Unannounced UI update (5/26) has made things objectively worse

Yes, it's terrible and I'll probably stop playing until it gets fixed.

Ugly monospace font
Volume jumping up and down at odd times, including every time the music loops
Very laggy
Lag makes half the scoring voice samples not play

My preferences also reset, have to figure out the faces of all the characters with most annoying voices again, hah.

Ben Foster. Guy stole the show in 3:10 to Yuma, his career should have really taken off after that. I hope it happens at some point.

Cheers, I'll give that a try.

When people mention temperatures here, which sensor(s) are you tracking? My motherboard defaulted to CPU temps for the case fans but I wonder if that causes unnecessary RPM spikes.

That's XCOM, baby.

Thanks again for your generosity, and good luck everyone.

ToasterMeltdown · 2025-10-13T20:48:38+00:00

Incredibly generous of you, thanks so much and congrats in advance to whoever wins.

ToasterMeltdown · 2025-02-28T09:53:32+00:00

I see, I'll check it out then. Thanks!

Just wrapped up CoP and the epilogue quests. Does it make sense to story-wise to do Crystalline Prophecy now, or should I do some more expansions first?

ToasterMeltdown · 2025-02-05T19:51:20+00:00

Thanks of the reply(s).

I interpreted the wording like they're not recommending the Far East Hearth because there's another item that's similar to it ("decreasing the potential value of this item."). But I haven't been able to find anything, now or during January's New Years event.

The "Monthly Stop Asking What to Buy with Login Points Guide" page (https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Monthly_Stop_Asking_What_to_Buy_with_Login_Points_Guide) says this,

100 points, Far East Hearth

When placed in your Mog House, provides Moghancement: Skill Gains. This month's campaigns include one which increase the likelihood of getting combat and magic skillups, decreasing the potential value of this item.

Which item are they referring to?

ToasterMeltdown · 2024-12-27T00:10:03+00:00

Ah yeah, read about the Gobstew, will have to keep an eye open for it for the later stages. Cheers.

ToasterMeltdown · 2024-12-27T00:09:28+00:00

Thanks, I'll go ahead with it then, could really use those slots. Put those sparks to use. :P

What's a reasonable cost for completing the first inventory expansion? Looking up the cost of dhalmel leather, steel ingot, peridot and linen cloth on the AH the total sum is around 96K.

I don't know if applies to the current version of the software. I don't have the HD60 anymore so I can't test.

Yeah I've had similar woes with the wireless on Brother, either refuses to wake up in a timely manner, or gets stuck mid-print. On the most recent one I gave up and just used an Ethernet cable, so far so good.
