Unless you mean connecting via Dreamcast
Then well they're all shit as v2 has like 5 global players
Sylverant is prolly your best bet for v2 or PC

It has so much custom shit, what the fuck

One Dreamcast just doesn't have the juice for local multiplayer. Play the GC version on a modded Wii for that. Play Blue Burst for good online experience. Playing on DC servers is basically for people who want to cheat.

Or prefer the DC version.


If anyone could ever share the files needed to host a server I would gladly put up a DC server and keep it maintained indeffenitely. I don't imagine it's a huge bandwidth hog these days.

>>3459643
And I'll be happy to log onto it and take it down in flames with game shark abuse. The DC version is simply not secure. Why would you possibly prefer it to BB other than nostalgia?

98% sure there is a /command to disable all that

>>3459643
Its discouraged to make new branches of servers that further fragment the already less than double digit v2 community
What's needed is centralisation as its a multi player online game
There is already several v2 servers
By your """"good faith""" gesture of offering to host and maintain ANOTHER unnecessary server just hurts and further fragments the tiny community

Also most of PSO server code is open source or based off available server code with documentation

I think you have no idea about the community and just wanted to come and act like some kind of saviour without even bothering to Google the topic for karma credits or some shit.

I was only discussing the DC version because my friend and I want to just play locally offline and we can't.

So the next best thing is BB online, but, the community is fractured and now servers exist that add a bunch of custom shit that no one ever asked for.

Last I knew there were 2 decent servers and 1 of them was on it's way down.

schthack is the most populated private server and has a great website to manage your characters throughout all versions of the game.

Also i'm suprised we dont have PSO generals here

>>3459778
schthack is more true to the game

>>3459778
Like I said get a fucking $20 wii, softmod it and play local offline multiplayer in 480o

>>3459872
I know there was some hullabaloo drama about schthack, but I missed/ignored it. they where the first, and they're still really easy to get set up with.

Also the only version with episode 3 support I think...

>>3459961
You can play PSO Ep 3: Card Revolution on the real console through Schtack? woo

>>3460015
yup it supports all versions

>>3459778
You can run a local PSOBB server and play on a LAN, if you're willing to go to the effort (not hard, but you do have to hex edit a file, just don't go full retard and it should be fine).
Not a whole lot of point if you have non-shit internet though. All those optional features on Ephinea are ignorable.

What is a decent emulator for dreamcast, I was wanting to give this a go.

>>3460816
Just get the Blue Burst version
