I found out the problem.

I had texture mapping enabled, which I shouldn't when not using it.

but..

I shouldn't put texture coordinates and color info in the struct if I don't specify a texture format and color format in the call to sceGuDrawArray.

And besides, my geometry seems correct, which means that the function sees the vertex format I specified.

Rendered objects are all black.

Hi. I have managed to render some objects on the screen. My vertices contain no color information, only coordinates struct Vertex { float x,y,z; }; To set the colod I call sceGuColor( 0xffffff00 ); Then render the objects using sceGuDrawArray( GU_TRIANGLES,G...

Writing text to the screen.

Hi.

I'm trying to convert a simple windows 3d app I have to PSP. I've implemented everything now, but there's no output.
Is there a way I can write text to the screen so that I can get some debugging information out.

Nice. But I can only find info on the tools then. Is there any documentation for the SDK itself?

How to read the manual?

Hi.

I have installed the PSP toolchain on my windows machine.
I can see that in the directory C:\cygwin\usr\local\pspdev\man\man1 there's a lot of file with text and some markup in a format I'm not familiar with.

What tool can I use to view those files?

EE C++ compiler reports an error, but shouldn't

Hi. I have a piece of code that the EE c++ compiler refuses to compile. I would believe that it is perfectly legit code, and the MS C++ also accepts it. It appears that if I have a base class that has a function that accepts a reference to a class instance, and I call that function from a subclass, ...

... I've never heard of anyone using templates for cross-platform code. Although I'd like to see an example of how that would work (and still compile). It's not the templates that are the base of cross-platform code. The templates are just helper classes, e.g. smart pointers. It's the class hierarc...

well... I've been occupied for a bit, and now the thread became a bit off-topic :) By using OOP I mean abstract class inheritance is used to create abstractions. E.g. I have defined a Model. The model is a container of geometrical data. You can ask a model to render on the screen. A windows implemen...

Help wanted for multi-platform game engine

Hi. I'm working on a small game project on sourceforge called Spindizzy, which is a remake of the 80s game of the same name. Part of the project is developing the game engine, called the DizzyEngine. The engine has been designed to be platform indepenant, i.e. the same game code could compile into a...
