Equipment
Note: This section is currently incomplete, and may be missing information for weapons, demihumans, other races and slot types.
This is useful for people implementing similar TexTools or FFXIV Explorer functionality, and it’s actually trivial to do so. Before you can do so, you must be able to read Excel data sheets.
Read item data
The Excel sheet you’re interested is called item and since it also contains localized names make sure to choose the relevant language sheet. Once you have done so, you’re interested in a couple of columns (tested as of 6.1):
- Column 9 (String)
- This is the name of the item.
- Column 17 (Unsigned 64-bit Integer)
- This is the slot id, explained below.
- Column 47 (Unsigned 64-bit Integer)
- This is the primary model data, explained below.
- Column 48 (Unsigned 64-bit Integer)
- This is the secondary model data, explained below.
Reading the slot id
You’ll get an integer from the slot item column, and this corresponds to a specific slot:
| Integer | Slot |
|---|---|
| 3 | Head |
| 4 | Body |
| 5 | Hands |
| 7 | Legs |
| 8 | Feet |
| 9 | Earring |
| 10 | Neck |
| 11 | Wrists |
| 12 | Rings |
Reading the model data
There are two separate integers, primary and secondary. Right now, we’re only interested in the first 2 bytes of the primary integer - this is your primary ID.
Grabbing the equipment path
chara/equipment/e{model_id:04d}/model/c{race_id:04d}e{model_id:04d}_{slot}.mdl
{race_id} is the race-specific equipment you want.
{model_id} is the primary model id.
Note: :04d means that it must be padded with 4 zeroes.
