Community project: HD-compliant version of PS2Reality

teclis · 08-30-2004,01:34 AM

Not to make too much mention of my senseless and stupid earlier blunder, this time I would like to open the board to anyone who would like to assist in the development of a Hard Drive compliant version of everyone's favourite (and only) PS2 avi player.

Now, I'll be up front with you: my knowledge in the ways of Playstation 2 coding is extremely limited...but I will be an active member of this project in any way I can....anything from coding (though my abilities are, again, extremely limited) to information gathering to keeping everyone involved with the project up to date on the latest developments.

I know this proposal sounds a touch shabby, but it is my personal belief this project will ultimately succeed. Why? Because (#1) I happen to know for a fact there are countless others (many with coding talent, I'm sure) who have wanted to see HDD features implemented into PS2Reality Mediaplayer and (#2) because of this common desire, I think we'll all be able to ban together to create a great and awesome player...one that may even surpass any current expectations from the original creators themselves.

Lastly, it's worth noting that while this project is my proposal, this is in no way, shape, or form my project. This is something for the whole (ps2-scene) community to share, and be proud of! No one person's name is going to be stamped on the front of this thing, and I'll do my absolute best to ensure that that does not happen!

Who wants to join me on a journey to create something amazing?

your gonna get nowhere without some source code, and the reality dudes wont give it up for anything except $$$.. another example of why open source development is needed and far superior. Your best chance is to make an entirely new media player. Good luck

I heard from xiaNaix through netmech that there isn't any source code in existence...no, not code unavailable to the public...it doesn't exist....

In any case, I'd still need help in creating a player, and I'd like to keep this still as a community project...

Haha, ok dude - if there is no source code in existence, then how the hell does the media player exist? Did it just drop from the sky? Use a bit of common sense, eh?

And yeah - in order to add HDD support you are either going to need source code, or do something similar to HDLoader to re-direct CD -> HDD.

This will be very hard!!!!

I know what you are going to say: Thanks for the support.

...Perhaps if we could get Netmech or xiaNaix to clarify what they meant?

The source code is not available to the public, there is no need for either Netmech or xiaNaix to clarify anything. And what happened to your other big ''project'' about PS2Reality anyway?
