- Dark-SuN’s Windows Admin. Permissions Fix
Client Update:
- ver.1.0101.0
- Dark-Sun’s Windows Admin. Permissions Fix
Patch Size
- 4.3GB
When you start the launcher, it should automatically update, If it doesn’t update properly, please restart the launcher. You can confirm these version numbers at the lower left corner of the Launcher, and lower right corner of the Game Client.
Patch Notes
- Currently Unavailable (Check back later)
(If you are downloading the game for the first time, you will have to download an update which requires 2.4GBs of free space.)
As of September 12th, 2012, the Downloader program for Phantasy Star Online 2 has now updated. This is intended for people who have not downloaded PSO2 before.
You do not need to download this if you already have PSO2.

They're new form of updating is interesting… It seems to run a file check before the launcher even starts up. Wonder how this will affect everyone's friendly neighborhood English patch.

Has anyone finished the download? If you have, can you put the patched files on a file hosting service? My shitty connection is keeping the patch from finishing.

Access to a server is concentrating.
Today's connection is difficult.
It is the same also from Japan.

I tried the english patch after It patched and I successfully got on and it broke it. I get an error message now and I'm not sure what it is.
English Patch now broken?
dRage
September 11th, 2012 at 10:33 pm
The current english patch is based on the files from the previous update and since this update changes most of the game's files you'll have to wait for an updated english patch to be released.
iim
September 11th, 2012 at 10:36 pm
is there a way to skip file check :groar:
since i got a lot of error.
and the file check is taking forever. thats hell lot of wasting time :tsk:

September 11th, 2012 at 10:38 pm
Servers are still down.
Rasseru
September 11th, 2012 at 10:48 pm
I would think, the servers are down since they had a large update. It also afternoon in Japan. If they had problems in updating?
They would fix it at this time than later at busy hours.

Restarted. Game loaded fine, then crashed as I changed block.
Restarted. Grinded a little. Crashed in desert again.

@Aewyn
Any idea what the quest would be for forces?
Aewyn
September 12th, 2012 at 1:12 am
Sorry, I'm not sure… I can confirm it's Rifle for Vol Dragon on Ranger, though.

September 12th, 2012 at 1:15 am
I see thanks for the info…
Can you update us if ever you get to know what the quest would be for forces as well?

after i patched the game, and try to patch it using the english patch, then all i see is a black screen right after loading the game, and seen some Japanese error window, and it closes..
anyone else is having that issue?

Are you certain that is all we need to know? How about who to obtain the quest from? How abound the prerequisite quest I keep hearing about?
Luis

English patch is not working right now. Going to have to wait until it's updated. As for your error, try restarting your pc ect. If that doesn't work sounds like you are going to have to recheck all of your files. If that doesnt work, clean install.

@ betweenTHElines
Hunters get the Client Order for Darker Item x50 from their class client (Lisa, Marlu, Ohza). After collecting the x50, turn them in and get the kill order from Koffie. I still do not know the Force requirement from Koffie, sorry.

For those interested I made a tool to set the permissions on PSO2's exe.
You can download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?si2xfxsnpi73g4g
This tool can be used with any PSO2 version, if PSO2's exe path is not found browse to it then click the Apply button.

Hello DarK-SuN,
Could you do a .exe with permission fixed and Large Adress Aware enabled with CFF Explorer for 64-bits users (allows the programm to use more than 2GB RAM)? It seems there's a protection against "modified" .exe now.
Thanks!

i had an error No.103 message at around 70% of the client update.
What do you guys recommend me to do ?
Greg
September 13th, 2012 at 1:46 pm
Hi it's me again, i don't understand what happened.
But i suddenly downloaded the patch at the speed of light.
I don't believe the files was stored or anything so i believe they finally bought some server power.
Hope you guys will be able to patch now !

hey same here i just put in the english patch and now i think I just broke the gameand I was just playing it in japanese why you gotta break ballz sega why. but anhyway anyone have a fix on this yet or a way to revert it back to japanese
SephiRK
September 13th, 2012 at 9:20 pm
joshua, thanks for the link, I have trouble downloading the patch from the server since it keep getting error.
joshua
September 13th, 2012 at 9:35 pm
@mejinomaru you should create a backup of the japanese one copy all of those folders onto another just in case you brake the game
@sephiRK heres what i did: installed the game from the installer, then i extracted that manual patch( i replaced it all theres like 5 files to replace) also i replaced the patcher and client updater fix. even with all of this, it needed more files and took like 2 hours for that one. remember that the hours in japan are diferent (in my case 13+ hours) you gotta have patience.

Reuploading it again in 200MB files, maybe I shouldn't have uploaded the exe's…
Also, keep showing mirrors!

September 14th, 2012 at 2:05 am
The game freezes along with my computer after 1 or 2 mins and before that it was perfectly working. The only way to get it unstuck is force rebooting my PC and I don't think I should keep doing that.
Is there any way to fix this?
