i seem to be having trouble with the dats plugin i can only get it to over ride 1 dat rom/119/51.dat which holds the games english font and pointer data that one works but when i try to mod the hume female body rom/32/111.dat or the legs rom/33/60.dat and i did /load Dats in my defualt.txt but the dat swaps dont happen for the body or the legs and i know they work cause if i replace them in the ffxi folder the change shows up so im not sure why the dat plugin will replace one dat and not another when the dat clearly works

This is a known issue at the moment with Dats, I had two different versions at one point due to how FFXI wants to be picky on how it reads the dat files. One hooking method allowed things like fonts and such to be hooked, but not models/animations/etc. The other method was the exact opposite. I haven't had time to sit down and debug things a bit more thoroughly to get both methods working how I wanted yet. But I hope to be able to in the near future.

Dats has been replaced with XiPivot at this point, so will mark this as resolved/closed.
