Has anyone else had issues with Timers plugin since the update?

Since the May 18th update, Protect 5 and Shell 5 are showing up on my Timers again despite being in my SpellBuffList with whitelistmode on false. It clutters my timers window like mad when playing RDM in Limbus. Was working fine on Sunday.

Edit: I also noticed it's converting my "Avatar's Favor" to "Avatar's Favor" so there's clearly some kind of change in how it's reading the settings file. Removing Avatar's Favor from the list doesn't eliminate the bug though.

Here's the relevant bit:

Code

        <WhitelistMode>false</WhitelistMode>
        <!--List of ability names to display recasts for if in whitelistMode and to exclude otherwise-->
        <AbilityRecastFilter />
        <!--List of spell names to display recasts for if in whitelistMode and to exclude otherwise-->
        <SpellRecastFilter />
        <!--List of ability names to display buffs for if in whitelistMode and to exclude otherwise-->
        <AbilityBuffFilter>Afflatus Solace|Afflatus Misery|Avatar&apos;s Favor|Light Arts|Dark Arts|Sublimation|Composure</AbilityBuffFilter>
        <!--List of spell names to display buffs for if in whitelistMode and to exclude otherwise-->
        <SpellBuffFilter>Protect V|Shell V|Reraise III|Utsusemi: Ni|Utsusemi: Ichi|Blink|Stoneskin</SpellBuffFilter>

Doesn't work for me either since the update.

Arcon has confirmed it as a known issue and it's being looked into.

Greetings, adventurers. Windower team here!

Welcome to the "Windower v4 - Dev Tracker" thread.
While Windower v5 is on the horizon, Windower v4 is still very much actively mantained, but after the closure of windower forums there hasn't been a central hub to announce all the updates to Windower itself and its collection of addons and plugins.
This thread is now going to be that place.

What is Windower?

For those who may be new here - hey, don't laugh, there's still returners and new player joining the game - Windower is a powerful third-party launcher and enhancement tool for Final Fantasy XI, able to provide a variety of features, plugins, and addons that enhance gameplay, add features to the game interface, and generally make life in Vana'diel more enjoyable.

I'm not sure I get it really

The Windower Experience is composed of three parts:

- The Launcher: this is Windower itself, launches the game for you, lets you launch more than one instance of FFXI at once, lets you use Addons and Plugins, lets you save configuration Profiles, and so on.

- Addons: written in Lua, open source, take advantage of the Windower Lua API, and are the main providers of additional functionality to FFXI. Windower hosts a number of "official addons" that are downloadable directly from the launcher itself. At the same time, there's an endless supply of unofficial addons, written by third-party developers, that can be found by searching the internet. Many have dedicated threads here on FFXIAH itself.

- Plugins: closed-source and only available in .dll format, they provide functionalities that cannot be provided through the Windower Lua API. Nowadays most plugins have an equivalent addon that provides the same features, but there's a few notable exceptions.

I'm still confus D:

This thread is not the place for support, bug reports, feature suggestions, FAQs, explanations, clarifications, etc, so if you still have doubts here's a few places where you can continue learning about Windower, or request support with whatever issue you might have:

Windower Official Website
Windower GitHub
Windower Discord

Feel free to click on these links in-depth information and support. Now, I don't know how to finish this post, but I believe the last sentence should be something like this:

Enjoy your time in Vana'diel!

Sincerely,
- the Windower Dev Team
