Help: failure to download

[Memelord]

whenever i try to download the game after i just bought it, the game said error fail to download patch. i tried resetting my internet restarting my pc and redownloading the game again but nothing has worked. does anyone have any advice?

Best option is probably to just get the non-official XIVLauncher. The official one is absolute ass, and updates fail constantly when using it.

I dont know if your case is similar to mine, but I have something that might help:


Go to "Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn"

Open "FFXIV_BOOT" with notepad

Change "BootVersionCheckMode 0" to "BootVersionCheckMode 1"


Save and try to update again.
This is the only thing that solved my problem with these patch errors. Good luck!
