Team CodeMajic join Project Artemis!

ps2dragon; that logo is rather attractive. ;D

In regards to a "rewards" system, I might suggest collaborative bounties. The bounty system works like this:
1) A (non-exhaustive) list of important (wanted) features/bug fixes/what have you are compiled.
2) Project drivers decide what each of these might be worth. (E.G. "'Implement Python scripting' is worth $500USD")
3) Money is raised through donations.
4) Items are completed to satisfaction by volunteers.
5) ???
6) PROFIT!

That's a pretty good idea. BountySource would be a good, neutral way of keeping track of the funds, too.

[TomTuff]

good idea, i think we should make one

[Lazy Bastard]

Bleh, this thread got way off track, heh. I shall have to perform another condensation of the various topics of Artemis a little later.

Anyway, as Artemis is in need of an official logo, and I believe ps2dragon's has been the best so far, it is hereby (tentatively) the official Artemis logo

Any other logos submitted will be considered as well, and I will likely implement a "theme" system, whereby any set of graphics can be substituted for the default one, at a later date.

and I will likely implement a "theme" system

I don't think themes are a good idea. Since Artemis will be made resident, memory footprint should be kept at the minimum, otherwise game compatibility will suffer.

[Lazy Bastard]

There will be two ELFs: one for boot, the other will be launched and stay resident. Hence, the boot ELF can be as large as desired, with no issues.

[misfire]

Actually, there are three ELFs (or at least three files with executable code):
- cheat engine
- debugger
- boot loader

Inside the loader, the user decides whether to set up the engine and the debugger. So it is, for example, possible to use Artemis as a cheat device only.

[Lazy Bastard]

Ah, there you have it, from the core developer

[ps2dragon]

Ok, here's another revsion of the same logo. Let me know what you think.

[Lazy Bastard]

It's nice, but I prefer the original, actually.

ok, well whatever you guys want, I guess simplicity wins in this case. Let me know if you need anything else or want me to modify/change anything.

[Lazy Bastard]

OK; and thanks very much for the contribution.

Note that it's entirely possible that there's an even better version of the logo hidden in the depths of your mind; the original is just the best-suited thus far

[Lazy Bastard]

Hmm...since I didn't mention it in this thread, and as I haven't made a condensation thread yet (and thus this may be the thread of interest in Artemis at the moment), I should note that we now have a BountySource project, at http://artemis.bountysource.com/ . Sign up, and feel free to donate to any of the tasks (I'll be doing so next paycheck, though it might only be a little). Once we have a few decent bounties, and have an acceptable project put together there, I'll unveil it at PS2Dev.org, and likely pull some more developer assistance

[TomTuff]

u released it to ps2dev.org yet? cuz like u said, that will help quiate a bit :O

[cosmito]

How's the status of the remode debugger?
Will it be suited to debug ps2sdk projects?
