Server details
Here is a list of features implemented into the Schthack private server:
-Fully unlocked teams - No need to register points to unlock dressing room and other features.
-Balanced Episode IV drop rates - We've balanced all enemy drop rates to be fair to all Section IDs. You can find a chart of what each monster drops here.
-Rare item sharing - Similar to PSO's young brother, Phantasy Star Universe, you can set your game to share rare items in order or in a random order.
-New Japanese content - You can obtain new mags and other equipment on our server.
-Multiple version server - Our server allows multiple consoles to connect to the same server as PC users. You can chat in the lobbies together, however, you cannot play together.
-Language support - PC Ver. 2 supports Japanese, English, French, German, Spanish and Korean. Gamecube supports English and Japanese. Blue Burst supports English only, except for untranslated Japanese quests.
So, what do you need?
First, you need the game, alas, it's on Megaupload, so, that could be a problem for some. PSOBB
Then you need to apply this patch. This one is on Rapidshare. Patch
And after that, this patch. Japanese to English Patch

Also, if you want to play a game, you might have to organize it. This is one of those games where you make a room, people join you, then you go from there and play the game.
Oh, I forgot to mention. With the servers, some of the don't have translations for the japanese text. I mainly go to Skyline, usually because it's all english. Another thing, I have 4 characters. Snuggletummy, ChaosWolf, Epsilon, and Polaris.
The game supports gamepads as well. But, if you're using the keyboard, then this will help you greatly (The game is basically keyboard only anyway.) Keyboard layout
Edit: I just found this on their forum. It's a FAQ, and it's pretty in depth. FAQ
Another thing. The Japanese Patch thing. If it says that there was an error, I'd say to just not worry about that, as, it did to Luminaflare and I, and hasn't affected the game in any way.
Edit: I just made a guild called Metanet. I think the only way you can join is if we're in a game together.
