I think it would a good idea to mention these recommendations preferentially at the README of the toolchain or at any existent FAQ/Wiki.

Check also the thread http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=11075 where I applied Megaman's patch and experimented with ps2gdb. There were some issues regarding exceptions but I managed to get it working. What would nice now would be a gdb GUI or use Eclipse integrated support (it's already being...

Thanks for your lights. Unfortunately you don't seem to have a solution for me :( I believe cosmito fixed that issue in the SDL Doom port: I also added the option to force a specific display mode (PAL or NTSC) for whom needs it - So just rename the DOOM.ELF to something ending with PAL or NTSC at t...

Cosmito, I would like to know how you force PAL signal in your Doom port. Hi, Just to be fair to the authors, it's not my port. 99,9% of the hard work was made by Lukasz and Jason (I'm experimenting with the two ports). LOL! I was going to say that I'm not forcing PAL nor NTSC since I forgot I adde...

And why the DOOM_no_sound.ELF only loads from USB mass storage device? What's necessary to be HDD (uLaunchelf) compatible? ps2hdd.irx not loaded? Hi, Well it's necessary to add code to it for HD support. Currently I'm busy building a sound mixer from scratch so I can replace SDL_mixer from it. I co...

BTW, both gslib and PGEN have more recent sources compilable with recent sdk than the in the links provided by Lukasz. gslib is at the svn and PGEN elsewhere (at least in my hardrive it is :) )

Nice to hear that. By the way : I used the same initScreen() function with another rpogram that I made one week ago (a cool virtual keyboard :D ) I've got curious about your virtual keyboard... Can you give some details about it? Was it done to be re-usable? There are some nice v.keyboards for the P...

Did you compiled the cdvdlib or used an already compiled version?
If the latter case, if compiled against an older version of ps2sdk than your, then the weird issues may be justified.

What's the issue with fileio?

Great work! Just downloaded and going to try ASAP (the hotlinking is ok). And it would be a very nice extra if it already supports true low resolution modes, unlike the original option of a 320x256 texture scaled to a 640x512 PAL display.

Hey, don't be. Your english is better than mine and than others out there.

You should say that it "slowly crawls" instead of "runs" ;)

I made a class that keeps track of vram usage among the various gsPipe objects. It can allocate vram for textures, as well as be reinitialized, in case of a display mode change, scene change, etc. It could probably be merged with the gsDriver class but it might be helpful to have a separate object ...

My experience working with the SDL on the Doom port tells me that SDL is by no means complete nor properly tested. (...)

Accodingly to the authors of the USB driver, the write operations weren't enough tested, so there's the risk of data corruption. I may add support to save to USB, but in any way I will be resposible for any data loss... Sometimes I get amazed myself with the rubish I sometimes write :) Indeed I rea...

Thanks. Both seems easy to build. SOG = Sync on Green, right?

The best way to start is to look at the sdk examples, assuming you already know how to program in C. From there, you'll start to learn how things work on the PS2. There are some documentation scattered also, but not too much (programmers usually hate to document :) )

Good work.

Hello falconcool,

Could you post the link for the VGA cable you made, please?

falconcool wrote:And,i know there is a way to install $ony's linux RTE without modchip,if anyone interested in this,i will post my method

I guess there will be always someone interested :) As long you have the time to write it, go for it.

As far I know there is no documentation, but I guess the examples and source should guide you. Check the sdk's sources (ps2sdk\iop\tcpip).

Any news, updates, new releases or updates for this port? Yes and no... Updates only on an indirect way. I've been exploring how to do basic debugging on the PS2 since with little free time and no basic debugging I'll not go far. But keep tuned to my blog (see above) since any new announcements wil...

Yes sure. The HdProjectX does that, since it allows to backup and restore memory card images. I could not find the sources by myself from a quick search but have a go for yourself.

First of all, thanks for the work. Secondly, please host using other service.

A lazy question before trying : is it possible to anyone reconfigure it to PAL starting from the NTSC package you share?

So I fetched the ps2link sources from the repo planning to comment the exception handling section. After compiling the ps2link no longer catches the exception. To my surprise neither ps2gdb did! Looking more carefully to ps2gdb sources (as I should have done in the first place) I saw two issues : - ...

In order to launch an ELF linked with ps2gdbStub I use ps2link v1.51 and then invoke gdb at linux side. During a debugging session with a code written deliberately to cause an exception I was surprised to see the exception is not catched by the debugger but normally by the ps2link exception handler!...

Mega Man was right. Disabling the optimizer did the trick, so for the simple example it's then possible to inspect the contents of local variables 'i' and 'j'. Obviously I should have read the gdb manual first: Ninth Edition, for gdb version 6.8.50.20081018, page 86 Another possible effect of compi...
