Source Code and Everything Needed For Compiling

ThatOtherDev aka ThatOtherPerson has provided the source code as well as everything else you will need for compiling. He has also put out a challenge to homebrew devs to see we can get some more original homebrew games back on the scene.

I don't remember by whom but I'm reasonably certain I've been asked for this before and I suspect there is probably a handful of people that would find this useful. So here it is.

I've uploaded a compressed file that contains the (admittedly outdated) compiled copy of PSL1GHT that I've been using (and continue to use) for all of my recent PS3 homebrew. The archive also includes the source code for They Do Not Die 2, We Are Nowhere, The Unmapped Forest, Slime Roll, Sketch Fight, Goodbye World, Don't Get Crushed, Cascade Beneath and Avoidance. Along with the source code is all of the related media.

You can download it here.

How to use it (well running Ubuntu):

Just add the following text at the bottom of your bashrc file.

Code:

## Setup ps3toolchain environment
export PS3DEV=/usr/local/ps3dev
export PATH=$PATH:$PS3DEV/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$PS3DEV/host/ppu/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$PS3DEV/host/spu/bin
## Setup PSL1GHT Environment
export PSL1GHT=$PS3DEV/psl1ght
export PATH=$PATH:$PSL1GHT/host/bin

Then open up the terminal and install the following libraries (some of these probably aren't really necessary but some definitely are).

Code:

sudo apt-get install autoconf automake bison flex texinfo libncurses5-dev gcc g++ make wget libelf-dev
sudo apt-get install python2.6-dev python-dev zlib1g-dev libtool git-core libgmp3-dev libssl-dev pkg-config
sudo apt-get install libcloog-ppl-dev

Extract the contents of the above ps3dev.tgz archive to the /usr/local/ folder.

Then in the terminal just open the directory for one of the projects (such as They Do Not Die 2).

Code:

cd $PS3DEV/MyProjects/projects/TheyDoNotDie2

Finally enter this to compile it (Doing make clean first would probably also be a good idea).

Code:

make pkg

What I would like you to do:

Make something. There is an appalling lack of original games being made in the homebrew community and I implore you to take part in changing this.

Give credit when credit is due. Don't just reskin one of the games or change a couple things and pretend that you have made something new.

This is awesome!

Im just waiting for the ignorant little kiddies to start the : does this let me play 3.60+ pirated shit durr durr durr.

In all seriousness though , i really wish more home brew would be released for the ps3 , it's a power house that no one has really tapped into yet, we still don't have decent emulators for most classic systems still.

There are solutions for playing new games. Go make it happen. Sort out a dual-firmware.

This is awesome. Thank you very much I will definitely be grabbing this and seeing what i can come up with. I read your interview and and it reminded me to come back and grab this. Where is all the love. Once the original jailbreak came out these forums were screaming with people wanting something like this. I cannot believe there is so little comments, I would of expected some more users to be trying there hand at this. Though I have never coded games or anything much that does not involve php so it will be one hell of a learning curve. You never know I may be able to muddle together a pong. lol

Also pretty embarrassing that this is nearly a month old news post and before this only one reply had anything to do with the actual tool set and that was just to say it works. Come on psx-sceners lets get into making some stuff. Bet ya can't (present company excluded thatotherdev)
