SDL Port not booting

Post by suloku » Fri Sep 05, 2014 12:36 pm

Hello,

There's this SDL written game for windows/linux, Zelda Navi's Quest, and I ported it to PSP. Then I though that porting it to ps3 wouldn't be so difficult even though I've never programmed anything for ps3.

I prepared a makefile, modified the control scheme and changed all relative paths for the files the game uses to a hardcoded path using the game ID specified in the makefile ("/dev_hdd0/game/ZELDANSQ0/").
It compiles with no errors, the package installs fine and the files are at the correct path, but when launching the game it just returns to the XMB.

I've seen some PS3 SDL examples and I don't see what I'm doing wrong, to me it seems I don't need anything more for the game to run. The only thing I can think off is that the game runs at 640x480, but I don't see why that would make it return to xmb. Maybe its my environment, but again, I don't get any compiling errors. Any ideas?

Here's my current source: http://www.mediafire.com/download/ojpbz ... .6_PS3.rar

Thank you very much.

ps: I'd appreciate if someone with a working environment could try compiling and running it.

I'm at 4.55 habbib cobra. I haven't tried eboot resigner, in fact I've never used it. I've read a little and it seems to be for games (resigns eboot with keys of a lower firmware so it can be boot on CFW if I understood well). I don't see how that could help a compiled homebrew with psl1ght, but anyway the most recent one I found claimed to be for 4.46.

Resign your pkg file and then give a feedback

I resigned it with "Hishamage 4.60 PKG Resigner", now I got a black screen, no response for home menu or the PS3 shudown/reset hardware buttons (I had to hard shutdown by holding the power button).
