FINAL FANTASY XIV Online

FINAL FANTASY XIV Online

So which mods are "allowed"
I understand that mods that will make you get 100% loot changes are pretty much cheating, as well as all mods are a reason to get banned, but are mods that you can install that the devs give them a "pass"? Or are mods allowed in private servers? If they are I haven't played this game yet

You got some stupid people that think "hair mods" Are cheating

To justify the use of cheats

If you just want to download some cute outfits Hair mods and / or Boobies

Go ahead you can No one can really stop it

If you want to use that automatic crafting thing Automatic gathering thing

You're putting your own Account at risk.

Just be smart about it

By being SMART, it means that DONT TELL IT TO THE PUBLIC! Dont use /chairsit on things you can't, dont put your "Mare" on /Say, dont /say "that or THIS" make the game easy. Thats it!

so visuals are "fine" and mods that modify how the game works are more risky?

So chair set. Let's you do what it says on the tin It lets you sit like you were sitting on a chair anywhere However It will show everyone that you're doing it
Mare or not


And Mare is a pulg in But let's you share your code with other people And you.
Can see their mods that they have currently on

For example

You see me in game and I have a The afro hair equipped But in reality on my screen I have an hair mod That gives me a wicked huge mohawk

Once I trade you my marecode And you give me your miracode

You will download my look on your game and see me the same way.I see myself and vice versa

This also works with custom emotes Outfits bodies Even custom animations for skills all work over mare

There's no situation where the GMs will give you a "pass."

There's also no real difference between a simple UI mod and a cheat engine. They're all ToS violations and will all result in suspension or bans if you're caught.

So, don't get caught. Square doesn't scan for third party software so the only way you'll get suspended is if you hand them evidence.

By the word of the law, no mods are allowed.

By the spirit of reality, they don't have, at least to our knowledge, any type of spyware to detect mods.

Yeah I tell that to all the identification keys that were left on peoples loadstones for mare and all the people who have mare in there search info

Why?Yes, technically, it's against the tos They don't seem too keen on banning people over hair mods

( Like ninety eight percent of balmung all uses mare)

And that would be a lot of revenue to ban for hair or ui mods

i see causality already comming in here.
in theory are probably all mods which affect only your character (like cloth mods) etc. probably fine. reshade and gshade (like SE called them screenshot tools or something like that xD) aswell because they give you no adventage over other players.

it starts to go into the negative as soon it is nsfw and really bad if you use mods/plugins which are like deadly boss mods in WoW etc. those are considered cheating.

while mods (like you noticed on your own) and plugins are in general forbidden, are there certain grey areas, you would still get suspended for it but, probably not that bad then if you would straight up cheat. one of my FC members got suspended for 3 days because he was dumb and shown a screenshot in public. it was only cloth modding, so was it aswell written in his suspention notice via mail that it is forbidden to mod the game etc. vs that, like long ago in 2023 was it i think, cought SE (because of a mass report) someone literarly cheating with plugins and he got straight up 10days, still not a permanent ban but what he used was call out plugins for mechanics. am pretty sure that, if square enix would ever cought someone with those plugin mods which tell you exactly where to go BEFORE the mechanic even happens is that a perma ban cause SE considered those plugins/mods clearly as cheating.

causality will 100% show up
weiss Jun 9, 2024 @ 8:49pm 
in short, what i wanted to say is: you will get to 100% suspended if SE catches you.
tho SE seems to take into account how severe the violation is and wether it gives you an adventage over other players or not.

therefore might you get only for 1~3 days suspended cause you modded cloth etc. while they would probably give you 10days or worse if they catch you with a plugin which they consider soft cheating/cheating.
