Hi, I am trying to develop a monkey app to run with the PSM emulator. i have PSM installed and can run the PSm emulator via PSM Studio.. Works fine.

but In monkey i can not see any references to a PSS build option?

Any quick responce would be great

Have you set the PSS_PATH to point to the SDK, in the config.winnt.txt file?

'Play Station Suite SDK path.
'
'PSS_PATH must be set for PSS target support.
'
PSS_PATH="C:\SCE\Pss"

Are you using the demo of Monkey or the Pro version?

I am just confused as You say "Using MonkeyPro60" in the title but you say "MonekyDemo45c" just above and I am sure you cant use anything but HTML5 in the demo.

Hi, Yeah just reading through all the indo that seems to be true, th demo version is not open to ther platforms.

Does that mean I have to buy monkeyPro in order to do this simple app?

I have MonkeyPro on my PC but no source in ther is ther an easy way to get a screen up or something using monkeyPro?

OK..

thanks for talking BTW..

I have now tried this in MonkeyPRO

Import mojo

Class Game Extends App

Method OnCreate()
Print "hello"
End

End

Function Main()
New Game()
End

Works fine in HTML5

In my target ist i get the following

HTML5
GLFW
XNA
METRO

But NO PSS

Any ideas on that And I do have PSS_path set

Can you post where the config.winnt.txt is?
Eg:
C:\MonkeyPro\bin\

And double check that the PSS_path is set...

Also what IDE are you using? Monk, Jungle or Ted?

Ok Nearly there

in jungle now compiling a simple print hello program Using target pss :)

i get this

The system cannot find the path specified.
TRANS FAILED: TRANS Failed to execute '"C:/SCE/PSM/tools/PssStudio/bin/mdtool" pss windows run-project MonkeyGame.sln', return code=1
Abnormal program termination. Exit code: -1

Have you see this before?

I think the first thing to do would be make sure that the file it says is missing is actually where its looking.

Copy the path inside the "" (select it hit CTRL+C) then past it into your START>RUN box (CTRL+V) and whack enter.

your sdk install path might be close but just a little different to what its looking for, you possibly made a typo in your config file.

Yes

In My Instalation of the sdk its SCE/PSM

Not SCE/PSS

Is there a difference or do i just rename things to be PSS from PSM?

Can you check your Window's environmental PATH?

I had an issue and found out that you need to have Gtk to be the first one in the list to get the PSS target to work.

That last error seems to suggest MonoDevelop can't find something, and previously you've been using JungleIDE. What happens if you open the MonkeyPro folder and run your examples from monk.exe?

It is error in trans because Sony changed PSS to PSM.

I tried it with latest sdk,and it doesn't work.

I posted bug report and solution in it.
