Patch Files Download?

I was going to necro bump Krizz's Download page thread but it was locked so I was unable to post on it.

I recently had a hard drive completely crash on me, so I have no way to recover my FFXI files. I was wondering if the files for quickly downloading the FFXI patch files (The ones that take 10 hours [Estimate] to download from Square-enix's file server) are still floating around anywhere as I noticed they're gone from Krizz's download page, Krizz's Download Page.


Anyone have the .rar's saved or perhaps know where I may download them?

The two files that are currently listed on my site will knock out a large chunk of the files. I haven't done a complete patch set yet. The old files are still there, just not listed anymore due to age.

Thank you!

The files there I did download but there's still a lot and I mean A LOT of files to still download.

These files you linked should help a bunch I'm sure.

why dont you just download the entire collection from krizz page
that way you know you get every update ?

-- edit --
if that collection is still maintained though

if you can wait to tommorow i can make a specialized patch for you that update ffxi ultimate abyssea edition to the newest, so thats the only patch you would need.
unless agian you install is from something older than ultimate aby ed.

I haven't done a consolidated .rar in a while, so half of the files were probably pointless. I removed them since I was going to do a fresh consolidation post-SoA release. I got sidetracked in game and never did it.

It's rarring up now, and I'll probably have it up tomorrow.

Consolidated patch is uploaded. This could cover everything updated after using the 2008 collection.

what tools do you make to make the patches ?

my way seems bit longwinded

i have old ffxi
i have new ffxi

i make a md5 checksum file of all files (in rom and music folders) and compare the two
export the list of files that are ok (not updated) into a text file
then i convert the text file into a batch which deletes all those files that where ok (not updated)
what is left is all new/changed files which is the patch

It will carry over files and folders which people who don't have all expansions should not have. And that *might* (as I don't know what will happen if the game finds the rom folders for a expansion it does not have installed) cause the game to crash ...

Remember the Test server ROM9 folder incident ?

Besides that little detail, your method seems to be perfectly fine.

i didn't kow abuot the testsever rom9 incident ?

but as im guessing have an excessive files should not be a problem, the games access the files needed, and since it will never need the excessive files they will never be needed it will simply just be junk files.

it would be unneeded extra programming for no goal to access all files just for the heck of it when its not needed for the current scene/content being displayed/used/rendered.
