no exp no skills
 

my server works but some problem geting exp killing mobs but no exp and no skill ups any one knows what happens?

i dont know how this can be, can you explain a bit more the situation (what zone, what mobs)

as for myself ive played a couple hours 2 characters on two computers, ive never played like that before, but its quite fun. a new problem cropped up today i saw some quadav were appearing on the PC which had wings of goddess installed prior to going on pserver. the models were obviously from the WoG expansion. the mobs were only appearing on that PC while the other PC which did not have the expansion didnt show them. the PC that couldnt see them couldnt target them right away but eventually could target the invisible mobs. im going to uninstall wing of goddess on said computer and will try again.

also the 2 hour ability on monk does not work, nor does his first H2H weapon skill. i wish i could figure out how to fix it up myself. anyway heres hoping this starts up some new discussion.

jus noth gustaberg worms and all mobs on zone as monk lvl 1 killed and 0 exp win xD
i thing have problems with db now logued and no skills actives xD

and speaking about that any one have command list for this server ?

View the readme. It lists all commands.

maybe in the pxi configuration file you accidentally changed the exp rate
it should have there something like this
EXPRATE = 5.0
i set it at 5.0 because thats a good rate for me, you can set it to anything you want, you may have accidentally set it to 0 or else i dont know what else could be the problem sorry.

well i tested it out again this time without wings of goddess on either pc and i was attacked by an invisible untargetable mob, this time neither pc could view the mob, but what i found strange was that this time i saw a mob called a goblin but with the model of a shrapnel (bombomb). the other pc saw it correctly as a goblin.... im going to try installing all the expansions up to goddess and correcting the files and trying again to see what happens. if anyone could shed any light into what's happening i would be very greatful. thanks

for some reason names arent matching up and some models dont show like in sea sharks dont show up only the name and its extremely hard to target it.

yep i noticed that name thing too can be quite strange, i figured out that the names were wrong and not the models, so the worm with a goblin name was in fact just a worm and not to be feared. i reached konsctat highlands today and just explored it a bit, seems to be in order so far. i finally noticed that the mobs don't have any special attacks (i guess thats what it means by all the mobs being set as hume warriors). i think that diminishes the value a bit but still not a deal breaker. now with the first 4 expansion packs installed on both machines i haven't run across a single invisible mob. that increases the playability by a lot. fought leaping lizzy twice only it was only it appeared as a regular mob without the NM name. i knew it was LL since it dropped leaping boots both times. its going to provide an extra level of challenge if we cant see the NM name anymore, that means being prepared to fight the nms at all times when chasing after the placeholders. i want to see if i can help make monsters more like in the real game but not sure where to do that in the files. i can't find any scripting for the monsters. im a noob at programming but it seems intuitive enough i would take a stab if i was given a lead.

Hello guys.
I was playing the game with 3 accounts, got my main banned so decided to quit and use the emulator.
I stiil have 2 accounts activeted.
I am trying to install and make my own server but I get errors configuring MySQL at the last window when you execute it.
It says "Cannot create Windows service for MySQL. Error:0
Anybody can help me ?

i wish i could help but i didnt have that problem and have no clue in this instance. just wondering are you following Flee's instruction data file?

hmm i ran into a little hitch, the elevators in metalworks dont work so how do i go up to finish my missions.

your going to have to use the @pos command to warp to the bridge just type @where to get your pos and then edit the 2nd number til you get to the bridge above you.

thanks, i ended up using posr instead as i couldnt quite work out a position. zoned into d.wadi today, about 7 goblins right at the zone aggroed my two chars and killed us practically instantly yikes!
this aint the same vanadiel thats for sure, but still not a game breaker. i wish i knew how to program in c++ then id probably try fixing things myself. any good tutorials out there?

Hey guys. I am having exactly the same problem as this. :(
Everything else seems to be set up correctly. I am on Vista, and tried running as an Admin, but it didn't fix it.
Any other ideas as to what could cause this? :handsdown:

could possibly be that Final Fantasy XI did not install properly if your play FFXI normaly then idk what the problem could be but if you dont and are just trying out this then go to POL and click check files if Final Fantasy XI doesnt show up on that list its b/c it wasnt install properly this is only a problem ive found to exist on Win Vista/7.

Ah yes, you were correct! :handsdown:
FFXI was in my POL list, but I had neglected to go through the file check/repair
process. One overnight update later, and my server is working! Very cool!

I can only imagine how much work has gone in to this.
Thanks for the help. Looking forward to exploring the world :bandit:...

Hey all! I used to play FFXI since it launched on PC well over 6-7 years ago. I also used to help script on weekends for pXI, however now after a long absence from ffxi I come back to realize that it seems everyone has gave up, mainly because of FFXIV being on the way I am guessing.

Anyways, I am wanting to experience it for one last time and just run my own server locally to play on with a few friends, so I am wondering if someone who has a working set of server files would be able to upload and link them, preferably to something like mediafire since that way it wont be detected... or maybe u have a better idea.

Flee's links are dead so... hopefully someone can lend me a hand here =/ ???

Thanks!

As an aside, d'you guys know if it's possible to use the 3rd party Windower in conjunction with Meteor XI?

yesterday one of the two characters ive been playing with glitched on me, at first i became unable to access his items, then after a while he couldnt even more nor log out... anyone else ran into this problem and found a fix maybe?

Does anyone have the list of zone ids?
I tried looking them up through polutils, but those #'s don't match.

Or is there another way to find those out?

edit: now i keep getting this problem and i have try right click and run as "administrator" and still no luck =/
anyone got any advice to help me figure this out?

Yes, I did follow Flee's instructions.

Is FFXI installed and updated?
I was having this problem too, until I did the file check/repair in POL.

yep i had ffxi install and i did the checkfiles/repair step which took around 4 hours i do not know if people took that long aswell. did i had to checkfile/repair PoL viewer too? because when i do it says "no problem found"

EDIT: nvm i can run game smoothly now but there is some things i need help in, how to enable windowed mode and which one to use? because when i enable windowed mode on FFXIcalculator my ffxi wont start up. also my starting nation was sandy and wanted to ask how can i enable the AH? when i talk to the AH people nothing happens, can anyone help me with these problems please? thanks

use this list [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] get the ID # from there and then convert it from Decimal to Hexadecimal here [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Thanks a lot!

does anyone know which windowed to use for pxi? i can't get any to work, also is anyone having trouble with job abilities not showing? or is that only if i change a lv 1 job straight to 75?

edit : got windowed to work :D anyone knows all the in game commands? i just know the basic ones

I get into the game on buddy's server and then I try to create a character and when I get to the buddy pass thing it gives me the FFXI error 3322 and I dont know what to do. heh heh 3322 dont know what to do. Can anyone help?

copy the "Data" folder from the Playonline dir to the Final Fantasy XI dir that should fix it

nice i found mXI 9.0RC ^^ feels like its running better than 7.1, still testing 9.0 though

Interesting, what's different about it?

no real difference except you can put it in windower mode and use windower plugins

anyone here running a server?

im currently running a server, email me if you want the information [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Does anyone know how I would go about compiling the pxi server, from the SVN source?
It seems there are quite a few new features in there that didn't make it to 0.6 ...

helped me a little.

Zone IDs for use with the @zone command, fwiw:
