    First off, I wasn't talking to you was I? This thread was about Ambiant's issue. Also I'm not an employee of SE, I'm just a regular person that plays the game just like everyone else so I have no inside track to any information.

    Snow?? The offices are located in El Segundo, CA (right by LAX I guess). I have a g/f who works there and she assures me that there is no snow prohibiting them from coming to work. (And for the rest of you, no she's not a GM though she'd very much like to be! lol She works in the public relations section.)

      Oh! So she's [GM]Dave lmao j/k.

      Anyways, I don't think Neo's problem sounds like a installation problem now, I think that sounds more like a problem on SE's end with their registration server.

          Re: PlayOnline on Vista

          DUN DUN DUN.

          I managed to get FFXI working on a Vista run PC that doesn't even have a compatible graphics card. I see blobs of polygons pretty frequently and my client crashes whenever someone around me uses ice spikes, but the directions on the pol site actually do work.

            Either SE with the registration server or my provider...

            I'm just so sick of hearing "install again" - sometimes this isn't the right way to solve problems...
            But I'll give it a last try and install the game once again, once again the Vista patch, once again POL and once again FFXI. In this order (as described at playonline.com)...

            Although: thank you for your try to help...
            I just thought I would get the chance to talk to someone of SE who has the background information...

              This is probly silly, but have you run the Pol as administrator? And ffxi itself as well? I gave access to both just in case for my vista when pol had issues. Also you might try disabling the fire wall just to see if it can work. I know on one pc a while ago i had to turn off windows firewall or zone alarm to get the game to work.

                THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS

                Not only Ice spikes, Ice elementals do it, Enblizzard, all crash my game. I have to .dat swap all of that to get it to stop, and I haven't isolated all of the little animations that fuck me over, but I'm glad someone else has confirmed that this is really the case and not some stupid weird coincidence.

                Hate this laptop sometimes. :(

                        How about on your router/modem? Have you done any port forwarding? I am not sure what ports FFXI uses, but you might be able to find the information on their website.

                        "... and so I close, realizing that perhaps the ending has not yet been written."

                          There's no problem with my modem. I called my provider and asked for the ports but they are all opened.
                          The support team of POL has checked my connection with my IP and they also said that there's no problem. POL has forwarded my problem to Japan on Thuesday. Now I'm waiting.
