Lol! Yeah TyRaNiD, I'm starting to think there is no work around to this and that I am screwed. I did not anticipate this when I started coding so I may have to rethink and redo some of the things I had going (which were working quite well up until now). I'll see if I can try a few things before I c...

Thanks guys. I tried increasing the size of the stack for the kernel thread but it would still crash. To be sure, I even created a separate, simple program that only opens a specified number of files for reading but it would still crash after opening more than 9. Maybe one of you can create somethin...

Hi everyone, This may sound strange to some of you, but I'm writing a game engine where I need to have about 20 to 30 files opened simultaneously for the entire duration of the program. This is for streaming purposes. However, when I try to open more than 9 files using either fopen or sceIoOpen, my ...

Hey guys, I managed to load my vertex and uv data to a vertex buffer object and display something on the screen. However, for what I'm doing, I need to be able to modify the stored data on the fly which I can currently do with regular vertex arrays stored in system memory. Is there a way I can get a...

Ok, I want to restrict the mipmap levels of my textures. For this example, I only want to create 3 levels. Here are the relevant parts of my code. glGenTextures(1, &texture); glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture); glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR); glTexParameteri(...

I finally got my first homebrew demo up and running but it needs some improvement. In it, I created over a thousand characters walking around the screen with simple AI and collision algorithms. Anyway, the demo is running a bit slow and I narrowed the problem down to the rendering code. You see, I a...

Thanks everyone. Honestly, I just wanted to know if something like this was possible but judging from some of the comments here it probably isn't worth doing anyway. I think I'll just stick with what I had going.

Hi, I am well under way in creating my first homebrew demo and I can use some help. I just started learning to program in C a few weeks ago so forgive me if this sounds trivial. Lets say I declare the following: struct example { int number; }; struct example demo[2][3][4]; struct example *ptr; Is th...

Thanks Jim, it worked! I downloaded the ImageMagick unix binary from imagemagick.org and copied all the files in the bin folder to cygwin/bin and this overrode the old 'convert' to the correct one. Strange thing is that ImageMagick was set to install (along with all packages in devel) when I install...

Hi everyone, I'm a professional artist/animator hoping to enter the psp homebrew scene and create some cool 2D games to share with others. I have created simple games in Java and Flash but would like to move onto handhelds and later on for next gen consoles (mainly ps3). I'm just starting out so I'm...
