What was decided was that ps2dev would move to freenode from efnet by roughly all the admins here and the op's, yes #pspdev on efnet still seems to be active, and so be it, we dont force everyone to move over, actually its been quite nice, alot more actual devtalk on freenode.

Theory is sound. easiest is maybe C code for you, if not then use vu code since its less opcodes.

Get the toolchain and ps2sdk up and running on your machine, then start coding, there is plenty of example code gode when it comes to gfx, as a sidenote you could use for example gsKit for displaying images etc. read up on www.ps2dev.org -> tools to get the toolchain and ps2sdk running.

either download the ps2dev toolchain, or do as I said with the latest binutils and gcc-4.0 wich you can get from ftp.gnu.org.

I would think too the MIPS sde def does produce better code - its like the ADS ARM compiler, they have used their own MIPs based info to produce this. The sde-gcc mips options for example are quite different to 2.95, or 3.x.. and the docs mention that they have put effort into this (as most chip ma...

the compiler itself doesnt produce better code than the equivalent gcc version, however some of the libs have pretty good code, albeit most of that is math and something you would want to offload onto vfpu anyway. Making ee-gcc produce usabel 32bit code isnt hard btw, the only problem is that you ca...

the r4k in the psp is strictly 32bit, no 64 bit opcodes work ( apart from daddu, but it doesnt add numbers, still havent figured what daddu is on psp r4k ). the fpu doesnt have acc so msub, msuba, madd etc wich exists on ee, so dont use those opcodes. the dp emulation exists in libgcc, so unless you...
