    Overclocking Test On An Cortex A8 Processor

    But should it be considered overvolting? The way I interpret the datasheet (and I could very well be totally wrong), the different modes are not really related to each other (i.e. OPP5 is Not OPP3 on steroids), they are more like the gears of a car and unless you throw some nitro (change the...

    Frying An Arm Chip

    There is one thing that has bothered me. It has been said that you won't be able to change OPP by hand, that probably means that it will ship set at OPP3. This means that to reach the advertised 600Mhz you would need to overclock. (And this is outside TI's spec, so there is no guarantee it will...

    Frying An Arm Chip

    I sort of remember some discussions about PXA210/250 (Early XScale) based devices haveing some overheating problems, when overclocked and placed in direct sunlight (For use as a gps navigator in a car, as an example). So I looked up the datasheet for it...

    Ok I Am A Noob. How Can I Contribute To Development Games Software And

    Yes, they did start as a simple idea, but the step between idea to implementation is huge and requires you to understand the language you want to implement it in. A book which featured a quake style project as a beginner tutorial would probably be massive and it would devote half of the book to...

    Entities / Animations / Sprites

    In my engine I load animations from a file, store them as pointers to an animation struct in an std::vector in what I call a game scene. This way you can have one generic animation used by a lot of different objects. Especially if your animation data contain relative x-y coordinates, i.e. your...

    In Compiler and debugger, how does your Toolchain tab look? Dose it look somewhat like this? or are the text fields just blank? What file did you download to install codeblocks? Was it something like codeblocks-8.02mingw-setup.exe ? Or didn't it have the mingw part in the filename? If it did...

    Ok I Am A Noob. How Can I Contribute To Development Games Software And

    Well, it should have asked you if you wanted to include the new empty file into your project when you tried to create it. After you had decided on the name and saved it, a box popped up, asking you to which 'targets' the new file should belong to. You had two boxes which you could check a couple...

    Ok I Am A Noob. How Can I Contribute To Development Games Software And

    You just create a new empty file (File -> new -> Empty file or just click the new file icon located right under the file menu ) Now it will ask you to name the file, name it something like myfistapp.cpp or the all time favorite main.cpp :) And there you go.

    Gp32/gp2X/wiz/dingoo Coding Competition

    I think the multi platform bonus is a good thing and it sort of caters to the community feel of the competition. (Encourages to release to a greater number of people within the homebrew sceen). Most games will probably (wild guesswork here) not have a too complex control scheme, so I don't...

    Here Is What Will Be Happening.

    I don't mind the look of the rev 2 case and if these cases are even slightly better looking than those, it's O.K by me. So sign me up!

    DELETED

    well, Craig posted another twitter: "We might go with some of these cases. They are not perfect, but I've no doubt many people will not care as long as the controls work."

    Android Multi-Touch

    This got me thinking, for very specific applications, some sort of multi-touch (or atleast dual-touch :) ) emulation should be possible, although I'm not sure of how usable it would be. Something like looking at the x/y coords and if a sudden 'larger than normal' change occurs it could signify a...

    Pandora Power Accessory

    If all else fails, he could always sell the hot chickens that he attracts to kfc to afford some new batteries ;)

    What Games Will People Be Trying First?

    First all the homebrew available. Then my own creations. After that some Quake (I-III) (If online play is supported, how about a "pandora is released: The tournament" :) ). And last dosbox with some commander keen (ep 4-6).

    Wireless Electricity And The Pandora2

    I started searching for information on how em radiation works after my last post. (especially how receivers interact with the signal, and how the signal is affected) I haven't found the answer I was looking for, or I might have but not understood it. But I did come across this...

    Wireless Electricity And The Pandora2

    Won't such a device weaken the strength/quality of the signal? (And if so, isn't that more or less like sabotage/stealing, well unless it's yours to begin with :) )
