XIVHotbar Addon By Edeon

Didn't see a thread about this so thought I would make one, in-case anyone didn't know about it. I started playing around with it and it's quite a fun addon / script w/e. You can create custom icons and it even works with send to control alts etc.

There are different icon setups for in and out of battle, it also changes based on job selection.

I'm not sure if you can change the keys outside of 1-10 or add/remove from the standard 3 rows, I'm guessing not. I'm personally not using the functions of the addon and just using it as a visual UI extension for my binds to the Fkeys (since I don't think you can easily change the keys it uses).

I assume they didn't have an xiah account to post it here, I don't think they even play FFXI anymore so doubtful it will get any more updates.

xivbar is a HP/MP/TP addon and xivhotbar is the hotbars, they are two different addons.

reddit thread about it

The icon for /heal looks like a guy bending over and pinching off an epic loaf.

There's a version here someone has been updating:

Oh nice ,I've been doing the same here.

I made them clickable, added Alt row, fixed the keyboard tracking, made it so you can change the actions when you summon Ramuh, that kind of thing

I'll have to take a look at that one

Thank you so much for mentioning it! I was using the original addon but this one offers more features and is definitely easier to manage hotbars.

The only issue I found is the fact that Weapon Skills set to hotbar don't seem to work at the moment. If anyone knows how to fix it, please share.

Sorry for the necro bump but I am having trouble getting something to work in XIVHotbar on Summoner job and I figured this would probably be the best place to ask for help.

I'm trying to get avatars to work on the hotbar and some of their abilities but it doesn't seem to be working. I've copied exactly as is from the SMN.lua file within the Akirane folder and that didn't seem to work. I've also tried inputting the avatars as normal spells and that also didn't work.

Examples:

I would also like to know if it is possible to issue windower commands from XIVHotbar. More specifically a command for Elemental Siphon.
Examples:

Thanks for the help.

Sorry for the necro bump, but I managed to fix the issue with weapon skills not working with Akirane's version. I'm hoping this is helpful to other players trying out this addon for the first time.

Near the bottom of player.lua, comment out the following lines:

After this weapon skills should work once again.

I've found this addon to be very helpful. Per the question above, looking at the code it should be possible to issue Windower commands by using the "macro" command type. You can learn about this and the other command types in the same player.lua file.

is there a way to make this work on more accounts? everytime i load xivhotbar on my alt it reset all the settings

Every character has their own unique hotbar settings, stored in folders - for instance \xivcrossbar\Asura\Kuumihumi is where everything for Kuumihumi is stored. If you want all of your characters to have the same exact settings, just copy, paste, and rename that folder so you have one for each character. Since you have probably already logged in on those characters, you would first need to delete/rename/backup their existing folders.

Have you tried editing the settings manually in notepadd+++?
I was having something that sounds like what happened to you after moving my hotbar 5 around whenever I did click and drag. (All settings turned to 0 inevitably)

After I manually changed the settings in notepad I've been fortunate so far to not have that problem.

i already did that, but it seems the settings file must be in the data folder, then i have data\kuumhumi. If i try to move the setting file into kuumihumi folder and reload addon, it will create another setting file in the data folder

i noticed now it separate characters inside settings file, but if i try to manually change something when i reload addon on both char, it always reset settings

edit: actually was able to keep hotbar position, but when i try to change row and columns it always reset back to defoult

ok i just delated my old settings file and had addon make a new one, it seems fine now

Hi,

Quick question I'm hoping someone could help me out with. I have the Akirane version of the XIVHotbar addon up and running. Really enjoying it so far. Having originally played XI back in the early days and only recently come back after playing XIV for a few years, this is helping me a lot! :)

I'm trying to add a button on my General Hotbar to equip a Warp Ring, but i'm having troubles getting it to work. Has anyone had success with equipping something this way? I know I can do something through GearSwap or just use a normal XI macro, but more so just curious if it's possible.

Thanks,

{'battle 3 8', 'input', '/equip main Apocalypse', '', 'Apoc'},
There are a few other methods.
Mmake a gearswap set and then have the set equipped.
Open a windower script.
Make an equipset ingame and use that,


On that note. Is there any way to use multiple commands on a single button without a windower script? Eg equipping have a single JA button/bind to use berserk, aggressor, and so forth in a single press. I might have to just resort to making an alias in gearswap since I feel like that's too many separate files when i could centralize them on my gearswap.

Awesome, thank you! :)

Might need some help with this... I'm trying to install it but it won't appear in game and when I try to load it in I get a 'file does not exist' error.

EDIT: Fixed this by changing the name's folder, but the .lua won't load :/

How do you edit the hot bar and add your macros

you write them in a lua
xivhotbar_keybinds_job['SCH'] = {
{'b 3 1', 'ja', 'Light Arts', 'me', 'L.A.'},
{'b 3 2', ..... etc etc
}
slot, command, name, target, name displayed, icon displayed

Has someone been updating this addon lately? It'd be awesome if this addon could change out blood pact ability actions depending on which avatar I summoned - as it does with weapon skills.

I think it does, been trying to do it for best but no luck
