Linux setup requires some manual configurations. | |||
<br>The following steps were written for an Arch-based distro - if you're running something else, you may need to alter them to fit. Your package manager may be different, as might be the package names. | |||
<br>STEP 1 installs Dolphin itself, OpenVPN (which allows the creation of your TAP interface), and bridge_utils, which allows the creation of the network bridge. Bridge_utils is generally considered deprecated but I like it anyway. If you want something considered more 'in-date' you can try the iproute2 package. | |||
<br>STEP 2 creates the TAP interface and the bridge, and links it all to your ethernet network. | |||
<br>STEP 3 compensates for making br0 your NIC - it now needs an IP address. This step will give it one. | |||
<br>STEP 1: | |||
<br>sudo pacman -S openvpn dolphin_emu bridge-utils | |||
<br>STEP 2: | |||
<br>sudo openvpn --mktun --dev Dolphin0 --dev-type tap --user abcde --group users #replace the value given to 'user' with your login name | |||
<br>sudo brctl addbr br0 | |||
<br>sudo brctl addif br0 Dolphin0 | |||
<br>sudo brctl addif br0 eno1 #if eno1 is not the name of your ethernet device, replace it with what is | |||
<br>sudo ip l set Dolphin0 up | |||
<br>sudo ip l set br0 up | |||
<br>sudo ip l set Dolphin0 promisc on | |||
<br>STEP 3: | |||
<br>sudo dhclient -v br0 | |||
<br>Q: I rebooted my Linux PC and my bridge is gone - what happened? | |||
<br>A: If you followed the network config changes above, these are not permanent, they exist only for the current session (for better or for worse, this is pretty typical Linux behaviour). You can re-enter each of the commands again to set the bridge up for your new session, or you can try a method of making it permanent. Making the bridge commands into a bash script and having it run it as a cron job when the PC starts might do the job. | |||
<br>Q: After running the script for Step 3 above, I partially lost Internet access after 15 mins or so! Dolphin online play and Discord voice chat still works, but I can't post text on Discord or open any webpages. What gives? | |||
<br>A: For whatever reason, dhclient comes with a timer. Run that step in your terminal again and everything will work again - I've never had this issue occur a second time after running that command again. | |||
<br>Q: On Linux, my controller doesn't work! What can I do? | |||
<br>A: For any Xbox controller, install the xpad package, and ensure that your controller configs in Dolphin are correct. | |||
For any other controller type (and there can be a lot), it might be easier to find your specific controller here: | |||

CONNECTION INFORMATION |
Getting StartedPhantasy Star Online ep 1&2 can be played online using a private server by various connection means. Connection methods described are for informational purposes. The original GameCube can be played online using a broadband adapter (BBA) or modem adapter, but this hardware is uncommon to come by. Windows, MacOS, and Linux operating systems are possible with emulation via Dolphin emulator (note that quest load times are poor using emulation). Wii console is capable of running backwards compatible after some modification by the addition of an application, the Wii itself is backwards compatible, however, it does not support online connections without modification. WiiU is also possible, but is more extensive to make functional. Online play for PSO is only made possible by private servers since Sega servers are no longer supported. Schthack Server is most popular and the website is here: Schthack Website.
