I highly doubt it, some people asked the same for Xbox 360.

No, its not possible

however, you can use an Xbox360 controller in FPSC on the PC, and there are programs to use a PS3 controller

Biff, the idea is entirely plausible as both the PS3 and computers have operating systems, but as vent says, it is not possible to do what you are asking.

Oh dont be so sure, you can change the operating system on PS3 and also the PS3 has been fully (illeagal) cracked and can do things that the PS3 is not suposed to do. You can do it but you need to mod your Ps3...

Here is some proof that the ps3 can be modded. Also garage games is known for making xbox and other console games. You can also get the dev kit to make your own with which ever console you want. I just recently read something in the fpsc newsletter of someone making a iphone game. On top of that I also saw that someone made a psp fpsc game on youtube, but take it as you would like. The point is anything made on the pc or mac or whatever system you are using to make your game can always be put on another console. That is how most games are made, but it may cost you a pretty penny to get what you want. Good luck and look around for the dev kits for what you want. Just to let you know the ps3 dev kit is around $10,500 in the US and ¤7,500 in Europe

I'm not disagreeing that the Ps3 can be modded or that, in theory, an FPSC game could be made to run on the PS3 - what I am saying is that, to the best of my knowledge, this has never been achieved. The PSP video, if memory serves, shows an FPSC game running on a PC which is then being streamed onto the PSP's display (a bit like cloud computing) - it may look like the PSP is running the game but it's only acting as a monitor.


Quote: "Oh dont be so sure, you can change the operating system on PS3 and also the PS3 has been fully (illeagal) cracked and can do things that the PS3 is not suposed to do. You can do it but you need to mod your Ps3..."


With regards to this specific statement - I agree that it is not impossible to run an FPSC game on a PS3 but broad statements such as "you can do it but you need to mod your Ps3" are, at best, speculative. I dare say you would need to do ALOT more than just modding your PS3 to run these games - otherwise I and many others would no doubt be exploiting this. Again, I'm not saying it cannot in theory be accomplished -of course it can- but has it been? No. Is it likely to be accomplished anytime soon? No.

Of course I'd be happy to be proven wrong on this but, to all intents and purposes, you cannot run FPSC games on a PS3. Would be nice if this were not the case, but it is. And if it isn't, prove it

It has been done, you can download any play station game and burn it with the right tools, you can also put any game that can be played on any windows pc and run it on any playstation concle, you just need to know how. search anything on downloading playstation games.or how to burn a playstation game, the same goes for xbox to.

becouse half the world dont make games, the ones that do make them for there own stuff, and people like us make them mainly for pc.

EDIT:

remember though, you would make much more money if you stuck to making pc games becouse the market is much larger.

That's ripping a PS3 game from a disc and burning it from an image (probably an ISO image) to another disc.
If it is true that we can burn exe's to disc and run on a PS3 then that pretty cool!
All I'm saying is that it just sound a bit farfetched.

It wouldn't work, for a start FPSC games cannot be run from a disc. And that is just the start of the reasons why it's not possible to simply copy it to a disc and run it.

AND let's not link to sites which tell you how to rip copyrighted games and play them on your ps3!

The error where it fails to write to the disc because it needs to unzip files and it can't do it to a disc.

unzip waht files? if you put you whole game to disc not in a zip file then it will work, you have to unzip the main game files

That's what I thought. So many people have had problems with running fpsc from disc on a PC let alone a PlayStation!
Thraxas does not LITERALLY mean un-zip from a compressed file, he means that you cannot run FPSC games from disc. Simple as that.

No I literally mean a zip file. FPSC zips up the levels when you build and unzips them when you play...

Build a game and check the levelbank folder of your built game. It's a password protected zip file. So again you cannot run fpsc from a disc.

i have a fiend that worked for Sony. and he also convert adult games that were ment for the pc to the PSX console without problems!!

I dont know how it works with FPSC. but FPSC is also a pc game,
so in theory it should work also. its a matter of converting i think.

to bad i did not see my friend al long time, otherwise i wouls ask him about this. ( i had this idea 2 years ago when i started FPSC)

Don't really know where to start here. The PC market - according to almost every analyst - is on the verge of collapse due to piracy. Even my game, Pioneering, has been pirated to hell and back Infinity Ward have lambasted the PC market, lamenting the number of pirated versions of CoD, etc, etc. True, some people do argue the concverse (particuarly when social/casual gaming is accounted for) but for our games (First person shooters) the market is far larger on consoles. Off the top of my head I remember reading that Modern Warfare 2 sold 3% of its total share on PC. And that isn't even the issue at hand!

This thread is about whether an FPSC game can run on a PS3. Thraxis is 300% right - thinking about the disc issue is just the start but it points to dozens of problems. First, your PS3 would need to be able to unzip your level files which I'm not convinced it can. Secondly, it would need to have Direct X - has microsoft ported this to their rival console yet? Or is that still something they limit to the PC or the DirectXbox? What about screen resolution? Memory? Or, as someone else asked earlier - can the PS3 even read .exe files?

Daniel, I think you're fighting a losing battle here. No one here doubts that piracy is possible on the PS3 or that certain systems can be emulated on consoles. In fact, I dare say that if FPSC games ever did run on the PC it would through a form of emulation - but emulation is a) exceptionally difficult and b) requires a system far more powerful than the one being emulated as emulation is a software based solution. 4mb of RAM (for example) requires far more than 4mb to to emulate - first you need the requried RAM to run the emulation software and then, on top of that, you need the original 4mb free. Of course the PS3 is a powerful system and I don't doubt it could run FPSC games but the process of accomplishing this would be long and very, very difficult. It would not be as simple as burning a game to a disc and running it. Can I suggest you check out the discussion centered around accomplishing FPSC on Xbox 360? I've not looked at it for a while but I remember that discussion underlining how difficult the process would be - and that system has an open development tool (XNA) to work from!

I don't mean to sound harsh and I hope that I don't - I'm just underlining my point because people new to this software (who might find this thread) need to understand its abilities and limitations. Is it theoretically possible to run an FPSC game on a modern console? Yes. Are we close to seeing this happen? As far as I am aware, no. Do I believe, from what I've seen, it will happen? Personally, no - though that is an opinion.

Again, not my intention to sound harsh but unless you can provide proof of an FPSC game running on a PS3 then you should stop saying it is possible.

well as far as people pirating your stuff im sorry to here this, that realy sucks, but I say this. get a program that makes it imposible to use unless you use the serial number you issue. then only make the game have so many install times, also make it to if they request a reset on the installs then you will reset it, but this will indeed slow down thease pirets. this is what iclone does, it works well.but as far as you saying there are zip files that the game depends on,well,, extract thease files before you put ther game to disc. This is how its done,

edit: to extract the files before you put the game to disc is
simply,
Quote: "mypassword"
put this in the extracting of the files then burn the game to disc, there is your tutt

there are already xbox contorler code to use xbox controllers, so if its possible to burn them to xbox then it might run on the xbox live as on xbox live you can run your own games. as far as playstion, ive seen it done but never have done it myself, as far as a fpsc, mabey not but im shure if we used darkbasic to impliment the extra code to run them on other systems then yes, i know for a fact it can be done. but should it? no. I think we should all stick to only pc. my intention here is not, should we put them to playstion, no, god no. by only intent is it can be done easily.

what was the problem, was there an error? if so what kind of disc did you use? I used a regular cd,it playes just fine, even saves. it must be your drive settings becouse I have no problems with it at all.

edit
i think i know why, did you delite the zip folder after you extracted the files, it might still be trying to read from the zip instead of the open files

Yeah. Hate to break this to you, but your the one that was complaining that I didn't give you a chance to explain yourself:

I didn't need your explanation, I was simply presenting you with a chance to give it since it seemed that that's what you were complaining about being deprived of.

Personally, I don't think you have a real explanation, and I don't think your email to Daniel was an explanatory note either, I think it was an apology letter, which is good enough anyway.

Wow, you need to chillax broseph. As a matter of fact, I'm disabled as well. I don't have ears, the lobes were folded over when I was born. I've had to live wearing a hearing aid my entire life. I am totally not joking. But that doesn't mean I use my disability as an excuse when someone's being retarded.

For the record, you shouldn't be offended by anything you see on the internet. EVER.
