Post Patch In Game Bug

I have submitted this bug to the official forums, but does anyone else have this type of issue? It seems like I'm the only one that does.
Since no one else has even mentioned it anywhere.

Random Skipping/FPS Drop
When you're attacking something the game will skip as in like losing FPS for a split second this happens at random intervals and i can reproduce it at any givin time, then the skipping stops for a little bit and then starts again. This happens any time you're in a battle it seems to have started happening since the chat log windows were split... even if you put them back to default it still does it... I assume the issue is within the chat log and how things are sent to the player via chat log. This is pretty frustrating as well... I have tried it on both of my PC's both running windows. It never happened prior to the recent update.

I never Noticed that and I don't use windower but I can say the linkshell naming list is messed up it is no longer in alphabetical order.

It might very well be a problem with an addon/plugin. Sounds like something I've experienced with what I assume was GearSwap when I was first using it.

It happens in vanilla FFXI as well my post was based on that since i posted it on the official forums. sorry for the miscommunication.

I knew this update broke something. Its annoying :/

Finally someone with the same issue, Glad it's not just me... I just don't know how no one else sees it :/

Yeah, I've been having the issue as well. I seem to notice it most when others, both players and mobs, use WSs, but that might just be when I'm focused most on movement.

Edit: I use vanilla XI.

Looks like they accepted it as a bug. so just playing the waiting game now.

Still suffering from this.

ps. not fun

The LS list being out of order sucks too.

It's making me want to quit to be honest. Or at least take a long break until they decide to fix it. Seems like whenever something goes on in the chat log or too much stuff happens at once you will freeze for a second or two. then it all catches back up only to do it again within a few seconds.

Anyone that's having this issue can you go to the official forums and like the post, Hopefully it'll gain more attention? There is a similar post on the JP forums as well. Thanks ^^

Like the LS community.
