Interesting to learn more about where you came from as a programmer :) Pretty impressive!

Well, there's no objection from me personally, not if the time span between the beginning of that contest and the receipt of the entries into said contest that are getting included is not greater than the time span people had here. We should try to give Iorgy77 the benefit of the doubt here, I...

I can't wait to adventure in the dark and damp Uterus hell! That sounds like a game you could play for 9 months straight before getting bored with it.

OK, I tried out this new version of MAME and can verify all that people reported here. I can also verify that MAME is successfully trying to load its version of mmuhack.o, Open2X's insmod wrapper is intercepting this and is successfully loading the private Open2X-specific mmuhack. So, nothing...

I think it's a fantastic idea despite it being a prank.. I was fooled, too. Assuming the iPad has a external connector that would allow this, it would be great to have if you did own an iPad.

Open2x uses a wrapper in place of modprobe and insmod. It does this because it uses a newer kernel than GPH's and so the mmuhack.o that is included with games is incompatible with it. So, the wrapper script searches for mmuhack.o or mmuhack.ko in the parameters passed to it and replaces it...

I dunno about yours, but mine only overclocks to 800mhz. Also, the Wiz has no FPU, where did you hear that? There is a rumor that the 3D hardware supports floating point transformations but so little is known about it that it might not even really be used by the OpenGLES driver. EDIT: just...

GMU is an awesome music player. It has really great playlist functionality and looks cool, too. GPH always makes crappy software and I haven't even bothered to try out their music player on the Wiz because I know it is going to suck.

I'd be really interested in hearing how much runtime you are getting with the new one once you find out.

If you can at least get the serial stuff working, you can copy this GP2X version of GDB to your SD or NAND and use it to debug, it will work fine. When the message about missing pthread stuff pops up, just issue the command c for continue.

Submitted my entry for the Wiz :) (also emailed it just in case)

Just FYI for the threadgoers here, EvilDragon has sent me a Wiz to use for porting Open2X to the Wiz, which would include integrating GMenu2X. A lot of people here might not be aware of this, but GMenu2X is integrated into the NAND/OS in Open2X for the GP2X and is very customized and loads...

Why are you worried about saving cycles in a function that should really only be used once each time your game initializes or a specific level is loaded? Here, you are worried about saving a few cycles (literally less than 10 cycles) in a function that probably spends tens of thousands loading...

Another good tip when soldering DIP ICs like this is, instead of soldering it directly to the board like the first post's picture shows, you instead solder a DIP socket and just insert the IC into the socket. That way you can flip it if you make a mistake with the orientation or you can replace...

If, by chance, you have briefly tried soldering in the past and decided that soldering is overly difficult, you should try it with a good soldering iron with a proper tip and heat controls set to the proper temperature. Also make sure you scrub the PCB first with some scotchbrite. You will...

For now, I am using the USB serial capability and that allows me to run programs directly and see their output and even use the precompiled gdb that you can find on the gp2x side of the file archives (it is compatible with Wiz). Unfortunately, getting USB networking working was not possible with...

The Wiz is like the GP2X and treats the diagonals as separate buttons. So, if you were to somehow hit the UPLEFT diagonal perfectly from a resting position it would generate one event, a JOYBUTTONDOWN event of that UPLEFT diagonal, not the combined directions UP+LEFT. If you want to support...

Man this thing is limited! I guess you could make a game where a bunch of bytes are displayed vertically and you must place the correct parity bit for each byte along the top row, one after the other, as quickly as possible.

Thanks for the translation efforts, very nicely done and interesting.
