Find JP/US ships, 50/60Hz mode

[Gotien]

A common problem we are asked about, is where are the JP and US ships when an EU player goes online. Well, it's because you are running the game in 50Hz mode. By default (for some reason), Sega doesn't tell you about the 60Hz mode and puts you in 50Hz mode. So when you try to go onilne, you will be presented with just one ship (as of 9th June 2004 this ship (Formhault) will/has be brought down and not replaced).

To enter 60Hz mode, hold down B when the GC starts up, until you are presented with a PSO screen. Not all TVs will support 60Hz but most TVs in the last 3 years should support it. Select the option and when you go online, you should be presented with all the ships available. When you switch off and on again, you won't need to hold down B as the screen will come up automatically.

Tnx.........yeah
