What is InLink ?

    InLink has been developed to ease homebrew coding on PlayStation 2 and make the most of the PS2 Ethernet adapter available from Sony.

    It is a Win32 client which allows you to download PS2 executables (.ELF & .IRX) from your PC box to the PS2 through Ethernet (the same kind of feature as provided by napLink through USB).

    It works with Pukklink PS2 server side software which you can freely download from :
http://ps2dev.livemedia.com.au


We would like to thank especially :
  • |pukko| who made a very nice work with Pukklink.
  • adresd who was the perfect Beta Tester.
  • napalm crew who paved the way with wonderful napLink tool.
  • All The EFNET #ps2dev crew for their support, apart Jules^.

    If you have any bug report / suggestion / feedback, feel free to send a mail to
LongChair@hotmail.com

    We will try to maintain this tool as much as possible and adapt it to your needs.
Have nice c0ding using In-Link !

This is the pukklink v1.0.0 compatible new client version. This new version includes all the brand new available features of pukklink and some more InLink features.

The package to download includes everything needed.




New Features included are :

New pukklink features:

  • PS2 Power OFF
  • Exception redirect to Screen/Log
  • Byte ordering now network standard, so Mac or Amiga clients can be made

Inlink new features

  • Video preview included.
  • Fixed all requests from users.
  • File modes now ok, including O_EXCL.
  • And much more ...



BugFixes

  • Implement byteswap for pukklink 1.0 => Done in 1.3.0 (sg2 Apr 18, 2003)
  • When opening files on the host, an error shuld be returned if the file doest exist and the O_CREAT flag isnt specified. atm it just creates the file anyway. (this is handled properly by pksh, so should be a simple fix) => Done in 1.3.0 (sg2 Apr 18, 2003)
  • Im not sure if the O_EXCL flag (0x800) works on the host with InLink as files are always created anyway, but it works fine in pksh, so u might just want to check that as u update the bit from '1)' => Done in 1.3.2 (long Apr 22, 2003)
  • When using the 'run' command, have the file open dialog remember the last executed filename and supply it in the filename edit box without having to select it again (similar to how naplink does it) => Done in 1.3.0 (sg2 Apr 18, 2003)
  • Auto conversion of CRLF. if i do a printf("test\n") it will not goto the next line. it just prints a block character. atm u have to do printf("test\r\n") to make it goto the next line properly. => Done in 1.3.0 (long Apr 22, 2003)
  • Huge logs will crash logbox => Done in 1.3.0 (long Apr 22, 2003)
  • Auto bring to front when executing elf files => Done in 1.3.0 (long Apr 22, 2003)
  • Wont crash when running video version without a video capture => Done in 1.3.0 (sg Apr 20, 2003)

Some people noticed some troubles in running InLink when installed.



This package is the same as initial version but with full components package.


It seems that on some machines, InLink wont start.

This is due to missing components which should be in standard and which are obvioulsy not. We have made another package of the same Beta version including all set the components

If you are facing that kind of problem then get this version of the setup. Otherwise initial setup is fine.

  • InLink allows you to send files to the PS2 when Pukklink runs on the PS2 side.
  • Auto Reset feature is embedded to reset PS2 before sending a new ELF file when console is already running an ELF
  • InLink allows you to associate .ELF and .IRX files to InLink, so that when you double click a .ELF / .IRX, it gets automagically sent to the PS2 (after auto-reset when required). This feature is available in Setting within the application : click the "Assign ELF & IRX to In-Link" button.
  • Network settings to specify both PS2 & PC IP addresses.
  • InLink can be DDE driven by itself, so that only one instance of Inlink runs and handles all user ELF execution requests. This feature allows you to invoke InLink from your makefile or build tool as a post link step, while InLink is already running. The new instance will ask the old one to execute the ELF and will stop.
  • Full Log Display thru printf support from PS2 side.
  • Full File IO Support thru standard file routines on "host:". This allows PS2 executables to load IRXes, files etc. in the very same way as napLink.
