ok so im a tard, i went to best buy and in my excitement bought the last copy left of the collection of ff11 and its expansion packs, only to get home and realize its DVD format and my machine doesnt have a dvd rom! is there a way to download the game since i now have a cd key and such? maybe just the exe file and have the game patch the remaining files?

I used my sister's Mac to share the content of the DVD so I could install my copy of ToAU on my ancient PC... >_>;Bamboo shadows sweep the stars,
yet not a mote of dust is stirred;
Moonlight pierces the depths of the pond,
leaving no trace in the water.

Uhh, just get a DVD-RW, or a DVD-ROm, you can get really cheap DVD ROMS for about 10-20$, and decently RW's for about 30-40. Seriously, most games are being released on DVD-ROM now a days because it's cheaper to put the content on 1 dvd, then 5 CD's.-Baka Inu!

Go download a torrent of the DVD and just run it from your PC using a program that emulates DVD roms.Read my blog.ffxibrp.livejournal.comCurrently: Entry #32, August 31/07.

Download code is for the buddy pass trial, not the full game. Just buy a DVD drive.Originally posted by trickynicky42 View PostComment

DVD-ROM is your best bet. Bestbuys will also install it for you. So get on it! :<If beauty is in the eye of the Beholder.....than what is truth?

Yep, the download code is for a shitty connection to download an incomplete version of the game.

Re: bought the DvD collection, no dvd rom!
I would assume I could do the same thing I did for Vanguard, you only need to download the client to patch to the live game (I downloaded the Vanguard beta from fileplanet which patched to the live version) since I have a legit copy of the game with cd codes.
ETA: there is a torrent for the 2007 collection, I found one.Last edited by trickynicky42; 05-30-2007, 12:24 PM.Comment
