Gordon Freeman in the flesh. Or rather, in the Playstation 3 port. I took the liberty of relieving you of your PS3 store; most of them were Sony's property. As for the port, I think you’ve earned it. Given the current status of my Quake 3 ports, which I'm feeling satisfied so far (although there's still a lot of stuff that I'd really, really like to implement), my next project was a XASH3D FWGS port for the Playstation 3. Compared to my previous port, I decided to make a thread about its current status, what's left and when the first release will be. Whereas with my previous Q3 ports I would make a thread as soon as I got a playable build. ETA: Early/Mid August depending on how many roadblocks I run into. Was AI used in this project? Yes, AI was used to assist me in coding. All the testing and the debugging sessions were done by me on real hardware following a strict goal-based roadmap. I also got some of the pieces fully working thanks to my previous Quake 3 port. And this brings us back to: Current status: HL1 is working as intended (rendering, menus, loading/saving files, audio, multiplayer, story as well as the tutorial are playable) Opposing Force and Blue Shift are playable. It's gonna use the default Gamepad layout available on Steam Crossplay with other XASH3D FWGS clients is supported TO DO: Polish. Improve controller sensitivity. Screenshots:

So i'm thinking about buying a ps3 demo model from someone that purchased the unit from circuit city when they we're going out of business. It was recently updated to 3.55 in an attempt to get rid of the demo mode by the current owner. this however did not rid the system of demo mode. i have the demo unlock code which takes it out of demo mode but still restricts access to psn, and the code must be entered again every time the unit is powered off. I've read up on a method involving a jailbreak devise and installing cfw which would rid the machine of the demo mode and allow me to connect to psn, as well as not have to enter said code every time i turn it on and essentially turn it into a retail unit. I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with a ps3 demo unit and ridding it of demo mode. I just want to get some insight on the best way to deal with the demo mode issue, whats a fair price for the unit and if anyone knows about backward compatibility and other os with a demo model. if anyone has any insight i would greatly appreciate it. thanks in advance.
