Hex File Collection For Various Boards

[Yngwiedis]

Thanks, guys!

Oh, and now I'm confused: When googling, all the news sites reported it as Waninkoko's 3.01/3.10/3.15 payload but only linked to PSGrooPIC 1.6 and not the payload source itself. Now it looks like it was KaKaRoTo's work all along? Why didn't they just say so?! All the news about PL3 w/ retail PKG support don't even mention FW under 3.41, so I never made the connection to look into PL3. And now I see jevinskie has already posted PSGroove files... nice. No mention of ATmega32U2 though. I hope I can figure out how to get it on Udip.

Find the whole source of psgroove for 3.15 firmware and i will try to make it for you.

Just grab it from the github page, when compiling it you have to put in your firmware version in (I think) config.h and check the descriptor for bm patch (0x78, 0x78, 0x78, 0x78). If the 4 0x78 are not there, it's patched already.

It looks like I'll have to install Linux to do that because it needs to be compiled from a Git repository but I am wiling to do that and figure it out if need be. Thanks! I'll post back with the URL to jevinskie's github source page [EDIT: http://github.com/jevinskie/psgroove.git ]. If you can't compile it, let me me know so I can get to work setting up a Linux system for doing that. Thanks!

I just starting the compile procedure of this thing but i always receive errors, even without any edits.
Can you help so we can have udip hex files for every supported firmware ?
I need to help CZroe also...

@Yngwiedis,
Had a quick look at this and to be honest, there is a lot more to it than a simple compile that you and I are used to as this cannot compile in WinAVR.
I can't get it compile correctly in msys either (for compiling homebrew packages etc.)

If you do want to go ahead and compile this for CZRoe and others, then get hold of a copy of evilsperms virtualbox package (you will have to google it or search the forums for links), set that up as it all the needed files to compile these (and also includes the sdk).

The thread you linked to earlier would be the best place to ask questions regarding the setup and any compiling errors you may run in to. Also, from what I have been reading on the thread you linked to, it doesn't seem to be 100% compatible as yet but it is getting there quickly.

A lot more stuff is being added to the Kakaroto PL3 stuff as this will soon be the standard on which everything will be based so I suppose at some point I am going to have to learn it if I want to continue compiling stuff but until then I will leave it alone.

@CZRoe,
Have you tried any of the pre-compiled hex available in the thread that Yngwiedis linked you to?

No disrespect to you but I will not spend time figuring it out if I am not going to use it. Should the need arise later when I do need to, well that will be different and once I do know what I am doing then I will gladly help.

Do you use Linux on your PS3 at all? If not, then update to 3.41 (the safe version is available somewhere on here) and either me or Yngwiedis can easily do you a hex.

The best people to speak to would be evilsperm or illness as they seem to know quite a bit about this.

Good luck to both of you and I hope you do get it sorted as you never know, I may be asking you to help me set it some day!

Sorry once again for not being able to help you with this but I am still learning all this myself.

Cheers,
JonahUK.

This what i understand from some topics.
PL3 need compile first and then you compile the PSGroove.

PL3 cant compiled with anything in windows.
You need linux for this.

So CZroe like Jonah said... You really need the 3.15 firmware or you can update to 3.41 ?

[mick711]

If a men have a PS3 with 3.15 it's not for fun i use my PS3 for OpenOffice MAME Amiga emulator ........ that on 3.41 it's not possible .

I cant play with F1 2010 but not a problem i test Blur and G25 not working so why Update ? No new car game can played with G25

And i use Linux if i would like to update to 3.41 there have a lot of time that the update run

So i think it's a big problem for PS3 3.15 user because a lot of people whas on 3.41 and for correct issue i don't know who

With a PIC18F2455 with PSGroovePIC 1.6d i cant make a good backup with Open Manager or Other my G25 don't work with Grid or Shift .

So i don't know if a day anybody can make correction but it's necessary for 3.15 user or maybe can put OtherOS on 3.41 it's the best issue

Thanks if anybody can make for PIC so i go to sleep its 1h00

@CZroe/Yngwiedis

I've had another look at this and it *doesn't* look as hard as I first thought.
As I already have the SDK installed (msys, mingw etc.), I just needed to get git working (which I now have done). I have managed to at least get it to compile..

Anyway, here is a test hex for 3.15 for udip ONLY.

I don't know which payload this is and whether backups work but its a start

CZroe, please test and report back.

Cheers,
JonahUK.

Follow this guide for setting up the SDK:
PS3 SDK Setup...

You will need to find the sdk yourself though.

Once you have everything working (try a test compile of a sample in the sdk), you will need to download and install msysGit from here msysgit - Project Hosting on Google Code

This will install git for use in msys but it ADDS another msys (haven't sorted that bit yet but it installs in the same folder) so you use one version of msys for the git (c:/msys/msysgit/msys.bat), and the normal version of msys (should be an icon on your desktop) for the compiling.

So, do all the git parts first and then copy the psgroove folder from msysgit folder above to the "Cell" (from the SDK setup) folder and then use the normal msys to compile (you have to make changes to the makefile in PL3 like so:-

PPU_CC = c:/usr/local/Cell/host-win32/ppu/bin/ppu-lv2-gcc
PPU_OBJCOPY = c:/usr/local/Cell/host-win32/ppu/bin/ppu-lv2-objcopy

Set the firmware, MCU, Board and Frequency in the makefile and you should be good to go!

That's what I did to get the Jevinskie to compile for 3.15

I see "install packages," so it works! Thanks, guys.

FWIW, the LEDs stay off until just before the XMB loads and then one LED lights red.
