Can you give me a link?

IRC channel #3dsdev is what you want..

There's at least two #3dsdev channels, one on Freenode and one on Efnet, both get about an equal share of activity, though the freenode one seems more frequently on topic.

Of course I meant efnet.

No offense, but I really don't have time to hang out in IRC.

Either way, this is what I am after: http://pastebin.com/PRTJhwiB (pretty much GL compliance as far as possible)
Their goal may be the same or different.

You welcome ( :

I just edited my previous post while you where replying to explain why.

edit:

Also, I don't have access (I never validated my account when they blocked them) and I'm always afraid of doing something wrong or I shouldn't have done when it's not my place.


Edit2:
Of course, if my work is fine, feel free to copy/paste/move it to 3dbrew. it will be a better place for everyone.
and use the proper header template on 3dbrew.

Oh, now it makes sense

Besides irc, SB has set up a dev forum, something like 4dsdev.org (can't check, on my phone, but yes 4 not 3).

 

[-pm-]

is this for 2d or 3d?

This one is for (slowish) 2D. BUT you can use it to draw 2D in 3D Mode (as you can use both framebuffers separately).
Anyway, better only use it for user interfaces and everything else not requiring blast processing.

So a weird question but does anyone know why we cant access the home menu whilst using ninjhax I mean I've seen in the code for a couple homebrews functions to return to the home menu or when the screen closes. do we not have access to those commands?

e.g. no, but probably because nobody really tried so far

Does anyone know how to create a simple Hello World for ninjhax yet? I can't seem to figure it out, as ctrulib doesn't exactly have extensive documentation yet...

Hi all,

I don't know if I'm the only one in this case but I find it really hard to read and try to understand ctrulib's API, mostly because it's almost not commented nor documented.

I'm trying to understand and document all I can find in the source code but many things remain mysterious

https://github.com/xem/3DShomebrew/blob/gh-pages/documentation.md

If someone could (at least) give us a hint about what these things mean, it would be nice

- AC (related to wifi?)
- APT (related to applet? what is an applet?)
- CFGNOR (related to flash? NAND maybe?)
- CFGU (related to the console's model (3DS/2DS/N3DS)?)
- GSP (related to screen capture?)
- GX (???)
- HTTPC (http requests?)
- IRRST (infrared? NFC?)
- MVD (movie ?)
- NS (???)
- PM (???)
- PTM (???)
- Srv (services? what kind of services?)

3dbrew should document pretty much all the research behind ctrulib, AFAIK.

indeed, everything is on 3Dbrew.

yeah, documentation is certainly lacking. however, ctrulib is bundled with a few well-commented examples such as the sdmc example, which should be a good way to get you started with framebuffer rendering : https://github.com/smealum/ctrulib/blob/master/examples/sdmc/source/main.c

After nearly 24 hours in development, hopefully it will be worth the bloat added feature set.

This helped me get a meaningful value from the 3d slider, thanks!

Well, ctrulib's GPU example does that as well, but I'm glad to have helped

 

[hippy dave]

Oh I hadn't actually looked at that, because I'm not doing any polygons yet, just wanted it for layered 2d

Dude, I love you
Will be using this in my next project

So I just started homebrew development today and I've come across some interesting quirks which have been driving me insane for the last few hours debugging. For some reason, one way or another, I cannot declare global variables past a certain point (or alter their values after I manage to get them "set in") otherwise it will crash to the home menu. Are there any special ways I should be handling global variables, or should I just avoid them, period?

EDIT: It seems this is just an issue with netloader itself, which I used during debugging because it's very fast at transferring. I'll probably throw something up on the homebrew launcher Github to see if we can get some checksums or MD5's or something so that we can verify the file we recieved is actually proper.
