XIVLauncher (abbreviated as XL) is a faster launcher for Final Fantasy XIV, with various available addons and enhancements to the game!

Why?

The original FFXIV launcher is slow, tedious, kinda ugly and cannot save your password. This project aims to fix that and add some QoL features to the game that were not there before, such as:

  • Auto-login
  • Fast patching
  • Discord Rich Presence
  • Fast in-game market board price checks
  • Chat filtering
  • Chat bridge to Discord
  • Discord notifications for duties, retainer sales, etc.

Check the settings page and use the /xlhelp command in-game to see available commands.

How to install

Download the latest "Setup.exe" from the releases page and run it. XIVLauncher will start and will be installed to your start menu. To uninstall, you can use the Windows Programs & Apps menu or right click XIVLauncher in your start menu.

Attention! If you receive errors during the installation or if the launcher doesn't work correctly, make sure to check your antivirus first and disable it for XIVLauncher. Many commercial antivirus programs detect XIVLauncher as a false positive. You can check for yourself on VirusTotal. If you need any help with this, please check our FAQ or join our Discord channel.

Plugin API

XIVLauncher lets you use many community-created plugins that improve your game. Please check this site for a list of them.
To make your own in-game plugins for XIVLauncher, check out the API documentation and the sample plugin.

Special thanks to Mino for his hooking base!

Isn't this cheating?

We don't think so - our official guideline for plugins on this launcher is this:

Make sure that your plugin does not directly interact with the game servers in a way that is...
a) outside of specification, as in allowing the player to do things or submit data to the server that would not be possible by normal means or by a normal player on PC or PS4.
b) automatic, as in polling data or making requests without direct interaction from the user which could create unwanted load on the server or give away that XIVLauncher is being used.

We feel like that this offers developers the freedom to improve the game's functionality in ways that SE can't, while officially disallowing plugins that can give unfair advantages over players on other platforms.

Any questions?

Please check out the FAQ, you may find what you need there.
