CBT – Local build (Dalamud API 14)

This copy of CBT has been updated to Dalamud API level 14 so it runs on current FFXIV/Dalamud. The upstream repo may still ship API 13, which shows as "outdated and incompatible."

Install the built plugin

Option A: Dev plugins folder (recommended)

1. Create the folder (if it doesn’t exist):
   • %AppData%\XIVLauncher\addon\Hooks\dev\plugins\CBT\
2. Copy everything from:
   • CBT\bin\Release\ into that folder, so the DLL and manifest are directly inside ...\plugins\CBT\:
   • CBT.dll
   • CBT.json
   • CBT.deps.json
   • Media\ (folder)
   • Data\ (folder)
   • images\ (folder)
3. In-game: enable test/development plugins in Dalamud settings if required, then enable CBT.

Option B: Install from zip

A zip is built at:

• C:\Users\flick\Desktop\MyDalamudPlugins\release-zips\CBT.zip

If your Dalamud/plugin installer supports “Install from custom zip” or “Install from file”, use that and select CBT.zip. Otherwise use Option A.

Rebuild after changes

From repo root:

cd "C:\Users\flick\Desktop\MyDalamudPlugins\repos\CBT-main"
dotnet build -c Release

Output: CBT\bin\Release\. Copy those contents into ...\dev\plugins\CBT\ again (or re-zip and reinstall).

Changes made for API 14

• CBT.csproj: Dalamud.NET.Sdk 13.0.0 → 14.0.1, net9.0-windows → net10.0-windows, version set to 0.0.3.7.
• CBT.json: DalamudApiLevel 13 → 14, added InternalName, ApplicableVersion.
• PluginAddressResolver.cs: Added using Dalamud.Plugin.Services so ISigScanner resolves (moved in API 14).
• PluginManager.cs: LocalPlayer now uses Service.ObjectTable.LocalPlayer instead of obsolete IClientState.LocalPlayer.
