Whats the procedure to install this update?
Thanks Extract it in to your FFXI folder:
If you are 64bit then here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI
32 bit should just be like this:
C:\Program Files\PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI
If you use xp be careful not to replace things wrong. Extracting to will work but if you just drag and drop it may not merge like windows 7 will.
If you have win7 you can also just extract it to some random folder and literally highlight all the rom folders and drop them in to the above locations. It'll pop up a warning saying this folder already contains these folders and asks if you want to merge. Say yes. Then it will say there is already files with the same name. At the bottom there is a check box for "Do this for all conflicts" check that box and then hit the top option for "Move and replace".
This will merge everything together.
Feel free to ask for further instruction if you have a different set up.
Did this, and now I have to download 35000 files instead of 4000 <.<
Note, I had a broken dat or something, and my FFXI folder is in my steam folder.
This happened to me as well, except it was still 3500 instead of 35000. I merged the folders and everything, but it started the download so I'll just wait the 5 hours I have remaining.

Redownloaded the winrar file and re-extracted it fine this time, but still 35000 files. I give up. I'll play SEs way and wait a lifetime to play again.

So just using winrar isn't sufficient?

What OS are you on? And yeah, steam is different.
I probably should have put more warnings in on this ^^;

So just using winrar isn't sufficient? Winrar should work just fine so long as you are extracting to and merging rather than overwriting the entire file contents.
Krizz's guide is way more indepth and has pictures too, you you might read that for a clearer understanding before attempting these methods.

I'm not trying to be an *** or be rude or anything, but after reading posts on the official Forums as well as PJ shouts on the home page, I'm actually stunned at the ignorance of some people.
1. We were told months ago RUN and GEO were not getting Relics or Emps, but would get a Mythic "equivalent" which, along with AF/AF2/Emp and RUN & GEO Genkai 5, has yet to be implemented.
2. It has been stated repeatedly that the promo codes for Choco shirt /beret WILL NOT work until SoA content goes live.
3. It has been stated repeatedly that the end of the version update DOES NOT mark activation of SoA content.
Yet people are still asking the same questions instead of looking for the answer for 10 seconds. Look for answers and use common sense, people, read the system message upon logging in FFS.

so.. i'm allready over 12 hours into the update. got disconnected over 15 times and had to start over after failed check files > download files jump more then 50 times,, still got more then 3 hours to download.
that'll be more then enough time to catch up to the first emergency server maintenance after the content's gone live..

Isn't there a code that gives you both? If it involves the shirt, it won't work.

Are they going to put relics and empys for RUN and GEO?

7zip is arguably better than WinRAR. Has more options to un-compress files.
