Version Check Error / Launcher/Boot/Update Error

[Syrus_Draco]

I was able to get everything to work by doing the following:
1) Open FFXIV_BOOT.cfg in notepad.
2) Change BootVersionCheckMode to 1
3) Save and close the file.
4) Delete all the previous patch data under /downloads/ffxivpatch
5) Start the game and it should work.

Hopefully this helps!!

I've done this, including deleting the pervious patch files in the ffxivpatch folder, and still nothing. The client will start downloading the first folder and then stop right there with errors

I have never had an issue with this game before today. The updater fails for the launcher. I have straight up disabled any sort of firewall/security software, altered the .cfg file while deleting any existing download data, run everything as the administrator, and tried flushing and changing DNS. Nothing works (for reference I am US based and my ISP is working solid today). This makes me particularly upset since I just came back to the game a few weeks ago and bought Stormblood just over the weekend.
