Seekers of Adoulin + Client Updates

Post by PrBlahBlahtson » Wed Mar 27, 2013 2:10 pm

Just posting this for people that weren't around last time there was a major client update.

http://www.bluegartr.com/threads/115386 ... -3-27-2013

So, just judging by those posts, it sounds like SE changed some of the packet structure again.

Also, the internal DATs had space for 256 zones, and there were 7 unused zone ids still. SE added 12 new zones. This means any packet dealing with a zoneid may have been changed to add at least a new bit.

What this means for you:
If you update your client right now, you may not be able to play until we can get them compatible again. That may take a few weeks. Please be patient while we get that sorted out, whether you updated or not.

Once the core has been updated to use the new packets though, your old client probably won't work, and you will need to update to play again. Keep an eye on the changelog (posted below) and you'll probably see when we switch over.

you have to reapply the fix like when you update your client the first time you install

under "Installing FFXI", fourth-ish paragraph, a link to "FFXI Patch", you need to install that again

when i installed SoA i think it crashed a few times, but that was because everyone else was updating at the time lol, you shouldn't have issues if you apply the patch to enable Final Fantasy XI in the check files menu
