FINAL FANTASY XI

[Update Details]
The following issues were addressed.

- The remaining recast time displayed will be incorrect if a command is used for an ability that is still on cooldown.

- The alter ego “Yoran-Oran (UC)” disappears from the list and can no longer be called when “Sort” is used on the magic list.

Agreed. I was just kind of waiting around for someone else to post about it on the windower forum thread here.

Also, Dec. 31, 1969 at 6:00:01 PM seems like such a specific time. I wonder what the meaning is behind it. Oh wait. That's when the second-hand servers that FFXI runs on were originally activated.

Not gonna lie. I'm shocked this actually got hot-fixed a few days after the bug was found. I REALLY expected them not to patch it until the March version update. That's how low my faith in the Dev "team" has sunk (sank?).

Probably its correct number in the wrong format, like when you change an excel date to number.

Whoops. I guess someone else posted about this in the Dev tracker thread about 5 minutes before I made this thread.

It looks like a subtraction from a 0 valued date using standard unix time. Likely, there was a null that entered the calculation at some point or a value got canceled out when presenting the time stamp.

When I relaunched, it gave me a small FFXI (not POL) patch.

Ya, I had a very quick update when I selected "play" in the FFXI launch screen in PoL. I tried logging in both on Windower and Vanilla, both froze at the same place.

So much for crafting during my lunch at work :-P

Probably need to do a file check of POL and FFXI (in that order).

I've frozen three times today. Once when clicking a homepoint. Once when clicking my Mog Garden Moogle. Once when clicking my mog garden furrows. I wonder what they broke. >.<

Anyone else been getting stuck/locked after checking/clicking/trying to interact with something today?

I've been black screened going into mog garden at about a 25% rate, across any and all accounts.

Other than that just standard crashing like always, no freezing/sticking/hanging

Are you using dgvodoo and XIV up at the same time? That used to happen to me with the freezing. It could also be one of those HD dat mods doing it
