DEMOTEV is a GameCube demo by GranDFrère.

Quote:

With DEMOTEV, I wanted to associate light and texture, because in fact I knew the light by using vertex and display textures, but I could not combine the two. This is where the VTE: The VTE can combine ( “mix”) color information or not with a texture and / or combine texture with a texture (multitexturing).

It also plays well with the color and alpha of a textured surface with color and alpha of a colored surface. Background: alpha is the degree of transparency or opacity of a color. It can make 16 combinations (Stage) but only a multitexturing 8 textures. But it is enough.

In short, using operators, parameters, type of matrix, sources texture coordinates we do what we want the texture. As with Open GL. This demo is not multitextures and want a reason to use this possibility. I had already made a demo showing a cube with different textures simultaneously, but it was not multitextures as I had announced. I was wrong.

Scrolling is a GameCube demo by GranDFrère.

Quote:

With Scrolling, I had to manually create the characters leaf small squares method “old school”, and noted the coordinates of all vertices. I also made a routine that calculates all the normal averaged for the Light (ie more than normal in a table).

At the beginning it should be a scrolling, but it has become over time an auditor modeling characters. That is why it is a “rotation character”, “transparency” and “display vectors” that shows the normal.

You can also manipulate the camera you see that light is before the character and act from behind it.

Torch has updated Hold Plus, it’s a Battery Saver Plugin for PlayStation Portable.

Changes:

Fixed a problem caused by a faulty Hold switch in some PSPs. This made the CPU remain underclocked even after turning off the Hold switch.

The problem is the Hold switch doesn’t consistently return a pressed state. It sometimes rapidly fluctuates between an Off and On signal. If this fluctuation occurs within one iteration of the main program loop, it causes problems. Its not humanly possible to toggle the Hold switch so fast, but a loose connection can 😛

Steve Corey updated his port of PrBoom to the Nintendo Wii. PrBoom is a cross-platform version of the classic 3D first person shooter Doom from id Software.

Changes:

Thanks to everyone who responded to my request for testers. We’ve verified that this new package works great with the Homebrew Channel, so I’ve updated the zip file and put it out on the Google Code site (it’s still 0.4, since only the packaging changed). Thanks to everyone giving me such detailed info on the issue, I got it fixed much faster than I thought I would.

Powernoid is a Breakout clone by Art.

Release notes:

This is one of the few GAME programs I have written, and by far my favourite. Powernoid V1 was written in less than two days. I always loved a particular Breakout clone that I played on the Amiga CD32, and that is the public Domain game that I found on a magazine cover CD which inspired this PSP Breakout/Arkanoid clone.

The sort of powerups in this game is sort of what I had in mind for “Power Pong”, a game I released way back, but I didn’t really implement any, so it remains an ordinary Pong game with pretty graphics.
