Our verdict on LMeter
LMeter is an open-source Dalamud plugin for Final Fantasy XIV that displays ACT combat-log data in-game. It is designed for players who want a focused live combat meter rather than a web-based overlay, with support for damage-per-second and healing-per-second views. The project’s core scope is narrow: live damage and healing metrics for FFXIV, presented through a customizable meter interface.
Its main strength is presentation. LMeter turns ACT data into DPS and HPS meters whose appearance can be customized, while Dalamud provides the distribution channel and ACT supplies the combat-log data. That combination suits players who already use these tools and want their combat metrics available inside the game. The published project details identify Final Fantasy XIV as the supported game and live overlay display as the relevant category capability.
The installation path is an important consideration. LMeter is distributed through the author’s third-party Dalamud plugin repository rather than the standard repository, so it fits users comfortable with that setup. It is also a specialized choice: players seeking a compact FFXIV ACT meter should find its feature set aligned with that goal, while those needing broader game support or a wider analysis workflow should consider a different type of tool. The repository metadata lists version 0.4.4.0, while another metadata file references version 1.0.0.0.
