Update: Verion 0.4b!! Download it here

Whats it Do You Ask?

This Allows you to easily copy dats from one location to the Game folders, without manually having to do so.

You set your Mod Folder/FFXI Instal/Backup Folder. When you copy over a dat it backs up the orginal. And you can later auto restore it to its orginal location With Just a Simple Click.

It loads the list files MV uses (modified slightly) and then you just select your race and which equipment part you want to swap. There are 9 Slots for Swaping. Or you can use the new List Swaping Functinality.

Changes:
- More or less a total Overhall of Image/Functionality/Code.
- Now able to Load/Save/Copy List file sets for mass swaping (uses the same backup functionality as before If there is no existing backup one will be created, this backup method for list swaping will probally be changed in some way later on) *Please make suggestions for methods you may like for it to be backedup, ex A special list folder created each time in the backup folder.*

The files are saved as .fdcl (FFXI Dat Copier List) its just a comma delimeted text file so you do not have to use the program to create a list. Just create one first for an example

What does this mean? You can now easily Save a Backup List for the orginal files to swap back before a Patch, Then after the patch using another list swap all your mods back quick and simple!!!

- Added Menu's For Everything, So the Main Window Doesn't Look Cluttered.
- You can now Manually choose for each Import slot for the race you select Face/Head/Body/etc
- Haha The exe file size broke 1mb ^^

Upcomming:
- Version Checking Feature
- Automatic List File Downloads.
- A possible change in some way to the List Fiel Backup Method.
- Anything else anyone suggests if possible, and who knows what else

As usual I have tested it. But as always it can't hurt to manually back up your files. If something does freakisly happen to a file of yours and its not backed up right please let me know what happened. You can also just simply ask somone for a copy of the file. If you find any bugs at all please post them here or PM them to me.
For now using temp hosting for the file till my site comes back up (soon I hope <sigh>)

Exactly What the Name Says. It Allows you to easily copy dats from one location to the Game folders, without manually having to do so.

You set your Mod Folder/FFXI Instal/Backup Folder. When yo copy over a dat it backs up the orginal. And you can later auto restore it to its orginal location With Just a Simple Click.

It loads the list files MV uses (modified slightly) and then you just select your race and which equipment part you want to swap. There are 9 Slots for Swaping. Or you can use the new List Swaping Functinality. (updating main psot with this)

When i try to open it , i get this error msg


and i've got alot of questions, first i tried the wings dat costum and it worked (because i got the the wings file switched to DAT. Already) the body i'm wearing was number 28 dat, so i renamed the wing 28 and replaced it

in game i got the wings ok np but now if i want to get my file back o.O how? can you tell me step by step since i replaced my original dat. is that what "Back up" means? to get back yor original dat?

and my model viewer is kinda old and has limited equipments where i can get new one?

[Mellowy]

Backup means save original somewhere else.

So if you've already replaced it without backuping manually, the program won't magically create a new original file for you.

Unless someone can get me a copy of his original DAT?

1. Download COMDLG32.OCX (right click the text on the left and save to your Desktop).

2. Back up your current copy of COMDLG32.OCX and copy the new version to the same file location. This file should be located in the WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory on your C: drive (for Windows NT and 2000: \WINNT\system32).

3. Using your mouse, click on the "Start" button and then click on "Run".

4. According to your Operating System, type the following command to register this library file:

Windows 95, 98, or Me:
regsvr32 \windows\system\COMDLG32.OCX

Windows NT or 2000:
regsvr32 \WINNT\system32\COMDLG32.OCX

Windows XP:
regsvr32 \windows\system32\COMDLG32.OCX

5. You should see a message saying "DllRegisterServer ... succeeded"

If you are getting an error telling you that the file is missing, then you are not typing the command in correctly. You will need to type it in *exactly* as as shown above for your operating system.

* Please note that there is a SPACE after "regsvr32" and before the rest of the command.

You should probably copy and paste the command so that you are unable to mistype it.

Download COMDLG32.OCX now (right-click on the link and select "Save Target as...").


If you didn't backup your orginal file you will need to ask somoen to upload it for you.

This is how my Backup Feature works (basicly identical to Model Viewer)

When you Copy A dat over from The Main or List Screen.
It Checks to See if there is A file in your backup folder named that there already or not (It backs up the File fromt he FFXI Directory)
The File is then saved as ROM-Folder-File.dat in the backup folder you set.
From here you can manually restore the file if you really wanted or, you can go into My program click Restore Backups and Choose the Backup you want to restore.
It then moves the File Back into the FFXI Folder and Deletes the backup.
