    Newb Help With Ac Power, Tv Out And Cradle Please

    I am still not having much luck with the GP2X cradle on the F200. I am turning on USB on the system menu and can get an external drive to work OK. If I run picodrive. with 2 of my 3 USB joypads I get no USB joypad detected in picodrive. My 3rd joypad does get detected. But if I load a ROM and...

    Play Asia And Customs?

    I was charged £34.95. UPS was the only delivery option. About £11 of the £35 was UPS duty handling charges.

    Firmware 3.0.0

    I recently upgraded my firmware to 3.0.0. On the front menu when I am navigating through the options, the icons change to a large square with lines across it. It looks really poor and unprofessional. Is it supposed to look like that ? It said the upgrade was successful. If the upgrade failed...

    How Do You Organise Your Files On Card?

    I keep things simple. 1 card per favourite movie, 1 card per emulator and 1 card for my absolute favourite classic games. Sometimes I even print out mini versions of the dvd or game boxes and put them in the card case ! I also use the autorun option so it's as close as possible to inserting an...

    Newb Help With Ac Power, Tv Out And Cradle Please

    Hello, I have just got my F200 and cradle and have similar problems. 1. Power supply wise. I have to power the cradle and use batteries of the F200. The cradle does not seem to power the F200. I don't have an F200 power supply so I am not sure if that would power the F200 and the cradle. 2. I...

    GP32 New to C/C++ & GP32 ? Love the ZX Spectrum ?

    I wish I tried games programming years ago ! Core game routines are coming along really well EXCEPT my rotating sprite routines – cos and sin functions don’t seem to work as expected and running the same FXE twice gives totally different results. Corrupted values rather than calculated values...

    GP32 New to C/C++ & GP32 ? Love the ZX Spectrum ?

    You may be in luck ! I am testing my sprite and core game routines using a JetPac clone ! No sound yet but it's staying fast so far. Trying to add lighting effects to the sprite handlers at the moment - not sure what that will do to the performance. I am trying to make Jetman's laser glow !

    GP32 New to C/C++ & GP32 ? Love the ZX Spectrum ?

    Hi, I really liked that game too - I used to play it on the Amstrad though. If you're interested then I'll do the coding if you can do the graphics !

    GP32 New to C/C++ & GP32 ? Love the ZX Spectrum ?

    I have good programming skills, but not in C or C++ ! I am also used to having a reliable, fully working, development environment set up for me and it being ready to go ! I didn't realise how lucky I was at college and work ! Spending hours searching the net for recommended files and advice is a...

    TV display possible ?

    Is there any way to hook up the GP32 to a regular TV ? It would be cool to watch a movie / play games on a big screen when on holiday.
