Yes I stop this for now, I just finished to pimp a little the "Live Area" ( i.e. to understand better how that thing works ).

Now I can go back to "Saturday activities" :)

Haha, good skills, it may seem like a slightly tedious achievement in some ways but there's still plenty of satisfaction to be had from getting your head round some corporate packaging bollocks.

It's not exactly "bollocks" but it's a bit complicated as there can be different scenarios/types/etc. in the end it all makes sense
WHEN you finally got the sense of how it is, which means "quite a number of PDFs later" :lol:

Also "quite a number of Fanculo later" after you made a bit of tests there and there, read a few posts in the "dev net",
tried to make a working package a number of times ( > 10 ) learnt about various tools and how to use them and finally
made all the stuff "by the book" "as the rulez want".

The thing about all those architectures "in general" is that they are "designed to support a fuckload of different shit", where
as usual "you want 1/100th of it" but you still have to learn at least about the other 50 things before to understand where
is and how to use the 1/100th you want.

But yeah actually despite all from "I don't know a shit of all this yet" to "wow it installs and works as it should" took about 1
day and that's definitely "the fastest time of all I ever done", I think took definitely longer than that to have an iOS/Android package working.

I must say the documentation about all this is really "massive" ( which is a very good only 'con' is so much so much to read ) and the tech support is really good, I mean I never actually raised a support ticket yet but people in the forums are so good in replying :)

So far I am really enjoying - despite all the various "fanculo" ( but not many really ) moment all this coding :)

Well done, thats often my role on a project and it can make for a fun few days getting it all going.

The worst part was trying to work out how to make a patch, 2 months before the Vita was released and the documentation was pretty non-existent still.

And you'll still have the Trophy manager to look forward to ;-)

They are visiting Sony tomorrow, so I guess we'll either hear something after that, or not. :wink:

"Everything will be clearer after tomorrow".

All I could say there's been a couple of "last minute super panic mode" cause a couple of crashes but we sorted all out.
