VisitAwowLab Overlay vs IINACT
What both publish
| Fact | AwowLab Overlay | IINACT |
|---|---|---|
| Installation | The Windows release is a single self-contained executable that requires no installation and automatically locates the Logs folder. | Installation requires setting up Dalamud, adding IINACT’s third party plugin repository, and installing the plugin through the plugin installer. |
| License | The repository is licensed under GNU Affero General Public License 3.0; its bundled Noto Sans font uses SIL Open Font License 1.1. | The GitHub repository lists the project under the GPL-3.0 license. |
| Performance | The developer reported that a 10 GB log took roughly 0.3–1 second for the initial segment scan, with the main slowdown occurring on very large old logs. | The maker says IINACT has zero performance impact, including under Wine and Rosetta 2. |
| Purpose | AwowLab Overlay is a lightweight, always-on-top damage meter for World of Warcraft that reads the combat log as the game writes it. | IINACT is a Dalamud plugin for Final Fantasy XIV that replaces Advanced Combat Tracker. |
| Support | The project welcomes issues and pull requests, and development occurs in a private monorepo shared with the full AwowLab application. | The installation guide directs users to report problems on GitHub. |

IINACT suits Final Fantasy XIV players who want an ACT-like parser compatible with existing tooling. Users who need visual overlays must also use a separate overlay application.
