Well I'm off for the night.
See you tomorrow, when we'll hopefully know more about the beta.
REMEMBER get the client before 19:00 Pdt because they're removing it after that.
Toodles.

Linking the account to XI allows you to get Hermes Sandles in XIV and also a cheaper XI subscription.

Cheaper only until January 2011. Also, your name in XIV can be your old XI name+server(i.e. Rikiyame Ifrit).

Linking the account to XI allows you to get Hermes Sandles in XIV and also a cheaper XI subscription. So the beta is where we can say it starts for us (as in starting our characters and that) so when the disks and game itself is released we keep what we got during this beta that just started? (or it realy starts (with the boots) when the release happens? Also my character got misspelled in FF11 so in 14 im gonna get the spelling right.

Zekko said: Leviathan.Xya said: Maybe this is slightly off topic and I apologize if so, but I'm having issues getting the thing to even start up. I downloaded the client from the beta site (the one from the email) and installed it. Took no time at all so I was kind of worried, but figured the big stuff was all in the update, this was just the basic client. Anyway, I got it all installed and tweaked the settings a bit (setting up my controller and adjusting the window size). When I went to start the client up it immediately crashes. I went into my nvidia panel and lowered the settings some, still crashes. Updated the drivers and restarted, crashes. Shut down completely for a few hours then tried again, crashes. In all honestly my graphics card is well below the minimum requirements on the site, but would that cause the client to crash completely right when it starts up? Wall-o'-text, sorry. Im not sure ._. Lots of people cant get it to work when they are using something that is way below the minimum So I won't even be opening the client until I shell out $200+ for a graphics upgrade, and even then it might not be enough considering my processor (which is above the GHz requirement, but dual-core) =/ Ah well... I didn't need to put up $80 for the special edition right now anyway. I'll just wait for PS3. Ok Krizz im getn it now. Beta is just to get the feel for it and the Boots and that will be givin when it is released (on the 22nd.) I do have nother question if i may guys. I play FF11 on my PS2 and until the PS3 is released im gonna end up on PC for FF14 is it possible to log in and play both or is there gonna be a one at a time log in rule? Thanks for putting up with me gang i need good players like you to help get the latest news.
Also now that i think of it, if we link the 3 memberships wouldn't it be better we get the discount for the duration of the merged memberships instead of ending on January?

Oh has anyone tried to use a PS3 controller using the cable to the USB port as a PC controller?
idk bout ps3 contorller but xbox one work with the PC and ffxiv :) so probably will work.
Aframann said: Oh has anyone tried to use a PS3 controller using the cable to the USB port as a PC controller? If you have windows 7 its a long, complicated, and overly convoluted process to get it to work. But yes you can. Oh!! Can you let us know how please if you got the time and patience?
When I began downloading the client, it kicked me off of FFXI. Now I'm downloading the version update, will it stop downloading if I log back into FFXI?
Aframann said: Oh has anyone tried to use a PS3 controller using the cable to the USB port as a PC controller? I tried before, it will charge but wont control anything. Hopefully xya can give us some info Aframann said: Oh!! Can you let us know how please if you got the time and patience? It's a lot less complicated to get it working than it used to be. I think you can just go to http://www.motioninjoy.com/, download the program, and just install the drivers and everything through that. When you plug in your PS3 controller (with the drivers installed) it will be in "analog mode" by default. You need to then open the motioninjoy tool and choose one of the digital controller modes. I think "digital 3" has the most features. woot, done downloading :D
Now it's "installing" D: 45% DL now. :3 ***needs to pick up when I let it run after I go to sleep.

Hopefully xya can give us some info i use mine to play ffxi, you just have to download and run this program, and then it works i'm guessing its the same thing for ffxiv? ?.? I can't see why PS3 wouldn't work, just gotta configure it right with motionjoy.
With that in mind, I need to reinstall motionjoy and get it setup to work on my PC :/ bleh, do that ***tomorrow, thing imma go to bed lol, tired as hell. Asura.Kowen said: Aframann said: Oh!!

Using my boyfriend's old PC controller now for mindlessly running around and its too big for my little hands :< Like a giant *** xbox controller ; ; Edit: From what I see with this, you still have to manually disable signed driver enforcement every time you boot up or turn on Test Mode and use the overrider. Though the program does skip over a lot of the doody from previous guides I read. I still don't understand what to do with all 7 parts when that guide says you only need 4 files form it :/
