Various PSP 'scene' websites are jumping up and down with joy over the acquisition of a minor rehash of some very very old PSIX 'sources'. As with the revolutionary 'firmware 2.0 hack' don't get too attached to hilarious hype over incredibly little. The current and ever present 'main developers' of PSIX has given us some sweeeeeeeeet new information and let's just say just because they 'dropped' it, doesn't mean that they aren't currently making something better! Here is what OUR beloved Naoneo from OUR MaxConsole Forums had to say earlier -
firstly.
"Homebrew loads a little better now" - the sources we released from the early psix development, contained only desktop rendering, icon placement, movement and naming, there was no code released for launching.
Secondly.
If your basing your work off the sources we distro'd, then you should give up right now, as it writes directly to the framebuffer, which is the slowest method and lest effective.
Third and final comment.
Just because we drop a project, DOES NOT mean we arent making a replacement for it. I sinceerly hope your not just tacking addons on to the source on ps2dev, its old, outdated and defunct, the TGA hack we were using to display the icons doesnt even work with the newest SDK build.
Basically the <B>OLD</b> 'sources' that were released are useless and are not the foundations for any great PSP developments.
Stay tuned for an upside down pyramid of updates coming soon on the new PSI project, which will quite simply erect a huge pyramid for the PSP scene in general! This new PREMIUM project is so hot, it will make you thirst for more ;)
On this note I'd like to let you all know that the olympic MaxConsole pursuit has begun! Now's a chance to win yourself a Gold medal in our PREMIUM contest, all you have to do is let us know which site we're specifically refering to in the above update and you could win yourself a FREE premium membership to MaxConsole for LIFE!
