    GP2X Previous Development Project

    Not sure if you're agreeing or disagreeing with me there, but FWIW, I completely agree with you. :) 3D graphics often look... wrong... for certain games and applications. I did not mean to be disparaging to the quality of 2D graphics with my comment. I only made the implicit comparison in my...

    GP2X Previous Development Project

    Nice portfolio, Sly! Myself, I am a computer science student who also tests server backup software for IBM. I don't have any strong ambitions with the GP2X as of yet, but I am very psyched about the open console model as a concept. I found out about the GP2X because I have a background in...

    Mp3 In Games?

    I believe what may be confusing some people about MIDI is the difference between the wavetable set (which is stored once, either somewhere in your system folder or on your sound card if you have a higher-end one) and the MIDI file that contains the instructions Prothall is referring to. The...

    Rewrite Limit

    I've heard several people, both on this forum and in countless others, refer to the limited number of erase/write operations that Flash ROM (like the NAND memory in the GP2X or the SD cards) can handle. I am familiar with the problem and why it happens. (Those of you who are not, check out this...

    Mips Vs Arm

    Having been forced to take a class in MIPS assembler, I can safely say this is the most intelligent thing I've heard in this entire thread. :lol: This is a close second. Really, the ingenuity of the coders and developers will almost always find new ways to overreach any limitation that it's...

    GP2X Gp2x And Interface And Other Standards

    Amen to that! It's not even that hard to implement, if done right... I wish I knew what made some developers not offer this feature, as it is the ultimate recourse of a gamer against a control scheme they don't agree with. (Referring to my preference of "O" for "OK" on the PS2, I can't tell you...

    GP2X Gp2x Joystick Actual Facts

    Hmmmm... interesting proposition. While I could see how some games would not be well-suited to benefit from this, I could also see how some games could. Actually, it reminds me of one of the features of the Xbox 360, where you can set certain common, global configurations, like whether you...

    Anybody Played Gish?, Ask For A Port!

    Oh, yeah! I love Gish! :D Physics games are fun! And I would be very interested in seeing a GP2X port... There would need to be some tradeoffs at some point, most likely, as Gish was built on the Torque 3D engine, though it seems to keep its power requirements fairly minimal. The main...

    GP2X Gp2x Joystick Actual Facts

    Balancing controls is a part of making a good game, regardless of the hardware it is running on. If a developer is too lazy to test and develop a good control scheme, it will show, whether the hardware returns two bits, one bit, or five bits when the stick is pushed. As you have shown yourself...

    GP2X Gp2x And Interface And Other Standards

    Your copious effort to document all the possible permutations of the control stick still amazes me, Dave. That said, I completely agree that setting some standards would be a good idea. It would help, of course, to know what standards the existing software from GPH uses, or if GPH is...

    Gp2x Or Xgp?

    Doing a comparison is a little hard at this point because there are so many unknowns about the XGP. Game Park hasn't been very forthcoming about it lately, and as with most things that we can only read about through translated material, there's a lot of misinformation floating around. There's...

    News From Gph (sigh)

    Just as an update, Craigix has given a tentative reply in the other thread about this topic: http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?showtopic=21584

    Is This True??

    Nah, I just like hearing myself talk. ;) AHEM! :lol:

    Is This True??

    The FAQ, incidentally, can be found here if you are not sufficiently good at navigating message boards to find its location in the General GP2X / XGP Talk forum. And speaking of that forum, that is really where this question should have been posted. This forum is for people talking about HOW...

    GP2X Gp2x Joystick Actual Facts

    Wow.... I didn't realize this was such a can of worms when I first came to this board. So, accepting those findings but just to clarify.... What is the advantage of having 8 discrete microswitches (as opposed to having 4 and inferring the diagonals) if only one can be activated at a time? It...
