+# Trying on real HW
+
+If you have a real PSX, a cart flashed with [Unirom](https://github.com/JonathanDotCel/unirom8_bootdisc_and_firmware_for_ps1) and a [Serial/USB cable](https://unirom.github.io/serial_psx_cable/), you can upload the demo to the PSX memory with [NOTpsxserial](https://github.com/JonathanDotCel/NOTPSXSerial).  
+
+The engine can use [overlays](https://github.com/JaberwockySeamonstah/PSXOverlayExample/) to load data in the psx memory, so as opposed to a 'classic' project where you can just load the psx-exe in ram, we first have to load the data to a specific address, then load the exe.  
+
+First, comment out line 28 in `main.c`, so that the PSX won't look for the data on a CD :
+```c
+// #define USECD
+```
+The address we have to load the data to is defined by the 'load_all_overlays_here' symbol in `main.map`.  
+The provided `ovly_upload_helper.sh` script takes care of finding that address depending on the ps-exe name.  
+Thus, to load `Overlay.lvl1` and `main.ps-exe` in the psx ram, use :  
+```bash
+./ovly_upload_helper.sh Overlay.lvl1 main.ps-exe /dev/ttyUSB0
+```
