Hi and welcome!
Good to see you got it going

Honestly, I'm trying to learn much more about programming. I have a very basic grip of C at the moment and I'm trying to learn more, so I wanted to take a shot at PSX homebrew, specifically demos; I like new challenges and I love working with older platforms :) Cool, there's a big learning curve, a...

I didn't want to spam that PSXERIAL USB cable thread, so replying here. no problem. I did write a guide on here. If you struggle following it let me know I will help you build one then edit the guide. The hardest part of the whole build is just working out which pin in the connector belongs to which...

welcome...
what do you want to do?

Very impressive!

Thanks for the info!
That's fare enough, and not a bad price.
I might give it a try as a DIY project.

Yeah, it's a great little system to understand C, 2D and basic 3D for sure!

how much more?
I would be interested in a Net Yaroze compatible cable

Oh you mean converting binary to C code? Linux has a program called od or google bin2c, which does that, but I wouldn't recommend it, it's a waste of RAM, unless you plan on reusing that space again. "For example, the Nintendo 64 uses arrays of colors for the textures. There is a function where...

Anyone actually used early V3? It's not 2.X it's the update to V3 (no English translations on libs docs), I'm keen to see anything from 2.X Interesting to see it.. I can't believe in 1995 they still only had libGS?? is that correct? I'm still trying to figure out when Sony gave up on it :shrug I'm s...

I started out with PSX development with barely no knowledge about C programming and, after many years , coding for the PSX allowed me to get a job on the embedded SW development area. You shouldn't feel discouraged for what people might tell you if you dream about coding for the PSX. I hightlighted...

Oh that's cool! welcome! IMO, it's a great challenge, it's very old school, Computer Science! You'll be a better programmer for it, for sure! You don't need a yaroze, I used mostly no$psx & pcsxr (a lot quicker to debug via printf's), only using it now and then to test on hardware. I also use li...

^^^ I agree with Yagotzirck, especially if you don't know C, compilers, linkers, memory map files etc. etc. And it's still a big learning curve! even with the simpler Libgs/Net Yaroze stuff :ugeek: I wrote my Net Yaroze development tips here Saying that, it's a great way to learn console dev, learni...

That's strange. I thought Psy-Q came out in 1994 because it was available for the DTL-H2000 which was a development kit based on the 1992 or 1993 hardware design which pre-dates the launch hardware design (PU-7 and PU-8). I could be very wrong though, but I have never heard of nor seen such an SDK ...

Ha thanks, cool! Bubsy 3D would have been developed from 1994 through to 1996, using something called "PS-X OS". Look it up, it reads like Net Yaroze (libgs with CD stuff, etc)! In Net Yaroze we did have registers info and assembly access to the CPU (R3000.h) but nothing on the GPU nor the...

For me, blender is a huge learning curve and found it frustrating.
I found the old, very old modelers better for 'low poly' ie PSX/DOS models.
And easier to use: misfit3d, fragmotion, milkshape, etc

I used LMMS for midi stuff

Yeah, TIMTOOL is great fun
Simple tool, takes a while to figure out how to use it well tho.. someone should make a game out if tho
Glad you figured it out!

It started out as an interest into Bubsy 3D, but turned to this:
The early Playstation developers didn’t have access to hardware!
TL;DR: It seems very similar to Net Yaroze's LibPS

Any extra info or corrections appreciated.
Cheers
Mike.

Aren't you waiting for GPU to finish each time you call "draw p#"? It looks like you are telling the GPU to draw even if the previous screen (e.g.: player 1) hasn't been fully rendered yet. No wait, it's splitscreen, the different parts of the screen get drawn at the same time.. you're ju...
