FFXIV Random Speculation/Question thread V: No one told me beta would have problems in it

Yeah it makes no sense to bother with the client vs a torrent program.

Fansite kit just provides you with the official pictures if you want to make a fansite.

Yeah, damn it. So clunky having to manage the downloads yourself.

Side note: Twitter says beta info updated at beta site 5 mins ago. Any info?

**shidobu** · 2010-08-09 07:53

umm im on the site and theres nothing other than stuff about the manual. on LS & text commands

ninja edit.
Question when trying to download the patches with utorrent. Is there anything special i need to do? when i tried to download with utorrent last time it just sat @ 0% for 10 minutes.

Most of the fansite kit is actually available if you have kept track of the images released in various places. Really SE was just nice and gave everyone a nice little package to work with.

DO NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT THE DOWNLOAD SPEED ON TORRENT OR OFFICIAL DOWNLOADER, USE THE SEARCH THIS HAS BEEN ANSWERED ALREADY.

Infractions will be handed out if people don't stop

Are we allowed to go the other way, and ridicule people with screens of the client working just fine?

The 128 limit in the Linkshell is good, I'm interested in exactly how this will work too:

Altering the linkshell’s crest

I wonder if SE will let us upload custom crests similar to Aion, and what the crest will be able to be displayed on?

Yeah PHEW, only 36 hours to spare before the servers come up! Cut it kinda close, almost had to turn off Netflix and stop throttling myself.

Don't hate me cause I like efficiency.

lol

There's also many new graphic options in the configuration utlity. Like more multisampling options 8>16. Buffersize also got some more additions in regards to resolution. They also added some option to disable effects during cutscene and options for texture quality/filtering. There's also a toggle to disable sound when application is being run in the background. That's all I can see right now.

**Gokulo** · 2010-08-09 08:42

Soo, after updating is it just me, or the mouse does work faster even during the checking ver. screen.

It's just you. The window is still locked at 30 fps on the version check screen.

That has nothing to do with how mouse works though?

**Destinye** · 2010-08-09 08:47

Config seems to have a few new option/a little prettier. Also there's no default gamepad settings anymore.

May just be me though. A new option I see unless its just me is "Disable Cutscene Effects" and more Multisampling and Buffer size options.

**Gokulo** · 2010-08-09 08:49

Yes, Multisampling, more buffers, disable cs effects, texture quality and filtering and so on, like Balphas already said.

Oh you mean the movement? that hasn't changed either.
