| Re: When will SE get to grips with FFXI Update procedures? Actually, I've found that transferring via my private LAN is much, much faster than transferring from the server. When I was installing FFXI onto my new laptop, I was having a lot of problems with new expansions not registering.
However, I found that if I transferred every single file from my desktop to the laptop, all the updates were found. If you set up a local FTP server, with the right FTP client, it will skip files that aren't different (are the same filesize), so you won't have to wait however many hours to transfer every file.
Plus, it keeps the macro sets the same on both computers too, which is never a bad thing.  Kindadarii (Bahamut) 75BRD / 70PUP / 66WHM / 34SMN
