| ==Game patches==

| The ''Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity'' community has provided various enhancements and edits to improve the experience, ranging from 60 FPS patches, the ability to play online-only missions in ad hoc multiplayer, improved high-definition textures, and more.

It allows people to join a network and connect to each other seamlessly without requiring router setups, port forwarding, or other such confiruations. We recommend this program currently as it is free and has crossplay with mobile devices running PPSSPP.
| |
| # Install '''Zero Tier One''' on your system.
| |
| # The program will be in the system tray in the bottom right; right click it and click '''Open Control Panel'''.

| # In the window that comes up, enter the string '''b6079f73c6cd58c5''' in the bottom box and click '''Join Network'''.

| # You should now see the '''PSP2i''' network come up -- click it and you will see a lot of extra information, including '''Managed IPs'''.
| |
|
| |
| Now that you are connected to the PSP2i network, you will need to do some setup in PPSSPP:
| |
|
| |
| # In PPSSPP, click '''Game settings''' → '''More settings''' → '''Networking'''.
| |
| # Change your settings on the page to the following:
| |
| ::: '''Enable networking/WLAN''': On

| ::: '''Change MAC Address''': Make sure to click this at least once to get a random MAC Address
| |
| ::: '''Enable built-in PRO ad hoc server''': On

|
| |
| You are now fully setup to play multiplayer with other players! When going to play with other players, follow the below steps:
| |
|
| |
| # Decide who will host the game.
| |
| # In PPSSPP networking settings, all players must set '''Change PRO ad hoc server IP address''' to the Zero Tier Managed IP of the host (without the /16).
| |
| # Make sure that all players are using the same '''port offset''' as well; 1100 is recommended for compatibility with mobile devices.
| |
| # Restart PPSSPP to make sure the settings change.
| |
| # In-game, go to '''Multi Mode''' and form/join party as necessary, and you should all be good to go!
