Virtools — a New PSP Game Engine

well maby some homebrew genuis will be able to do it...*cough*Dark_Alax*cough*......well as i said maby some one will hack it for us

I hope he won't. What you suggesting is flat out illegal and can get him into serious trouble.

In short, this is for commercial developemnt. Don't expect it to ever appear for homebrew development unless for some insane and stupid reason the company decides to go against Sony (which is commercial suicide, no other commercial game developer would touch it again due to pressure from Sony) and release it for homebrew use.

well zion seems to have it maybe he can give us more information when he gets on...

[yaustar]

Unless he has a legit copy, he has to consider that Virtools may be able to identify any builds from their own software which puts him in legal trouble. It doesn't help that he publically announced that he downloaded it on his own site forum.

Edit: thinking about it, the officially PSP development SDK should only compile the executable to an ELF which can be packed into a PBP so it *might* be possible to distribute a game via an EBOOT. Don't quote me on that though.

Interesting...Will have to see how this works.

[yaustar]

Not really, due the fact that the cost and the prerequisites to acquire the tool legally is outside most (if not all) home developers reach.

konami online battle chess bollox.
the funny thing is when you think
"chess for psp" i bet the first thing you think of is, i wonder how konami can make that more interesting.
being a fan of chess, i thought the same thing and rented it.
what i then found out was that konami had not taken the logical approach... chess, great game, but how can we make it better? instead, i think the konami meeting went like this:

hmm. chess. great game. how can we make it slower. more irritating. more tedious. reduce the enjoyment. oh, i know... voila. one seriously crap chess game. oops. now its crap no one will buy it. what do us marketing guys do when we have a piece of crap no one will buy? that's right... we give it a crazy long name that makes it sound cool for the kids.

so in the short synopsis you have witnessed the everything that "super battle chess kings of online battle joy joy chocobo" has to offer.

Alright, just wait till it gets hacked/cracked. Yes it's illegal, but if someone were to publish it from any non western country, they'd get away with it. I highly doubt that the company would go after some nerd in the middle of china.

Then quite simply, don't bother with it. It wasn't designed for people like you and is a waste of bandwidth.
