Screenshots Thread

Sylverant is a homebrew open source server for Phantasy Star Online. Dreamcast users still play PSO online with this server even today! This is the official forum for both the online game server as well as the open source project itself. Feel free to post and get a gathering started online! We can also show you how to get connected!

Well, if that's from Sylverant, I can say that the server never crashed. Temporary network hiccup, would be my guess.

Probably just a network hiccup. I've checked the logs for everything, and nothing seems to have been down at all in the past week.

Nice screens. Too bad that when i try to get a screenshot, it's damaged or something.. Here is the example

Also, K_I_R_E_E_K.. how do you get such a smooth graphics in game? I've set everything on high-end but it's still not so smooth as yours.. And i am not talking about skins.

I also have problems with fraps, but i still manage to get some good screens in window mode
You cannot use the screenshot function when playing pso in window mode, they always come out like that, either play fullscreen or get an external program to take screens (like fraps) :wink:

As for smooth graphics, i have a post on my blog about that. 8-)
http://kireekpso.wordpress.com/2011/07/ ... l-quality/

In general, this is what i use for psov2 (exept alternate pixel centers)
I'm sure other graphic boards such as nvidia must have some kind of control center to adjust these options

You can pretty much see the differences

Thanks, i tried to apply nvidia settings to PSO, but it fails to change anything.

I don't like EBNseries, because i have used it in PSO:BB, so the only thing left is Effect mod, and maybe some hi-res textures.

Be careful when replacing textures. PVR textures have multiple formats, and if you don't use the right ones, you can cause transparency glitches, or worse. Be aware also that PSO wasn't designed to use high-resolution files, so if you increase the resolution of the textures, you may cause the game to crash.

As for forcing AA and AF on the game, you need to add a "profile" for PSO by selecting pso.exe and then selecting the settings you want the video card to force when it detects pso.exe is running. You don't want to just change the default settings, and you can't change the settings while PSO is running.

all releases and tests are done by me before going to the public, the ones avaiable even when used at the same time do not crash pso.
I know oversized area texture packs cause the game to close and an oversized texture leads the game to crash, but such thing won't happen with the stuff i make avaiable.
It would be bad making someting avaiable that doesn't work.
transparency glitches, or worse
Asside from transparent images beeing invisible when looking through another transparent image, never saw "glitches"

I think Ives was just speaking in general, in case someone else wanted to make new texture sets. :wink:

Yeah i know.
Only thing i can recomend is to test the texture replacement after each change, any problems and you will know exactly what caused it.
As for skins avaiable, they are all good to use, i never found one that didn't work.

EDIT: more screens

Nice run

If you are the last person to have posted in the thread, please just edit your post and add the new screenshots there.

Also, if using imageshack, take the image tag it gives for embedding the images in a forum post please! You can leave out the URL part, but keep the stuff between the IMG and /IMG tags.
