Re: Recompile Yaroze Source

actually I forgot gcc gets compiled twice, so it needs to be compiled in windows, probably using wls windows linux subsystem or cygwin stuff.

neither which I use :/

Re: Yaroze Tutorial in spanish magazine (SuperJuegos)

Thanks for the zip file! I ripped a few from archive and started embedding images it to HTML, which is kinda lame :/ http://netyaroze-europe.com/SuperJuegos/ I want to do it in text, and expand it somehow.. who knows. TMK, That's the only printed magazine/book that actually coded Net Yaroze, that wa...

Re: Recompile Yaroze Source

Might be a stupid question but what would be the steps to get this working natively on windows machine, eg the original yaroze was DJGPP and didnt require a linux/unix shell etc.. is there a way to get it cross compiled to work natively on a windows machine? there is, I've compiled it and used it a...

Re: Configuring C::B for Psy-Q

:cringe:
I used C::B for a while and went back to eclipse (CDT C/C++) via makefile, but whatever you feel best coding in, use that!
Beside, this stuff now is kinda old now, there's been alot of new tools working better then the OG NY DOS compiler or even homebrew stuff :D

Re: Recompile Yaroze Source

Ha cool! Have you used my yarexe by any chance? https://github.com/gwald/Yarexe It's a hack of all the exe's that turn the yaroze's siocon's auto file into a single ps1 exe, which then the emulator ran, with printf debugging.. that was 90% of my workflow and worked pretty well, way faster then hardw...

Re: Yet Another New User!

Hi welcome! Your mentors are smart people! The problem with retro dev, 20+ years later is: 1. Hardware is going to get harder and more expensive to get 2. Experienced people forgetting the tech and less people with the right skills will be interested in learning. Which means, the communities will be...

Apart from rendering static 3D objects, programming in 3D is going to be pretty hard if you don't understand vectors, normals, product, dot products, trig and matrix functions stuff etc... You don't have to know how the matrix maths work tho, just know what to put in and expect ...

Re: Windows 98SE Hardware

I need to build a machine that is actually built with parts from that time. So, is there any advice for that? You can natively load win95/98 on any new machine I believe, I know DOS still works. The hard part is the partitioning, DOS has to be first. re hardware, Look for stuff made 1998 to 2001 (w...

Re: New and eager to learn!

yeah, not sure I would recommend the Net Yaroze route, I was recommending to stick to libGS. Saying that Net Yaroze has the auto/siocons stuff which makes it pretty easy to send exe/data to a real playstation or build a single psx.exe (https://github.com/gwald/Yarexe), which is very fast to build.. ...

Re: New and eager to learn!

Welcome.. You should be fine with just libGS (Graphic System libraries) you wont need anything deeper. LibGS has great 2D features and its pretty quick and easy to use. Which is what the net yaroze uses and I think is a good learning starting point. You'll probably struggle with the toolchain and th...
