Chronicle - Mission/Quest Tracking

I decided to finally do some of the quests in this game, but instead, I ended up making an addon to track the progress of missions/quests with a full UI, providing in-game walkthroughs, searching, filtering, sorting...

I have yet to do any actual quests.

Anyway, here it is:

https://github.com/jintawk/ffxi-chronicle

You can find install/usage instructions in the README

Disclaimer:

Due to the very large nature of missions/quests, I can guarantee there will be issues with some of the quests. A lot of edge cases had to be handled, such as the quest "The Rivalry/The Competition" which is actually 2 separate quests as far as the game is concerned, but you can only complete one. I imagine there are other such edge cases I am not aware of. Please let me know of any issues here or via Github issues.

There are also a lot of quests in the game data that you cannot complete, such as the "Mystery of Fire/Water..." quests, which were interesting to read about - they still exist in game data but cannot be completed. These are ignored by the addon.

Walkthrough info was gathered from BGWiki which I believe is fine so long as I credit the wiki for it, which i have done in the README.

Cheers

Super freakin cool! Nicely done!

This is really good. Thank you for building this.

Small update pushed

1.1.4

• Mutually exclusive quests "Her Memories" / "Elder Memories" now supported properly

• Mog garden quests now tracked, previously they all reported uncompleted

Thanks to HiPotion for reporting

Elder Memories is exclusive with The Old Lady, not Her Memories iirc(?)

Yeah that's right, I just didn't explain myself very well

The addon supports these 3 mutually exclusive quest groups:

1)
"The Rivalry"
"The Competition"

2)
"Elder Memories"
"The Old Lady"

3)
"Her Memories Carnelian Footfalls"
"Her Memories Azure Footfalls"
"Her Memories Verdure Footfalls"

nice addon.. only issue i have is my mouse isnt shown when i hover over. so i have to guess where i click :)

Interesting issue! I have seen something similar occasionally but usually refocusing / clicking elsewhere on the screen brings the cursor back. I'll keep an eye on it though. Thanks

I'm working on a similar project but not just an Addon but a whole ecosystem with a web application and other features.

Your addon looks impressive though, good work :)

Sounds cool! I have had similar thoughts about that, looking forward to seeing it.

For this addon, I just specifically wanted to not have to leave the game (alt-tab out) when questing. It's kinda nice for that.

It shows for me:
* All missions done
* 4 missing Provide Coalition quests - Can't go back in time; I checked.
* The Swarm as incomplete - I have the title, but maybe it never marks itself complete?
* A Moonlight Requite - cannot be completed right now, afaik

Thanks for that. I'll be adding the provide coalition quests to the ignore list in the next update. And I'll investigate the other cases too.

I'm fine with it showing the Provide quests and The Swarm, which are both legit, but A Moonlight Requite is debatably a game bug and it might as well be hidden.

Anyway, awesome work!
