IINACT 国服适配

IINACT

A Dalamud plugin to run the FFXIV_ACT_Plugin in an ACT-like enviroment with a heavily modified port of Overlay Plugin for modern .NET.

The data source here is only based on Dalamud.Game.Network and does not require any extra injection with Deucalion or network capture with elevated privileges.

This will not render overlays by itself, use something like Browsingway, Next UI, hudkit (Linux only) or Bunny HUD (macOS only) to display Overlays.

Why

• ACT is too inconvenient IMHO for just wanting to have the game data parsed and served via a WebSocket server
• Drastically more efficent than ACT, in part to .NET 7.0, in part to a more sane log line processing (disk I/O is not blocking LogLineEvents and happening on a separate lower priority thread)
• Due to the above and running fully inside the game process CPU usage will be orders of magnitude (not exaggerating here) lower when running under Wine compared to network-based capture
• Uses an ultra fast and low latency WebSocket server based on NetCoreServer
• Doesn't use legacy technology that hurts Linux and macOS users
• Follows the Unix philosophy of just doing one thing and doing it well

Installing

Warning
No support will be provided on any Dalamud official support channel. Please use the Issues page or Discord for any support requests. Do NOT ask for support on the XIVLauncher & Dalamud Discord, as support for 3rd-party plugins is not provided there.

Install instructions can be found here, but are indentical to any other 3rd-party plugin repository.

How to build

Just run

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/marzent/IINACT.git
cd IINACT
dotnet build

on a Linux, macOS or Windows machine with the .NET 7 SDK.

You will need to be able to reference Dalamud as well, meaning having an install of XL or XOM on Windows and macOS respectively. On Linux DALAMUD_HOME needs to be correctly set (for example $HOME/.xlcore/dalamud/Hooks/dev).

FAQ

Where are my logs?

• In your Documents folder. For Windows users, C:\Users\[user]\Documents\IINACT. For Mac/Linux users, same thing, but relative to your wine prefix.

Are these logs compatible with FFLogs? Can I use the FFLogs Uploader?

• Yes! 100% compatible.
