Yup, I used the mega file. Extract to your FFXI folder, logged in and clicked play, only 10 files to download. Took 2 minutes and bam, im ingame.

Yeah but even if I get the update from elsewhere, I can't log into POL viewer cuz it says busy. Unless there's and update to POL too?

Did the mega download and still have to do the 3801 file update

Did you do the file check? If you did redo the mega download and go to the play screen instead of file check. Should leave you with only 24 files to do.

Do I have to delete the files first then re-extract them into the square enix folder or can I just replace them?

I had that for a little while. Just mash "retry" took me 10 minutes compared to the 5+ hours of getting nowhere with SE's *** servers.

Yep downloaded it, 23 files left to update...but of course it takes 16 minutes to do the filecheck, and the update download then times out, after which it does the filecheck all over again...for 16 minutes, after which the update download times out, after which it does the filecheck all over again....never heard of a resume function SE? Or is this just me?

Don't do a file check. Just log in and click play. It'll download 10 files and thats it.

5 minutes left on my 20 minute file check, then hopefully 10-20 files to download and I can get on game. Why did I take off work for 3 days for this? Oh yes, so I can clean the house while updating before my wife gets home and punches me in the face.

For great justice!



Note: While it is in the item list of usable things when you open that list up, it is always greyed out and not able to be used. This is one of the reasons why when you have a test server, it's good to test things. However... OH NOES! Can't have people knowing what the expansion may hold in store before the content goes live on the servers.

It does a file check when trying to launch the game and telling me it needs to update. Believe me it is not my choice...I click Play like I usually would, then it checks FFXI version, tells me there is an update...and goes to check all files...

Ok. So can that download from MEGA work if you downloaded the rest of FFXI from Steam? I copied those ROM folders but after my file check, it still said I had 3500+ files to download, couldn't download the first one, and retry-ga as before. Seems like those files didn't work for me?

Quoting from the update news:

* Twilight Scythes obtained before this version update can be enchanted by storing them with Moogle Storage Slip 03.
* Twilight Scythes' normal attacks will now be considered physical damage regardless of whether they were stored with a Porter Moogle or not.

Seems update is faster than what it was. I had to restart it now, I'm up to 7% in less than 5 minutes.

Geomancer Quest

Client: Sylvie (Adoulin Waterfront,
Western Adoulin)
Summary:
The intricacies of a geomancer lie in
the luopans--compatriots in the
casting of advanced magics. To make
one, you need one petrified log and
a fistful of homeland soil. Now
where could you find them...?

Files like patch.txt are kind of region specific (because they contain data about the configurator utility for the game (Tools/ToolsUS/ToolsEU)and including that on the update archive would cause trouble for some people.

It's already a huge help not needing to download 3k+ files ... 23 files are a lot better than 3000+ ! m(_ _)m

You'd think after 11 years this wouldn't happen every big update xD Guess FFXI is still more popular than we thought.
