Cal3d Demo for PSP

Ginka has released his Cal3d Demo for PSP. This is a PSP port of the Cal3d, a skeletal based 3D character animation library written in C++ in a platform/graphic API-independent way. Ginka has made it possible to view the 3D models on the PSP. Currently he only tested this on a 1.50 PSP, and it worked fine. 2.00+ PSP may be able to run it too, but it's up to you to test it out. Here are some more details from the readme:

Controls:

Analog stick:
  • Up: Zoom in
  • Down: Zoom out
  • Left: Rotate left
  • Right: Rotate right
     
   Left Trigger: Kick
   Right Trigger: Wave
   Left: Go slower
   Right: Go faster
   Up: Increase 'strut walk'
   Down: Decrease 'strut walk'
  
   Triangle: Show skeleton
   Square: Show grid
   Cross: Decrease LOD (Level of Detail)
   Circle: Increase LOD
  
   Select: Hide info display
   Start: Exit demo
  
To-Do:
  • increase performance. 
    • I want to switch to using PSP's native skinning feature.
    • Put vertex/texcoords/colors into native format.
  • Allow switching between characters.
  • Figure out why textured characters are slow ( I think I know why... ).
  • Collisions.
  • Many more items...
Future Plans:

Continue work on full 3D WorldForge client. Current status of other projects I'm working on for the PSP;
  • Cal3d
    • Port working.  Needs more tweaking
  • Atlas-C++
    • Ported and works
  • 3D widget toolkit
    • In progress. Basic window, fonts and (cool new) text input working
  • 3D renderer
    • In progress...

Figure out why textured characters are slow ( I think I know why... ).

cause texture needs to be in VRAM (guess its in normal ram now.)

can you tell it to do things you want it to, like move each body part save it and keep doing it so like I could make the charecter do like the dance vincent does in pulp fiction with uma thermon or the dance napeolen dynimite does.
