ToxiUI in Final Fantasy XIV

Important Disclaimer

Modding Final Fantasy XIV or using tools that hook into it (like ACT) are against the Terms of Service. However, unless the tool/mod/plugin allows for an explicit advantage over other players (cheating), Square Enix turns a blind eye to this type of activity. However, they will not tolerate it being talked about or mentioned in-game. As such;

Modding in this game follows a simple rule: "Don't ask, don't tell." Don't ask if someone is using a mod or tell other people that you're using mods. Especially don't harass other players based on information gathered from a mod (such as mentioning their DPS). As long as you keep this in mind, you'll be fine modding.

Requirements

There's a bunch of stuff we need first to make all of this work. That includes a launcher, installing plugins and downloading some assets.

XIVLauncher

First we need this custom launcher that enables plugins and has other neat features, like skipping password input, faster patching speeds etc. Their website has all the information on how to install and more, so please visit their web and install XIVLauncher.

Assets

We also need two fonts and a bar texture to fully embrace the ToxiUI style. All of these can be found on this GitHub page.

DelvUI & DelvCD

Next we need to install the DelvUI & DelvCD plugins.

As the names suggest, DelvUI is responsible for most of our UI elements and DelvCD is for tracking CDs, similarly to what you can do with WeakAuras in World of Warcraft.

Launch the game with XIVLauncher, log in to a character, open the game menu and navigate to Dalamud Plugins. From there, install both of these plugins.

Assets & Profiles

After that, we need to register our custom assets to the plugins and then import the profiles. For instructions on how to do that, please refer to the full guide on our GitHub page.

Support
