cleaning files rn so figured I'd grab this data cause it's interesting to me. XIV game folder file sizes from 2.X to 7.X
A chart showing FFXIV game version compared to file size.

6 game versions are present as series: 2.X, 3.X, 4.X, 5.X, 6.X, and 7.X, connecting subsequent game versions across said series.

2.X: the earliest copy shows as 2.0 beta 2, at barely 8GB. 2.X ends at 2.3 at around 12GB.
3.X: the only copy present is 3.0, at around 17GB.
4.X: 3 copies, starting at 4.06 at 31GB, and ending at 4.56 at almost 40GB. There is a large jump from 4.06 to 4.55 (~7GB)
5.X: 5.0 at 46GB, ending with 5.58 at 58GB. This series contains 29 items, showing 5 clear clusters at similar file sizes, indicating hotfixes.
6.X: 6.0 at 68GB, ending with 6.58 hotfix 2 at 82GB. This series contains 26 items with a similar pattern as 5.X.
7.X: 7.0 at 104GB, ending with 7.55 at 129GB. This series contains 38 items with a similar pattern as 5.X.

it's probably more because the gear I tend to use belongs to weaver tbh I just don't have much of a need for armorer

chirp @chirp.bsky.social · 28/07/2026
armorer not really even 100% sure why, it kinda feels too similar to blacksmith even though they have different specialties and it being required for some crafter tools instead of bsm mildly annoys me lol

completed my implementation of expression sliders as best as I could before I'm away for the weekend, now handed to the rest of the team pending testing and polish. hopefully it should be back soon! <3

I want people to be more aware of Ktisis' new features like the Lights, Speech bubbles, and World Object Overlay (or WOO as i call it) so lets start with the lights. Lights now have Textures. These apply to Spot and Area lights. you can even change their color. (1/13)

Little test with Ktisis' UI thang. I like that you can move it around, and also that there's a center button. #VlinStuff

Commission for @kivallier.bsky.social! He's here to break some hearts 🌹 Thank you very much again for commissioning me :3
An Elezen man sits confidently on a bar-stool in the middle of a very out-of-focus saloon lit in moody warm tones. He wears neat clothing with a dark-green vest over a white dress shirt with a ruffled collar, and has one gilded boot planted on the floor, with the other raised up to rest on one of the stool's supporting metal rods. In his hand is a large silver revolver, and held between his grinning white teeth is a rose. In the bottom right corner of the image is a watermark; a bunny icon with the text kaj.blue below it

made more progress today and started addressing the pitfalls mentioned in my last post! expressions can now be mixed with edits made by the user and should apply additively with other sliders, just needs further testing

Quick render of oomf 🔮
A Miqo'te with short hair, an eye patch, a big hat and a dress, all of which are purple (everything about her is, really), is holding a book in front of her in one hand. She's looking away from it at the moment, toward the camera, with a slightly displeased expression. On the underside of her wide brimmed hat shine stars as if it's a window to the night sky. Behind her, an alchemical workshop of sorts can be seen, though it is very out of focus. In the bottom right is a watermark: an icon of a bunny with the text kaj.blue under it.

Played around a bit with textured lights yesterday!

chirp @chirp.bsky.social · 20/07/2026
it's a messy prototype that needs quite a bit of cleanup and refinement before it lands back in Ktisis, but it's a good start. one of the main pitfalls to address currently is being unable to blend it with regular edits to the face by the user, but I have an idea of how to approach that

yesterday I resubbed to ffxiv specifically to help rebuild the expression slider feature from scratch as I had planned when I first prototyped it in 2024, here's a progress update I shared showing roughly 8 hours of work with breaks

my understanding from speaking to others is that it was used to test whether it was possible to integrate into the plugin in a way that worked well with other features, namely posing, before committing time to completing it, with some of the comments later being preserved for annotation purposes

chirp @chirp.bsky.social · 18/07/2026
are you referring to the v0.2 or v0.3 release? fwiw, the infringing feature has been pulled from the current version, in case that's why you ask

chirp @chirp.bsky.social · 18/07/2026
that doesn't excuse its use, however, and I will be working with the team to draft clear guidelines on AI usage, and to ensure that this does not happen again. I'm sorry that an otherwise exciting release had to be tainted like this.

I'll also be clear and say that the final, functional code is *human-written*, but the comments are not. many of you know that this is a feature I prototyped some time ago, which I dug out of my archive and shared with the team in March, helping to serve as a basis. bsky.app/profile/chir...
