    I think that´s the biggest difference in PS2 to PC/Xbox update file size I ever seen.

    I can't remember, but is that a pretty huge file size for an update? It almost seems like it to me. :s

    Maybe they're ninjaing in Tavnazia [S]!

    ...then we find out it's just a re-hash of the Safehold.

    That does look a might big considering what they have promised so far. Also, ps2 limitations.

    Oh, hadn't noticed. Where's the fort located in xarc and beauc? And are there any other odd structures or things that people have noticed in the xarc/beauc_s files that differ from present times?

    I navigated this zone some months ago using pXI server (so using XI's game client as oposed to that jp viewer); about the fort, i'm not sure i saw one, but that could simply be because I got bored to death in the area. There are some structures that differ from the original zone but with the same demon style architecture. They are basicly fangs of dark-crystal-stone that come out of the ground that, if I remember correctly, circle a center torch.

    To be honest, there was nothing worth mentioning that I could see. Maybe someone that can bother to check the zone can add something more. I assume this area will get much more interesting when NPCs and mobs are added in as those, obviously, were not being show through pXI.

    90 MB looks "normal" to me.

    Biggest so far was 130MB I think. Might have been ZNM update.

    its all them damn moogle motions being added to the dats.

    Xarc[S] and Beaud[S] are in the dats already. I would hope that they add a way to get to Tavnazia[S] would love to beable to go there and maybe even a way to enter Tavnazia in the present(never going to happen)

    we'll find out during the dat mining.

    *edit*

    also, 6 and a half hours for this size of an upload? ;\ I know total its below 300meg and it takes me like an hour and a half to upload something that size.
