Final Fantasy XIV AutoLogin

Automatically start the Final Fantasy XIV Launcher, login and start the game. I wrote this script since it was becoming quite a hassle (read: am lazy) to login to my password manager, find my FFXIV account, copy its password and paste it into the FFXIV Launcher.

Usage

• Make sure you have installed Python and the required modules, see below
• Change settings in FFXIV_Login_Settings.py to reflect launcher location and password
• If your account has an authenticator with one-time passwords, please see below for additional instructions. Otherwise leave token_2fa empty!
• It is recommended to create a shortcut to the main script; use this as your FFXIV shortcut from now on
• Launch the script and let it do its magic :)

Note - Your password (and optionally 2FA token) will be stored as plaintext in the file, store this file and script in a safe location on your PC!

Using one-time passwords

In order to use Square Enix' one-time passwords (2FA), it is easiest to remove and re-install the authenticator as follows:

• Remove your existing authenticator from your Square Enix account
• Start the process to setup a new software authenticator
• Click on "unable to Scan QR Code" when the QR code is given
• Copy the code, without spaces into both your 2FA app of choice, e.g. Google Authenticator, and the settings file for this script under token_2fa
• Setup the authenticator as usual and it should now be synced with script

Requirements

Written for Python 3.8.x. Requires the following modules (see requirements.txt):

• PyAutoGUI
• psutil
• (optional) PyOTP - only required if you use one-time passwords
