Check my post, specifically the 2 code boxes. Notice whats different about them. Yeah, it helps to get the function name correct

BlackBurd, your's doesn't work too. Compiles but screen stays black:

It does work.
You need the vlf library prx's for it to display.


The only problem is that it wont display the lateral menu just the date time and wave

[malliet]

Hahahahaha, I meant my problem with my menu:P You posted one for me on the previous page
but I meant that one didn't work XD

[BlackBurd]

Oooh i just changed what aura said was wrong with it.

It actually worked on my psp.

[malliet]

The menu works now, Davee helped me out

I have another question again. I have a PRX Plugin now that needs to play MP3 sounds.
It compiles perfect but when I enable it in Recovery Menu and start my PSP the
screen stays black and my PSP turns off.

[Auraomega]

Just taking one look at your code and I can tell you the problem:

PSP_HEAP_SIZE_KB(20480); allocates all free user memory. I know for a fact that the XMB actually allocates directly to the user memory so if you've allocated it elsewhere then the XMB won't load.

There may be other issues but I've not looked at the code enough to see, I'll update if I find anything else blindly obvious.

-Aura

EDIT:

Another thing, you've selected kernel mode (0x1000) and allocated from user memory, I'm not certain but I don't think thats either possible nor a good idea.

[BlackBurd]

any body know anything about vlf library.

i still need help with the lateral menu.
mo one else seems to know how to do it and im very sure i didnt make a typo because it complies.

[slasher101]

my ones always compile but it never shows anything on screen either :Argh:

~!SlasheR!~!

[BlackBurd]

my ones always compile but it never shows anything on screen either :Argh:

~!SlasheR!~!

you actually have to build the prx.

If you cant get trickbrick v5 and delete the eboot then put yours in and see if it runs.

[slasher101]

tried dont work

my computers acting up atm tho so... :Argh::Argh::Argh:

Hi

I'm having troubles using FontLoader. I tried to include it in my project but since it is a c++ project I had to rename fontloader.c to fontloader.cpp. Now when I try to compile he tells me

fontloader.cpp (83) : multiple definition of `ft_library'
main.cpp (30) : first defined here

but line 83 is just

	u32* fbLine = framebuffer + xofs + yofs * lineSize;
	for (y = 0; y < bitmap->rows; y++) {  // Line 83
		u8* column = line;

and there's no ft_library used in my main.cpp at all! In fact 'ft_library' is only used 3 times in the whole project, and only in fontloader.h:

FT_Library  ft_library;

and fontloader.cpp:

        initError = FT_Init_FreeType( &ft_library ); // line 26
        // [...]
	int error = FT_New_Memory_Face(ft_library, fontData, filesize, 0, &font->face); // line 48

and there's only 1 definition. All I did was change the filename to .cpp.


PS: Are there any other libraries for displaying fonts than fontloader? I was told pgeFont is pretty good and fast and stuff, but it doesn't work with Psilocybeing's graphic library on which the rest of the project is heavily built on already.

[yaustar]

FT_Library  ft_library;

This is in a header file? If so, change it to:

extern FT_Library  ft_library;

and add

FT_Library  ft_library;

To the top after the includes in FontLibrary.cpp.

[Lukeson]

It compiles and works! Thanks a lot yaustar! :)

[BlackBurd]

Okay i got my men working but now im having problems with audio playback.

Is there an audio library that is compatible with dax's vlf library.

[slasher101]

still no luck with the vlf library, could someone please answer my question on the next page?

[Xsjado7]

How do I allocate memory to the first dimension of an array?

Something like

char *array[256];
array = ?

?

[Archaemic]

This only works in initialization, but you can do this:

char hex[16] = { '0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F' };

If there are entries absent, they are set to zero.

[Insert_Witty_Name]

How do I allocate memory to the first dimension of an array?

Something like

char *array[256];
array = ?

?

That's an array of pointers, the first entry being at array[0].

Just do array[0] = malloc(...);

[Netaro]

So well, another one of my endless troubles.

So, i'm toying with samples in pspsdk samples.

The clut sample in gu folder is quite interesting, but i have to get it working with Oslib library at once.
So now, with no guessing what i'm doing i just copy&pasted the sample, removed what was unneded (guessing) and put in with oslib.
When compiling to check whenever it works, i have that error -

main.cpp:(.text+0x1dc): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_GPREL16 against `osl_quit'
main.cpp:(.text+0x1e8): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_GPREL16 against `osl_skip'
main.cpp:(.text+0x22c): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_GPREL16 against `osl_frameskip'
main.cpp:(.text+0x230): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_GPREL16 against `osl_maxFrameskip'
main.cpp:(.text+0x238): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_GPREL16 against `osl_vsyncEnabled'
main.cpp:(.text+0x23c): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_GPREL16 against `osl_quit' 

And now, i have no idea, i'm literraly at dark now. So, any help appreciated.
Source in the attachement.
Also, if somebody was kind enough to help me make it use only Oslib functions then i would be very grateful.

drop oslib, trying to use the oslib and direct GU clut is not going to work like you want, trust me, if your going to use the clut than simple drop oslib competly and begin learning the gu, also the CLUT is damn amazing, no worry of my rendering being an issue on my end=-), but like i said competly drop oslib if you plan to use CLUT=-)

Too bad, but i have to use oslib. I'm just making a game, and clut will be a background on some maps, so i have to use them both at once, and my pspsdk knowledge isn't good enough to drop oslib, let alone do what i want
So, the question is - direct GU drawing with oslib with no conflicts. How?

I provide my own callbacks.

Note that I first tried to write the benchmarks from oslib, but the text & bg were white, I don't know why...

Error:

No idea what is going on, its not exclusive to PBPDepack either, I've tried a couple of modules and exports, all giving the same problem that its undefined. Anyone know whats going on here?

if you want to know, I'm using oslibmod by sakya, and I'm initializing it like this:

    oslInitAudioME(OSL_FMT_MP3);
    scePowerSetClockFrequency(333, 333, 166);
    oslInit(OSL_IF_USEOWNCALLBACKS);
    oslInitGfx(OSL_PF_8888, true);        
    oslSetDithering(false);
    oslSetFrameskip(1);
    oslSetMaxFrameskip(3);
    oslSetTextColor(RGBA(255,255,255,255));
    oslSetBkColor(RGBA(0,0,0,0)); 

I provide my own callbacks.

Note that I first tried to write the benchmarks from oslib, but the text & bg were white, I don't know why...

u do realize that gives you no aid in oslib drawing, but is drawing with the gu and oslib which is rly stupid

[Auraomega]

Quoting THAT much of a post, it would have been nice if you said something constructive rather than "is rly stupid"... Why is it stupid? What can he do to achieve the same thing (ease of coding with clut)? Your post is just as pointless as this one.

Actually, my post isn't pointless because I'm gonna ask a question. Isn't OSLib just a bunch of functions working with the GU? So how is using the GU with the GU dumb?

[slicer4ever]

no, it's not that, which i meant, while yes oslib uses the GU, it's the way he used it their, they wish to take advantage of the CLUT with oslib, and AFAIK oslib doesn't take advantage of a CLUT, and their's no way to change that, oslib's internal functions take care of handling an image, and displaying it, which makes it not possible(to my knowledge) to be able to use a CLUT with oslib, the only other option is to get oslib's source, and include CLUT handling into oslib, than re-compile oslib with CLUT capabilitie's internally, otherwise it's just one huge big PITA to try and use oslib, with native gu commands, which at that point, your better off using the GU than cluttering up your code with a bunch of oslib calls as well, which is why, it's rly stupid PERIOD.

secondly, i also question if they understand what the CLUT is, copy and pasting code isn't going to help like their doing

edit: and lastly, my post wasn't pointless, do you only take the most negative thing in a post, and immediately think a post is meaningless, when that's said, perhaps you forgot the first part:

Netaro wants to include the clut code into his project, which uses oslib. my post just shows him how to integrate it, how is that stupid?

Isn't OSLib just a bunch of functions working with the GU?

Yep, the graphical part is using the GU, I basically just had to remove all the initialization instructions because it's already done by oslib + subsituing some functions...

Edit: beaten by Slicer :)
You have a point Slicer, but I think what Netaro wants is the pretty effect, nothing more.

I took a look on wikipedia before trying the code... it's helping having a nice background effect, and knowing how to use the GU with oslib, to sometimes do things oslib doesn't allow by itself.
