Psix Source


Psix, without a doubt, is the most controversial piece of homebrew ever released onto our laps. It was announced just over a year ago, and has hit more bumps on the development road than Microsoft has had with Windows Vista. After all the delays, cancellations, and additions to the team – Psix became a highly wanted shell.

 

After psix was released, there was a lot of hate going around – but we all have passed that stage now. People complained that Fluff/Naoneo did not release the source; others applauded the first release such as myself. We all waited for the next release which would bring even more features, and we are still waiting for even more now.

 

Here at QJ, we are the first, and the only to receive the source to psix. Yes, that is right, I have the source to the famous shell right in my hands, just ready to be uploaded. The source code is something to marvel at – the complexity, the sheer size of the archive, and the thing that matters most – the code to the fist PSP shell ever announced. After having received permission from the main man himself – we are distributing the source to psix below.

 » So What?

Just like all other PSP Shells PSIX didnt offer the PSP scene anything other than an attempt to push a WIMP interface into a system that didnt need one.

It offered nothing to anyone. It was a pointless abberation in the world of PSP homebrew.

everyone thinks ir shell is da best but to me the ultimate shell was file assistant, and it was on of the only shell that could play videos, whether it was mkv avi or mp4. i hate how file assistant is so over looked for that crappy shell called ir.

Ive never heard of file assistand, where does one get it?

 » Good stuff

Thanks to Fluff for releaseing his code. Hopefully the scene will do some good stuff with it. He certainly made a very slick looking shell. For all those people saying that other shells are better, just wait and see how this develops. Choice is good.

Not only was the source released but the source of the source is gone. Looks like this is the end of psix, psix exis and all the rest. go look the new forums are gone. Fluff musta been pissed off or something. See Fluff put up a contest on the site, with a $500usd reward if someone could figure out an encrypted picture, the deal was at first to pm fluff with your results to see if you were right, then after a few weeks became pissed off because there were too many pm's. Hence closed down the replies for the contest. Fluff is childish. After getting donators and possibly making those who thought they were friends she gets rid of it all.

WHY?

Who the hell knows, it wasn't because of the attention by chance? can someone answer that?


I have but this little bit of advice:

If you are going to hype people up, expect the hype. Don't run scared or get pissed off at people over something you and you alone did!

I waited all this time for this? to be left high and dry??? WTF is that all about?????????




Never trust the INTERNET

You know you are so right.

IR is over-rated just like this psix shell. I couldn't help but laugh how the poster of this blog was creaming his pants over the divine holiness of the mighty pee-six shell.

And you know the kicker?

Both of these shells are made by the biggest crybabies on the PSP scene, Fluff and AhMan.

These were the same guys who talked crap about Yoshihiro and SonyXteam and were the darlings of QJ before SonyXTeam, Booster and Dark_alex proved themselves.

 » god i hate psix

irshell does SOME interesting things... if file assistant also does them then i'm cool with that being a contender for 'best shell'... but psix!!

i am going to be calm and not smash anything, this time... but psix took the biscuit, i was very annoyed by the whole issue, and it didn't do anything noteworthy.

i hate naoneo/fluff, i hate all you people who PAID him/her money to continue making it, and lastly, i hate you! yes you! you still maintain it's good!? my blood boils at the very mention of psix, down with psix and all it stands for...
it's fitting that it has simply gone out with a whimper, now may it rot in hell.

Just wait! in a few hours ps2nfo.com will have the source up and claim to be the first and only!

Finally this is out!

You guys still hating on fluff? Immature... Feel so bad for fluff *sigh*...

Hopefully I'll learn how to program and compile the PSIX one day, or someone can compile it.... but I Hope everyone here that said this shell suck don't download it, cuz you all don't deserve it, selfish childish bas***ds...

W/E.... So what if Fluff is a guy or a girl? that dosen't mean you should diss on it too much... fluff could'v made the best shell out there, but cuz of flamers... hate on yourselves... If you don't like don't talk about it, just walk away

   by comedy - 2006-08-10
 » hahah, immature!?

yeah, i've stuck to my guns... i'm not stepping down, i fought psix from the word 'go'... you call me immature for hating? well guess what, they never did one thing to make me like them, i hated that fluff demanded payment for a useless app and i still do. if fluff were to say sorry i would forgive him/her... but there's no chance of that because he/she is not sorry. so we'll have to hate each other.

call me immature for hating someone? well get bent!
that's right, you're immature, not me!

 » irshell more useful

Ir Shell was the most useful of the shells for the sole purpose you could browse and playback files from your computer via usb or wifi. I've used Psix but never actually found it useful.

   by manaox2 - 2006-08-10
 » Exis? Screw anyone that disses AhMan.

Firstly, PSIX and IRShell are way different shells and AhMan has never done anything to justifiably upset anyone. In my (humble because I don't program anywhere near as well as Fluff or Ahman) opinion, IRShell is NOT overrated. It's almost underrated... and he doesn't cry about it (no where near as much as his users may). It started off as just a way to play mp3s in the background of homebrew and control IR devices. It just happened to become the best shell and an almost equal to FileAssistant.

Fluff made a good move here though guys. The announcement of Exis should have been enough. Get over your distaste of its origins and focus on the accomplishments made.

The SonyXteam don't even deserve what they get when they only lie and take every attempt at taking credit for others acheivements. (think WAB)

I hope this really doesn't mean the discontinuing of Exis. Fluff is a great programmer, but like some he needs more than just recognition for his hard work and couldn't trust the users to provide that without more motivation. He obviously went the wrong way about it, but find a way to pass the stick out of some of your butts. Take generosity and gifts for what their really worth.

 » Fluff is a guy.

And I've heard that sometimes his wife (maybe girlfriend, not sure) helps out too through the shared s/n.

   by anonymous stranger - 2006-08-10
 » W/E...

Look, why don't you be a little smart, ok what do you care if people pay fluff for this shell? They are dumb or rich and don't care, tell them they shouldn't but if they still do it then good for them, none of your business, why can't you just let it go? so what if fluff charged for the shell? don't pay, nobody force you to pay for the shell or forced you to like it, why do people have to start hate things? I'd just ignore it, pretend is not there, what? you think your bringing justice to this homebrew scene? Is fluff's creation and fluff can do whatever he pleases if someone wants it, is righfully his, and if you want it that bad to do whatever he tell you, then your the dumb one, there is no point in YOU stopping him...

@ Comedy, let's end the war, i'm sorry.

I'm sorry that : Psix sucked, that anyone ever had to part with a dime to access any aspect of it, that it took so long to never get finnished, and that it's now died.

Truth is, i hate psix, i hate it with every inch of my soul, for the past 5 or 6 months it's been nothing but a burden to me, last month was the last push to try and get things on track, and it seems all the push did was knock the car onto the wrong sides of the track, so this is the result, the crash.

i haven't released this source for any other reason but for it to be used by other developers, so hopefully something good, no matter how small, will come from this mammoth mistake, i want the year and a half of my life back, and i'm starting by saying a buck ***** you to psix, i hope developers can pick out some useful stuff, and let the rest rot in hell.

Sorry to you all for having to put up with this pointless bull***** all this time.

-Fluff
