Hi guys,

But i try it and i hope you understand what i mean.

Ive read a few tutorials about psp developing and iam trying to do my own programs.
I startet with hello world and a counter. It worked all fine, but i have this damn problem.

There seems to be a “invisible menu point” in my Game menu

Its like
=> Hello world
=> empty space whitout picture or text
=> counter
=> empty space whitout picture or text

its realy lame and i tried to fix it, but i dont get it.

Please help me :)

Thanks for reading!

EDIT:

Yes thats it, i tried a view things, like del the "test%" folder and so on, but it would not work.

You can also explain in english, i can better read and understand than write :)

Or give me a keyword so i can search

Thanks!

If you would like to search the keyword is kxploit.

mhhh no i dont get it, find a tool called "kxploit tool" to generate Menu entries but there is still "50% currupted Data in menu".( i also use the command "make kxploit" in Cygwin to compile my hembrews)

mh sorry i dont get it ...

If you rename the folders you can hide the corrupted icons. e.g. test and test% become __SCE__test and %__SCE__test. Or when you compile your program do make SCEkxploit instead of make kxploit. Hope i helped :)

wonderfull! Thanks a lot!

So last question for now:)

There is no image in the game menu, only the default thing. Is there a way to replace this default image with my own by using Cygwin?

(i know you can do this with "kxploit tool", but i mh.... i would like to know it for Cygwin :) (no speacial reason, just interesst) )

EDIT:
and how to set a fullscreen background image by selecting a menu entrie? ( like this one from devhook)

Questions over questions, thanks for reading!

Holy crap, I'm an idiot.

In your Makefile, set PSP_EBOOT_PIC1 and PSP_EBOOT_ICON, like so:

PSP_EBOOT_PIC1 = background.png
PSP_EBOOT_ICON = icon.png

The background image should be 480x272, and the icon should be 144x80.

here is another idea.
when you dg you usually see nothing instead of corrupted ICON ... to fix that just dg to 1.00 then upgrade to 1.50 . then it should be fine . at least it worked for me :).
