Playing as a FOmar in PSO v2 on Dreamcast

Post#1 » Sun May 06, 2018 1:15 pm

PSO on the Dreamcast gives you 3 character classes, with 3 variants of each class.
The GC/Xbox upgrades added a variant to each class, and one of these was the FOmar (Male Human Force).

However according to Unseen64, FOmar can be unlocked with a GameShark code for use in PSO v2. They don't state the code, nor link to a place that does, but they do provide an image of the DC v2 character builder with a FOmar being customised.

I tried a search online but couldn't find anything. Anybody aware of this code? I'd love to be able to try it out, if they're being accurate.

Lots of BETA stuff here, be interesting to see if any of it is locked away still in the retail release - especially the larger Pioneer 2 lobby.

I don't think you can actually play as a FoMar. That is just an unused npc skin applied to a character. It doesn't actually change the character's class.

if it is indeed present in the game code and accessible with the mentioned GS code, it could be enabled with a new version of the PSO patcher. AFAIK the pso patcher is just automated patching GS codes, the code to connect to sylverant is LONG if you used GS

PSOv2 has 5 skins: Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Rico, and Ninja. The Ninja skin was supposedly intended to identify GMs, but Sega never used it. The server can skin your character, but Sylverant doesn't implement this, because a) it's annoying seeing everybody use the same skins, and b) it makes legit players nervous when they see people walking around who are obviously cheating, which in turn reduces the server's reputation by making people afraid to play there, lest they get attacked in the ways that were so common back on the official server.

I'm guessing FOmar was the ninja skin. I haven't seen the other 4 either tho. Interesting.

Play "The Tinkerbell's Dog 2" to see the Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles skins in action. You have to solo it, but there are no monsters, so don't worry. ;)

I think he meant you have to play online, but it's a single-player quest.
