Wanting a few helpers on a PS2 lexicon

zabolyx · #1 07-09-2005, 07:01 AM

I'm wanting to slap together a Word document called the PS2 Noobian Dictionary (kind of a Hackers Dictionary for PS2).

The document will entail the entire PS2 vocab and a few extras, like abbrevations, and common used applications.

This document is to be writting using WORD and then turned into a PDF... with a watermark claiming the PS2-SCENE.ORG as mommy. So that our best friends will enjoy retyping it to use on their site.... MWUHA HA HA HA HA HA.

Looking for a few good men, I mean writters to help with task and anyone that can proof as well as offer suggestions of what to cover...

A site has been setup to work on this project... a forum... If interested please join up (please use the same name as here, to help keep things straight).

I can sure help... I'll help with the terms and maybe some simple instructions (I'm not much of an instruction guy but I'll do what I can). The only thing I can't provide are screen shots as I don't have a PS2 right now so keep that in mind...

Can we also post suggestions in this thread? I can help proof read it if you want; I'm a grammar nazi.

It should definitely cover some basic electronic theory.

Yeah Toma is onboard

A proofreader would be great... since, personally, I really suck at spelling and you could help with the basic electronic theory.

OK... checking back a little early... wanting to know what font is used on this boards header... want to be as close as possible so that no one can doubt....

I think a few branched items like the electronics coverage and things like that could be done.... a little indepth info for certain topics would be great.....

Also should cover PSP, PSX and PS1 topics as well (if we can).

I want enough info that is easy to read and cross reference to the point that we can simply tell a noob wanting to know what the EE, i-link, Independence Exploit, ModChip or Launch Elf is.... to look at the PS Noobian Dictionary.

You can ask one of the admins or maybe look at the page source for the font...

Like I said, I can definatly help with the terms and apps... but I don't know too much besides that (especially in terms of hardmodding [I'm more of a softmod guy])

timberlandman · #7 07-09-2005, 05:53 PM

I can help too. I'm a speel chequeing gooroo.

zabolyx · #8 07-09-2005, 09:52 PM

Great I see some interest.....

Go ahead and throw some ideas insto the mix here.... I need words and terms that everyone thinks should be in the lexicon

yahooadam · #9 07-10-2005, 02:44 AM

ill proof read it if u wont

Not much on the ps2 ness, but i can see a spelling mistake or two (especially if im in a pedantic mood

)

zabolyx · #10 07-11-2005, 06:02 AM

OK... I'm needing some one to generate a list of terms for the PS2 that need covered.

Also needing some one to help build an index to the document. I'll send the template for the page when some one offers...

also needing some one to contribute info for the document (weither typed or fetched from somewhere else). I've started with a few items... working on the word list, contents page, title page, credits, and general layout of doc.

darklegion · #11 07-11-2005, 07:17 AM

Its not hard at all to rip the text out of a pdf without the watermark you know,so I doubt it will stop them

dick_onion53 · #12 07-11-2005, 07:33 AM

When you get a list of terms send me a copy and I'll start defining...

zabolyx · #13 07-11-2005, 07:47 PM

Did not know that... that sucks... oh well... there are other ways of marking it too... I'll do a few and see if we can catch them.... like we do all the time.

Dick_onion.... I have a notebook that I'm filling....

I'm needing some more words though... have maybe 200 words to do... and wanting to have as many as possible.... I'm incuding apps, electronics, PS1, and PS2 terms.

I'm posting the general layout of a page... the words are just random... but I'm wanting a section for each letter and in alphabetical order... This is just a sample.

No need to worry about the font or any thing, as well as the page numbering I'll do that after the section is turned in... also note the PS1 or PS2(version Number, all) that is after the entry like so:

iLink - PS2(v1-v8) <-- tells what system and versions of the system it belongs too
(single line space)
blah blah... ......
.................blah blah blah.
(double line space)
(double line space)
(next entry)

The PS1 is to represent the original PS, because we don't a bunch of noobs thinking that the PSX that sony released last is the older system.

some of the abbreviations will point to the longer counterparts... EE see Emotion Engine, but PSX would need defined as two enties one for PS1 and one as the PS2 media unit... (although at the moment we are only covering the PS1 and PS2).

zabolyx · #18 07-11-2005, 10:32 PM

the appedices will cover several areas...

What are you wanting to write, boule?

And the words you gave me helped me think of more as well ... Updating list

also needing some suggestions on the Appendices.....

Appendix A - Exploit (overview and basic methods of installing)
Appendix B - The Players (major characters in the PS1 and PS2 scene)
Appendix C - Programming (basic overview of various languages and methods)
Appendix D - Basic electronics
Appendix E - Basic modding (case mod starter)
Appendix F -
Appendix G -
Appendix H -

the others are up for grabs... these can cover anything.... you want to write you can have it included.

need more words and more ideas....
