FFXI File Transfer/ Reinstallation

[Tecora]

I know there are probably threads relating to this but after a lot of searches nothing came up (maybe I wasn't searching the right things...) anways, I have FFXI installed on my current PC and want to install it on another PC. I have all the discs except the TOAU one, and couldn't find a reliable torrent/iso file.

So I remembers there was a tutorial somewhere explaining how to copy/paste files from 1 pc to another and do something with the registry, then do file check for a quick relocation.

If anyone would be able to go into detail for this process or link me to some sort of tutorial it would be much appreciated ~

I tried the same thing awhile back and my research yielded a solution:
"for %f in (*.dll) do regsvr32 %f"
It's a brute-force command, scanning every dll file in the current directory for registry commands. But it will definitely catch it all. If I recall, the only entry I had to do manually was the "installed directory" path.

I really wish I knew what you were talking about

There's several posts on windower.net forums, here's a decent one i found http://forums.windower.net/index.php...opic=10392&hl=

Prepare:
1. Start->Run, type "regedit"
2. Find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PlayOnlineUS
3. Right click the folder and select "Export"

Move:
4. Copy all files to new PC
5. copy the registration file you exported

Install:
6. run the registration file to import the registration data
7. Do a search under playonline folder
Start -> Run -> cmd
cd program files\playonline (if you install in this directory)
dir /s *.dll
8. For each .dll file, type regsvr32 xxx.dll
(For example, regsvr32 FFXi.dll)
9. Enjoy the game

What Force-Attuned Krogoth is talking about, is step 7-8. Inside a .bat file, you can alternatively input the code "for %f in (*.dll) do regsvr32 %f" but I find it glitchy sometimes, especially in Vista. If all goes well, after a file check, you should be up and running right away.
