Homebrew [Release] Lua Player Plus 3DS (lpp-3ds) - LUA interpreter for 3DS

[0x0wl]

Could someone build lastest commit (I want to use the io.size fix)? I tried to build myself, and I get a bunch of errors, such as: c:/devkitPro/msys/aemstro_as.py file not found (Yes I have devkitpro installed and working with other homebrews, but that file isn't there) also I get: arm-none-eabi-strip not a valid command.

I posted a compile guide earlier in the thread that fixes all these errors. https://gbatemp.net/posts/5633085/

Hello rinnegatamante, this is a programming question. How can I calculate the fps for showing up? I've stuck for days here.

 

[Rinnegatamante]

you can create a Timer and check how much time passes between two ticks for example. Another quick and weird method could be this:

tmr = Timer.new() // Create a new timer
fps = 0 // This will be the framerate var
fps_counter = 0 // Internal var to calculate fps

// Main cycle
while true do

   // Increase internal val by 1
   fps_counter = fps_counter + 1

   // If a second has passed, reset timer and save fps val
   if Timer.getTime(tmr) > 1000 then
     Timer.reset(tmr)
     fps = fps_counter
     fps_counter = 0
   end
end

end

*facepalm* man, I'm feeling stupid. I was trying using getTime in all ways without success. A simple timer give me all I need. Thank you, man. Nice work.

All screenshots you see for my homebrews are taken with takeScreenshot from 3DSX builds.

If I use the elf to build a cia, where should I put the index.lua?

Tried that, but I get a green pixel.

No other place it could go though. Are you sure the exact same script works when using a boot.3dsx?

 

[PabloMK7]

Yep, I'm sure. I'm using rxtools, but I don't think the problem is there...

These files uses ADPCM audiocodec. Theoretically, lpp-3ds support ADPCM files by months but there are different problems in their playback:

1) Streaming will corrupt audio playback.
2) Stereo corrupt audio playback.
3) Currently ADPCM headers for audio reloading are skipped (Cause not jumping them corrupt audio playback).

Why should i create a new file format if lpp-3ds can play without any problems OGG, AIFF and WAV files?

why you have created jpgv?

 

[Rinnegatamante]

why you have created jpgv?

JPGV is a video format, not a music format...
