OK, I'm sure this is going to annoy a few PC gamers, but is there a way to use a Wii Classic Controller as my controller for this game? I know I can connect the Wiimote using bluetooth.

I don't own a USB controller or a 360 pad wireless reciever and I hate keyboard controls.

Look up Glovepie and Joy2Key. Once you get your Wiimote connected to your pc, you can take advantage of your Classic Controller.

Glovepie will handled the Wiimote, Joy2key will let you remap buttons to keyboard presses. your main keys will be WASD for moving, Arrowkeys for action palettes, and Ctrl for swapping palettes.

Don't set drops to random if you're on Schthack. It's glitchy and doesn't realize when people leave or disconnect from the game which can cause the item to be given to nobody meaning it gets destroyed.

So it's pretty much the opposite of the old PSO days. Everyone uses finder. If you're playing with friends it's best to call what item you're hunting for and agree that you get that item if it drops. If you're playing with randoms, either hope they're polite or good luck.

I don't have any low level characters or open slots on my current accounts but if anyone would like for me to force for them on schthack for a few games, let me know.

Or if anyone wants to be power leveled I can do that too :lol: .

Good to know Gunstar. Thanks for the heads up. Ive played random on Shtchacks server and never noticed an issue, but then again there may have been an issue and the others never said anything.

I played Phantasy Star Portable, and am currently trying to figure out Blue Burst. It's a different beat. I'm playing on Schthack though.

Figuring out which button in Joy2Key corresponds to which classic controller button is a pain in the ass. Anyone know which is which?

Go to your start menu, chose control panel, then devices and printers. Find your controller, right click on it and chose the top option (should be something like Gamepad Settings). In that menu you should be able to see what button is what according to windows).
