I was thinking about the Challenge that gp32spain.com is running. I thought it was a good idea to reward coders who we all appreciate so much. I then saw the danger of many people setting many different challenges all with small rewards.

I think it would be a good idea if us a community had a discussion and maybe a vote on what we'd like to see made and then everybody who wanted to from this site and beyond could make a donation. This way, many people could give a little which would amount to quite alot.

more details of the challenge can be found here

What do people think??
 
I could donate some, like $10 for full speed SNES. Maybe a little bit more.

How about we all chip in a little for SNES?

yeah full speed with sound. About a third of the game is the music/sound fx. I would totally like a gamemaker program. Now that would be fun. There should be a Hardware contest, maybe a phone connection or extrenal modem connection. That would be nice im thinking of doing that but I cant write bios/programs. If someone could do that I could try to make an internet cable/phone cable that works
 
How does this work...If i put in 300$ for a snes emu and i want 90-100% speed with sound, save-states, framelimiter, frameskip etc, do i get the money back if that goal is not met?

I have no idea if it is possible to get 100% full speed snes emulation on the GP. To me its like magic that i can run snes at all on my GP as it is now (i have no idea how to programm:)). So I don´t wanna trow away alot of money if it is not possible...
 
Azures on the Money...full speed snes + sound on gp32 will need god to programing it : )
 
what about my amiga emu..i want that a lot more than snes...
i had an amiga...still have all my disk's...i think.

If you are going to put in a joint effort here we need to agree on the terms.
SNES:
Fullspeed with sound at FS 5 with savestates
Or?
 
snes emu full speed with sound at fs4 with a screen stretch option!! :)
We need to try and get as many people as possible to contribute ideas and then finally stump up the money....
If people take an active part in the debate over a community donation, they will be more likely to be willing to give money....
 
I'll put some $$$ towards the 68k core which helps both MAME and Mega Drive/Genesis speed! Although I gotta say those two GP32Spain challenges look the same... I think the top one is a more generic bet.

alright then fullspeed at f/s 3 or slower with sound and screen stretch. What about other features such as saves etc?
i dont think that screenstretch is really needed. it fills most of the screen as it is anyway.
