Hey, I'll be updating INImaker one of these days, and I'd like to hear your ideas for new things. It's gotten over 1500 downloads so far, which is awesome, so I think it deserves an update for graphics and features :) This is what I have planned so far: - Option to generate ini files and...

Thank you, you're welcome. I got into Sopwith by playing the GP2X port, I think it's a perfect fit for handhelds. By the way, let me know if you have suggestions regarding the game's controls.

I ported SDL-Sopwith v1.7.1 by Simon Howard. Sopwith is a classic scrolling shoot 'em up developed in the early 1980s by the Canadian firm BMB Compuscience. Download Sopwith from the Wiz Archive The source code is in source.zip, included in the download. I removed unneeded things like...

Thanks! I've actually been tweaking the graphics for the past month, only I didn't have the time to finish everything until now. I read about your recent problems with Pdroms.de, glad to see it's sorted out :) And the dot gives me troubles too, I sometimes forget to type it in the login box...

Hey, time for a new release :) This one's for both Wiz and GP2X. Trap75 is a game like Jezzball, where you need to cover 75% of each level's space without getting your lines hit by the moving balls. New in 2.0: - nicer graphics and music - move the cursor slower by holding X - cursor leaves...

Of course there's a difference, the F-100 stick makes hard games even harder :P The PC version has Start Game binded to Options by the way, so it can't be played. Merry Christmas to you too, sorry my card will be late this year :D

This is what I use most everywhere, replace all font/font-family lines with this: font-family:Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;

In the heap, it's malloc'ed the usual way.

Contiguous reads doubled the speed, terrific :) And Notaz's mmuhack is brilliant, I get an extra 30 fps in 320x240 mode, and 8 fps in 240x320. But now tear runs at 170 fps, and no-tear runs at 88. I tried removing the inner loop and use macros like KungPhoo, but that actually makes it a little...

Great update Imerion, I think this is the most detailed game on the Wiz so far :) By the way, I noticed the .prg is compiled every time the game is run. It loads much faster if you do a check, like name=`basename $prg .prg` if [ ! -e $name.dcb ]; then bgdc $prg fi bgdi $name Thanks...

You open the screen as 320x240, and then just call this code crow_riot posted from libcastor: #define FBIO_MAGIC 'D' #define FBIO_LCD_CHANGE_CONTROL _IOW(FBIO_MAGIC, 90, unsigned int[2]) #define LCD_DIRECTION_ON_CMD 5 /* 320x240 */ #define LCD_DIRECTION_OFF_CMD 6 /* 240x320 */ unsigned int...

My similar code reduces performance from 140fps to 40fps (just like GPH's old SDL fix actually, haha). In my case there's also a bit of SDL overhead, but not much since I also tried this with libcastor and only gained 3 fps. I didn't play around with unrolling parts of it or using a Uint32 dst...

Sounds great, I can't wait to fire up the old 32 again over the winter break :) By the way, what is the advantage of using G++ instead of GCC, isn't OpenTyrian plain C? I heard about compiling C with G++ before, but I never knew that there was an actual advantage to it besides adopting a...

The form seems to be available only when you are logged out. Try it, it's not like the username of the uploader counts for anything, you have to type the author's name anyway. And is it OpenTyrian we're talking about here? :D Does it run fast enough with the SDL port, or did you GPify it a...

Most popular ported games are written in C or C++. You should try learning one of these languages: if they look too intimidating, start with a simpler language and work your way up (the general principles are the same, so programming practice in any language will be very helpful). Learn a...

I think the Top-5 Rated list will settle on the same 5 apps after a very short while. Considering how diverse and numerous Pandora apps will be, it won't be of much use except on the first visit. So maybe you should have a big "Getting Started" tab instead, that leads to the initial must-haves...

Here's my take on it. It's already coded in HTML/CSS, about 15kb all in all. The text title would of course be replaced with the nice Pandora logo. It seems usable zoomed out to 10cm, the screen is deceptively small due to its incredibly high resolution :) Feedback appreciated!

Sorry to grave dig, but this is obscure and related. Does anyone have the really old firmware files on hand? Around version 0.11 or 0.17 should do. Thanks!

Hi, As you may know Wiz prototypes don't hold their battery charge for more than a few days, even when not used at all. The question is whether the problem is in the hardware or only in the battery, in which case this could be fixed by using a new spare battery. Did anyone who has both...

Hi Skeezix, I'm wondering what bugs did you find in GPH SDL? Just curious about things I should avoid. Is it screen resolution stuff or more? Hatari running slow should make people all the more appreciative towards performance-tailored programs like your outcast, right on :)
