Hello folks,

I remember last month seeing multiple people saying that they had their character get stuck during missions after they cleared BCNMs, as they would be presented with an everlasting black screen; even a few people posted this issue on the offices ffxi forums. Did SE ever address and/or fix this? Is it safe to do BCNMs again?

Thank you,
Senaki.

Considering how many people seem to be getting this issue I can't understand why the person that made it removed it.
Counted three that posted here and 5 on official forums. Seems small.

In the may patch notes they fixed something very similar. It may be just taking them a while to go through and verify each instance.

The one player stuck in ragnarok used the plugin to get free. The other is still stuck as far as I can tell.

Because you could use it to skip any and every cutscene in the game. Not just when stuck. (l would assume)

Still a *** move, he left it up for like 30 seconds. like it matters if people abuse it.

If it's an ongoing problem, should've left it up.

Does happen anyone know if this "getting stuck" issue was just for the original missions, or was it high-tier merit point battles as well?

It was a fix for issues when you disconnect causing a black screen.

It didn't fix any issues where windower caused you to get stuck, like the earmuffs quest in kamhir.

There shouldn't be any "getting stuck" on htb.
