On the 7th of this month I had downloaded and installed (backed up my .exe) the hardware mouse fix. Today I log in and the gameup dates itself and when I install the hardware mouse patch again the game crashes when trying to boot, replaced it with my backed up .exe and it works. Anyone know if there is a newer version of the hardware mouse patch fix?

you need to wait for the patch people to make a new patch for the new update.
Just have to wait like the rest of us, I'm sure Cliff is busy. I can't even log in after reverting back to the original exe.
That's the funny and somewhat potentially disheartening part: This game is only playable for me depending on 'Cliff' to make a patch.
I agree. Of course, someone will blast us for saying this and tell us to just use a controller.
I can't stand controller personally, but keyboard-only does just fine. It's definitively a console port, no matter how I look at it (which is why it's a lot more intuitive with a Keyboard-only since you basically just play as if you were using a controller but instead it's a keyboard.).
Better support for mouse would be great though since I often have to handle various task outside of FFXIV while I play. Though I have found a noticeable improvement with the Mouse since the patch on Sept.7 I believe.
You can just become tri-dextrous like me and use all three methods to control it =/
Drop the next-gen marketing and people will argue if the game itself has merit.
It took me several tries but I got the game to boot and the patch is working. I downloaded whichever version was available here (http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/13698/ffxiv-mouse-lag-fix/) this morning.
I think the reason the game wasn't getting to the title screen was because of the patch. I didn't do anything different, it just started working; much to my relief. I thought I had gone and screwed up my files. My only guess is that you need to be online for the game to even launch. Though, there is always the possibility I accidentally fixed whatever was broken without knowing. I do that sometimes. Don't ask me to tell you what I did.
Oh, one possibility is, I ran the mouse unpatcher on the old .exe file, ran the game patcher again, then re-installed the mouse patch. I can't be 100% certain, however.
It looks like the lobby server is still down however. It should be up, according to SE, at around 9PM PST.
cant blame ff 14 on console port, its not out on console, its out on pc and getting ported to console =p tards
I can only assume you have not played it then, judging by your remarks. I can't imagine a single reason why you should even be replying to this thread other than the obvious...
They may be releasing the PC version first, but it was developed as a console game as well. There's a reason so many people are ditching the keyboard and mouse to play it with an Xbox 360 controller. Anyway, both versions are being developed together, which means neither is technically a port of the other.
I agree though, it PLAYS like a console port.
