I've never actually sat down and played Nethack for more than a few minutes out of boredom before, but i'm giving this one a go on the GP2X, it's a nice pick up and play game. I'm finding all the options a little overwhelming, but i'm sure i'll figure it all out eventually - great fun :)

You'll have to forgive me, I have no idea what it outputs to. (pretty new at this) The file output.txt is created in my game directory, but it's empty. I'll try that new line now though, see if it helps. Edit: output2.txt has logged a fair bit of information, but no mention of framerate -...

Ok, new problem. Someone kindly explained to me how to get the program to log FPS, so I can test how well the performance increase is. It greats the output.txt file, but it's empty, any ideas? I'd appreciate it if someone could just give me a link to a good bash script tutorial :)

For some reason Shocktroopers 1 + 2 don't dump - they have to create the files but after the dump they fail to initialise - they're rather big games mind (19.4mb, 28.5mb).

Oops, I used windows text editor, apparantly it has to be saved as a unix type file. I'll try that first :) EDIT: Worked, didn't need to alter the file, the script above works, it just needed to be saved as a UNIX type file. :)

I've been looking over a thread about how to use scripts, so I downloaded the cpu speed program, and set up this script: Can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong? I run the script and all I get is a black screen.

Well it's just standard pixel resizing isn't it? Nothing like bilinear or other smoother resizing methods (which would probably slow it down anyway)

What Dzz Said ^^ Having the game auto-scale down from a higher resolution just puts more of a strain on system resources, and slows things down. Unless the game is fairly simple, it's probably not a good idea. I supose it could be done post processing, but who'd want those kind of loading...

Some good ideas there, it'd be nice to get a program like that to save on battery life.

Have you considered a cash reward as an incentive to get someone on board? I know it's not the best idea, and it's probably last resort material, but it might attract some attention. You could simply run a donation appeal to the community so you can get this project off the ground, so it...

I absolutely can't wait for this game Sephnroth, glad to see you're sticking with it :D

Is XGP even out yet? If it isn't, well, best wait if you really want one. Being an early adopter of a handheld that hasn't proved it's success is pretty risky. I'll refrain from using the dreaded "G" word.

I have the exact same batteries, and my videos havn't locked up once :huh:

Heh, I only found it because I happened to remember looking over it recently ;)

This thread should answer your questions: http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?showtopic=28987 :)

There's nothing stopping the GP2X from becoming just as functional as the iPod. Nothing at all. Just a software barrier :)

I'd be willing to give it a try ;) :ph34r:

Is this the right place to post bugs? I've noticed only one that really effects gameplay, and that's sprite overlaying - they're in the wrong order in quite a few games, mostly noticable in RPGS like Robotrek for example. You'd have two objects, one further behind another, but that object's...

Awsome, I look forward to seeing some of them being used :) It's always something to consider I guess :) I'd love to be able to just go nuts with level design, from enemies to the overall feel, and explore what I could come up with. Sadly I have little GP2X programming experience at the...

Totally agree. I've had my unit for about a week or two now, and it already feels like it's been worth every penny. I use it everyday, and i've actually stopped playing my DS since I've had it. I'll go back to it, but i'm so overwhelmed with all the content I can play on my GP2X at the moment.
