FFXI Vanilla Servers

[Millburn]

I mean I'm not going to dispute that but I'm not prepared for the classic FFXI grind ya know?

I'm super interested in those graphic tweaks though. Shit's a lot more grainy than I remember it.

I dont know which launcher you use, but make sure you set all the resolutions to the native on your monitor. Change the "Background Resolution" to 2x your native resolution. (1920x1080 multiplied by 2 for each respective number). That is the main thing that will improve your graphics.

Again, I don't know if you use ashita, but try /fps 1 once you log in and /drawdistance setworld 5 /drawdistance setmob 5

I did some google-fu and ended up doing the whole registry edit thing to get it looking pretty. The background resolution to twice native resolution was fucking MASSIVE. I'll try out the drawdistance tweaks here in a little bit, thanks for the tip mrgoochio!

Yeah I edited my registry as well, but FFXI seems to run in 30fps capped so /fps 1 will limit your FPS to 60. when you go above 60fps all the animations get wonky so even though I have a 120hz monitor I run at 60capped. With the drawdistance up a bit and the background textures 2x and 60fps, this game looks amazing for its age. Looks like a modern title to me, albeit some of the ground textures aren't that great. The art style is really amazing in this game though

Can't mod draw distance, bro. Nasomi has specifically stated that in the past. I'd ask him just to be sure that hhasn't changed though

idk I didn't have to enable anything to make drawdistance work. Just had to type /drawdistance setworld <number> in-game. in any case, i'll check out the nasomi wiki/faq. Thanks for the heads up

Windower development is under way but at this time no. Keep in mind, most plugins and add-on's are not permitted. Timestamp, recast, distance, fps are about it.

Looks like we good to go [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Quoted by nasomi
