This is a tutorial series that I've been working on and off for awhile. The goal of this series is to cover as much about programming various parts of the PS1 hardware as possible, using the PsyQ/Programmers Tool SDK or PSn00bSDK.
There isn't much covered in the series currently, but it has some extensive graphics tutorials that don't use libgs that should help anyone getting into PS1 programming have a better understanding of how the GPU works. Something I don't see being explained very well in other tutorials and example programs.
You can find my tutorial series as an SVN repository on my website. Check it at least once a month in case I manage to get a new chapter added to the series.

Hi, new guy here and I've just started looking into doing some programing for the Playstation.
Your tutorial really helped me getting started! Looking forward and hoping for more tutorials in this series!
BR!

These tutorials are great. I especially love the third one on covering textures and asm files. I didn't know just how efficient it was until now to include binary files as externals instead of headers - compilation is much faster; even with Psy-Q. I'm ready for the other tutorials when the time allows.

I've just made the tutorial series easier to access on my website a few weeks ago, as you no longer have to do a SVN login just to view it. The SVN repo is still up however, and is what I still use to sync stuff around more easily.
I should mention that the tutorial series has got some controller and CD-ROM chapters added, the latter of which needs revising however. Haven't really been good with keeping up with the forums lately.
