Nooo thwarted by 'Chocobo?' Stupid bird (me) forgot to sanitize their strings
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.: 'Meddle.Export\Character-Chocobo?-2025-10-08-21-18-06'. This error is shown due to attempting to write a file to a path with an unsupported character '?'

Honestly I'm just sad my qBittorrent stats were reset (this is a screenshot from 2023). Config for all my docker containers was lost but nothing important was lost.

Hello Chat
I started working on a tutorial for Meddle, covering both basic and advanced uses, hope to have something worthy of sharing by the end of the weekend!

wanted to do a side by side comparison between in-game and Meddle exported (blender w/ MeddleTools v0.0.29 shaders)
Left is Render, Right is In-Game
Manual changes made in blender were boosting lighting intensity (x10 on all imported lights), camera setup, added sun for shadows

oh it died for everyone lol, emergency maint
A menu displaying instance selection, with very few players on each instance (typical player counts 20-100) The menu reads: "To reduce congestion, the area you are about to enter has been divided into multiple identical instances. Select a destination. No preference. Sinus Ardornum i1. (1) Sinus Ardornum i2. (2) (Current instance) Sinus Ardornum i3. (2) Sinus Ardornum i4. (0) Sinus Ardornum i5. (1) Nothing."
