• PSOBB multi-installation notice

    A number of players have been recieving the beta software for PSO Blue Burst USA early from Computer Gaming World magazine. (myself included.) Some players also have had thoughts of using their JP accounts to try to log in early to start in english mode earlier than anyone else and to see if this means the servers are indeed connected. However these players are being faced with a problem. As soon as they log in, the game switches over to Japanese again and there is no way to switch it back to english once it has been done, thus forcing a reinstallation of the USA files.

    Basically to sum it up, If you have a JP account and the PSOBB USA beta files, do not attempt to log in until you have a USA account. The status of connected servers at this point remains unknown.

    EDIT: A fix has been found to this problem, and indeed confirms that the servers will likely not be linked (at least for the beta) as I tried this new method and it wouldn't log in with my JP account.

    I have found a way for PSOBB EP4 players to install US version correctly.

    1. uninstall your PSOBB EP4 JP version
    2. install PSOBB US version
    3. get the patch of PSOBB US
    4. install PSOBB EP4 JP version
    5. get the patch of PSOBB JP

    Then both PSOBB EP4 and US version can work correctly.

    Our thanks to riconew for this fix.

      Seems like common sense not to try in log in/patch your client yet. And why would the servers be linked for a beta?

      That's what they get for being impatient. :P

      I guess the servers wont be connected until it goes live though.
