You probably need to make a small script like this: CODE #!/bin/sh ./cpufreq --freq 600 ./Program.gpe cd /usr/gp2x exec ./gp2xmenu Paste that in a new text file and save it as Script.gpe. Put it in the same folder as Program.gpe and cpufreq, and run it. Make sure you save it with a text...

A suggestion for future case revisions: make the shoulder buttons 50% longer so that they reach the case's corners, making them reachable without the need to bend your index fingers.

Hooray for dynamic linking! :) Do Vocamasters have a launcher, or are the poor students locked out of the fun?

Did they take the LED off the charging cable? It was useful to know when the Wiz finished charging, the LED turned red->orange->green, and then you knew the battery was at 100%. Anywho it takes mine more than ten hours to fully charge a depleted battery from a powered USB hub, but now I'm...

I wrote a post a short while ago about the map generation in this game. It's simple, but it works well and the levels it makes look interesting and different enough from one play to another. Now I'm off to make the zombies smarter :D

Update is now live, http://archive.gp2xwiz.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,30,48 I remembered some people complained about GP2X games using B as the sole fire button which caused it to get worn out, so besides smooth performance this update also allows you to shoot with A, X, and Y.

You should make a list of things you would like to see written about in the Wiki, I'm sure people will be happy to contribute :)

Here's what I use: CODE enum Buttons { BUTTON_UP, BUTTON_UPLEFT, BUTTON_LEFT, BUTTON_DOWNLEFT, BUTTON_DOWN, BUTTON_DOWNRIGHT, BUTTON_RIGHT, BUTTON_UPRIGHT, BUTTON_START, BUTTON_SELECT, BUTTON_L, BUTTON_R, BUTTON_A, BUTTON_B, BUTTON_X, BUTTON_Y, BUTTON_VOLUP...

The SD card seems to protrude less than 2mm, you would have a very tough time popping it out if it were in even deeper. I like the idea of Menu being isolated from the action buttons, it makes sense for a something that is ideally used for a single purpose (call the game's menu, implicitly...

Nice article, I'm surprised how many of those games I missed out on. I hope you guys will continue writing more of these features, they'd be something that stands out from all other news sites. One small correction: Quiest wrote TMP, not Quasist.

I just noticed you have the values of SCREEN_WIDTH and SCREEN_HEIGHT interchanged, the SDL screen is supposed to be 320x240 not 240x320.

The points grow exponentially when you clear multiple columns at a time, that's why :) I thought the antialiased fonts looked alright, do you find them a bit fuzzy?

It seems fine for me (Firmware 0.7.1, Wiz from November of last year) By the way, when you calibrate the touch screen from the settings menu, make sure you keep the stylus pressed on the white rectangles until they turn red, simply touching them and quickly letting them go will not do anything.

Try replacing SDL_HWSURFACE|SDL_DOUBLEBUF with SDL_SWSURFACE in your call to SDL_SetVideoMode. I know you already check the return value of SDL_SetVideoMode in case of an error, but perhaps the firmware's SDL reacts differently.

I voted Highly Offensive, because it looks lame and I want to see it replaced with something better, like the old logo for instance :) My apologies to the person who made it, but it looks too rigid and boring for my taste. And it does resemble the Iron Cross, which is to say the least unnecessary.

Looks like Puck2099 ported OpenJazz to the GP2X, and he's active in the Wiz scene as well :) PS: I just sent an update to Dodgin Diamond that uses 22050hz sound, 44100hz stuttered the game a bit. I should have played it a little more before uploading :rolleyes:

Dodgin' Diamond II is a vertical space shooter made by Juan J. Martínez. This port to the Wiz is based on Wild[Kyo]'s GP2X port. Download from the Wiz Archive Improvements in this port: - DD2X's 320x200 screen is vertically centered - added volume controls - normalized sound effects Have fun!

Thanks sbock. Good to see you on board the Wiz train :D

Thanks Shorty :) I wish I would have upgraded the firmware sooner, I thought the SDL stayed slow as in 0.3 so I was reluctant to release anything until it was sorted out.

Here are two more ports of my GP2X games, this time it's Trap75 and Pentominos. ----- Trap75 - Download from the archive Trap75 is a game much like Jezzball, where you need to cover at least 75% of each level's space without getting your lines hit by the balls. Hiscore table, nice smooth...
