Alright people, halo 2d has been coming along very slowly because of the constant errors in lua player .20. Well, i just tried .16 and i am suddenly able to do so much more. So i may be able to get a new release out very soon! NOTE: never use .20.

.20 is certainly different. It's not bad, and has A LOT of new features, and it's actually pure LUA 5.1. But the bad part is that half the stuff doesn't run. I guess you could sit there and figure out the features, but I am also sticking with .16

Use version .17dk
Its the same as .16 but extra functions as below

New Functions:
---------------
nil System.Quit()
--exits Lua Player back to the psp browser
nil System.initUMD()
--activates UMD and mounts to disc0:
bool System.isUmdInserted()
--returns true if UMD is inserted
nil System.setCpuSpeedHigh()
--sets CPU clock to 333mhz
nil System.setCpuSpeedMed()
--sets CPU clock to 266mhz
nil System.setCpuSpeedReg()
--sets CPU clock to 222mhz

I cant go above .14 simply due to the lack of an updated luaplayer for Windows :(

What exactly makes .20 soo bad?

Well, lua isnt the best language, but at least newbie can learn it fast and get to actual scripting. Took me two hours:D

Yeah, lua is simple. You can even edit the scripts right on the psp with text editors. It works and it gets the job done.
