Great fun watching it check 40000+ files repeatedly lol.

This is about the 5th time now since I started trying to get this update 4 hours ago.

AH!! kk cool. That left me with 3 files to go..

It's very similar to updating FFXI View if you use it.


- Download the .rar file from the second, correct link.
- Once downloaded extract that .rar file to your desktop and a folder called Final Fantasy XI should appear.
- Go through your program files until you find PlayOnline and open the folder. You should see a Final Fantasy XI folder in there.
- Select the Final Fantasy XI folder you have on your desktop and drop it into the PlayOnline folder and several prompts will appear.
VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure you select 'Copy and Replace' or 'Merge' or whatever appears when it appears. DO NOT skip doing this and pay close attention to the prompts that appear.
- Once this is done open PlayOnline as usual and proceed to the Final Fantasy XI login page.
- Once you select 'Play' it will begin to update. Do not panic when you see PlayOnline checking 55000+ files, it is only checking to see if they are there. In reality you will only download between 1 and 200 or so files, not sure what determines this. Once this is done, you'll be able to login.

omg lol don't look at the mission descriptions up on BGWiki, if you don't want the final boss to be spoiled. If you don't care it's pretty unexpected I'd say!

Don't read the spoiler chat if you don't want the final boss spoiled!

Well done mate. That literally took a few mins compared to being at 3% the other way which I did it like this on 14 so idk why I didn't in the first place this time here.

I had to open the playonline folder and drop it in the square enix folder. Got a few error codes..verify version and network issue but 3rd time it went through.

Thanks again.

What mission description? I'm not seeing what I'm supposed to be doing after entering the new zone.

True sight hippogryph things further in btw. I might run to the warp points in twilight. I couldn't take 3 of them on at once and the pack of them stretched too far to outrun them on BLU/WHM and reraise safely.

I believe the number of files you still need to download is dependent on the number of custom/edited files you had, ie. marked maps.

Does anyone happen to have the original map files they can throw up to replace the marked map files? That may solve the 250+ file download for those of us who have already downloaded Funk's folder.

seriouslty SE +40 acc on gun and not RACC??????

COR/DNC melee setup. Seems quite popular now, with them wielding the OaT sword and then using LS / WF / Salute to close a SC.

If we're talking about the COR Aeonic, it's not even ACC it says Magic Accuracy +40. >.>

Ahh bad formatting, yeah that's weird? Does COR have an issue with Leaden Salute / Wild Fire being resisted on hard stuff?

most people look down on you unless your Rng attking all the time, imsure theyll have some aug to it that will be nice wulda been better to have it also on base stats tho

Nah, there's next to no one on. I reckon there's a problem somewhere.

Hopefully they will extend this bonus xp campaign to make up for people not being able to get on today.
Not that I'm overly impressed with the xp from it so far. It doesn't seem as good as straight up double xp.

I remember the last double exp campaign i worked on one of my sub jobs and that double exp made real light work of it wished i done a few more sub jobs currently working on my BLM sub. I was only doing it to level 17 for warp then i thought that's a ugly level to finish on so i thought i might as well level it to 50 as a sub.

I'm on 7% downloaded with 2,342 files left to do, I'm starting to think it might be quicker to fly out to Japan and get the update in person ¬_¬
