, lua thinks that 0 x (-1) = -0 ... i find that rather amusing ^^. will fix it tomorow.

I believe the majority of known values are like Haste+4 = 40/1024, but I also know there are exceptions to this, and that there are exceptions within the exceptions that the exact value is higher than what would be normally expected. :/
DW/MA apply before any haste effects, so even at the worst case scenario for precise haste values involved, DW+1% would more than cover the loss of Haste+1%.

Defense is only correct in the USA. Everywhere else (Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand, etc), the proper spelling is defence.

I created this addon over the last couple years with a few friends using it and testing it for me. I no longer play the game but wish to release it to the public.
I'm still adding to the wiki, But please read up on it there before asking questions. I'm probably not going to be checking this forum post so if you have issues etc post them on the GitHub.
There is enough information there to get people started.
I welcome any well constructed critiques and will not reply to trolls.
I hope you enjoy this addon. I'm not the best programmer and im sure people will have a lot of input.
Thanks for reading.
edit:
a quick tl;dr;
The addon tracks your equipped gear in real time, including their augments AND buffs like haste to give you on screen values.
Then if you use it with Gearswap, (read the wiki) you can utilise the information calculated by GI to make gearswap auto change gear based on current haste values, DW equipped, etc. It even auto detects when your moving (and not engaged) and auto equips movement speed peices. This is all done in real time.
This is its intended utility.
some pics;
example pics of it working with my gearswap files and my gearswaps on screen displays:
  
Useful Links
Things planned with no set date:
The above is in no set order, and I'll only do if i have time. Current priority is bug fixing and helping people understand its use and how to use it.
I really Appreciate everyone's feedback, its been extremely positive and useful. Only having myself and 2 others to test makes finding bugs difficult. With an army of players they have been fast incoming and its great (although i did release a massive load of code change on release. It was bug free for the most part before that lol).
I'm glad everyone is finding it useful. I'll keep working on this for the foreseeable future even though I no longer play.
I don't know if shameless plugs about donations is taboo in this community but if this was one of your though's then you can find a link on the home page of the wiki (however this is not why I'm working on the addon). This project is first and foremost fun for me, if it stops being fun, support will prob die with it ^^.
and finally this is going to be odd but here is a link to my LinkedIn profile. If you are on LinkedIn and wouldnt mind endorsing my codding skills I would highly appreciate it as I am looking for work in the Programming department. Thanks.
