int mystrp = *char; mystrp is a pointer that refers to the first byte of mystr char *mystrp = mystr; If it's hex then that would work even better because the size would be smaller No, there's no difference between char mystr="ABC"; and char mystr[]={0x41, 0x42, 0x43, 0x00}; char imagedata...

Sorry to double but it's been a couple days. GU Lesson 1 - Things I don't understand: 1) There are some variables declared like so: u32 tickResolution; u64 fpsTickNow; Is this unsigned ints of 32 bits and 64 bits respectively? Yes. 2) The vertex structs are created with this thingy in the declarati...

libmikmod and mikmodlib can play a lot of different modules, and can also be used to play mono samples.

Either you're using Cygwin, in which case modifying the Windows environment variables is retarded - you need to add the paths to your Cygwin environment - or you've installed a Windows based PSP SDK in which case you're reading the wrong faqs.
Your sig is retarded too.

Jim

Now I just need to figure out why my app reports I'm out of memory

I suspect another endian problem, just a little further in.
Normally
malloc (0x00 00 00 01)
becomes
malloc (0x01 00 00 00)
and you run out of ram.

Jim

serialization can be useful for other things like data transfer between 2 PSPs for multiplayer and whatnot I don't grok this either. Are you expecting the PSP on the other end of the connection to be running different-endian, different-ieee754, different CPU, different OS, different vendor, differe...

Brasso? That worked on my mobile phone screen. It takes ages (hours) to knock the scratches out, but it works... You can also get even finer plastic polishes.

Jim

Your high score tables have pointers in to other data structures?!
Come on, .net style serialization isn't necessary here.

Jim

Just use fread/fwrite on the whole data structures. Way easier than writing out all the elements by hand.

Jim

:-P

I don't know how the PSP hardware works, but on PS1 the hardware could 'early out' of a 2d triangle that went over the right or bottom of the screen - it would just stop drawing spans at the right, and stop rasterizing at the bottom, so you got 2d clip for free. But at the left and top, the rasteriz...

You don't clip vertices, you clip triangles. So each triangle which is 3 of those vertices gets clipped and might generate some extra vertices and some extra triangles. So, I guess, if you have 50 vertices, you can start adding extra vertices at the end of that space, 51, 52, etc - just make sure yo...

Want to make 3d models and see them on the PS? Then use any of those 3d packages, but there's nothing in the SDKs that lets you use them directly - you'll need to write or borrow a loader and write your own renderer.

SceIoDirent dir;
You need to clear dir else it will sometimes crash
SceIoDirent dir = {0};
fixes that.

Jim

Nothing weird about it. Noone uses them and would almost certainly roll their own if they needed one. If you come up with a drop-in replacement, why not add it to PSPGL in SVN? Then it'll always be there for everyone else.

Jim

Either it can't find the C compiler (paths wrong) or some libs are missing, usually libc (paths wrong, or libc or something else didn't build).

Jim

This is a cygwin error, right? It's a problem a number of people have and it's a bug in cygwin that doesn't seem to be being fixed. Possibly it happens when resources are low - low ram, overactive virus scanner, spyware etc.
Try updating your cygwin install first of all.

Jim

Android is based on Linux kernel 2.6 which, one assumes, requires an MMU which means PSP is out as a platform.

Jim

uclinux != linux

You really are barking up the wrong tree without a paddle.
Jim

It's either a hash or a signed hash. We don't know the hashing algorithm, the key for the signature or the signature algorithm, though we can take a stab at the first and last of those.
I doubt they're as simple as the ones on the Datel .xpo .xps files.

Jim

It's the difference between
unsigned char i1 = 8;
and
unsigned char i1 = '8';

Jim

pspsdk works fine under cygwin, on xp or vista. You don't need Linux.
Jim

It's not a bad abstraction - store = xmit, retrieve = recv, etc. etc.
A bit peculiar though.

Jim

You're right. It's dead tiresome. Why don't you PM me directly?

Jim

What JF is saying is that learning assembly is learning assembly, no matter the platform. Learning PSP programming is a separate task. You almost certainly won't find a tutorial that teaches you both in one step.

Jim

??? clearly the wires must be insulated from one another or the Sony gear wouldn't work. Admittedly they're very delicate, but, obviously, the copper in the sheath is isolated from the copper inside the core.

Jim

Allocate the memory in your user area and pass a pointer to the kernel code.
