._.
Yes... I got that much.
The various tutorials that mention Netbeans specifically just assume you are on Linux or already have it configured.
What I don't understand is how to configure the Netbeans IDE (I am used to eclipse) to see DevkitARM and Python 3.

Open up Netbeans, go to Tools > Options > C/C++.
There will be a list on the left side, (Mine had Cygwin and Cygwin_4.x).
Click the Add button.
In the dialog that pops up, click the browse button next to Base Directory.
Browse to you devkitpro/devkitarm/bin folder and select Open.
In the Tool collection Family, select "GNU Cygwin"
name your Tool Collection Name whatever you want, I used "devkitARM"
Hit Ok.

Back on the C/C++ options page, your new tool collection should be selected in the list.
On the right hand side, you'll have to manually browse and set the complier/linkers. Mine are set as:

C Compiler: C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\bin\arm-none-eabi-gcc-4.8.2.exe
C++ Compiler: C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\bin\arm-none-eabi-g++.exe
Fortran Compiler:
Assembler: C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\bin\arm-none-eabi-as.exe
Make Command: c:\devkitPro\msys\bin\make.exe
Debugger Command: C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\bin\arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe
QMake Command:
CMake Command:

In the Code Assistance tab, make sure your tool collection is selected then add in the include directories for devkitarm. I set mine up a while ago, so I'm not sure if I took the shotgun approach or what, but I had

C Compiler :
C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\arm-none-eabi\include\c++\4.8.2
C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\lib\gcc\arm-none-eabi\4.8.2\include-fixed
C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\arm-none-eabi\include
C:\devkitPro\libctru\include
 
C++ Compiler:
C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\arm-none-eabi\include\c++\4.8.2
C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\arm-none-eabi\include\c++\4.8.2\arm-none-eabi
C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\arm-none-eabi\include\c++\4.8.2\backward
C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\lib\gcc\arm-none-eabi\4.8.2\include
C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\lib\gcc\arm-none-eabi\4.8.2\include-fixed
C:\devkitPro\devkitARM\include
C:\devkitPro\libctru\include

Again, those may or may not be correct, I think I just went for the shotgun approach.

Then, I went to File > New Project and selected "C/C++ Project with Existing Sources"
I selected my a 3ds project template and let it do it's thing.
This is where I'm stuck.
Make returns the error:

c:/3ds/3dstemp/Makefile:146: *** target pattern contains no '%'.  Stop.

I'm sure there's something I'm missing, but I haven't figured it out yet after hours of googling.
The project will still build from the command line, but code completion is...iffy at best. For some reason it refuses to find to the ctrulib includes.

 

[yodamerlin]

I got the X and Y values the wrong way around (because of the screen being flipped) so if I change the drawPixel code to swap the X and Y, will this fix it.

 

[Rinnegatamante]

So this is what I decided to try. I went down to the bare bones of what I believe I need for the sound. It's just the filesystem read and the CSND functions to play the file. It still freezes, but I only get one error in the terminal, and that's the fact that "ret" is an unused variable.

            pos=pos+4;
        }
        FSFILE_GetSize(fileHandle, &size);
        u8* audiobuf = (u8*)linearAlloc(size-(pos+4));
        FSFILE_Read(fileHandle, &bytesRead, 24, &samplerate, 4);
        FSFILE_Read(fileHandle, &bytesRead, pos+4, audiobuf, size-(pos+4));
    }
    FSFILE_Close(fileHandle);
 
    // Main loop
    while (aptMainLoop())
    {
        gspWaitForVBlank();
        hidScanInput();
 
        // Your code goes here
 
        u32 kDown = hidKeysDown();
        if (kDown & KEY_START)
            break; // break in order to return to hbmenu
 
        //Start wav file
        CSND_initialize(NULL);
        CSND_playsound(0x8, CSND_LOOP_DISABLE, CSND_ENCODING_PCM16, samplerate, (u32*)audiobuf, NULL, size-(pos+4), 2, 0);
   
        // Flush and swap framebuffers
        gfxFlushBuffers();
        gfxSwapBuffers();
    }
    linearFree(audiobuf);
    CSND_shutdown();
    svcCloseHandle(fileHandle);
    // Exit services
    fsExit();
    gfxExit();
    hidExit();
    aptExit();
    srvExit();
    return 0;
}

There is a difference between a warning (which depends on what command you give to your compiler, if you give a -wall -Pedantic for example you get many more warnings then passing only -wall .) and an error (with an error you cannot compile your code.).

//Start wav file
 
        CSND_initialize(NULL);
 
        CSND_playsound(0x8, CSND_LOOP_DISABLE, CSND_ENCODING_PCM16, samplerate, (u32*)audiobuf, NULL, size-(pos+4), 2, 0);

You putted this code in the main cycle. If you try to initialize for a second time without shutdowning first the CSND system, ninjhax will crash. (And playsound also must be used only one time.).

 

[Agent Moose]

Aaaaaand it still freezes. I moved the CSND_Initialized function to the top and did an if statement around the playsound. I'm about to just scratch this idea. (I also feel like I'm annoying you with this, to be honest).

You wav file is in SD Card root? Are you using Cubic Ninja vanilla? (With vanilla i mean you are not starting SSSpwn from Gateway)

 

[Agent Moose]

yep. I've got the canary.wav file right on the root of my SD card, and I am running it through cubic ninja with no gateway. I don't have the money to spend on a flash cart

I just did an update on ctrulib (All I needed to do was just download the zip from smeal's github and replace the old ctrulib folder with the one I got from the zip, correct?) and it still does the same thing (freezes)

 

[Cyan]

Why 3DS has swap X and Y axis?
Is it named X and Y internally in the console? in SDK?

I think the coordinates are managed by the used libraries, here libctru? which is defining the GFX functions, and sending data to registers.
Couldn't the libctru used the "X" in all horizontal references of the registers instead or naming it "X" first, "Y" second?
or is it based on the origin? bottom left is the origin so vertical is considered X?

It's more complicated ?

It's strange that your code freezes :/ Try to take this: http://rinnegatamante.netsons.org/wav_test.rar
Name your wav as "blood.wav" and put it in SD root. When you start lpp according to the script (i used the wav sample from my repo ( https://github.com/Rinnegatamante/lpp-3ds/blob/master/source/samples/wav.lua ) ) your wav have to be opened at hb startup and you can stop it and resume it with B button.
Tell me if it freezes or not.

Someone knows how Gyroscope works with libctru? I tried to print values returned from a simple reading but i get variable values also when i'm not moving the 3DS (the range of the values is between -XX and XXX values.)

Well, there's something not liking me. I tested your code and it froze me. It has to do with the audio though. I accidently put in an .mp3 (I was testing different .wav's to see if that could of been the issue) and it said there was an error since it wasn't a .wav.

So yeah...I just think my 3DS hates homebrew with sound.

just to check you are not missing the last step: you have to delete the old "lib" and "build" directory (or use "make clean") and compile again the sources with the "make" command after copying the new source file.

You have forget, selector move but good works for me...

Can you upload me the wav you're trying to reproduce? (Are you sure the wav is mono?)

after you have called hidInit try
try HIDUSER_EnableGyroscope(); and than hidGyroRead

offtopic: what is you avatar form I thought I remember here

 

[Rinnegatamante]

I done my test as you said but i get variable values every millisecond :/ Has someone tested them?

P.S. It's Gasai Yuno from Mirai Nikki.

no sorry

PS call dumps form 3dmoo (CN) (the grafic is not working but the API calls should be correct)

GetIPCHandles
EnableAccelerometer
the strange thing is it dose not call EnableGyroscope only EnableAccelerometer

 

[Rinnegatamante]

Another question, someone knows how to store a stereo sound on CSND?

EDIT: 3dmoo refuse to works with me, does citra3DS works fine?
