    You have to change the content of the game.ver file with a text editor. The content should be 2011.07.20.0000

    Right click the file, properties and uncheck the write protection. That write protection is probably also the cause for the updater failing to update it.

    I finally got into the game and .... the floor and walls are missing, so something is still wrong. ; ; guess i have to figure out this problem now. I wish they could get this stuff right from the start, so we dont have to go in and try and fix their mess.

    Some other files in the ffxiv folder were probably also write-protected. Had a similar issue and reinstalling the game worked for me.
