    Can I Still Buy A New Gp2x ?

    I mostly lurk on this forum, but hey, I have a spare F100 I could sell. It's pretty much as new, was never used except once or twice - as it was bought for a project that never happened. I have the box and all its accessories. console, 4xGP2x batteries, TV-out adaptor, and I'm sure I have a 2gb...

    Opentyrian V0.3

    QUOTE Does anyone know of other PC games that are as good as Tyrian? Yeah of course! A few would be Major Stryker and Raptor, in the same genre - but there's loads of old Dos games out there that would be great to have on the Gp2x. Tyrian though is probably the best, and I'm glad you guys have...

    Pandora's Design

    Weird... My first reaction to this design was "eww what is that?" Then I was reading on this thread, I saw the full render, and was like "mmh, all those expansion connectors". Then I thought about the controls again, and the clamshell design, and it actually made sense. At this stage, I think...

    Opentyrian2x Alpha Released!

    I have an icon buried somewhere too, I converted from the original. This release is really fast - so yeah, in game menu + speed settings. The original was scaled to a 4:3 screen, of course that was on a crt.. so it probably just scanned differently or something. Sound, sounds great still.

    Opentyrian2x Alpha Released!

    In the original game you could bring up a menu in the middle of a level, and change details settings from there, and even the game speed, sound levels, exit to main menu etc. Also I discovered on the last release that the tyrian does exit cleanly, if you remove the second last line of the...

    Opentyrian2x Alpha Released!

    I'll have to test more, I just remembered I had a corrupted write to my SD (from my computer) round about the same time as I was testing this. I didn't catch on immediately - might be related. I'll use a fresh Sd too, just in case. As to stutters, audio thread definitely sounds suspect. I'm...

    Opentyrian2x Alpha Released!

    Wow! This is fairly nippy now! In fact almost faster than I can handle. Next step, enable game speed modes :). Also I noticed that in the menus, it seems to detect key presses too fast, as in it can be difficult to select what you want - and in game using sidekicks it seems to be a bit too...

    Opentyrian2x Alpha Released!

    Wow amazing, it'll be great with a bit of polishing. I didn't even know there was an open tyrian engine! Great work by Kalimerou in bringing us this classic at better than dosbox speeds!

    Xbak An Engine For Betrayal At Krondor

    Oh! Now this is something to look forward to! I also have the original stashed somewhere. I can't remember when I last had a PC that ran it though. Anyway, good luck Pickle, I'll definitely be putting this on my Gp2x.

    Our New Machine, Pandora

    http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/p..._Parametric_Tab In case anyone was wondering... Umm so if the Soc hasn't been chosen how does this have any chance of being released before next summer? I guess you could do a pcb and casing in four months?? I'm not worried, the MMsp2+ will suffice...

    Craigix Discloses Information On New Gp2x?

    QUOTE Apart from Magiceyes didn't do the Linux port for the MMSP2, and don't currently have a port for the MMSP2+. I'm misinforming again. I thought they offered linux with the devkit for the mmsp2? Well its better than other offering I've seen... But its cheap right - thats the main thing.

    Craigix Discloses Information On New Gp2x?

    I'm just going to make a wild guess here and say that the MMsp2+ has been selected because; 1. It has enough features to make a decent 2d and 3d console (Who cares how many bazillion triangles the psp can render, 1m is plenty to do cool stuff - see psx) 2. Its cheap. I would guess at either a...

    Craigix Discloses Information On New Gp2x?

    ...If the keyboard is to be used on the go, it has to be the thick part, otherwise the console will be too inclined to tippled out of your hand (what fun!). I can't see that being too much a problem for the shoulder buttons, and then you would stick all the connectors on the base.

    Craigix Discloses Information On New Gp2x?

    Well I think it was sort of there's no cpu dedicated fpu, but there is an on chip programmable thingy that can do FP calculations. Squidge seemed to think it could be useful, exophase was 'sceptical'. So it sounds like a puzzle ball for programmers. There isn't an actual FPU on the MMSP2+, I...
