AVFXTools (Dev moved to https://github.com/0ceal0t/Dalamud-VFXEditor)

VFX viewer and editor for FFXIV

Disclaimer

I cannot overstate how in-progress this is. Here be dragons.

Installation

Go to Releases, and download Setup.exe

Aknowledgements

Parts are stitched together from the code of XIVLauncher and SaintCoinach because I have no idea what I'm doing. Thanks.

TODO

General Everything

  • ⚠️ Need to do another pass through, missed a lot of undocumented block (ex: NoAN in Model Particles is NoANimation)
  • Only output avfx if assigned
  • Rework LiteralEnum

UI Stuff

  • Show unassigned
  • UI and Graphics AVFX need to independent objects (this will allow adding/removing particles without breaking the graphics)
  • Add update button (will sync them: AVFXBase -> AVFXNode -> AVFXBase)
  • Choose local avfx file
  • Choose local mdl file
  • Base parameters
  • Particles
  • Emitters
  • Timelines
  • Binders
  • Effectors
  • Schedulers
  • Textures
  • Models
  • 3D display of models
  • Maybe switch from DragInt/Float to InputInt/Float
  • Separate popups for model / avfx
  • Option to remove model
  • Better theme
  • Choose game location + save settings
  • Scheduler addition + deletion
  • Effector addition + deletion
  • Emitter addition + deletion
  • Timeline addition + deletion
  • Particle addition + deletion
  • Texture addition + deletion

General Graphics

  • ⚠️ random (what do the random types mean)
  • random axis linking
  • fix curves (some subtle issues, need to understand linear/spline/step stuff)
  • gravity / velocity / position / air resistance
  • Make sure bad bindings can be handled
  • Clean up console log
  • Check transformation order. In C#, it's T * R * S (probably)
  • Perspective is off (see Omega), items are foreshortened
  • loop start / end

Particle Graphics

  • ⚠️ so turns out powder particles don't need to have simple animations turned on. oops. rework all of that
  • draw mode (screen, reverse, multiply)
  • culling type
  • is depth test
  • is depth write
  • ⚠️ soft particle
  • tone map
  • ⚠️ how colors / color scale interact
  • brightness
  • ⚠️ fresnel
  • texture normal
  • texture reflection
  • texture palette
  • windmill particles (omega avfx?)
  • laser particles
  • polygon particles
  • p⚠️ olyline particles (needs work, see IR and temperance vfx)
  • lightmodel particle (what's the difference?)
  • morphmodel particle
  • decal particle
  • disc particle (netural sect avfx?)
  • collision
  • rotation base
  • depth clip
  • ⚠️ fix powder particles (gravity, etc)
  • double-check quads (see Ramuh vfx)
  • fix polyline (see IR and temperance vfx)
  • texture filter

Emitter Graphics

  • CreateTime / CreateCount: what do those mean? They already exist elsewhere, why are they in the emitter sub-items?
  • Create Probability
  • Parent Influence Coords / Color (partially done)
  • Influence Coords
  • Influence Coord Binder Position
  • Inherit Parent Life
  • Override Life
  • Parameter Link
  • Start frame
  • Injection angle
  • generate delay
  • generate delay by one
  • local direction
  • any direction
  • ⚠️ cylinder emitter (partially done)
  • ⚠️ sphere emitter
  • cone emitter
  • model emitter
  • How does emitter movement interact with particle movement? are they bound?
  • injection axis (partially done)
  • sound?

Effector Graphics

  • wut.
  • pointlight
  • directional light
  • radial blur
  • black hole
  • camera quake

Timeline Graphics

  • How are emitters with a lifespan created?
  • What does this even mean?
  • clip
  • start / end time
  • parent influence

Scheduler Graphics

  • wut.
  • trigger kicks

Binder Graphics

  • Bone mapping is probably wrong
  • Origin
  • Fitground
  • Damaged circle
  • By name
  • linear
  • spline
  • camera
  • bind to character / target
