Some of my old PS2 stuff

[Raizor]

I've been digging through some of my old PS2 coding stuff and have captured some bits using a PS2 emulator (PCSX2). I don't have a video capture card, so using the emulator is my only option at the moment. Most things work ok, but there are some graphical glitches and slowdown issues sometimes in the emulator.

Anyway, I thought it may interest someone, so I've uploaded them to YouTube for posterity. Here they are in chronological (I think) order:

Cloudy:

Fireballs:

3D Mutha:

Stop Gap:

Christro:

Adventures in Wonderland:

Sixtee Fore:

AHX Musicdisk:

b000p:

These are all from 2003/2004.  All developed using the homebrew PS2 devkit in C (and sometimes a little C++). I have some other bits and pieces floating around on various drives and discs which I'll dig out and add later.

Bloody Amazing! 

[Raizor]

Thanks Hotshot

They were fun to make for sure. I'll see what else I can dig up...

[rain_storm]

Thats truely awesome.

[benny!]

Yeah, some cool intros there. Did not know that you coded on PS2. Well done, mate!

[zawran]

I haven't really seen much stuff done on the PS2. Looks like you were busy back then   Thanks for sharing, it was well worth the time it took watching them

[padman]

Cool stuff indeed! 

[Shockwave]

What a treat!  I think Fireballs is my favourite - they all have that great cracktro vibe!

[ferris]

b000p was certainly the coolest for me. Had a real late 90's DOS demo vibe, which I love These are all well put-together. A fun challenge would be to remake them for pc...with software rendering

[Rbz]

Nice work Raizor, my favorite is also b000p, very nice twister effect.

[Raizor]

Thank you all for the nice feedback

Ferris, I may make something similar for PC, I don't think I'd remake any of them though, except maybe the Musicdisk.

Here are a couple more:

Cool. I wish I could produce graphics of this quality. And code for the PS2.

[Raizor]

Thanks Combatking. I'm not sure I could do it again without some more practice

Raizor!!! These are absolutely great!
I have a PS2 wondering how I could burn and run these on the real thing?

Thanks Clyde

Not sure about burning them and running them from disc as some of them need access to the 'host' file system.  Does you PS2 have a modchip?

The ps2independence exploit was always the preferred way to run these things. It used a modified save-game file on a memory card and a buffer overrun exploit to boot a load application. If you have a chip installed, you can probably run ps2link (a loader app) from disc and then use the ps2 ethernet addon to load the ELF files for a PC (ELF files are the equivilent of EXE files for PS2). There is also a program called Naplink that allows loading via USB from a PC.

Let me know your setup and we'll see what options there are
