Iris – a 3D third person shooter
Gary13579 | January 11, 2006
Recently, a game called Iris has popped up in a programming competition, which is a very nice looking third person shooter.
Hopefully this will be improved, and if WiFi is added, then it could make for a great online game.
From the readme
This is the first build of what hopefuly will become a big fan favorite in the psp scene.
Iris is a Simple yet fun death match game for the psp. Users can load up one of the included maps &
player models to play with or go online and download more maps & Quake 2 models to use in game. The
over all goal of this project is to have something simple, quick & fun yet not be restricted to maps
or characters they dont like. Eventualy the project will progress far enough to allow many things to
be modified or different game types made by the scene.
On behalf of Iris team, Happy Hunting!!
P.S. Sorry it’s a little rough around the edges still. I will hopefuly be releasing version 0.2 as early as this weekend to improve things.Suported Features
.) Simple yet fun deathmatch gameplay.
.) Suports Quake 3 Maps modified for Iris (Document to come soon).
.) Suports Quake 2 MD2 Character Model Files (Document to come soon).
.) Basic & Advance Controlls.
.) Play against 0-4 bots (with simple AI).To Do
.) WiFi – Infrastructure & Adhoc.
.) Proper polygon clipping.

first post whooo finally a decent game lol
looks pretty good
is it for all frimwares?
No, this kinda thing is never for all firmwares.
My basic thoughts:
Could afford to have the characters run just a LITTLE faster!
Maybe some sound
smarter AI
Everything that I think would be cool they’re already working on.
It’s about time we got something like this. Once it gets a few things fixed it’ll be homebrew giant, just like the Quake 2 bootleg. It just keeps getting better
I’m glad this person is going to further the game more. For a first release it’s fairly decent :D The fact that you can add characters that you want is interesting ;)
work on 2.0?
Works on 2.0, use the 1.5 ver as per the instructions in the read me file.
Nice 1st release
TETRIS NOW WORKS ON 2.6 CHECK OUT PSP UPDATES!!!!
Everytime I try to install, it says Game cannot start, corupted data, can anyone help?
(I have 2.0 also)
You need Fanjita’s Eboot Loader if you have 2.0 #9
does not work ofr me i have 2.0
Ahh Ty #10
yes!!!
I am so happy
not so much about this game but more about the fact that this site started update regularly again. cause I really like this site; it fast, organize, and it have less ads.
thanks
i like this game, its cool that us homebrewers can have our own game thats made in our world, great job on the first version. o and i can’t wait for 0.02 to come out. i think that this game will have lots and lots of updates to come.
first off i love this and it sounds like its only going to get beter but i hav a few ideas that i would like to see in up cuming releases 1) run faster 2) shoot faster 3) and maby a littel aimer its kinda hard to know wear your bollets going to go.
Jesus christ those are confusing installation instructions for a 2.0…..
o ya also maybe jump or a crawl option? that would be nice. maybe if you press up the person will jump and if u press downd the person will duck or crawl mode, or hold up and press L / hold down press L
just a thought:) lol
where do you put the maps and the player models?
I like it. the bugs i guess will be resolved but, where’s the sound yo?!
what file should the maps be in?
great game! hopefully the new version wold be much greater than this. Sound needs to be added, also the battle on wifi! That would be amazing (not to mention the first online game for psp that I would have played) Also, the graphics need work, when you stand close near a wall or move very quicklythe mapping changes. Kinda reminds me of mario 64 (it was always fun to freak out my friends and say that I’m walking on water or somethng when I would just chage the camera angle)
ha ha ha #15 mixed up his O’s and U’s
Works great on 2.0
To Install/Must have eboot loader v0.9 i use
x = Memory Stick Root
x/iris
x/psp/game/iris 1.0 eboot inside folder
Reboot PSP after Install
Tryed comment #7 Install did not work for me but this way did using EBOOT V1.0
Great work
does it accept half-life bsp files aswell as you could then create your own maps or just get a quake 3 bsp creator
i dout it does it said in the reed me that the maps have to be special made or something
it doesnt work for me.
i have fw 1.5
The maps must be Quake III BSP files with 24bit TGA textures. Models used must be Quake II MD2 files, again with 24bit TGA textures…and all textures MUST be square!
You can follow production of this engine at http://nemo.dcemu.co.uk/

Firmware 2.60 Hacked – First Homebrew Emerges!
.
.
.
.
It is now possible to play homebrew on your PSP no matter what firmware it has.
.
.
.

nickel doggy, you have got to be the stupidist individual to ever post here, and that includes all flames including this one.
It is NOT possible to play all homebrews on your PSP and the tetris homebrew for 2.01-2.60 was announced days ago! You really need to read postings before going about and announcing news that is rather old.
Aside from that, Great start to a GREAT game! I look forward to the next release
Damn nice work…I’ll download it when it’ll be Infrastructure compatible. Then homebrew users will have a lot of fun :)
#21 – This is called a graphics collision bug. It happens in all 3d games. In this case, it’s like the camera is getting behind the wall. I’ve never seen a 3d game where the devs have managed to correct all the collision bug.
Very nice. I spent the last three months making a 3D game with a team from scratch, it was hell. It was our first game so now I can really appreciate the work being done here :)
Good job, good luck and good times!
Really Cool. I c a lot of potencial in the near future.
im gay
ok i managed to put some char in the game but the skin wont load i have them in tga format dono how to now if there 24bit
ok iv confirmed there 24bit but how do i make them square?
this si quite nice justsome music needs to be added and the maps need more color and also the guns bulluts need to nod be red spinning squares
#29 did you even read #28’s post? he said “It is now possible to play homebrew on your PSP no matter what firmware it has.” not It is now possible to play every single homebrew ever created on your PSP no matter what firmware it has.
Meh… it’s ok. The ainimation is choppy and the levels are very basic. This game is hardly like Quake.
Wow, I can’t believe the unappreciation… They put a fragger out there to download… for free mite I add… and then you thank them by saying “Socom’s better” and the like… it’s a true shame, these folks put their heart and soul into what they make and I for one, really appreciate it. I love you all, and can’t wait for the next release.
does the 3rd person work with
2.01?
Yeah dude… why can’t some people appriciate hard work on things like these… I bet the creators had to put in a lot of hours to make this game. Nice Work… could you dudes also consider adding an AD HOC mode and an infastructure mode?
I don’t have wireless where I live… :(
I have tried it on 2.0 with multiple eboot loader versions and tried every installation process possible(Yes I tried the fuking normal instructions, the 1.5 version and the 1.0, plus other ways that might work) and found it not to work on 2.0.It just goes black, the end…..Anyone with 2.00 get it to work?Maybe I missed a possible installation combination..
When I start the game it says it cant find any maps. Can someone please help me?
ok #44 download eboot loader 0.9 then download iris tu make iris work you have to put the iris folder that has players models etc in the memory stick root and the other iris folder in psp/games/ then load the game with eboot loader it works i have firmware 2.0 and it runs fine been trying to add new player but i cant get the skin to load well thas hope it helps
Hmmm wtf is happening? the game starts as a black screen then I see (no characters found and (no maps found. Isnt those things included or what? where do I find files and where do I put them?
Happy for any help
