FFXI Config, RegEdit Tweaking, & Windower Screenshots Comparison

KhrymsonKhrymson Member UncommonPosts: 3,090

If you have a high end PC, you can tweak FFXI and make it look much much better than the best basic settings FFXI comes standard with! For those that don't find FFXI to look very good anymore, you can tweak and enhance it!

 

 

Best Settings only using the FFXI Config: {Background Resolution is at 1024*1024, Mip Mapping @1, etc!}

 

 

Enhanced Settings using RegEdit Tweaking:  {Background Resolution is at 2048*2048, Mip Mapping @6, instead of 1, etc!}

 

Above, but with Windower increasing viewing distance and other small tweaks:  {View Distance increased from 1 to 20, etc!}

    haHA!  I KNEW I wasn't crazy for remembering Windower made the graphics better!

    Honestly, it makes it look almost as good as the regEdit stuff.

    Problem is, Windower is still illegal.

    Been using windower since its creation and Square really doesn't give a shit unless you're trying to RMT or use bots!

    Links within a multitude of threads for such have been disscussed in great detail on how to do this on these forums and at many others....Search and google are your friend...I tire of repeating it!

    I tried google and came up with nothing helpful, I even posted a few forum posts at the time, and if you can tell me wthat would help me sinec I am not great with hex edit and no instructions.

    You've posted these images in a handful of threads here, but described your process in none.  If you have already posted this somewhere and "tire of repeating it" then please post links to where you posted it.  Google reveals nothing.  What purpose does posting your screen comparisons to the community serve other than to boost your ego if you don't share the step-by-step instructions with other players?

    Seriously; if typing into Google search "FFXI Regedit" which brings up over a dozen sites on how to do this is too hard to figure out then don't bother trying to actually do this.

    Or you coulda saved the attitude and just thrown up a link like the other guy... Dont make a thread then not support it when people are asking how.

    If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude; greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.
    —Samuel Adams

    Just as in the other thread "Leveling Speed" is it really so hard to try and think for oneself and figure something out without someone holding your hand.  The title already mentions how its done....think and use search!
