First off, you'll need a terminal one way or another.
On Windows, you basically have two choices:
- MSYS2 (follow the instructions at https://www.msys2.org/ to set it up)
- WSL (Windows 10 Linux terminal from the Windows Store, maintained by Microsoft, follow Linux instructions from here on).
Once you have MSYS2 set up, you'll need to copy the MIPS toolchain over. Download it here http://static.grumpycoder.net/pixel/mips/g++-mipsel-none-elf-11.2.0.zip.
Once you have it downloaded, make sure MSYS2 is closed, then open the zip up and extract the following folders into C:/msys64/usr/local/
- bin
- include
- lib
- libexec
- mipsel-none-elf
IMPORTANT - DELETE THESE FILES IN bin OR YOUR TERMINAL WILL BE FUCKED
- cat
- cp
- echo
- make
- mkdir
- touch
- rm
- touch
Next, open up MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit from the Start Menu, and you'll need to install some libraries, so run the following command and accept the prompts that follow pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake mingw-w64-x86_64-ninja mingw-w64-x86_64-tinyxml2 mingw-w64-x86_64-ffmpeg
First, you'll need to install the GCC toolchain, run one of the following commands depending on your distro.
On Debian derivatives (Ubuntu, Mint...):
sudo apt-get install gcc-mipsel-linux-gnu g++-mipsel-linux-gnu binutils-mipsel-linux-gnu
On Arch derivatives (Manjaro), the mipsel environment can be installed from AUR : cross-mipsel-linux-gnu-binutils and cross-mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc using your AURhelper of choice:
trizen -S cross-mipsel-linux-gnu-binutils cross-mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc
You'll also need to install ffmpeg (you may also need to install avformat, avfilter, and swscale separately), and cmake, which of course, depends on your distro of choice.
First, cd to somewhere safe where you can put source code (such as Documents or the PSXFunkin folder). Then run these few commands.
-
git clone https://github.com/spicyjpeg/PSn00bSDK -b psxmdec -
cd PSn00bSDK -
git submodule update --init --recursive --remote -
cmake --preset default . -DMKPSXISO_NO_LIBFLAC=1 --install-prefix /usr/local/(Linux users can change install-prefix to whatever they want, MSYS2 users should not touch it at all) -
cmake --build ./build -
cmake --install ./build
NOTE: You may need to update PSn00bSDK occasionally. Please repeat the above instructions if you do.
If you're using a dedicated terminal (MSYS2) or otherwise want to 'permanently' install PSn00bSDK, run the following command. (Only run this when you first compile and install PSn00bSDK)
echo -e "\nexport PSN00BSDK_LIBS=/usr/local/lib/libpsn00b" >> ~/.bashrc(Remember to change this if you changed install-prefix)
You'll need to either get a PSX license file and save it as licensea.dat in the iso/ directory (You find license files within http://www.psxdev.net/downloads.html PsyQ SDK).
Optionally, you can simply remove the referencing line <license file="${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/iso/LICENSEA.DAT"/> from funkin.xml.
Without the license file, the game may fail on certain emulators due to BIOS checks or console detection.
First, make sure to cd to the repo directory where all the makefile is. You're gonna want to run a few commands from here.
Now, you want to configure PSXFunkin, you have to do this before first compilation and when you want to change the configuration, such as the Title ID.
-
cmake --preset default . -DTITLE_ID="FUNK-00001"(If you have a Title ID, you can change it here) -
cmake --build ./build
This will compile PSXFunkin and generate the .iso file in build/
