GLBasic Game Programming
November 10, 2009 by Charlie
Posted in PC, Programming
I wanted to introduce our users to GLBasic. It is a game programming Basic language, which is extremely easy to use for new programmers. It’s also a great language for more experienced programmers.
GLBasic will compile for Windows, Linux, Mac OSX, iPhone/iPod Touch, Windows Mobile, Windows Dll, GP2X, GP2X-Wiz and more.
GLBasic is fully featured for creating 2D games, and it also contains a complete 3D engine as well, using OpenGL.
GLBasic is updated extremely often by it’s developers.
It’s FAST and easy, which is always a great combination.
Networking is an easy process with GLBasic.
You can make your own online games!
Some of the 2D features are:
Sprites rotating, zooming, and blending,
polygonal sprites, and alpha blending
Some of the 3D features are:
GLSL shaders, real time shadows, Dot3 bump mapping, supports common 3D formats, light mapping, real time lighting, collision detection, and a lot more!
GLBasic is not free, but there is a fully featured trial version. The only downside to the trial is it will limit your gameplay to five minutes, and contains watermarks.
For a full feature list visit HERE
If there is some interest, I may create some tutorials in the future for starting GLBasic.
I plan to migrate evilmana.com away from a “PSP only” site, and GLBasic would be a great place to start!
How To Make A PlatFormer Tutorial by cmbeke

Posted in PSP, Programming
cmbeke has posted a nice tutorial in our forums about making a platformer with a tile engine, using LuaPlayer Euphoria (LPE).
The tile engine itself is made by osgeld.
Here’s a statement from him:
Hopefully this will be the first in a series of tutorials about making a platformer. If you have any questions, comments, or see I am doing something wrong or inefficiently please by all mean post your opinion. This tile engine was made by Osgeld and I take no credit for it in its state now.
You can view the tutorial in the forums HERE
Also, I would like to add that most of the main evilmana tutorials are converted over to the new layout. Snippets and codebase are not. Soon, these will get an update. dan369 has worked on this some already.

Please excuse our site while we go through a remodel. Some areas may not display properly while we are editing our layout.
The tutorials are still available from the same links as before. Soon these will be migrated to new links with the new layout.

5.00m33-6 last of the CFW?
August 28, 2009 by chi-kitory

If you haven’t noticed Dark Alex has yet to crack the official firmware 5.55 fw provided by sony. Which doesn’t really matter unless your a hard core GI Joe fan, which happens to be the only game needing this firmware. but from the looks of things other games coming to US will be needing this fw such as shin megami tensei(persona).
No one has heard of anything from Dark alex or anyone from the m33 team on the usual breaking of fw. Lets hope this changes soon. Maybe he is just waiting for the PSP go to come around or maybe he is done, what ever it is, lets hope something changes.
Which if your running 3.71m33, do not update your PSP with network, it will auto put 5.55m33
