    Why no GLogitech® GamePanel™ LCD Technology support?

    If you don't have a Logitech G15, you might not know what I'm talking about. The Logitech G15 keyboard has a little LCD display, that shows certain information. Current media, PC performance, a clock, and so on. During games, it can show a bunch of ingame information. Imagine shooting games displaying ammo of current weapons, and MMORPG showing your character's attributes (Str, Agi etc)

    Since I got myself one of those awesome Keyboards (Logitech G15), I've had some great fun playing games who support this, like WoW and UT2004. A couple games who didn't, that I also played, had a tiny little update and then they also supported this, thus allowing several game informations to be displayed on the LCD display. It would be so awesome if SE could make something out of this for FFXI. I don't know if this is a lot to do, but after having thought about it logically, I came to the conclusion that this shouldn't be a difficult update.
    So my question to Square-Enix is, and I actually regret that I haven't put it in the list to be asked at the Festival.. Will there ever be an update covering GamePanel support?

    I'm sure players could whip up a windower mod for it.

      Right, so where is it? I don't see anything on the windower forums. What if I don't use Windower?

      It's a good question non-the less isn't it. You could say that to nearly every question.
      Q:Why don't higher level Thf don't get "Flee II" ?

      A:I'm sure someone can make a speedhack.

        Because SE hates the client.

          How many people actually own one of these things, though? If anything, you should bug Logitech and tell them to contact Square-Enix to bug them to support their specialized hardware. It'll be much more effective than asking S-E to do it as an end user.

            Probably the same old tired "We want to keep the game the same on all systems" answer or something. Besides, maybe I'm not thinking broadly enough but what all could be put on that tiny little screen that would be so incredibly useful?

              I'm just fine with not having support. I use the screen to run haste and protect timers using the packaged chronograph plugin. Very nice to have warning when protect is about to drop from the party.

              As for will it ever be supported? I'm fairly confident no. If it was supported, SE I'm sure would feel obligated to add the same functionality to the PS2 and Xbox360 version, and that's probably more headache than they care to go through.

                            Here ya go. Basically this thread is solved. Let people make the content they want for their games. We didn't have any way to window FFXI or alt-tab, so ppl created a way. SE doesn't have GLogitech support, so users made their own.

                            You use a PC mang, we don't need to rely on only SE.

                            P.S. I don't condone any kind of online cheating so don't take my post as suggesting anything of that sort.

                              yes, except SE seems to think that anything that enhances FFXI and improves on it's faults is cheating.
