Re: PSO PC Windowed: Correct aspect ratio

Hi Treamcaster, I updated the launcher according to your suggestion. I'd like to further improve the launcher, to make it eventually work with any PSO, patched or unpatched. It won't come out as fast as this one which basically started +/- 24 hours ago, but in time, if there's interest I'll surely c...

Re: PSO PC Windowed: Correct aspect ratio

Sounds good. I added screenshot functionality to my program, and based on your information about the launcher, added it as well. Now the program can launch PSO in Online or Offline mode and resize the window, as well as take screenshots, which will be saved on the same folder as the Screenshots from...

Re: PSO PC Windowed: Correct aspect ratio

I'm glad you made this program, I'll be using it for sure, thanks! I've always had window issues with pso.exe, even deathrabbits loader doesn't resize to the selected resolution. Maybe you could integrate a button to load pso.exe from your app? If someone tells me what the loader does, I sure can i...

Re: PSO PC Windowed: Correct aspect ratio

I'm not sure if there's a way to universally compensate for that regardless of the Windows theme you're using. My program does just that. It considers the size of the internal DC rather than the entire window. The calculation is simple, get the Window size, then the Client size. Subtract to find th...

Re: PSO v2 Enhancement Pack

That sounds right. I'm using the auto-connect disc without the EP, for now I think it should be enough for me.

The disc works marvelously, and no more crazy seeking while loading the characters! Thanks for making this disc.

PSO PC Windowed: Correct aspect ratio

Hi everyone! I've been feeling so welcome to the community and you guys gave me so much, I think it's time I give something back. I'm trying to get my friends to play PSO with me (I got one person already, more to come soon) but obviously most of them don't have their DCs anymore, so the only choice...

Re: PSO v1 Dreamcast having trouble to connect

I mean making a character that I backed up using the /save command to show up on "Manage Character Data" page on my Sylverant account. Or is that limited to PC characters?

Re: PSO v2 Enhancement Pack

Alright, that answered my question. :)

I've been playing on Altimira for no specific reason, somehow I got more friendly with the ship's name! :)
I'll observe playing on it if I do decide to play with the EP... but I'll probably continue playing on it regardless. :)

Thanks for the answers.

Re: PSO v2 Enhancement Pack

I such case I rather not use it. Most likely I'll be playing with the GD-Rom then. It's just that having been used to playing for so long on v1, the noisy scratch when loading your character after teleporting on v2 is very annoying.

PSO v2 Enhancement Pack

I was reading about Aleron's versions of PSO v2 for DC on PSO Palace, and it immediately sparked my interest due to the fast loads. Then I came across the enhancement pack, which sounds quite interesting, but I was wondering... since it modified some item stats and the classes, does Sylverant consid...

Re: PSO v1 Dreamcast having trouble to connect

I used /save to save my character... then created a new one and used /restore. It worked well. If that's ok with you guys then I'll go ahead and convert that restored character to v2 and start playing. I lost all my progress so I'll have to grind over normal, hard, etc all over again, but there is s...

Sylverant Server Commands

Could you create a list of server commands and their usage?

Perhaps a sticky topic?

Re: PSO v1 Dreamcast having trouble to connect

PSO v2 arrived! I used it configure the BBA. Was a bit cryptic having to go to "website" to configure the BBA, and also the fact that the "Website" only does that... unlike PSO v1. :P In any case, I went there and for my surprise the Sylverant DNS was already there. Well... I sor...

Re: PSO v1 Dreamcast having trouble to connect

The algorithm of the serial/access must be the same, however they probably use a different key "encrypt" them for each region and each game for those regions "decrypt" using those keys. Well if I do find out where it's stored, it would be easier to disassemble the game and see wh...

Re: PSO v1 Dreamcast having trouble to connect

Guess I'll just have to wait for that PSOv2 to arrive then. One day I may poke around the DC memory and find exactly what is the configuration that PSO reads and write a "PSO BBA Configurator" app, as I get more familiar with the Dreamcast internals. I've made a RPG for Dreamcast which wil...

Re: PSO v1 Dreamcast having trouble to connect

Well time to make some more experments, so I added your DNS and pinged one of those names from my computer, and it worked gracefully (points back to the same IP as the DNS). So I'm certain that I can reach your DNS from all spots within my network. And again I entered PlanetWeb 2.0. Saved my ISP set...

Re: PSO v1 Dreamcast having trouble to connect

Hi Lawrence, thank you for coming here to my aid.

I'm running PSO v1 USA.

As I explained on my post above, I actually popped in PlanetWeb 2.0 and inspected that my ISP settings are there and set. I even added your DNS to the ISP settings and saved it again, so it has a fresh save of those settings.

PSO v1 Dreamcast having trouble to connect

Hi everyone. I finally got my BBA and first thing I did was to pop in my PSO and the VMU with my beloved character. I used to play PSO online back in 2000, 2001... and there are so many good memories that I can't even count them. Knowing that Sylverant allows me to experience that again is just inde...
