[SCEI CONFIDENTIAL DOCUMENT] "PlayStation 2" Artist Tool Sound Previewer Release 1.1.1 Copyright (C) 2000 by Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. All Rights Reserved Aug. 2000 ====================================================================== Artist Tool (Sound previewer) [ Introduction ] The Artist Tool is a program for creating and previewing the contents. With the Artist Tool in this package, data and/or commands are transferred to the debugging station (for PlayStation 2) from the host environment (MacOS/Linux) via USB or a network to display or playback animations. The program supports creating and previewing the sound related contents. In the documents of the release package, the debugging station (for PlayStation 2)(DTL-H10000) is referred to as "debugging station". [ Note ] All the files and/or contents of this package are restricted to the use for the Artist Tool and it is strictly prohibited to use them for the Programmer Tool. The Artist Tool is updated only when the Artist Tool itself is modified or when there is a problem in using it due to the modification in the Programmer Tool, including libraries. Please be advised that the Artist Tool is not always updated when the Programmer Tool is updated. [ Required Environment ] The following environment is required for operating the Artist Tool. - This package - Debugging station - Memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation 2) - USB-Ethernet adapter (Note 1) - Network Cable - The Linux environment operating on the Intel x86 or the Intel x86 compatible processor or the Mac OS environment operating on the PowerPC. (Note 2) - Programmer Tool Runtime Library Release 2.0 (Note 3) - CD/DVD-ROM Generator - Sound Blaster or its compatible board (Note 4) Note 1: The operation of the following USB-Ethernet adapters are checked: MELCO LUA-TX I-O DATA USB-ET/TX PLANEX UE-100TX Corega FEther USB-TX Other than the above mentioned USB-Ethernet adapters, the interface with ADMtek AN986 chip is supposed to be recognized to the greatest extent, however, the operation is not guaranteed. SCEI has found that it may take a few minutes for the debugging station to be recognized in some cases by the repeated insertion/ extraction of the adapter or depending on the test environment. When this phenomenon takes place, leave it for a while and try again. When the adapters do not work properly other than the above, and it is not due to a hardware problem, please contact SCEI. Note 2: Linux: RedHat Linux 5.2, 6.0 (SCEI environment) Mac OS: PowerPC 604e or later (G3 or later is recommended), MacOS 8.6/OpenTransport 2.0.3 or later Note 3: SCEI has conducted a test operation with the library modules in the release 2.0. All the necessary library modules for testing are contained in this package. To test or develop a program using sample codes, be sure to check the library module version. Library modules in this package that are also released as the Programmer Tool Runtime Library are as follows. Note 4: Please use the Sound Blaster with a MIDI/Joystick port attached or a compatible board. A MIDI stream transfer feature is executable on condition that the board is recognized. Since a board setting procedure varies depending on individual boards and Linux environments, please refer to their respective manuals. At SCEI, we have tested a operation with the Sound Blaster AWE64 Gold. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Contents of this Package ---------------------------------------------------------------------- / |--target Files contained in a CD-R | |--atmon.elf | |--atmon.irx | |--atnet.irx | |--atfile.irx | |--atstream.irx | |--ioprp20.img ver.2.0 | |--mcman.irx ver.2.0 | |--mcserv.irx ver.2.0 | |--padman.irx ver.2.0 | |--sio2man.irx ver.2.0 | +--usbd.irx ver.2.0 |--mac File groups for Macintosh (Note 1) | +--SoundPreview111.sit | |--readme_e.txt | |--doc | | |--html | | | |--index.htm | | | |--gif | | | |--sover.htm | | | |--jam.htm | | | +--sformat.htm | | +--pdf | | |--sover.pdf | | |--jam.pdf | | +--sformat.pdf | |--Client | | +--Dsd | | |--sound_previewer Sound previewer | | | |--atsprev.elf | | | |--atsprev.irx | | | |--libsd.irx ver.2.0 | | | |--moddelay.irx ver.2.0 | | | |--modhsyn.irx ver.2.0 | | | +--modmidi.irx ver.2.0 | | +--Debugging Station Driver 2.0.3 | |--JAM | | |--JAM Driver Ver 1.0.0 | | +--JAM Ver 1.1.0 | +--Sample | |--Readme.txt | |--Overload | | |--Overload | | +--Overload.opt | |--OverloadSQ | | |--OverloadSQ | | +--OverloadSQ.opt | +--OverloadSMF | +--Overload.mid0 +--linux Files for Linux +--SoundPreview111.tgz |--doc | |--word | | |--sover.doc Overview of the artist tool | | |--atdev.doc Document for the artist tool development | | |--sprev.doc Sound preview operation in Linux | | +--sformat.doc Sound Data Format | +--html | |--index.htm | |--gif | |--sover.htm | |--atdev.htm | |--sprev.htm | +--sformat.htm |--sound_previewer Sound previewer | |--atsprev.elf | |--atsprev.irx | |--libsd.irx ver.2.0 | |--moddelay.irx ver.2.0 | |--modhsyn.irx ver.2.0 | +--modmidi.irx ver.2.0 |--client Clients | |--mcp_client | |--rfsv | |--scp_client | +--scp_stream |--sample_atsprev Source code samples (Note 2) | |--Makefile | |--readme.txt | |--elf | | |--readme.txt | | |--Makefile | | |--app.cmd | | |--crt0.s | | |--main.c | | +--rpc.c | |--include | | |--DCP.h | | |--DCP_MCP.h | | |--DCP_SCP.h | | |--atnet.h | | |--atsprev.h | | |--ee.h | | |--iop.h | | +--rpc.h | |--irx | | |--readme.txt | | |--Makefile | | |--main.c | | |--net.c | | |--rpc.c | | |--sq.c | | +--sq.h | |--rfsv | | |--Makefile | | |--rfsv.c | | +--rfsv.h | +--scp_client | |--readme.txt | |--Makefile | +--main.c | +--sample_data Sample data |--sakana.bd |--sakana.hd +--sakana.sq Copy the SoundPreview111.tgz file to your operating system if you are developing and/or previewing in the Linux environment or the SoundPreview111.sit file in the Macintosh environment. From this release, the sound previewer is contained under the directory, sound_previewer of each package thus there is no need for making copies of the file. Note 1: To decompress the package for Macintosh, please use the StuffItExpander ver. 5.0 or later. Note 2: As the source and header files under the linux/sample_atsprev directory are sample codes which extract only the basic features of the tools provided in binary format, it's not completely equivalent to the tool even after built. Therefore, the built sample files, the sound previewer under the sound_previewer/ directory, scp_client under the linux/client/ directory and all the programs in the Mac OS environment cannot be operated properly with some exceptions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since the Sound Previewer Release 1.1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Artist tools in this package have their atnet.irx updated (due to an increase in the number of USB Ether Adapter types). The following are additional USB Ether adapters (overseas version) with guaranteed operations. Linksys USB100TX (USA) D-Link DSB-650TX (USA) ADMtek Pegasus (Europe) D-Link DU-E100 (Europe) - The monitor program and sound previewer are built with the library modules of the release 2.0.
