As the title of this topic says, little mod will give your FFXI the feeling as if it were an older based Final Fantasy.
With the standard flat text and the finger pointer, with the default blue style background it makes you feel as though you where playing a diffrent FF from the past
This is an easy to do mod as well, all you have to do is replace two data files in your FFXI directory.
WARNING!!!
Be sure to back up the files you will be replacing! This is a major concern incase something in the future happens with the game that requires you to have these original files. Remember! You have been warned!
To backup the needed files, open your PlayOnline folder. You can find this folder at:
C:\Program Files\PlayOnline\
(C: may be diffrent, as well as the actuall installation path. But if you changed it to install somewhere else, Im pretty sure you know where to find it.)
Then into the SquareEnix folder, then into the FFXI folder. (Final Fantasy XI)
Our current path is now:
C:\Program Files\PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI
Our first Dat file is found in the:
ROM/0/ folder and is the dat file 20.dat.
Make a new folder on the desktop, and copy / paste this file into the new folder.
Our second Dat file is found in the:
ROM/119/ folder and its the dat file 51.dat.
So our two files are located in these complete paths:
C:\Program Files\PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI\ROM\0 -- File (20.dat)
C:\Program Files\PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI\ROM\119 -- File (51.dat)
Please make sure that when changing these files that you are LOGGED OFF THE GAME and have Playonline closed. This will ensure that you will not encounter errors, problems, and anything else.
Remeber again, I take no responsibilty in what you do to yourself, your computer, or ANYTHING. You use this site, its programs, and its material at your own risk!
But I will ensure you that it does work, and I will post a screen shot of it to prove it
