@@PwnstarrGaming are u really sure that if i wont tell anyone i got a damage meter that i cant get banned ? because i really want a damage meter but i am scared that i could get banned and lose everything from it
@@joelangman6722 I coulodn't find it at all, so I just ignored it to see if it would still work, and it did. I'm not sure if that was an older version and it changed or if I'm missing something, but it works so I'm not woo worried. glad it worked for you too!
Hi thanks for the video! I’m not sure if I did something wrong, but I can’t seem to find the ffxiv overlay settings, where you changed the target settings. Any ideas?
@@Blitzkreig85 Fixed it by downloading the ACT plugin from that same website, manually adding it and puting it ontop of the plugin load listing and run it all again as admin.
Not entirely sure what I'm doing wrong, but I don't have the tabs "FFXIV Settings" or "FFXIV Overlay Settings" in "Plugins" ... so I cannot change settings for it... I have only Plugin Listing, FFXIV ACT Plugin, OverlayPlugin.dll and OverlayPlugin WSServer... nothing else. Edit: Don't even have the button to the top right for "Show FFXIV Overlay"
I believe they've just changed the layout of ACT since the video release, in the Overlay Settings he was turning off seeing health bars which can now be added the same way as the dps meter
I followed this guide but got stuck. I have encountered a problem where the plugin required (77) is not anywhere in the list. I have not seen anyone else have this problem and npt sure what to do Scrolling through this list, there is no number 77 and so I cannot continue with the installation and asking on the Discord has just been met with silence :(
Great video, but one question: after following your steps, I didn't have a tab for FFXIV Overlay Settings. Was there an extra step or perhaps did they change something in the software?
I'm following your instructions, but when I close the app after getting the two plugins and restart it, I get an error message (Parsing Event Not Handled) that I "do not appear to have any log parsing plugins enabled." When I go to the plugin window, I have no options for the FFXIV Settings or FFXIV Overlay Settings. Any ideas how I could fix this?
@@PwnstarrGaming I think my issue is that I was using the app directly instead of the launcher. Not entirely sure, but I have it working now. Thank you for your video, this was extremely easy to follow and understand.
I am new to FF14, coming from WoW where damage meters are all-important. This has been one thing I've missed so much, and you made it quite easy to setup! Thanks a ton!
When I start the program, I don't have the "FFXIV Overlay Settings" tab at all and it's an important tab. Can anyone tell me what I am missing here as to why I don't have the tab?
This explained how to fix some of the issues, but patch 6.2 also broke the callouts. So far there have been no FAQs on what plugin that comes with and I'd rather not risk breaking something by installing every plugin and hoping for the best.
Hey, hopefully someone can help me, once i have DL'd the plugins, i do not get the tab bar 'FFXIV Overlay Settings'?! Anyone help me out as to why, i have followed the video verbatum.
Hey great video, I was able to install and have it work so easily! I just had one question. I've been checking around all the settings and what not and I really wanted to see if I could extend the time before the encounter resets and starts back from 0. I was doing a trial and the boss had like a 20 second down time, in that time it split the encounter and started from 0 again. I'd really prefer for the trial to be just one big encounter in the DPS Meter. Instead of it being like 3 different encounters. Although it might have been because I was doing the Mog King Trial and it kept splitting because of the different phases with different moogles to fight. Since you don't just fight the Mog King. I was just hoping that I could have 1 encounter for the whole trial. Sorry if I wrote this super confusing, it was hard to properly write my question.
I don't know if you ever figured it out but, in case you didn't, go into your options and find "Main table/Encounters" and then click the "General" tab under it. There you will see something that says "Number of seconds to wait after the last combat action to begin a new encounter". Set this to whatever number you would prefer. I usually set this to 30 seconds.
I am having an issue where I cannot change what shows in the window, for example who is displayed in the overlay window, and I do not have the ffxiv settings tab in the plugins section. I did exactly what you did in this video and double checked to make sure all filed were not blocked. It just shows FFXIV ACT Plugin and the overlay windows but no FFXIV settings tab. Any ideas on what is going wrong? I want to have it just show my party but atm it shows everything including NPCs.
Followed your instructions to letter, but the info window didnt disapear when the encounter started. Turns out there was a hidden firewall popup that you had to click allow on, works now.
im using the same layout/skin as the one you chose and just ran my first dungeon with the meter. Is there a way to make it so that when you use LB it doesnt split the LB damage % for your personal % ?
3:30 what exactly does this do? I didn't do this the first time I downloaded it but on a different computer now and needed another video on redownloading it so I found yours, but I don't recall needing to do this. You should however, add some kind of clause about firewall settings especially when on windows, you'll most likely need to make a rule in windows defender firewall to allow notifications from ACT as this is how you get updates for the app, and firewall will block them if it's not allowed.
If you have enable click through checked you wont be able to adjust so make sure to toggle it off/on accordingly. I also noticed not all overlays adjust the same way depending on which style you choose. Lmk if this doesnt help. Happy to keep troubleshooting
@@PwnstarrGaming Got it right now thanks :-) it wasnt "click through", you are just able to adjust in the very corners of the window, at the sides it wont work, was a bit confusing, but now it works. Thanks for responding so fast, great Video also, thanks for that :-)
Is there a way to keep the encounter going for the entire dungeon? Mine seems to reset every other encounter throughout the dungeon. It'd be nice to know the overall stats of the entirety and not 6 different encounters during one dungeon.
Just installed it. But im having an issue where its in a constant state of showing "This section will disappear when an encounter begins". Tried going into a dungeon, no change. Any ideas?
thank you so much! for some reason I don't have overlay settings but maybe its just a newer version? everything works perfect though so thanks again :)
It keeps crashing for me when I select "New" and pick a preset skin overlay. I also run it as Admin. I give up. It shouldn't be this hard haha. Im use to Curse addons from Wow. Just download and Enable the addons.

Same it's not there for me
Same I don’t see it either
Same here
Same problem, I think it might be due to an update
legit most succinct/clear video on this, great job dude!
Seems like after installing plugins I do not have FF14 overlay settings as a tab. Seems to work regardless, but I can't do any of those settings
having the same problem
@otas 2:10 get plugins first.
Same problem..??
any1 got a solution or does it not matter?
It doesn't matter :) enjoy
FF14+Others #77 does not show up in the list of plugin titles, lol
I'm not finding the FFXIV OVERLAY right after downloading the plug ins and i cant find where to get it
straight to the point with just the right amount of information need thanks
glad it was helpful!
Finally! Just the thing I’ve been waiting for.

They changed something, now to get those health options you have to add a plugin like the dps meter

As a note, you now need to launch ACT before launching ffxiv for it to work as of 6.35 I believe.
thank you !

Glad it was helpful!
sorry but is there a setting in the overlay where I can just display party's info?

Nothing. You don't need the overlay settings tab now. Skip that part
