| - David G. F. for helping me with several issues and tests. |
| |
| ## Building |
| To build SDL2 library for the PS2, make sure you have the latest PS2Dev status and run: |
| ```bash |
| cmake -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$PS2DEV/ps2sdk/ps2dev.cmake |
| cmake --build build |
| cmake --install build |
| ``` |
| |
| ## Hints |
| The PS2 port has a special Hint for having a dynamic VSYNC. The Hint is `SDL_HINT_PS2_DYNAMIC_VSYNC`. |
| If you enabled the dynamic vsync having as well `SDL_RENDERER_PRESENTVSYNC` enabled, then if the app is not able to run at 60 FPS, automatically the `vsync` will be disabled having a better performance, instead of droping FPS to 30. |
| |
| ## Notes |
| If you trying to debug a SDL app through [ps2client](https://github.com/ps2dev/ps2client) you need to avoid the IOP reset, otherwise you will lose the conection with your computer. |
| So to avoid the reset of the IOP CPU, you need to call to the macro `SDL_PS2_SKIP_IOP_RESET();`. |
| It could be something similar as: |
| ```c |
| ..... |
| |
| SDL_PS2_SKIP_IOP_RESET(); |
| |
| int main(int argc, char *argv[]) |
| { |
| ..... |
| ``` |
| For a release binary is recommendable to reset the IOP always. |
| |
| Remember to do a clean compilation everytime you enable or disable the `SDL_PS2_SKIP_IOP_RESET` otherwise the change won't be reflected. |
