Oznacza to, ¿e byæ mo¿e zim¹ tego roku, a napewno wiosna 2002 zagramy na domowych PC w FF IX! Wiadomoœæ ta jest tym wspanialsza, ¿e kolejna czêœæ sagi uka¿e siê tylko na PS2, które w naszym kraju wci¹¿ pozostaje produktem drogim, co mo¿e odsun¹æ nieco seriê FF w cieñ. Wydanie dziewi¹tki na PC napewno przed³u¿y ¿ywotnoœæ serii. Czekamy i trzymamy kciuki, jednoczeœnie pozostaj¹c w kontakcie ze Square, który - co tu kryæ - pochwali³ nasz serwis!

Now I'll try to translate this into english (it is very hard cause i don't know english very well.. :)
They just write that they have recieved lots of mail about news that was in Secret Service newspaper (nr90/05/2001) about the PC version of Final Fantasy 9 (some people thought it was a joke). The Fantasy Garden contacted Square and they recieved answer: "(...) We've been working on this project for almost six months now, and I can say it's kind of advanced now, and FF IX PC will be shipped near the winter season '01. (...)"
That only fragment of it...
It seems that maybe this winter or for sure spring 2002 there should be PC version of final fantasy 9. The rest of this news is not interesting...
Does someone know something about it? Is that true or they're wrong??????????

- Fix the sounds (the moogle is messed up).
- On some cards, the backgrounds (when enlarged to 640x480 + resolution) look like junk (little black lines around the borders of everything), and if you turn off the filtering they're blocky - I dunno if this can be fixed? I dunno if it's like that on all cards or not?
- Make it easier to set up for stupid people.
There 'ya go. I bet sometime there'll be a sound plug-in that does the sound right.
When I use Pete's O GL pluggin, the World Map in FF Tactics doesn't display . . . but I'm only running in 16 bit color. I'll have to see if 32 bit color fixes that.
The text is also blocky and blurry with the OpenGL pluggin for me. I use the Software one, it works pretty good (and surprisingly doesn't seem to be slower than the OpenGL or D3D.)

Lots of cards run like junk in OpenGL. Software runs on any card and its speed doesn't depend as much on your video card as it does on your processor's speed (500-600 mhz should get you full framerate in almost every game though).
