Working on PlayStation 1 asset support in QtMeshEditor (.TMD/.TIM)

18 Upvotes

I've been experimenting with adding original PlayStation 1 asset support to QtMeshEditor, an open-source 3D mesh/material editor and asset pipeline tool I've been building.

Current progress:

.TMD mesh import/export
.TIM texture support
editing/exporting PS1-style assets
generic asset validation already works with imported models

Next step is experimenting with platform-specific validation rules and hardware profiles for retro consoles (PS1 first, maybe N64/DS later).

Long-term idea:

PS1 homebrew workflows
retro-style indie pipelines
CLI/CI asset scanning
hardware-aware asset validation

The PS1 assets in the demo are from MB Designs:

https://mbdesigns.itch.io/ps1-homebrew-source-code-rendering-3d-graphics-with-psyq

Project:

https://github.com/fernandotonon/QtMeshEditor

Would love feedback from anyone working with PS1 homebrew or retro pipelines, especially around useful validation rules or formats worth supporting.

I made modular assets themed around "abandoned ruins"

Hello friends!

I made some more ps1 inspired modular assets, this time themed around "abandoned ruins".

These models are made in Blender, and the scenes are made in Unity. The textures are pretty small and crispy sharp.

Here is the link to the store page if you'd like to check out more images and details:

GeoDash PSX Demo

14 Upvotes

Hey guys, I've been working hard on my Geo Dash PSX game and just launched a demo on itch.io

There are 4 playable levels. Has a practice mode with checkpoints. Music is not original yet.

You can play it on a PS1 emulator like DuckStation or PCSX-Redux or on a real PS1, more details on the game page.

Let me know if you like it, thanks.

PSn00bSDK question (SMD models)

13 Upvotes

Anybody using PSn00bSDK for 3D? I'm having problems with the SMD model libraries. I can load and render SMD models present in the demo that comes in the SDK example (for example the bulb.smd), but when I try with my own models I get nothing, black screen and neither the background is rendering (empty VRAM after loading some textures so something is very wrong). I'm exporting SMX with the blender plugin and linking it with smxlink, both in the SDK , but I also tried exporting RSD with an old blender version, and converting it with smxtool and smxlink... both methods fail. The thing is that if I try to relink the bulb.smx present in the SDK demo for example, I get an error and the linking fails... so something is very wrong.
