TARU FOR A DAY!
It's really early, and I'm pretty bored, so I decided to make a LJ Entry..
I will dub this entry... "Taru for a Day!"
I was just browsing some forums, when I stumbled upon a certain post labeled "Race/Gender Converter". Inside was a simple and easy to use program made by some JP, which instead of changing all your game's .DAT's, it merely Reconfigures the Values in your FFXI Registry. Needless to say, I had to try it out!

Preparing at Dynamis XD

Atfirst I just made it so every Hume was a Tarutaru...
Then I got more creative and decided to just make everyone Tarutaru for Dynamis!
Can you spot the real Taru's?



Full Attack!!!!

Here comes the Taru(fake) Brigade

Just a Random

That Dynamis run was rather amusing, seeing a bunch of little taru's ganging up on big demons was hilarious.. even though I was for the most part, paying attention to pulls.





At the end of the run, I was walking around Jeuno looking for people I knew and saw as Taru's..

Sup Tarutaru Ceph o_o

on to website, it's on the top right.

Unzip these files to the Final Fantasy XI folder inside the Playonline/SquareEnix folder, then run the .exe file from there

--READ BEFORE USAGE-- PC VERSION ONRY

This is a nice program I found on a Japanese website that allows you to change one race to another or switch heads. Please note, changes that this program makes is seen by YOU only. Basically, this program will tell your computer which files to load for which character. It does NOT switch .dat files, but it alters the Ftable.dat and Vtable.dat files instead. Right now, I changed my Hume into a Tarutaru, so now most hume males I see are now Tarutaru, but those who were already Tarutaru are still Tarutaru. Also, if you are already in game when making these changes, exit out to POL then start FFXI again.

Usage

The drop down menu on the first tab is what you will change a race into, if you see only ???? then it follows the order that you see on the character creation screen. From top down: Male Hume, Female Hume, Male Elvaan, Female Elvaan, Male Tarutaru, Female Taruaru, Mithra, Galka.

The list right underneath the drop down menu is what you want to change, in the same order, but missing Female Tarutaru (they are combined into one). So Male Hume, Female Hume, Male Elvaan, Female Elvaan, Taruaru, Mithra, Galka.

So first select a race to turn into from the drop down menu, then pick which one you are changing, then hit the button underneath to apply the change.

The button all the way on the bottom restores everything that you changed.

Also, the second tab will let you change heads only, in case you're not happy with yours, but remember everyone else sees you with your regular head and body.



if get error make a notepad file put this code in it and rename the file to something like poop.reg and run the registry file if you get an error the first time u run the program

Code Sample
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PlayOnline\InstallFolder]
"1000"="C:\\Program Files\\PlayOnline\\SquareEnix\\PlayOnlineViewer"

Haha awsome, been looking for something like this for awhile, thanks XD

Btw just to add, if using that reg thing to fix the error doesnt work, dump the files in the C:\Program Files\PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI folder and run from there.

It's a nice way to get past the fact that taru are weak pussies, and if it was a real taru dynamis, any time any AOE went off, you'd have a total whipe! >:D

I put it in my FFXI folder (Whcih is d:\ffxi\squareenix\final fantasy xi for me) and it seems to work fine, there's no errors if i can tell... i pick the stuff and it changes them like so-- but the game isn't reflecting the changes. i relog, zone, restart pol, etc, nothing works.. my chars look the same even tho the program deosn't show any difference.

Whenever I click the icon that looks like orange Kanji I get an error message in Japanese, and I can't read japanese.

And whenever I click the raceconv.exe.manifest files it asks me what program I want to open it with.

Make a notepad document and add this exactly, including the space on the 2nd line (4 lines total):

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PlayOnline\InstallFolder]
"1000"="C:\\Program Files\\PlayOnline\\SquareEnix\\PlayOnlineViewer"

Save it as whatever name you want followed by .reg

Save it at the same location you have the .exe program at "RaceConv" the orange lookin thing. once you've done that, go and double click on the .reg file that you have just created, after that, you should be able to use the program.

Okay, got the error message, made the notepad file, copy/pasted that code, saved it as a .reg, and tried to open it.

It's now telling me the file is not a registry script and the file can't be imported. Anyone know what's wrong here?

Doesn't work for me.

Can anyone explain where the Registry is supposed to point? I'm probably having problems because I have 2 copies of POL installed, but only one FFXI Folder, and I've edited the registry so that both versions of POL share the same FFXI Folder.

1. Which Registry Entry does the program look at? I'm assuming the PlayOnline\InstallFolder\1000

2. Where should that Registry Entry point? The POL Viewer folder? The FFXI Folder? The regular SquareEnix Folder? NA or JP Version? I've tried all of these combinations but it still gives me an error about not being able to backup VTABLE.dat
