hank you very much for the try. I was blocked because of that hangs and don't make many changes in other features. I think I have some bugs with my toolchain with mallocs and closing files (that's why I have moved into fixed configuration, because the config file get unclosed...) I have some...

Hi! New update of the WIP, 7th attemp (Althought the executable shows WIP6 because I forgot to change it!) Just some little trys, CPC's RAM is now static (No more mallocs and deletes) and minior optimizations with the menu system (Don't use the "Save snapshot function... It's just trash for...

Well, just some stability fixes for testing. I have been loading dsk's and dsk's, touhing many configs from settings and exiting, re-runing the emu, and appears ok... but I want to know if someone has troubles... I think I have to revise with patience all the menu system. I hope I finally find...

Another recompilation with changes in the makefile. I hope it now becomes rock solid :ph34r: http://www.axis.org/usuarios/djkaos/files/CapriceGP2x.rar <<<---UPDATED Apr 26 2007 Feel free to stress the executable and comment here the results!!!! ;) Thnks!!!

The A500 games in CD32 disc are not in special formats for working from other media than floppies? For example, I found difficult to run A500 games (512K RAM, 800K floppy) under an A600 (2 Mb RAM, 1G hard disk) because the whole floppy image must be loaden into ram (or part of it) and the A500...

It's ok, thak you for the testing :) About the hangs, I have found some problems with endianness when reading data form the tape file in "word" blocks through a pointer... Maybe this could happend also in other parts of the menu or even the in the PSG code regarding those games with sound...

Strange, mode 2 was supposed to work :( I have seen mode 2 working nice in my own GP2x!!! What version string does appear at the first line of the boot screen? "W.I.P. 6 with VKeyboard!" Anyone more has tested the "fix try"?

I have made some profiling into Caprice and the problem is the CRTC video chip, it eats a 30% of the CPU, and the Z80 is below 15% I have made some little tries looking after DrZ80 to fit Caprice, but I have that the Z80 code modifies many other parts of the CPC directly, it has many work for...

Yeah, in some way, its normal... Caprice is very CPU hungry... It's very accurate and needs many CPU for rendering the grapichs in correct timings (It nearly emulates the catode tube ray tracing...) The only way is optimizing and/or "hacking" the emulation of video with the fewer impact in...

Yeah, I think I launched the idea of using the same virtual keyboard to generate the characters for the snapshot save option, but as I said I was giving more priority to some bugs at the menu. And because of that I have tried to fix those bugs and the one of the broken mode 2. Try this fix...

The virtual keyboard could be updated in that way, I will think about it ;) The DSK saving is nor supported, just because the disk image is loaded into memory, and all changes are made in memory. I would need to reverse all the DSK load function because Caprice doesn't have a function for...

There are also many changes in CAP32.CPP, the VDU_init function, and the VDU_init1 and VDU_init2, added for defining the upper and lower part of screen for even/odd frames. I also defined the VDU width to ignore the left and right border (CPC without border is 320 px, and this way the CRTC will...

Yes, I did that "hack" of half screens because it improved nice speed. On the other hand, I have adjusted the VDU to cut only what is seen in screen so the CRTC code skips the left and right border, getting more speed. Y also use the VDU to define the UP and DOWN zone for each frame, so the...

Oh mi God!! I didn't test mode 2 when I was playing with the 16 bit pixel renderer of the CRTC :( I'm very sorry!! I think I will fix this in the weekend, because I'm in a LAN party (lol 30 Km. from home!!) so I will have many time for a little coding instead of the home moving (Yes, I'm a...

the "-" (minus) key should work, it's between "0" and "₤" (Yes, abobe the "P"... doesn't work??)

May demos are very strict with timings, some need one exact kind of CRTC chip, also there are some that just work with CPC plus (Or look uglyer with CPC classic). Demos are a great way of knowing if emulation is VERY exact. Because many times demos do things that normal software should not...

Yeah, the way to press SHIFT and CONTROL looks a little confusing in the virtual keyboard till you get used. But when you master it, you can just type the name of the executable, then go to the left cursor and press it with "Y" button (with CONTROL). The CPC cursor will move to the start of the...

Forget about CDT files, they don't load. Data is nos readed correctly... But DSK files read OK, even the complicated HEXAGON and SPEEDLOCK protected ones. Have you got any background in CPCs or are really new to this system? When a DSK is loaded, you have to access them like under MSDOS... you...
