greg | December 12, 2006
Tell me this doesn’t look cool… You may have heard about it, Virtools — an exciting new and flexible platform to easily develop and deploy 3D games for the PSP.
Very intriguing! Let us know what you think below.

Sweet Action Jackson!
very interesting
YESSSSSSSSS 20TH POST!#@$&^^
Does no download mean that it’s only for professional developers, or it’s just not out yet? I sure as hell hope its public; because I would LOVE to see what people come up with.
I dont know, but I would love to see how far people will be willing to push the envelope with this thing, in terms of creating games so messed up and offensive you couldnt possibly buy them in a store. thats what im waiting for. i want to see games like GTA, except with no lines drawn on things like pets and handicapped people. that would totally rock
how about we creat a game with handicaped peole who go around in there eletric wheel charis and blow the crap out of people like you insted.
just becasue some one is handicaped it dosnet meen they are any less of a person.
wow, that’s some kickass dev tool!!
no offense, but i didnt enjoy that site at all. the video was cool, but when i went to the site I found myself lost in corporate hell. site’s like that always kind of bother me, because there’s no download link or any kind of ‘buy it’ button for this product. is this thing even available to the general public or do you have to be a developer licensed through Sony to obtain it?
that is da bomb!!!! where can i get that at!!!?????!!!!!!!?????!?
coming soon to torrent…
????????????????????
HAHHAHA, yea…..um Google is your friend, so is torrentz.com
It’s for professional developers. Notice the thick black cord on the back of the PSP unit, it’s a dev unit.
do you work for them?
No, but we develop for the psp :)
why isnt the average person allowed to use developer tools? that really bothers me
Cindy,
Any programmer with a lick of spit and some C/C++ can write programs for the PSP. All thats need are the PSPSDK from ps2dev.org and a 1.5 PSP. Granted it’s not kosher by Sony’s standard, but that’s how I got started before I got my current job. There’s tons of resources and sample code to show you how to do just about anything.
PSP_DEV
what is with that site i cant find the download link or anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it is for sony only.
No, you can find it on public torrent trackers as well.
so yea its nice where the hell do we get it ? :/
its probably a basic command program it has a flowchart on the bottom why wuld it display a flowchart unless thouse are the basic commands like “jump,get points, if you get points WIN”
:/ kinda of a downer if you put it that way no ?
Well it is cool… i hope it can come to our devs. but it just goes to show you how much sony was holding the psp back!
how was sony holding it back, they dont make many of the games, they just publish them.
From virtools.com:
“We’re now looking demonstrating our newly available solutions for the “PSP®” to studios and interested in high quality titles developed smarter,” says Virgile Delporte, vice electronic entertainment for Virtools.”
This devtool is for licensed Sony PSP developers only. Sorry guys.
can i buy it off u guys?
I could pay u guys $300 to $500.
Never mind microsofts better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
just kidding!!!!!!!!!! i say sony and microsoft are about the same.
Yeah thats fucking Awesome.
wat firmwares does it run on?
ITs FOr SONY DEVS ONlY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No, it’s actually out on torrent trackers.
13 days untill christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3 days till chanukkah
were do i download this
its for anybody i think but it costs $9500 so i dont think its for your average person
thats about the same price as Workbrain. that whole 10,000 dollar software thing is bullshit. i think software developers are turning towards that price as a standard fee for big business software because they know they will have companies willing to pay that much.
Nice! But where the hell is a download link?! :(
No download link yet.
that looks awesome
it better mean the begining of lots of good games
i give it around 1 month for it to be at least on torrent… or maybe some p2p programs…
lol…
it wont matter if you dont have that special cable it uses. thats why its ‘for developers only’
looks very interesting but even if it went out for us, it would be pretty dificult to program it without some manuals… at least for who doesnt have any 3d programing xp lime me
FUCKIN AWESOME!
OMG! I think I just found a torrent about it! Cant post links but this is how the torrent is named. DASSAULT.SYSTEMES.VIRTOOLS.V4.0-EDGEISO_[LINK REMOVED...sry cant post it]
Is that it? I got it just in case. =/ Its probably something else but I think its worth a shot. ^_^ Im getting it!
…never mind…its 5oo bytes…couldnt possibly be it. *sigh*
Looks promising for the devs.
im sure tht on the whole internet, sum 1 will post a trial version or sumthing… search google…i hope sumbody duz b/c this kicks ass!
look ITS NOT AVAILABLE to THE PUBLIC!!
What ever happened to the other development tools?
They were made so developers could make 3D homebrew, but I’ve only seen around 2-3 3D homebrew games…
This will be the third set of tools hopefully when it gets released and cracked people will actually use it…
this thing looks awesome…i really wanna see how far people are willing to push this thing….hell! the games may even be better than current psp games…..who knows!!
never
thats pretty nasty not gonna lie i can see some nasty 3d games comin out
wtf ur nast BITCH!
I MEANT NASTY BTW
You’re a fuckin spaz
They got this on Demonoid!!!!!!!!
Those demos look better than about 75% of the stuff out now IMHO… but probably because there wasn’t a lot going on.
I found something: http://down.cd/info_2004.html
Meh thats just VNC in game mode. Trying to trick you guyses.
aahha
it’s funny, because the second game featured in the video looks better than some of the on shelf games these days.
this could be used like homebrew to get 64 full speed
torrents.to
lol search torrentspy its there
This looks fuckin Savage!!!

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Dassault Systemes Virtools v4.0.0.26
The Virtools 4 Life Platform ushers in a unique solution for pervasively
developing and deploying 3D experiences on personal computers, game
consoles, Intranets and the web, demonstrating Dassault Systemes
commitment to bringing the power of 3D to all user communities.
The open-ended architecture of Virtools 4 supports a wide variety of 3D
formats. 3D Content Capture plugins support most commonly used DCC
software formats (3ds Max, Maya, XSI, Lightwave, Collada) for importing
and exporting 3D XML files, making real-time 3D technology easily
available.
Now based on the new Product-Context-Scenario (PCS) paradigm, Virtools 4
allows users to imagine, share and experience highly interactive 3D
content. This new paradigm represents a highly intuitive means of
capturing the 3D experience and easily mapping product behavior, along
with contextual environment scenarios.
With PCS, the Virtools 4 Life Platform enables easy development of
virtual experiences such as driving, shopping, product use, maintenance
and marketing tests.
Virtools 4 also extends the range of target environments for deploying 3D
experiences: Microsoft Windows and Apple MacOS computers, Microsoft Xbox
and Sony PSP game consoles, Intranets via 3D Office and 3D XE Players,
Internet via the 3D Life Player, as well as immersive environments via
the VR Library.
This broad scope highlights the diversity of potential deployment options
and provides a large range of communities with a powerful solution to
create and experience life content.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Unrar, Burn or mount with Daemon Tools.
2. Use our keygen in the CRACK dir to generate a Serial and License file.
3. Enjoy!
PS. We are aware that if you select only the “Multiuser Server” install
item it will complain, it was that way on the original DVD too,
however it is installed as part of an full normal Virtools install,
and it is enabled in the License file.
We are a new group, dedicated to quality and not quantity, more info coming!
Many times we’ve walked the line, longing for the other side…
…So we pack our bags and ride into the sunset
We don’t know where we’re gonna go but that don’t matter at all
We’re gonna do it our way and we don’t change for no one
Cause we’re living on the EDGE and we got nothing to lose…
BTW
BTW, will 2.81+ be able to use this or only homebrw people?
where did you get this
To the poster above, stop your fucking bullshit, v4 isnt available on torrents, you can download v3 though and its 613.91 MB ( 643727168 bytes) so fuck knows why v4 needs a DVD
“SIZE……….16 x 50MB”
lieing Bstard
actually im pretty sure v4 is out there. and torrents suck you faggot so he could have gotten it from somewhere else. i dont get any of my shit from torrents, but i bet i still have a better selection than you. and no i dont use stupid kazza limewire bullshit.
hey retards, the one above, i downloaded it, installed it, and am going to be releaseing a homebrew i made on it very shortly. so all you retards who say it doesn’t exist, SHUT THE FUCK UP
It is actually out im downloading it right now its 737.26mb and it is out on torrents
v4 is avaliable, im downloading now
what version does this run on?
its not going to do you any good to copy it…if you dont have that developer’s cable.
Does anyone knows what’s the name of the music track that we hear in this video?
Thanks all!
i think greg or paul should put up a note saying its for developers and not downloads etc etc
stop the confusion ppl!
Well I almost have it and its 750mb and I hope it works its off a good site so we will see I will tell everybody if it works its from a torrent site call Oink and its a invite only torrent site lets hope its the real deal
is it hosted on oink? i have an account too :D
maybe an armadillo run a port on the psp…
ahhh… extrame physics
http://www.armadillorun.com/
plz help how do i unbrick my psp plz plz plz
depends if youre running 2.71-SE or not.
the BEST thing (not the easiest or cheapest) is to get a mod-chip, because it has a secondary flash which can run many things, including other firmware or unbricking utilities.
very nice video and really shitty website
i have the program, anyone want? i can give u links to get it…just email me…
i want it, but wuts yer email?
LOL at the fact that 50 people asked the same questions over and over. But seriously, I’m sure someone will eventually hack this so we can just mount it to an ISO without that developers cable. Until then, just calm down. lol
woot lets make fps’s now!!!!!!
Im not so much into psp homebrew although I would like to admit that that was pretty jaw dropping… Im more into downgraders and exploits like my new beta…. it will be realeased on I believe From Christmas to June…… For all you that are wondering its a 3.00 homebrew enabler exploit and my other project that will really come in handy….. an UNBRICKER without a modchip.(No Epsilon)
wow thats pretty cool i want it
I think PSP wont have the ability to render such graphics as shown in the video. It just stream the data from the PC and the one who’s doing the rendering job is the PC… That’s why there’s a black cord behind the PSP! (my assumption only)
the graphics weren’t that great and it could easily run that with it at clock 333mhz
Please !!!
Does anyone knows what’s the name of the music track that we hear in this video?
no, the song sucks.
i can make those noises with my mouth and it sounds almost the same.
try it.
Could this be an older version
