You're right, but do third party programs still work in correlation with basic POL windower or will they be forced to find other means? If this indeed causes a big inconvenience to botters, that's what I find funny. :)
Laugh all you want, if windower stops supporting multiboxing it'll be a huge hit to Square enix and how much money they get for ffxi per month.

which affects everyone.


I don't see how that affects me and if anything that's another subject so... where you going with this?

I zoned in and out of my Mog House so technically didn't change areas.

So... you have 1, this post making 2 posts.. posting links and I'm supposed to click them? Yeah probably not buddy.
That is a link to the windower dev team's github bug tracker. It's legitimate.

Trying to keep up with multiple disorganized threads on the same issue is a huge pain, so they prefer that people send it straight to them in one place. Less slogging through forum posts (a majority of which are not helpful), more attention to the issues themselves, faster resolution.

Edit: yeah, so there are currently 3 threads about this one issue. You can probably see what I mean lol D:

I can confirm that Windower 3.4xx from legacy.windower.net does indeed work.

I could not test a June version of the Windower 4 Hook.dll because it kept updating it to the newer version. I'll have to figure out how to block it from auto-updating.

Other than that, that's your alternative if you want to give Windower 3.4xx a shot until the devs fix the issue. I can also confirm that neither of the plugins or add-ons are the cause, so it has something to do with Hook.dll or something else.

This should be fixed, you will need to restart POL though as it was a Hook issue.

Open source always gets fixed faster than proprietary code remember that :)

A shockingly common myth. All our addons are open source, all our plugins are closed source, plugins all work (mostly), and maybe half of the addons do, even though the entire world is free to fix them.

Also, I can guarantee that you needed to intimately know the specifics of this code to be able to fix the bug from earlier, I'd bet good money that it wouldn't have been fixed any sooner if it was open source.

That said, open sourcing is an option we're constantly keeping in mind for when all active devs quit, possibly even sooner. But not for now anyway :)

Hook wont update for me. Starts to then just stops part way. Tried many times and never makes it all the way to the end. Gets stuck at different spots, but keeps getting stuck. Eventually the profile page comes up, but since hook never finishes updating game still crashes. Any suggestions?

Not sure, connection issues? Maybe our server couldn't handle that many requests right now, since probably a lot of people were trying to update at the same time, so not sure.

Can try this for now:
