I'm happy to announce that the first version of the renderer library is now available. Full source is included.

As it stands, the renderer is not a complete plug-in solution for someone looking to create a game on PS2 Linux. However, I hope that others will adapt it to their needs. It contains sample code for DMA chain creation and double buffering on the EE, and transformation, lighting, clipping and backface culling on VU1 that will come in handy for anyone looking at 3D rendering on PS2.

The rendertest package contains a working example of how to render textured models using the library. The renderer supports Sparky's intmdloader format - check it out at the 'PS2 Conversion Utilities' project.

If you have any queries, feel free to post them in the forums at http://www.playstation2-linux.com/projects/render. I'll do my best to help out :)
