hi everyone,

I have compiled the PSP toolchain to be used, i wish to share it with you other mac users who are having trouble with it

1) follow steps 1 - 4 on http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=5391

2) Download the DMG from
www.dosgames.com/~wally4000/PSPDEVtoolchain.dmg
and mount to desktop

3) Click the desktop and press Apple - shift - G and type /usr/local/pspdev

4) Extract contents of dmg to /usr/local/pspdev

THIS WILL NOT WORK ON LINUX OR WINDOWS as its specifically for Intel Macs. (iMac, Macbook, Macbook Pro, MacPro)

Enjoy!

I installed it :), thanks... I did have a problem with step four (of the other tut), so I don't know if it will compile right... How do you compile on mac anyways? like on windows? point to the project folder then put make?

compiling is done the same way,this just takes a load of time off.

Follow the other tutorial to compile the entire source (takes about 1 hour on an intel mac with 2.0ghz and 1gb ram)

nah you dont have to, just type make or ./configure (if you declared the variables properly) it should work

How would I install the SDL and pspgl libraries? I tried the svn commands you would use in cygwin, but that doesn't work...

Install SVN (Download the source from subversion.tigus.org (i think))

type ./configure
after process type make
then sudo make install and your password

then try

Hmmm, still not working... I am suppose type this svn co svn://svn.pspdev.org/psp/trunk/SDL into terminal, right?

Wally · Joined: 26 Sep 2005 Posts: 672

yep..

I think you might need to move the svn program from usr/local/bin to /usr/bin

typing

cd /usr/local/bin
sudo cp svn /usr/bin

should do it

it worked :d Thanks...

Do you know if you need to do these steps when installing it after you dl it?c

ah you have to set up your system variables as mentioned on the other docuument

To save you frustration

3. Set Environment Variables
Open a Terminal, and type the following commands
Code:

cd ~/
vim .bash_profile

Once inside vim, type the following lines, then press escape, colon (: ) and then type wq (write and quit) followed by enter. It is very important to not miss any quotation marks below.

NOTE: You can do this in another editor, but make sure to save the filename correctly. For example, using TextEdit will save the file as .bash_profile.rtf instead of .bash_profile

Code:

export PSPDEV="/usr/local/pspdev"
export PSPSDK="$PSPDEV/psp/sdk"
export PSPPATH="$PSPDEV/bin:$PSPDEV/psp/bin:$PSPSDK/bin"
export PATH="/sw/bin:$PATH:$PSPPATH"
