Hi Guys,

Anyone know what sort of access we have to the PS3's audio hardware from linux?
Is it one of the things they have not given us access to as developers, or is is crippled in some way?

Cheers,
Tony

Check out SPU.TXT at http://psx.rules.org/psxrul2.shtml
It should help explain some of the registers...

... but if you look at shogun's original post, he's after technical info about spu2, not libsd :-)

Hi Ivella, // Somehow I always end up writing long freaking essays... // So sorry for such a long answer to such a simple question/comment. // I am writing this at work :-) When I started thinking about writing a 3d lib for the PS2, Mesa and the newly opened SGI reference implementation were the fir...

@shogun: i remember from a LONG time ago I came across a ps1 SPU library with nice code and a technical doc. A bit of googling and I found this: http://www.geocities.com/james7780/PSX/psxprog.html I'm pretty sure it's the same lib that I remember, but can't see the doc in there. It should be easy to...

A bit old, but I just came across it...

Anyone know if it's real or fake?

hi pdc...That's some great advice from the guys there. I'd also recommend checking out http://gamedev.meetup.com . Try find a group near where you live, and ask them your questions over a beer or two.

@modman & mharris: Thanks guys. Exactly what I was after. Modman, thanks for the sample Makefile.

@J.F: I could never use something called CUTE! :) Vim all the way!!

Gorim, I prefer "vi" + "make" too. So, do you guys know of any online tutorials for building MacOS apps using "make" (I don't mean just simple console apps)? I'm just starting to tinker with Carbon and Cocoa using Xcode...but can't seem to find any "Export Makefile...

Did you guys work out what the problem with this was?
I think I remember having similar problems around 2 years ago and came up with a solution :)
I'd need to see exactly how all your globals are declared.

hi p0ison,
I think that any project is worth doing if you're doing it for the right reasons. So maybe tell us: what you're thinking of doing; why you're doing it; what you hope to get out of it for yourself; how it will be used and by who...and then we'll flame^H^H^H^H^H tell you what we think.

wow...3 years since i actually wrote some code :)
maybe it's time do start again...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PS2DEV.ORG !

Wish I had time to do a 3D+VU tutorial (had plans for tuts 3a to 3d).
Have a look at the DreamGL source code for how to draw a textured polygon. It's VERY easy.
