SE sort out your Updater ><

[Cairdeas]

Actually Viion has proved that each update in 1.17, 1.17a, 1.17b, 1.17c all contained exactly the same data + a little bit extra in this thread here:

Unless you have something to prove otherwise that we aren't re-downloading the same data over and over again then I will have to go with Viion on this one.

If File X for the Market Ward System is sized 75MB exactly.
SE Changes the code around but after compression and encryption the core file is still 75MB
You still are going to have to download it again.

Thats how it worked in FFXI as well.

Only 1.17, 1.17a, 1.17b and 1.17c all made different changes to other parts of the game so this doesn't really support your theory and it's not just the 1.17 patches, 1.16 and 1.15 were exactly the same too.

Here's the easiest way to figure it out on your own!

Open up your FFXIV folder. If you're in XP, open the Search pane, otherwise, click into the search bar. Search for all files modified on 6/15/2011. In the results, select everything that's not a folder, then right-click and hit Properties.
