You need to rip those to MP3/Ogg and copy them + to the same directory as the game datafiles for music to work. + +Q: Game X crashes, or feature Y doesn't work. Can you fix this? +A: Possibly. + Because of the large amount of games ScummVM supports we obviously haven't + played them all start-to-finish on the PSP, so it's possible there + are bugs or issues that we're not aware of. + When you encounter such a bug, please use the "Bug Tracker" you find linked + on the ScummVM website, and mention all relevant info (i.e. that you're + using the PSP version, which ScummVM version it is, if the problem exists + in a recent PC SVN version, a detailed description of the problem, + and if at all possible a nearby savegame), this will make it much easier + for us to reproduce (and hopefully fix) the problem. + + +Building the source code +======================== +To build ScummVM for PSP you need: + +- PSP toolchain (svn co svn://svn.pspdev.org/psp/trunk/psptoolchain) + +- PSPSDK (svn co svn://svn.pspdev.org/psp/trunk/pspsdk) + Note: This usually gets installed by the PSP toolchain, + so you don't have to do it manually. + +- SDL (svn co svn://svn.pspdev.org/psp/trunk/SDL) + +- zlib (svn co svn://svn.pspdev.org/psp/trunk/zlib) + +- libmad(*) (svn co svn://svn.pspdev.org/psp/trunk/libmad) + +- libTremor(*) (svn co svn://svn.pspdev.org/psp/trunk/libTremor) + +(*) = optional + +When you've installed these libraries (read their README.PSP for instructions), +type "make" in the backends/psp directory to build an 1.00 firmware EBOOT.PBP, +or "make kxploit" to build the 1.50/kxploit EBOOT.PBPs + +You can control most of the build process (engines and libraries used) from +the Makefile. + + +Port Authors +============ + +Joost Peters (joostp@scummvm.org) +Paolo Costabel (paoloc@pacbell.net) +Thomas Mayer (tommybear@internode.on.net) + |
