  1. I apologize, I worded it horribly. At first I wrote "Launcher refuses to launch" but that sounded horribly so I quickly changed it to "open" (open the game) and mixed launcher/game. I am using vJoy in order to simulate the xbox 360 start button and get access to the alternate action palette. If you know a better way to simulate it on a keyboard or mouse, I'd appreciate it. Rewrote the first post to clarify the issue. The launcher starts, but if it's commanded to "Start Game", it just opens a black screen and the error message. Btw, could you please tell me why does the game crashes (w7) if the "User Account Control" window opens as it is running? Edit: It also happens if I Ctrl+Alt+Delete.
  2. Issue: Launcher refuses to >start the game< if vJoy is active. Description: When I click "Start Game" on the launcher, it opens a black screen and a popup with the following error message: The launcher can "start the game" if Vjoy is disabled. The launcher can also "start the game" if the file 'dinput8.dll' isn't on the program's folder. I found two clunky workaround solutions to this problem: Either disable Vjoy before "starting the game", then re-enable it once it's running. (Warning: while using win7, if a "User Account Control" window pops up while the game is running, the game will stop working for some reason). Or remove the file 'dinput8.dll' from the game folder in order to be able to start the game, then return it later. (But I'm not sure if this can cause other issues).
  3. The cons: weaker stats and minimal CC The pros: more dynamic experience, bigger challenge(!). HUmar and HUnewearl offer a more dynamic experience as they have to juggle FOrce and damage-dealing roles, along with having a bigger variety of weapons like Lindcray, demons, spirit (if you can actually hit with them). That glaring flaw of having no CC is part of the identity of HUmar and HUnewearl. But it's also part of their appeal: the challenge of being much less forgiving to play by having to handle packs without CC. You also have to deal with having worse stats than their android counterparts, but ohhh well you chose this classes completely aware of the challenge it implied.
  4. Disclaimer: I am not very knowledgeable nor experienced on this game, this post was done with help of the thread they linked below. The answer to whether it's worth to level a HUnewearl depends on what you want from them. This is a game, it is meant for your enjoyment. If you want a different experience and play around with melee demons, melee spirits or melee magicks, go ahead and raise a HUnewearl. If you only have fun with the fastest times at doing quests, then just keep playing HUcaseal and use the Elly skin If you call HUmar dumb, I'd call HUnewearl dumber. HUnewearl can use Lindcray and female gear, offers better team support in a party without forces and for solo she has Jellen and Zalure level 20 and slightly faster cast times and damage from slightly higher level techs, but she is worse in every other aspect. I am curious to see the top-end damage-focused HUnewearl gear, but it will probably end up with stuff that HUcast or HUcaseal can use as well.
  5. How do I get to see the entire room drops with detailed attributes and the detailed HP and name of every enemy in the room like this?
  6. Basic movement: I do think the commands are ok once you get used to them: left hand on wasd to move [and pinky on control], right hand on arrows to center camera and attack. More Combat stuff: You can reach numbers 1234567890 for some skills/items; and ctrl+end for the quick access menu (for quickly changing weapons, spam techniques you put at the top or bottom of the list, and use items you use too rarely to hotkey in numbers); F2 to check equipment quickly without bothering with home. Other Handy keys for other stuff: Use space to initiate chat. Escape is handy to quickly closing any menu and return to the beloved game (unless you get trapped in F11 which you can only escape by pressing FF11 again). Home (or F12 if you prefer) allows you to open the main in-game menu and check your stats, items, chat, etc. Use tab to arrange the technique order in the quick access menu. Shift (+Fkeys) is helpful for setting chat shortcuts on the Fkeys like pre-making greetings or using the commands (Menu>Chat>Shortcut, hit space to type). Extremely helpful commands include /map, /bank, /lobby, /hh, /palette 0-9, but you can put any command (or relatively short text). Not as useful commands but good to know: F3 can be handy to check techniques or use them, but quick access menu is preferred because you can arrange their order; F4 for quick mag feeding; End button to open the "quick chat window" (and tab to change to the cute symbol chat).
  7. Are MAGs with invulnerability trigger amazing? invincibility 30ish seconds [...] Is MAG invincibility absolute invulnerability? ------ Dreamcast mag has 70% reverser trigger ratio :0 Very cool, isn't it? ------ MAG list on PSO ultima and their triggers: https://www.phantasystaronline.net/forum/index.php?/wiki/items&type=3
  8. What are the types of damage in the game? And for completition's sake, the damage that pierces MAG invulnerability window ("self-drain"?). "Sacrificial damage" from self-damage gear or HP removal like lavis wave / hp wave / berserk / demon / bulclaw 1hp bite / del lily scream / drain wep (soul eater / 3 seals / gael gil / etc.)
  9. How to get power/mind materials? https://www.phantasystaronline.net/forum/index.php?/droptable/drop-tables/ - ---------------------------------------------------------- When it comes to min/maxing, is chugging all HP materials possible a wise decision? So 1550-1600 is generally speaking a sweet spot? You can backtrack your material usage. https://www.phantasystaronline.net/forum/index.php?/tool-box/commands/
  10. Helpful for any governor quests: *** This YouTube chanel has all the governor quests, it can be extremely helpful and comfortable: https://www.youtube.com/user/SilverAnaya/videos (you have to scroll quite a lot because their pso videos are from 2013) And pso-world has detailed maps and the posible variations: http://www.pso-world.com/sections.php Governor quests seem to always use the same pattern and variation. Episode 1 Government Quests: 1-1:Planet Ragol 1-2:Torrential Woods 1-3:Subterranean Den 2-1:Infernal Cavern 2-2:Deep Within 2-3:The Mutation 2-4:Waterway Shadow 3-1:The Facility 3-2:Machines Attack 3-3:Central Control 4-1:The Lost Ruins 4-2:Buried Relics 4-3:Hero & Daughter 4-4:The Tomb Stirs 4-5:Dark Inheritance My experiences on some particular episode 1 governor quests: ...

  11. got one already sorry :$
  12. Are excalibur, S-Red's Blade, Macho Blade farmable? If that's the case, where? (and maybe when I guess)
  13. I logged into a redria character, joined with a whitill, then logged off with redria. So when the leader leaves, the next player to become leader is the one that decides the new location ID immediately?
  14. Where can I get addslots? I tried redria on normal VR Temple red flowers and blue monkeys but they don't drop them >.> (they drop resis Flame) http://www.pso-world.com/items.php?artid=618&op=viewarticle are drop tables different here on ultima? I can't find addslots drop rates.
  15. Where do I find these missions? 5-1:Test/VR Temple 1 5-2:Test/VR Temple 2 5-3:Test/VR Temple 3 5-4:Test/VR Temple 4 5-5:Test/VR Temple 5 6-1:Test/Spaceship 1 6-2:Test/Spaceship 2 6-3:Test/Spaceship 3 6-4:Test/Spaceship 4 6-5:Test/Spaceship 5 7-1:From the Past 7-2:Seeking Clues 7-3:Silent Beach 7-4:Central Control 7-5:Isle of Mutants 8-1:Below the Waves 8-2:Desire's End 8-3:Purple Lamplight There seems to be no governor in episode 2.
  16. Instructions unclear, got stuck in a booma pack. Thank you, this is the kind of answer that I was expecting.
  17. I kinda really wanted to have the option to support too, so I'm looking towards FOmarl. But I'll give HUcast a go because I'm curious about traps and I want a taste of that power.
  18. Playing a melee already feels more challenging or handicapping yourself. Now, playing a melee that doesn't even get the bonuses others melee get... it feels like playing crippled. Even using shifta + zalure and hunter weapons I feel like I'm struggling, not to mention that many times it feels more efficient to just pick off enemies one by one with a pistol, barring the fact that it's way comfier. Now, I know that generalists should suck by design when it comes to min-maxing unless the game offers you a way to specialize to not overshadow everything or that they should pay in some way, but I think RAmarl would have given me a much smoother gameplay experience for the "generalist class", or even a FOmarl (which also seem to have great melee potential, despite having access to max level in all techs). Of course, I have very basic gear, but I just can't see the place of a HUnewearl. They are very far from the base power of other HUnters. Her utility in a team gets cut to like 20% or less when there is another FOrce on a team, so then she plays like a crippled HUnter that may be able to sneak some clutch tech here and there. Yet she is considered better than a HUmarl despite her base stat differences. This is not a great feat considering casts get MUCH more DAMAGE and TRAPS, but still HUmar has massive attack damage and is considered worse than HUnewearl. What is this mighty equipment that allows her to overcome her pathetic stat deficits and be more useful compared to the HUmar? Should I reroll and raise another character and never come back to her again until I am rich to get uber gear? :'( Please tell me that I'm bad and that HUneweal rocks (preferably with an explanation on how to stop being bad).
  19. This is an annoying quest, so hopefully this will make it less annoying for other people. Be mindful that you need to be able to kill the monsters relatively quickly in order complete this quest on very hard+. Ideal path is to take the data from monument 1 first on east and south (the right teleporter is the third one you see when entering the room). Then head on north to the purple switch to clear the path to collect data from monument 2. Then go and collect it (ignore the switches to the boxes if you have trouble clearing monsters fast). Then proceed to the monument 3 and then get ready to teleport to monument 4. It is important that you have collected the data from all other monuments, because only if you had done so an earthquake will happen and a teleporter towards the monument 5 will appear. Be prepared for the alien-demon bloodshed (and be sure to kill them fast).
  20. How do I use the quick techs menu in keyboard? I wish I had more than 10 + 6 keys to use for skills, so I really want to get access to that quick menu, which is probably comfier than using F3 to open the technique tab, browsing the technique tiers, and selecting a technique. Also, can you really cast skills with 0 delay? o-o I realize there is a Ctrl+End to change weapons quickly, which is really handy, but where is this quick techs menu or how can I add it?
  21. I can't use the character viewer :( it refuses to accept my password edit: thank you soly! Now it's fixed :D
  22. The governor hides in "single-player" mode, you have to make a game on "normal" mode (difficulty doesn't matter).
  23. Thank you very much, this clarifies a lot. I'm a nerd, I find this stuff fun ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
