There are many people who dual log or have the capability to dual log, but don't know about or how to control two clients at once. I play most games dual logging and am proficient at it in games such as FFXI and PSO. So if you have a controller you are able to control two characters/clients at once. This does NOT work with just keyboard (although you can alt tab, its just not the same as controlling two clients at once). Step 1. You need a program such as Xpadder/Joytokey so you can map keyboard shortcuts to your controller. I've personally been using xpadder for 8 years, so i'll be using that in my examples. Step 2. Set up xpadder/joytokey to your controller. Mine is set up to look exactly how the xbox 360 controller layout is. http://imgur.com/a/u2y4N Step 3. Open PSOBB with controller plugged in and let it get to title screen Step 4. Unplugg controller, then proceed to open another PSOBB client and let it get to title screen Step 5. Plug controller back in and log into your two accounts you want to play as Step 6. Map WSAD to right joy stick http://imgur.com/a/rHgbw Step 7. Have the client you unplugged the controller for active. Now I personally have the client I had the controller plugged in while starting on the left, and the one where I unplugged for client start on the right. So I will be referencing it in that aspect. Having the right client active you can now use your right joy stick to move the right client, and left joystick to move the left client. Now that's just the very basics of how to control two clients at once just so you can run around both characters at the same time. As you have probably noticed if you play with a controller, there are MANY unused buttons. Using the XBOX360 controller as an example, L2 (left trigger), L3 (pressdown of left joystick), R2 (right trigger), R3 (pressdown of right joystick), 2 keys of directional pad (D-pad), and select. You can map those to do whatever you want. In my examples i'll be using a Force character since that's mainly all I use as my other character. http://imgur.com/a/M5xU7 In this picture this is how I have mine personally set up. My L2 (Left trigger) is set to the left arrow on the keyboard, which as you can see is linked to Resta in my action bar. I also have R2 (right trigger) linked toright arrow for zalure. on the directional pads I have left D-pad to 1, which if pressed will cast shifta. If I press right i'll cast deband. I also have select as Shift f1 which gives the command for /lobby. Now these are just what I chose to do, you can do anything you want and put any of the buttons anywhere you want. This post is not created to talk about multiplayer vs solo player, or the ups/downs of dual logging. Please refrain from discussing those. If you have any questions feel free to ask or PM, i'd love to help you out. If you see anything that needs clarification I can also fix that. Thanks for your time.

Hello mate ! You just came on this server, you barely know about PDS (http://www.phantasystaronline.net/forum/index.php/topic/341-photon-drops-info) and already, people are talking about DTS... So what is this strange beast, and how to get your way around that... WHAT IS IT ? In order to maintain the server alive (since well everything come with a price), you have the wonderful possibility to make a donation to the server. When you make a donation, you get what we call DTS or DT, standing for Donation TicketS. 1 DT = 1 $ DTS can then be used for at least two things : - Redeeming things in this list : https://www.phantasystaronline.net/forum/index.php?/announcement/13-item-list-donations/ - Trading with other players How to get it ? First, you need to visit this page : https://www.phantasystaronline.net/forum/index.php?/donate/make-donation/ When you've been through the procedure, you will then receive a automatic personal message (pm) from @Larva, with "New Donation" as the title. (Larva will most probably never read it, so don't lose your time trying to answer him ^^) Just to be sure, the message will be the following : What to do with it ? 1. To redeem for donation list item/service In that pm, you will see at the top something like (outside the Conversation box area) : Click on "add" and enter the name of one of the GM (@cyane and @Soly by example) Then, if you want to redeem for something in the donation list. Well, make a nice post in that pm asking for what you want. The GM will put the item on one of your character (first slot by default, but if you're online with your first character it will be on second slot, something like that). You can also ask a GM on the chat or in game. If they have enough time and you ask nicely enough =) they will ask you to "up the pm" which means you have to post in the pm where your DTs are so that they can see it. They can then join you in a room in game and redeem on the spot. 2. To trade with a player - Add the player to the pm (yes still the one with your DTS, that you get from that Larva) the same way you've added the GM before (even if you do not redeem, DO ADD A GM before adding someone else). That way, people knows that you have enough DTS to make the trade. - Post a message in this pm saying something like : "x DTS to thatguy" where 'x' is the number of DTS and 'thatguy' is the pseudo of the trader (the forum pseudo). You can also write a true sentence like "I give x DTS to thatguy for that item and also that" - The trader will give you what he/she promised you in exchange of the dts. It will happen in game, you need to make a party (with password or not, free to you) and the trader will join the room (if you told him the room's name and the password via pm before, of course) and give you what he/she owes you (according to the terms of your previous agreement). Simply put : Add the trader to the pm > post how much you give him > make a room and share the name/password with the trader > get your items A bit of informations about trading... People used to trade 15 DTS for 99 PDS, so like 1 DTS for 6.6 PDS That is not set in stone and will depend on the market/trader, obviously. Key points -DTS are stored as post on the forum in your PMs, therefore it's not an in game item. -You need to add people to the pm with your DTS in order to sell them. -You need to be added to the pm with other people's DTS in order to buy them. -If you have DTS in many different PMs, you need to ask a GM to move them all in one PM in order to be able to use them as a whole. (if you wanna buy something worth 10 DTS and you have 2 PMs with 5 DTS each, gather them first before the trade) -In order to move your DTS, the GM must first be added in both pm. -When you don't have any DTS left in a pm, you may leave this pm. Make really sure there is nothing left. -Obvious but : only GM can redeem things from the Donation List. You just don't need to meet them in game in order to get the items. Tips -Most of the time, it is CHEAPER to just get the item from the players than from the Donation List. So don't get in a hurry, take your time to ask people around. They will not eat you, eventually. -When 15 dts = 99 pds, it is cheaper to sphere your weapons with dts than with pds. 15 dts get you + 35 % where 99 pds get you + 30 % (don't even argue with yourself, YES, 5 % is a big difference ^^) -Do not trade all of your pds in dts. You need to keep some pds in your bank (like 50-99 would be a good thing ^^ optimally ofc) because some GM's event will ask you for pds every once in a while, and at that time the dts value is greatly decreased. -Considering the above point, try to think that way : only trade your pds for dts when you need it and no more than the amount you need. PDs will most likely always be a more reliable value than DTs. That's it for now. If I made some mistakes (I must have ! One cannot be just flawless...), please feel free to correct me and point out what's wrong. If it's incomplete, well post your two cents and I will add it (with credits !) to that post. If you have a question... do I need to hold your hand ?
