Game is crashing on launch - Am I using the wrong version?
Posted: Sat Feb 14, 2015 12:31 pm
I just installed Darkstar last night from Github, so it should be current, and I used the Check Files trick to update FFXI. I last successfully connected to the official servers sometime in November. Pol and Ashita should be current. I'm launching Ashita as an Administrator, I'm running Windows 7, and using --server 127.0.0.1 --hairpin. I get a white screen and "pol.exe has stopped working".
Before updating my FFXI client, I was able to get far enough into the game to see part of the intro screen, and get a message that said my client was out of date. I'm wondering now if I updated to a version beyond what Darkstar supports, and if that's the case, how do I downgrade to the right version? I followed the steps on the wiki to update my client, but maybe the wiki is out of date, too.
