Cubicle Shooter v0.4 (PS3 Techdemo)

ThatOtherPerson has updated Cubicle Shooter for the PS3!

Quote:

Another updated version of Cubicle Shooter.

As an added bonus having this installed will allow the text (including your score and high score) to load and be correctly displayed on screen for Dont Get Crushed v0.1.

Notable changes:
Improved textures for enemies.
Enemies are now animated.
Enemies die when shot.
Enemies are infinitely re-spawning.
There is now a textured and deformable ground (this differs from the destructible walls and is instead more reminiscent of the ground deformation in fracture)
The debug text has been replaced with larger and more legible sprite based text
The rate of fire has been doubled
The maximum number of cuboids that walls can be sub divided into has been doubled
Game saving and loading has once again been updated to reflect the changes

Performance:
The games performance has gotten both better and worse. The load time is significantly longer (this is largely to blame on the textures) and the starting frame rate is lower (the ground layer is mostly to blame for this). But on the upside I have gotten things running more efficiently especially the destructible walls and the frame rate doesn’t take that harsh drop around the 2700 cuboid mark anymore. so you can break apart the walls more now before the frame rate becomes unbearable.

Controls:
Move – Left analog stick
Aim – Right analog stick
Shooter – R1
Jump – X
Save – Select
Load – Start

Here is an updated version of Cubicle Shooter. I’m also providing the source code, as promised, which I will begin doing regularly for all my PS3 stuff. Sorry for the poor quality of the above video. I figure it still communicates what to expect from it better then a still image does.

Notable changes:
Added a wall texture
Added game saving and loading (usb storage device needed)
Removed the floating up and down controls
Added player gravity
Added jumping
Added momentum to the players movement
Added player on wall collision detection
Fixed problems with blast on wall collision detection
Removed the red impact block

Controls:
Move – Left analog stick
Aim – Right analog stick
Shooter – R1
Jump – X
Save – Select
Load – Start

Cubicle Shooter v0.1 (PS3 Techdemo)

ThatOtherPerson strikes again on PS3!

Quote:

Here is a tech demo for a first person shooter I’m working on. Everything in it is now and will continue to be completely destructible. Use the left analog stick the move, right analog stick to aim, R1 to shoot. There is no gravity at the moment but you can use the triangle and X buttons to move up and down. There is also no set objective or challenge at this point. It really is just a pure tech demo. But I think its still pretty cool already. So have some fun digging holes into walls and let me know what you think of it.

PS Jailbreak PS3 Modchip (PS3 misc)

There are good and there are bad things in this world. The PS3 is finally hacked, this might enable real PS3 homebrew or you can just backup your original games, but it might also motivate people to pirate games. Two edged, as usual. PDRoms suggest you to buy games you like anyway. There are people who have to feed their family and earn their money by producing commercial games, please keep this in mind.

My contact person at ModSupplier published a video, seen above. It explains probably all you need to know. The jailbreak is NO FAKE!

Hypervisor-Exploit (PS3 misc)

Geohot has published his Hypervisor-Exploit!

It basically works by quickly allocating and deallocating memory, while glitching the memory bus. This way the Hypervisor thinks some repeatedly allocated memory is deallocated, allowing r/w-access and with some tricks r/w-access to the main htab.
