@dmizzle01 @dclivenet No, but Xbox players can play with Gamecube players. All versions can see each other and talk in the lobby, but not in-game unfortunately.

[Dreamcast Live @dclivenet]

It's time to climb those PSO leaderboards again! @ljsdcdev has started a new event on Sylverant! https://t.co/e44L41o2Pu

[Insignia (Moved to 🦋) @Insignia_Live]

Christmas is back on the Xbox with Phantasy Star Online; only this time it won’t be so Eternal!

@SchtServ, @ljsdcdev

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

@pcwzrd13 That's probably the case.

New Sylverant event beginning soon -- Candy Caper 3: https://t.co/5FuITaSHOM #sylverant #pso

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

And... Just like that, the maintenance is complete. Please let me know if anything is broken/not working/etc.

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

Sylverant will be down for a few minutes this morning for some maintenance. Hopefully this won't last more than 15 minutes or so.

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

@El_Comanche There is indeed a discord for the server, where many players communicate: https://t.co/YcpDXGU4JH
There is also a forum: https://t.co/6EYlEOzpg7 , although more people are definitely on the discord these days.
Hope you enjoy the server. :)

@dragonminded @GabeMoralesVR @Artemio Yeah, KOS definitely hasn't had support for "years" just yet (can't say 2 years until February). And it is definitely still nowhere near a state that I'd call it "usable" for anything more than the basics of getting something on the screen, as has already been said.

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

@GabeMoralesVR @matiasgoldberg Nope, but sometimes I do feel that way. 🤣

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

@RetroFaith1 @Otakon Glad to hear it. Enjoy. :)

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

Hope to see some of the Sylverant community at @Otakon this weekend. I will be presenting two panels on Sunday: "That Other Phantasy RPG Series: The History of Phantasy Star" and "By Land, Sea, and Air: The Art of War and Anime". #ConAtTheEndOfTheRainbow

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

@RetroFaith1 @Otakon Sorry for the late reply, but my suggestion would be to drop by the Sylverant Discord (https://t.co/YcpDXGU4JH) and ask for help there. If you'd rather not do that, I can try to help you out here too.

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

@ONESTARv2 Just normal maintenance. Mainly an upgrade of the OS installed on the server.
As for PSOX, everything is currently in a holding pattern. Insignia is still not open to the public, and we will not be able to open Sylverant for PSOX connections until then.

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

Sylverant will have a scheduled maintenance period tomorrow, Monday, April 12, 2021 from 09:00 to 12:00 EDT (13:00 - 16:00 UTC). During this time the PSO server and website will both be inaccessible.

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

Sylverant maintenance completed ahead of schedule. The server should be back to normal operating conditions. Please let me know if anything is broken.

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

The maintenance window may be shortened (that is to say the server may reopen earlier than the schedule above says), if conditions dictate that it can be.

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

@dragonminded @BobbyDilleyUK I'm just an old-school Dreamcast homebrewer (since 2001 or so), that someone gave a slight push to start looking at the Naomi too.

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

And now from the "once-in-a-blue-moon not Sylverant related tweets" department... I present an example from KallistiOS (the Dreamcast homebrew SDK) running on a NAOMI 2 arcade board.

[BlueCrab @ljsdcdev]

@dragonminded @BobbyDilleyUK Hey, it may not have been publicly released at all, but it still counts for running something, of course. :)

Thanks for your work with the Naomi, as your documentation and code have definitely been awesome.
