Call for samples

Post by **mrbrown** » Thu Jun 30, 2005 3:30 pm

As you've probably noticed there are a whopping two samples in PSPSDK currently, sdktest and chp's libgu cube sample. This is unacceptable.

We'd like for the community to submit sample code they think should be included in PSPSDK. Here's the type of code we're looking for:

Each sample should demonstrate one feature or concept. It's OK to have a small amount of support code that may be reused across samples, but a sample shouldn't implement a library.
Samples should only comprise one or two source files, and two is stretching it.
Samples must clearly describe their function, and any code surrounding the sample's function must be adequately documented. It's OK to include a README if you feel it's necessary.
Samples must build using PSPSDK's build.mak (just see the other samples for details on how it's used, or ask).

You shouldn't worry too much about which category your sample belongs to - we'll figure that out as we go along. Oh, and I think we can do with only one file browser sample :). Try to be original, and concise.

Have fun!

No, don't put requests in here. Only links to working samples.

Thanks!

I've written an control/input demo. I'll email it to you directly.

Sony Integrated Remote Control System (SIRCS), stubbed, sampled and submitted.

It can turn on a slim PS2, and play/pause the DVD controls.

I don't have write access to SVN repository, but see this topic for an IrDA communication between two PSPs, should be added to the samples.

Ive just got the PSPSDK installed and working :)

I am looking for a new version of hello world that has exit capability.

Also, some basic I/O for the buttons would be great :)

You have already asked about this in a different thread, and if you look at the 3rd post in this thread, you can see that mrbrown specifically says:

Please avoid redundent posts and keep threads on-topic.

*edit*
There are working I/O and exit samples in the current SDK, please get a copy of subversion, checkout the SDK and get crackin with that.

based from Nem's code . cleaned up a lot

I looked through it, and from what I can see, you're calling sceGuDrawBuffer() outside of sceGuStart()/sceGuFinish(). This is BAD. sceGuDrawBuffer() pushes registers onto the command-list, and if it works for you, it's just dumb luck, really.

Instead, wrap the whole thing like this:

sceGuStart(GU_DIRECT,list);
sceGuDrawBufferList(GU_PSM_4444,(void*)renderTarget,offscreenTexture.stride);
// ... render to rendertarget ...
sceGuDrawBuffer(GU_PSM_4444,(void*)frameBuffer,BUF_WIDTH);
// ... render to main buffer ...
sceGuFinish();

sceGuDrawBufferList() works just as sceGuDrawBuffer(), except it does not store the information about the buffer in the context. (It also does not change the zbuffer pointer, but that should still be the same anyway)

I'll take a go at your sample and see if I can make it work the "proper" way.

EDIT: Ok, sample submitted. I tweaked the code to use sceGuDrawBufferList() instead of sceGuDrawBuffer(), which removed the issues with black screen when called from within sceGuStart/sceGuFinish. I'll look into why it acted up like that, and if it can be remedied.

just wondering is there any c++ examples available in the sdk yet? if so where might it be?

Thanks for fixing the sample.

I was using sceGuDrawBuffer() within sceGuStart/sceGuFinish and it was working iirc with sdk approximately 3 weeks old. However, when I wrote the sample for the recent sdk it was behaving strangely, so I put it outside :) (I managed to completely miss the sceGuDrawBufferList() function).

updated and fixed the wav loading sample

now loads the samples that JJpeerless reported as broken
looping works
still not in SVN :)

I did one more sample demonstrating simple shadowmapping using GU texture projection functionality (and rendering to offscreen buffer).

This is a useful tool when you need a rapid compile/load/run cycle on the psp. This sample activates the usb port and reloads itself via KernelLoadExec when you hit the Start button.

All three links are dead :( Is it available anywhere else without updating my sdk?

you could access svn and download from there for example http://svn.ps2dev.org anyway if the sdk is old don't expect that all samples builds fine

I'm looking to get a copy of your wavloader example, and even after a lengthy traul through multiple forums/google I've been unable to find a copy of it. It has also been removed from both of your sites. I was wondering if you, or anyone else reading this has a copy of the example source code, as it would come in very handy for a project I'm working on currently.

Thanks,
James
