June 9, 2008 UPDATE - Glitches - OP updated 6/18 6:15 AM EDT

[Ashira]

Thread start for new glitch report thread for today's update.

Also thought it'd be a nice spot to include thanks for various features, those little things that never get full discussion but that we <3.

I'll update this OP each time the thread hits another full page, and if things from old thread aren't fixed, feel free to report/list them again.

GLITCHES as of June 10:

• Sneak Attack is working from in front of the mob FIXED[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• Some sort of game processing speed issue, everything running extremely fast - seems to be Athlon 64 x2 processors running into this issue FIXED[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• Numerist Pumps are listed as +4 MP Recovered while Healing in the English version of the game: they are a confirmed +3 only (and are +3 in the Japanese version)[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• possible issues with new auto sort feature causing problems with items disappearing from Treasure Pool without distributing at all[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• merit menus do not list merits properly when moving cursor between Group 1 and 2[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• Campaign mobs are linking to Fortifications[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• Auto-sort not working properly with crafting/fishing results[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• possible triple attack proc rate on Mandau increased(?)[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• NM Ob can cast/land Magic Mortar from well outside regular spell casting range[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• Campaign music plays over the mission cutscene music in La Vaule [S][/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• Targeting some logging points are causing players to disconnect from game (may need to list specific zone points)[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• Issues in trying to enter Bhaflau Remnants[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• Chat log issues - after zoning into Attohwa Chasm, a player could no longer see any spell or ability targeting them in their chat log - did not change any chat filters[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• Too much lag with new NPCs in Campaign areas; NPC leaders unable to load[/*:m:dkuqpap9]

Old issues:

• Hatchling Egg's "raptor noises" play even in rent-a-rooms at the time of 15:00 if you have the egg set in your home mog house. It will even play its noises in past-vanadiel rent-a-rooms.[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• Select items are usable while under the effect of Invisible. Some listed here.[/*:m:dkuqpap9]
• Fishing Contest NPC in Selbina: Chenon - When the time remaining for the fishing contest is less then 1 day, she starts giving out the wrong information on how much time is left.[/*:m:dkuqpap9]

[EdgeMoragan]

I'll try to provide as much information as I can again.

yeah not from update today but i hear those sounds in areas like port jeuno and white gate, out in the city not in my mog house, not bothersome, but still a glitch lol

[Kimiko]

Will also be updating info as it comes in over on my blog site.

[eva00r]

A bit off topic but we should have data mining thread also.

[Tomiko]

A big thank you for adressing the security concerns. I don't know how good hte new system is, but it's a step in the right direction.

[Bungee]

Another old bug that still exists that I believe they said they were going to fix.

Fishing Contest NPC in Selbina:
NPC: Chenon (H-9)
Location: Selbina Fishermen’s Guild

When the time remaining for the fishing contest is less then 1 day, she starts giving out the wrong information on how much time is left.

Not sure if this is the right thread but...POL is now resetting my PC after starting to download files. Never done this before and POL is the only application running.
Done it 4 times now so im pretty sure its not just a random thing.

I got it 1 hour into the update and keep getting it over and over now. I'm on ps3 and it is also happening to my gf on 360.

[LogainDiabolos]

Its happened on my PC and PS2 and PS3 several times. But Ive taken note each time its a different .dat 53 23 106 etc etc... really wished they woulda let us start updating... i dunno about 10min after the servers went down.

[Hemorabe]

Incoming emergency maint.
Sneak Attack is having 0 effect, when standing behind mob with JA active next hit will do normal attack damage. Also Relic triple proc is going insane, I'm procing WAY more than normal...And by WAY I mean like noticably 10x more

[dejet]

the way is see it i got that a lot but keep hitting retry and it starts up again. i got 1hr 30min left and im good to go. all that is (tell me if im wrong people) that there are a tone of people downloading so its kicking you off. its like this all the time just now its has a new name. idk if that fits in the bug/glich area unless someone who knows code well can say it is something other then the server moving so slow because it has a tone of people on it downloading?

[Serjero]

My entire FFXI is acting like its on speed. Everything is going 2-3 times faster. From my movement, all animations, etc... Restarted PC and POL a few times and still no change. O well atleast I can get around the world 3xs faster.

This is the same for me and I'm afraid to go out because I'll be reported for speed hacking.
