Issues unresolved
In-game FPS does not match specified FPS
- Due to how the game handles its FPS setting, capping the framerate at, for example, 120FPS will actually result in a framerate cap of 100FPS.[2]
- The unofficial English launcher is able to automatically partially-compensate for this.
Issues fixed
Cannot enable the Steam Overlay
- Without launching the game directly from
pso2.exe
, the Steam Overlay will not appear in-game.
Bypass the launcher[citation needed] |

- "- New code to account for SEGA's weird and wonky code for FPS values. Long story short, any values that are set for the FPS over 59 are approximate and become wrong very quickly. For example, the JP launcher sets 60 FPS in the config for 60 FPS. But the engine actually locks it to 59 FPS. Setting the config to 90 locks the game to 85. Setting it to 120 locks the game to 100. Crazy. Even crazier is that the higher your FPS is, the faster the game loads. - In order to change the FPS to what we actually want, the Tweaker will now set the FPS in the config to the closest approximation it can. This means that, in the config, the Tweaker will set the following values: desired value -> what it sets in the config (max FPS possible) 60 FPS -> 60 (max: 59) 90 FPS -> 101 (max: 92) 120 FPS -> 136 (max: 125) 144 FPS -> 160 (max: 144)"
