Unit Converter v0.2 Released *Update* |
Ó
Today, Access_Denied from our forums has released an updated version of his Unit Conversion application for the PSP. This handy little tool was first released a couple of days ago, but since then has undergone a huge makeover. With some nice looking graphics from Twin891 and a whole host of bug fixes, Unit Converter v0.2 has come on in leaps and bounds just two days after the first release, but is in no way perfect. No longer do you get loads of errors when you try to convert something. I successfully converted from Fahrenheit to Celsius with no glitches!
However, you have to remember that this is still quite an early version, and I still ran into a few bugs when testing this today. For some reason the program still thinks that 2 centimeters is equal to 2 millimeters, 3cm to 3mm and so forth. Also, if you go below 0, the readout goes off the screen; and although anything above 1 works, you cannot get it to go back to exactly one. These are nitpicks, and the application still works pretty well on the whole. Expect weight support and more bug fixes for the next version in days to come! Fw 1.5 and 1.0 binary versions are included in the download.

Update: We reported earlier that Access_Denied's Unit Conversion application for the PSP is experiencing some problems with minor bugs. Well Access_Denied is on a mission to make his project one of the better apps around as he come up with a new version that has fixed 5-6 of those bugs. According to him, he also "have added weight support". FW 1.5 and 1.0 binary versions are included in the download below so why not give this one a go?

There should be an option to jump DOWN posts
Who care's that the first and second posts are like that. Get over it.

I don't see any real use for this program yet, with all of the bugs, hopefully the authors will get them ironed out soon.
And it's so funny how Kyle M. gets so excited that he converted Fahrenheit to Celcius. ROTFL
fine stuff..
nice GUI..
keep up the good work! ;)
Don't worry I'm getting all the bugs fixed. I fixed all but one. And I know, there isn't an real use, but I hope to change that in the next few releases. The next release should be out soon.
*****ing joke program
my 5 year old brother can program better than this
nice, your app is awesome,
can you release the source, so i can learn from it.
thanks so much
Your brother must be pretty smart.
@8 You espect us to believe you? Even if he IS that good, that only makes you the moron in your family, you didn't say you can do better rite? so your 5 year old brother can even program better than you, shame on you.
Stupid ungrateful people -.-
Cool app, math homework is going to be easier now.
I respect everyone doing homebrew on the PSP. I am a programmer myself (hate the PSP though) and it is always nice to see new programs. Nevertheless this has to be one of the most useless programs for the PSP ever. And come to think of it, bugs? All this thing does basicly is multiply or divide two numbers. And even a simple GUI like this should have no bugs.
Don't get me wrong, as I said, I respect everyone trying to program for a console. But it seems so silly to release a program, that has no real purpose and as well contains bugs. Again, I cannot confirm those but they seem to be obvious if they are pointed out here in the comments.
You guys don't quite understand. QJ supports almost all homebrew artist, even the ones that are trying to come up. So quit your yapping and contribute something if you're going to say this is useless.
P.S. this program can be done in javascript or flash. Other than that, keep itup.
I agree with Emil. WTF is the point of this? This guy just wants to get premium in the QJ forums. Its ironic how in teh forums FrozenIpaq or Justin something said that a pointless pong game would not be posted to the frontpage, yet this, which is even easier than a pong game would be, IS posted. Pathetic...
this is stupid
no one cares about this useless app
Great program and all, but this is easy enough to do on a calculator.
Way to show support for newer programmers everyone. Some of you act like its ruining your day to have posts like this taking up your precious space on Q.J.Net. Get a life and ***** about something worth *****ing at.
This is a homebrew site that supports all homebrew for the psp. If the program doesn't interest you then don't come to the comments and bash somebodys work that they are spending time on. Have some respect for your peers people.
You know..
With appearing of any kind of homebrew, I remember how big Sony sux with making PSP more secured against any type of un-commercial material..
i think this is a point of view too.. :)
you guys obviously dont know how to program or even understand logic.
it takes talent to even put a 'hello world' in psp.
if you guys who bashed this thread, can create an app that can multiply 1 * 1 in psp.
i'll donate 1$
first 3 people who can react and send me the sourcecode, and eboot, that i can load through gta
get the 1$
the forethought to upload something for the benefit of others then please dont bash it. Totally disrespectful. Just ignore it and concentrate on trying to get yourself noticed by a girl.
well done for the app
23.
are you serious? No one is going to bother doing that for $1. It's a waste of time.
I'm gonna release more sh|tty homebrew in a few weeks..
so haters prepare!
I hope except these *****g0ts, others will welcome my first attempt in the psp dev scene.. :)
What makes you think you can read other people's mind ?
are you nostradamus ?
WHAT NEXT? CALCULATOR HOMEBREW PROGRAM? WOW
Now they can bring there psp to all there drug deals with there psp, now all they need is for PSP to come out with a scale attachment.
The second write-up of this app can only mean it's a slow news day at QJ. Sigh.
We wouldn't have to use unit converters if you bloody Yankees converted to Metric system like most of the world
and you would be speaking german now,
if it werent for the yankees
I mean come on people give this guy some ****ing respect instead of just bashing, i mean , you people couldnt code your way out of a wet paper bag, i cant either but i mean COME ON leave this guy alone, i am going to download this app, i dont care if theres bugs, F*** as long as it converts wtf do you care. if you have nothing good to say then suck a nut off you boyfriend and go back to bed .
I think I wasn't able to deliver my message.
I know that there are a lot of easier platforms to program for and congratulations on mastering the PSP. But if I have the knowledge and skills to do something on the PSP then I guess I would be able to think of something more useful than this? It is nice to see yet another person programming for the PSP but seriously, it takes more than that. There is so much going on in the homebrewing scene that "just being able to" doesn't do it anymore.
to all the bashers
you just dont know the importance of conversions.
coz you dont know its application
it takes a good mind to appreciate good things
and it takes a whiner to whine about things they dont understand.
take a big poo and put it inside a chocolate bar package.. it'll still taste like *****...
Chances are, the places where people are going to need a conversion, they're not just going to go whip out a psp and start up the program
nearly every cell phone nowadays can do simple conversions a lot better than this program.
