Flamez demo for PSP

Posted May 5, 2006 at 8:50PM EST by QJ Staff

Cogboy emailed us this hot info: Fanjita ported an old demo he had laying around, which simulates flames and is titled... Flamez.  The demo looks like the picture above, and is complete with both 1.0 (eLoader) eboots and 1.50 eboot formats. If you're looking for a way to play with fire without getting burned (or arrested for arson), you can download Flamez right here.

I coded a very simmilar looking implementation of this well known algorithm in QBASIC about 10 years ago. What is this doing on the front page of a blog about PSPs?

Is there any way to make somthing like this, or other graphix, to be veiwed while listening to music? Something like windows media player? I think that would be so sweet. I'm no programmer, but it seems that something like that would be pretty easy to make.



Just a suggestion that I'd love to see.

this is great isnt it? all the power of the psp and we get flames, couldn't you have just uploaded an animated gif to the website, because this isnt worth downloading, putting on your psp, loading gta, then emenu, then this, just to see some flames, same as that cube demo thingy.... dont get me wrong, as i know your all going to get on your high horses about this, but come on, while i appreciate your efforts.... this is so 80's PD Demos days, it certainly doesn't show what a great programmer fanjita is, (he must be really bored or something) although if he did stick an audio player in it like Phool said that would be cool.

If i made this, i'd probly be chuffed as punch with it, but thats because i can only just about do simple flash programming and i wouldn't upload it anywhere though, because of the simplicity, but fanjita? home brew may take a lllllllooooonnn nngggg time for 2.7+



ps. i love fanjita, he's great... if your bored how about conveting a decent GBA emulator or perhaps a decent ps1 emulator

Hey don't knock the flames demo! It may not serve any useful purpose to you apart from it looking cool, but it's great for us people who are learning to program on the PSP. The source is included, which in my opinion, brings it level with *useful* programs that don't have any source included.



Oh, and Fanjita is a allowed to take some time off from the eloader you know! After all, he is doing it all for free!

# just for relaxationFanjita 2006-05-06 02:28
Just a quick note to explain where this came from...



I've been doing a lot of heavy duty brainwork recently, with staring at disassembly looking for exploits, and working on revamping the eLoader code.



I had this old demo code lying around from ... hmm, about 15 years ago ... so I figured it would give my brain a rest for an hour or two to quickly port it over to the PSP.



Originally we'd been intending to do something like putting it into the eLoader menu as an animated background, but the chances are that we won't get around to doing that for a while. So I figured I would just release it, with source, so that anyone wanting to mess around with similar code (and believe me, experimenting with 2D visual effects is a GREAT way to learn about all sorts of aspects of coding) would have somewhere to start. I consider it my little contribution to the psp-programming.com site, since we're reluctant to release the eLoader source. The source for Flamez is all open and anyone is welcome to do whatever they like with it.



Anyway, play with it, don't play with it, it's not supposed to be a big deal. Just something I did to take my mind off harder stuff, and that I released because there was no reason not to.



Anyway, it tickled me to be able to release Flamez on the Noobz site...

# no offenceGuest 2006-05-06 02:46
i wasn't trying to offend, just thought if your having a rest you could port something good like A DECENT ps1 emulator, this would open up a lot of games.

I would do it myself but old dog and new tricks........

i'd have a psp version ready in time for the launch of the new psp 6!! (for the chavs in here thats a long time!!)



you know you get the highest respect from all here fanjita,



just eloader=awesome, flamez=poo

I don't see why everyone has such a problem with this, just because it doesn't play roms.

Granted i forgot to mention to pspupdates that it was open source and they didn't pick up on it themselves.

I think that this is a really cool effect, even though it may not be original, and i plan to use it in the title screen/menu of a game i am currently working on.

Things like these are invaluable tools for people like me who are just getting into programming.

# yeah just jumble up lots of source codeGuest 2006-05-06 03:38
i dont think the idea is you just take code and put it in your programs, its more you look at how it was done, and improve/change it, otherwise you could just combine a nice 3d cube intro with a flamez effect title screen and a shaky N64 emulator, call it the 'nintendo flaming cube' and you have a new program. Hang on a minute, that gives me an idea**

Funny apps, thanks :) ! With sound it would be awesome, when you fill depressed, just watch a classic log fire and you fill better :D

# The real problemGuest 2006-05-06 04:54
The real problem isn't this program. It's the quality control of this site. You see an N64 emulator, and then after it, you might see a LUA paint. This is in no fault of the authors, of course, because other people send in the news. Ask PSPUPdates.com to have people to filter stuff out.

Think slashdot. Posts should have relvancy icons or something that distinguishes the categories that different people would want to see it (i.e. programmers, music buffs, techno kiddies, etc). If I were browsing down the news, I can easily skip stuff that I don't care about, instead of reading 50 millions incarnations of lua paint before I see something decent.

I think you're missing the point that this took 1-2 hours to do. A new emulator would take hundreds of times that. It was just a diversion, and the source code might be interesting for some people.



I didn't bother reporting it to any sites (except to post it to psp-programming.com), it wasn't supposed to be a big deal.



Ah well, I had fun with it :P
