    Default Testers wanted for PSO fix for offline Episode 2 Quests (From Quest Pack 4 mostly)

    If you are wandering what I talking about then you do not know that I released quests that replace the Episode 1 offline quests with online quests

    The ones from Episode 2 have problems on Hard, Very Hard & Ultimate, this problem caused the monsters not to drop items

    I am not high level enough at this time to test on Very Hard or Ultimate (Not really high enough for Hard yet either) anyway I have done a small amount of testing on Hard and seem to be able to get drops working

    P.S. I don't think there was ever an issue with Beta and Alpha Ruins and Spaceship as the beasts are from Episode 1 anyway (though the fix may change what they drop as well)

    There are just two files to fix this (please note only use this when playing EP2 quest files, normal EP2 play should be unaltered, EP1 normal play and EP1 quests in EP1 with this will most like result in no drops)

    P.S. the attached is a 7z file not a zip

    just extract this to it's own folder, inside there are two folders, Episode 1 Drops (this contains the original files) & Episode 2 Drops (this contains edited files to fix drops for Episode 2 quests started in Episode 1) both the folders contain the same files just one lot is altered, I included both sets so you can restore it if something messes up or you just want to play some EP1 quests

    Take the 2 files from the Episode 2 Drops folder and ftp them to the dvd sub folder of the PSO install, it is fine to over wright the original files

    myself I have 3 versions of this game on my xbox the original version with all the original quests, Episode 1 that is much like the original but has Episode 1 online quests in the offline game and Episode 2 that just has Episode 2 online quests in Episode 1's offline mode and has the fix included

    I just need to know this is working for Very Hard and Ultimate, for the Episode 2 online quests launched from Episode 1 offline

    Once I know it works I will pack these with the quest packs with the correct drop charts for each episode

    I am fairly new at modding consoles. I do have a level 172 HUCast that I could use to test if you still need some help with testing. It would not be until next weekend though, since I have relatives coming to visit this coming weekend. You can reply here, or message me on my 360. My gamertag is kevlarAK

    Too slow I already fixed this

    There are still a couple of quests that need to be replaced but that's about it

    I have the fix posted separate in the Xbox uploads section of the forum it also has a handy NPC mod that can reset the offline quests along with other things a little like you can in the The Construct quest, except it works
