I wasn't able to look at the intrafont thing... can you post a link or somethinf for the wrapper lib? The intraFont archive (link provided above) contains 2 samples - just study them. (Hint: intraFont uses a lot of stuff from pgeFont and its usage is very similar. And remember: intraFont does NOT r...

Why not use an existing and proven solution: pgeFont by InsertWittyName does it nicely and you don't have to worry about the details (get it e.g. from here ). The source code is included, so you could also learn from that. BTW: If you want to display text using the PSP's internal fonts use intraFont...

Hi, I'm using the htmlviewer (from the pspsdk sample dir) and hook some sceIO-functions to intercept file-queries to serve websites to it (the goal is a simple offline wiki-reader). However, I seem to have problems in the kernel module with allocating memory from the user mode memory block (kernel m...

Good idea, I'll look into hooking the sceIoOpen function.

Thanks Torch!

Hi, I'm launching the embedded browser from homebrew (sceUtilityHtmlViewer*) displaying a local file. I'd like to detect when the user clicks on a link and retrieve the new url. Is there a field where the current url is stored? Can anybody point me in the right direction? Or: how would you go about ...

Hi, im creating a graphic library for the XMB. I want to use IntraFont, but it uses too much RAM, so I think it's possible to dump the memory and retrieve the adress of the already loaded font by XMB. But how ? Anyone know the "real" PGFHeader structure used by XMB ? intraFont was created...

I read the Game Title from PARAM.SFO, which is in UTF-8. I need to convert it into Unicode. Please note that I deal with multi-byte characters in game title (Chinese/Japanese etc.) Please help me what are the library functions available to do this conversion. UTF-8 to unicode conversion is simple (...

Yes, I've seen this function, ( intraFontMeasure* ) but if I try to measure a string that contains special characters ( like 'è' or 'à' ) I've the lenght of he string form the first char to the firs special char! 'è' and 'à' are not part of the standard ascii table (0x8A and 0x85), but part of the ...

Next I doesn't have a monospaced font, intraFont has not a constant width, so... Yes, it does (but it's ugly). Study the sample provided with intraFont. The 4th parameter of intraFontSetStyle lets you set the monospace-width, e.g. to 12 pixels: intraFontSetStyle(ltn[8], 1.0f...

Moonlight, really cool! I'm in the middle of writing the intraGUI library (reading and decrypting rcos, loading gims and displaying dialogs with the PSP look-and-feel) and boom: everything's here! Out of curiosity: is the font displaying that much of a pain that you use intraFont? Again, this is a l...

@Crux Shouldn't your output contain the words "noteTime:" and "noteButton:"? Did it really print 3 digits after the decimal point (0.000), even though you specified 1 digit? Anyway, if atof conversion fails it returns 0.0. Thus I would check the input strings and make sure there ...

intraFont 0.22 is out, it has a couple of fixes and optimizations and two new features: 1. S-JIS string parsing for developers using Japanese 2. ASCII characters caching (for those who need only the standard character set, but want to save on memory and loadtime) More details in the readme. Cheers,...

A cachewriteback at the proper position might solve that issue. Not sure yet where that might be. EDIT: On another note, it might be (seeing how only a few out of that lot of text drawn are messed up) that the artifacts are caused by hitting the font texture 'wrap' boundary (unless you use CACHEALL...

Well, I thought about that point too and it's only an issue when having to rasterize whole strings - in which case the easy solution would be rasterizing all shadows first, then the glyphs. Not really complicated :) Sorry, I don't get it - maybe it's because of the word "rasterizing". At ...

Only problem I'm thinking about atm is how to properly handle glyph shadows. Either I'm providing a functionality to choose whether to grab the glyph OR the shadow image, then render them both using GU (as done in intraFont), or I write some software code that mixes them both together into one glyp...

Should pspFont library be low-level and only provide the ability to render the glyphs or strings into an image buffer (no dependency on sceGu) or have an inbuilt back-end for the rasterization too (like intraFont currently does)? Just an idea if you're heading towards the first approach: freetype (...

There seems to be another issues relating to caching when drawing lots of text. I get a lot of 'noise' as Daedalus's UI is rendering lots of text. Just for narrowing down the cause: have you tried INTRAFONT_CACHE_ALL or INTRAFONT_CACHE_LARGE when loading the fonts with intraFontLoad? The former fin...

It's definitely fine mixing indexed and non-indexed textures - check out the pspsdk samples. FWIW Daedalus quite happily mixes a number of different texture formats. I just call sceGuTextMode and sceGuTexImage to install each texture. Thanks for the info. A small note on the bug you reported earlie...

What am I missing? Can I not mix indexed and non-indexed textures? That's my first guess, too. BUT, I'm by no means a GU-expert: the intraFont rendering stuff is pretty much identical to that of pgeFont. So you shouldn't rely on my opinion, but hopefully get a reply from someone who knows/wrote thi...

I released version 0.21 of intraFont which fixes the bugs discovered by StrmnNrmn (possible graphical glitches, function could return a wrong value). You can download it from http://www.psp-programming.com/benhur For those interested in the binary format of PGF files: at the same place you'll find a...

the samples work fine on fw 1.50 but will crash at 84% on 3.52 M33 under booth kernels. maybe its caused by some mods. will try it on a clean system again asap. Since my PSP is a 3.52 M33-2, I would assume it's a moded font that causes the problem. ttf2pgf was written with little knowledge of the p...

There is a bug in the call to sceGuDrawArray though. It's passing in twice as many verts as it should do for GU_SPRITES: sceGuDrawArray&#40;GU_SPRITES, GU_TEXTURE_32BITF|GU_COLOR_8888|GU_VERTEX_32BITF|GU_TRANSFORM_2D, &#40;n_glyphs+n_sglyphs&#41;<<2, 0, v&#41;; It should be: sceGuDr...

I don't have insight into firmware/hardware functionality, but know of this thread:

Hope it helps, BenHur

Here's a simple solution to use (all of) the genuine PSP fonts: http://www.psp-programming.com/benhur/intraFont_0.2.png It features the stuff you see above plus: variable size glyph cache, pre-caching, fast speed (as little as 35ms initial loadtime per font; up to 100,000 chars/sec), low memory requ...

That looks nice, hope you release it soon :) Here it is: intraFont - version 0.1 http://rapidshare.com/files/69530117/intraFont_0.1.zip.html It's still in an early stage (not everything implemented and probably a few bugs), but it works. The archive contains samples for GU and graphics.h - just loo...

Nice.. But How can we verify the authenticity, my eyes hint at P.S. :(? [seeing it's a publically available font] Sorry, I don't understand (my first language isn't Enlish): - what authenticity? what's a P.S. ? - do you mean the PSPs internal font is publically available? I thought some japanese co...

Hi plebihan, I'm just about to finish a little library (called intraFont) which let's you use the PSPs internal fonts: http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/3129/scrshottg7.png As you can see it can also render japanese characters (these are random, I do not know what they mean!). Before I finalize it ...

I'm not aware of a program capable of handling pgf files. The file format is known good enough to generate pgf files (thanks to Skylark and Freeplay), but not to read generic pgf files. I did some more research (sorry for the long post, skip it if you're not interested in the pgf file format): ****p...
