A player using a skin for Baranz Launcher to recolor it blue.

Skins are visual modifications to Phantasy Star Online Blue Burst that change how something looks in game. These modifications are local only, meaning that only the player who has installed the skin will be able to see it, while all other players will still see the original look.

Skins can modify everything in game, but some popular examples of skins are:

  • Character costumes
  • HUD
  • Areas

Skins are installed by placing the skin file in the appropriate location in the game files. For all skins listed here, they will be installed by extracting the downloaded archives into the root Ephinea PSO folder.

Submitting a skin[edit | edit source]

If you have created a skin and wish for it to be listed here, feel free to create a page using the template on "this page" (there will be a link here). Each skin can have a maximum of four images uploaded to the wiki for preview, with one image as the main image to be displayed on the lists.

Please note that all skins listed here must be uploaded to our servers to avoid link rot, so please message Matt on the forums with a link to your skin so it can be packaged and uploaded for direct download. If you wish to provide an external mirror, this is fine, but make sure that the skin can be installed by extracting the files into the main Ephinea folder so users do not have to extra individual files in multiple locations.

If you're not entirely sure what you're doing, please message Matt either on his user talk page or on the forums so we can get the appropriate pages created. Please do not message a member of staff on an instant messaging platform.
