LockIcon: Making Target Lock-on Easier To See

Hey everyone

Yes, FFXI already has a target lock-on indicator — but I found it a bit too subtle in practice, especially during movement or busy situations. So I put together a small Windower addon called LockIcon to make that state more visually prominent.

What it does:

Shows a clear on-screen lock icon only while target lock-on is active

Hides automatically when unlocked or when no target is selected

No menus, no UI boxes, no text rendering — just a clean, transparent indicator

Very lightweight and unobtrusive

It’s not meant to change gameplay, just to make an existing mechanic easier to notice at a glance. If you’ve ever wondered “am I actually locked on right now?”, this might be useful.

Feedback is welcome. Hope it helps someone else too ?

Cheers!
