really you only need two things to start psp devving

one is devkitpro www.devkitpro.org

and the other is tortoise cvs (google it)...

[thefanaticgamer]

so that inlcudes everything i need to make games using the c/c++ language?

[MikeDX]

Well yes, but that setup uses msys (mingw) and not cygwin - which I *personally* prefer.

[thefanaticgamer]

do you know the main difference? because it seems that most people have been using cygwin?

[MikeDX]

Couldnt say. I would have thought most people would be using msys/mingw as thats what ships with devkitpro.

[thefanaticgamer]

ok well thanks....

Once you get devkitpro and tortoise svn installed, give me a shout and I'll be happy to help you get going :)
