[RELEASE] OneManga PSP Client

[ChaoticXSinZ]

Manga readers rejoice! You now have a client to read manga from onemanga.com directly from your PSP.
Hello.

Well as I mentioned in my intro thread I like Manga and programming.

So one night after nearly destroying my PSP in frustration as I tried to do some late night manga reading using the PSP browser I got a great idea: Why not create a native OneManga client for the PSP that runs like any other game? The next day I set out on learning how to make an application for the PSP.

**DISCLAIMER 1: This is basically the first fully featured program I've ever made in C++. So expect so the occasional bug.**

**DISCLAIMER 2: Tested only on firmware 5.00M33-6. **

Now that we've passed all that here is a video for you guys:

Watch on youtube here.

Link to download viedo: HERE << Another of my programming creations (youGetter -- Download youtube videos)

The video features the first image of chapter 5 of Bakuman.

The music before the program actually launches is a shortened version of the Naruto opening GO!.

The voices in the video are my 2 bros and me.

Sorry for the crappy video as I had to use my builtin laptop cam because I wasn't able to get psplinkusb (program that lets you use your computer as psp screen) working.

Here is the link to download it: RIGHT HERE or download attachment.

To Install:
------------
- Download the above zip file.
- Unzip somewhere.
- Transfer the extracted folder and all its contents "OneMangaPSP" to the PSP in the PSP/GAME directory.

Nicely written app. Manga fans will love this one.

This is the right spot to release your homebrew. I've added you to the Programmers group. This grants you permission to attach files to your forum posts

Will this work for CFWe in 5.03? And what is the modding you mentioned?

[ChaoticXSinZ]

I mentioned modding in the thread lined to because unlike this forum members there might not be aware of how to run homebrew. And like I mentioned above [after the edit] I've only been able to test on SLIM 5.00 M33-6.

Hopefully someone can test FATs and other firmwares for me.

Also. I'll probably be releasing a BETA2 soon [today or tomorrow].

One last thing that I've thought of is expanding this to other manga sites. This would actually be pretty easy as I would only need to change the API so watch for that.

Awesome program! Thank you very much, I'm sure I'll be using this constantly.

sweet, thanks!!!

[Steven_PSN-14]

Hehe, very nice, thanks.

[Secret Dragoon]

This was very very nice. I did a few tests on it and I found some things that need corrected, or so I think.

> When selecting the connection at the beginning the screen is really glitchy, unlike how it should be
> To scroll through the Manga list you have to go one click at a time rather than the [ ] + Up / Down that is said.

Other than that I really like it and will use it.
